Trask and Mayfield to split reps for Bucs

5/31/2023

0 Comments

 
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be under the microscope this offseason as they determine who will start at quarterback come September. Kyle Trask and Baker Mayfield will be splitting reps for most of the summer. Head coach Todd Bowles discusses the process.

"It's constant analysis from now up until we name a starter."

  • Joe Burrow is due a lucrative contract extension any day now, but the numbers are still being worked out. Cincinnati Bengals director of player personnel Duke Tobin says he doesn't know how it'll end up, but that it's going to be big. We know this.

"Joe Burrow will be paid well and he's earned it..

He's great to work with and we know we'll get a deal worked out" ~ Duke Tobin #PMSLive pic.twitter.com/nPoQHckHh5

  • As the Cleveland Browns get ready for Year Two with QB Deshaun Watson (after a small sample-size from Year One), head coach Kevin Stefanski says Watson is on track to improve from 2022. "I would just tell you he's done a really nice job throughout this entire offseason of being diligent about understanding the playbook, understanding his teammates every single day. There are always going to be things that you want to get back and do a little bit differently. That's no different than every player at every position, but he's right where he needs to be."
    • On possibly acquiring WR DeAndre Hopkins? Watson says, "He's always been a brother of mine since I was coming out of high school. Our connection, our relationship has always been great. And I know there's a lot of things swirling in the media about him possibly coming to Cleveland. For me, my answer to that is, of course we'd love to have him."
  • The Miami Dolphins were noticeably better with wide receiver Tyreek Hill in 2022, and he believes QB Tua Tagovailoa will continue to get even better in 2023. "Having Tua at quarterback and having the offensive guru we have in our head coach is wonderful. Having those weapons at his disposal, he's going to go crazy."
  • New York Giants rookie center John Michael Schmitz practices the "dead snap" technique of snapping the ball to the QB, and while he has stated that he'll change his way of doing things if QB Daniel Jones prefers otherwise, Jones says, "As long as it gets back to me."

Steelers extend backup Mitch Trubisky

5/18/2023

Picture

The Pittsburgh Steelers signed backup QB Mitch Trubisky to a two-year contract extension. General Manager Omar Khan announced a deal was close on the Pat McAfee Show, and a confirmed deal was announced shortly thereafter.

Details: It’s a 2-year extension for Mitch Trubisky that also lowers the QB’s cap number for the 2023 season (previously $10M). The two sides have agreed, as Omar Khan said on @PatMcAfeeShow. https://t.co/LdE6gNvY3J

— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) May 18, 2023
Trubisky started for the Steelers for a short time before the team handed the keys to Kenny Pickett, who will be the expected starter in 2023. Trubisky is a solid backup who can win you a game or two if needed, but probably isn't consistent enough to be a starter in the NFL.

Pittsburgh also re-signed third-stringer Mason Rudolph earlier this week, giving Pickett a strong sense of continuity in the quarterback room for September.

more qb news:

  • The Indianapolis Colts picked QB Anthony Richardson with the No. 4 pick in this year's draft, and he's impressed the organization thus far. Including QB Gardner Minshew. "He's making the right checks, doing that kind of stuff. And that's how you kind of gradually earn respect, and, eventually, earn that kind of leadership spot. I think he's coming out with a great attitude, very humble, willing to learn, willing to admit he's wrong. Those are all very important things in the process of getting better."
  • Matt Ryan recently inked a new broadcasting deal with CBS, but he isn't officially retiring. Ryan says he has learned not to "shut any doors" when it comes to the NFL and has no plans to retire as of right now. Translation: He gets $12 million from the Colts for not playing.

Former #Falcons and #Colts QB Matt Ryan to ⁦@SiriusXMNFL⁩ on possible return: “All the stars would have to (align). I've just learned, at least during my experience in the 15 years I've played, to just not shut any doors.”

  • Orlando Brown will be protecting a new quarterback in 2023, and so far, he's a fan of Joe Burrow. "He's just cool. Very easy to talk to. Very personable. Very much himself around every single setting that I've been around. Friends, people on the team, whatever it is. As a man, it's easy to respect another man like that. When you've got a quarterback like that, the sky's the limit."
  • Josh McCown has been a strong presence in the Carolina Panthers' coaching rooms as of late, attending prospects' Pro Days and working directly with the QB room. McCown said his main job right now is to translate rookie QB Bryce Young's skillset to the NFL.
    • The Panthers released QB Jacob Eason.

Panthers QB coach Josh McCown on Bryce Young's footwork: "He has a playmaking capacity to him that's special to his game, and we want to honor that. But at the NFL, we have to help him mold what he does best to the NFL. That's a fun process."

Texans' owner says he didn't pressure pick of CJ Stroud

5/9/2023

0 Comments

 
Picture

The Houston Texans picked Ohio State quarterback CJ Stroud with the second overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft; we know this. What is puzzling is that the team fleeced everyone into thinking they weren't taking a quarterback - so much so that several mock drafts as early as two weeks before had the team going defense at No. 2. Texans owner Cal McNair insisted that he had no influence on the pick of Stroud. "Hannah and I don't make the picks," McNair said at the team's charity golf event.

#Texans owner Cal McNair makes it adamantly clear on the draft that “Hannah and I don’t make the picks. We ll make it clear there.”

— DJ Bien-Aime (@Djbienaime) May 8, 2023
"We have a great group of scouts led by Nick [Caserio] and James Lippert," McNair continued, "and they did a lot of work on the draft board, and then they followed that on draft day, and they moved up when they saw the value was there and moved back."

Houston, famously, picked Stroud at No. 2 and then traded up to take Alabama defensive end Will Anderson Jr. The Texans are certainly doing everything they can to improve their roster, which has been one of the weakest in the NFL for the past few seasons.

I, personally, love the presence of new head coach DeMeco Ryans and think he can make a huge impact on trying to change the course of the franchise. It probably won't be this year, or even next, but they definitely have the ability to slowly get better with time.

more Qb news:

  • The Arizona Cardinals selected Houston QB Clayton Tune in the fifth round, but he thinks he's the best QB prospect in this year's class. "If you look at my body of work, the effect that I have on my team that I play on, I elevate everyone around me. I'm a natural leader, people follow me and see the work that I'm putting in and the mindset that I have, and they want to follow suit. I have that no-flinch mentality when things get tough." That's some confidence. Maybe it'll work in his favor - starter Kyler Murray may miss the first few weeks of the season while he recovers from a torn ACL. Could Tune get a chance to fill in?
  • The Indianapolis Colts got to see their rookie QB in action during rookie minicamp. New head coach Shane Steichen said he's impressed with Anthony Richardson so far. "He's come in every day attacking this thing like a pro. And we just continue to be consistent with it every single day."
  • Chicago Bears QB Justin Fields returned to Ohio State this weekend to graduate. He earned a degree in consumer and family financial services.
  • After a report surfaced over the weekend that the Washington Commanders looked into signing retired QB Andrew Luck in 2022, the Colts are looking into whether any tampering occurred. Owner Jim Irsay tweeted Sunday night to warn that that could be the case.
  • Trevor Siemian is the new backup QB for the Cincinnati Bengals. When asked why he chose Cincy, he said it was the best fit for him.

Bengals QB Trevor Siemian on why he signed with Cincy: "I just think I just wanted to find a good fit. Somewhere I can come in and contribute. This checked all those boxes."

— Ben Baby (@Ben_Baby) May 8, 2023
  • The New Orleans Saints picked QB Jake Haener in the fourth-round of the draft. How come? Because he reminded GM Jeff Ireland of Drew Brees. No, seriously. "I was just really impressed with the person, how he plays. He's had several fourth-quarter comebacks. He does kind of remind you or there's some similarities to No. 9."
  • Dak Prescott has a new face in his wide receiver room in Brandin Cooks. He's looking forward to working with the former Texans receiver, and likes what he's seen of him so far. "The moment that guy showed up, just watching him in workouts and how he carries himself from drill-to-drill, what he does pre-workout and post-workout to take care of his body to have that speed."
    • Former Elon quarterback Matthew McKay will throw at Dallas Cowboys rookie minicamp.

more QB news:

  • The San Francisco 49ers signed QB Brandon Allen.
  • Los Angeles Chargers GM Tom Telesco has repeatedly said there is "no timetable" on a roster for star QB Justin Herbert and Herbert himself has said that all negotiations will likely remain private. Telesco isn't giving an update on numbers, but mentioned that no QB's deal (which points to the recent signings of Jalen Hurts and Lamar Jackson) will be a blueprint for Herbert's eventual pay day. "We'll cherry-pick some things out of that contract that we like. The agent will cherry-pick some things out of that contract that he likes. In the end, we'll get to a compromise at some point, something that works for everybody."
  • With the 69th (nice) pick in the draft, the Houston Texans picked Houston running back Tank Dell. The reason for this? Because CJ Stroud told them to, according to Dell.

CJ Stroud and Tank Dell's relationship goes back to the NFL combine.

  • The Cincinnati Bengals signed QB Trevor Siemian to a one-year deal.
  • While the team did draft QB Will Levis in this year's draft, Ryan Tannehill is still the presumed starter (unless something changes). Tannehill is healthy now, after having an injured ankle and is happy to still be in Tennessee. "You take advantage of each and every day and try to grow as a player every day that you get the opportunity to do that and you have to progress and you have to make plays when it comes down to it."

The Carolina Panthers are wrapping up their private visits with the top 2023 quarterback prospects. Ohio State's CJ Stroud and Kentucky's Will Levis will visit with the team next week.

The #Panthers will bring in Will Levis and CJ Stroud for top 30 visits on Tuesday. The team is *trying* to keep an open mind until they get through all visits and then will begin finalizing a plan for the #NFLDraft #KeepPounding pic.twitter.com/JCjwKNOTGg

— Bridget Condon (@BridgetCondon_) April 13, 2023

The Panthers have also met with Florida's Anthony Richardson and Bryce Young from Alabama and have attended all of the top prospects' Pro Days.

Carolina will have their choie of quarterbacks with the first pick in the 2023 NFL Draft in two weeks. Young is currently the favorite, but we all know it's #lyingseason.

more qb news:

  • With the Aaron Rodgers trade still on standby, it leaves everyone wondering exactly what the Green Bay Packers are asking in return. Apparently, they're still holding onto getting a first-round pick in 2024. The New York Jets may not be in on that gamble, considering Rodgers may not even be playing in '24.
  • The NFL and NFLPA approved a QB-specific helmet designed to cut down on concussions. The helmet is designed to protect the part of the head that QBs hit on the ground, which was responsible for about half the concussions suffered by QBs. "This helmet performs better in laboratory testing than any helmets we have ever seen for these sorts of impacts."
  • QB prospect Anthony Richardson wrote a piece for The Player's Tribune, which is worth a read. In it, he addresses his critics: "I know the things people are picking apart. People talk about whether I can be accurate. They say I don't have touch. They say I can't throw short. They say a lot of things. All I gotta say is: Watch how hard I work."
  • Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes was named one of Time's Most Influential People of 2023.
  • The saga continues. Despite many thinking the arrival of WR Odell Beckham Jr. to the Baltimore Ravens would be a slam dunk to QB Lamar Jackson either playing on the franchise tag or signing a long-term deal with the team in 2023, Beckham says he was given no assurances to Jackson remaining on the team. "My thoughts would be that he would be here."
  • The New England Patriots signed QB Trace McSorley to a one-year contract. McSorley is familiar with new Pats OC Bill O'Brien.
  • The Arizona Cardinals tried out QB Jeff Driskel for some reason.
  • Dorian Thompson-Robinson has visited the Cincinnati Bengals, Los Angeles Chargers, Cleveland Browns, San Francisco 49ers, Las Vegas Raiders, and Philadelphia Eagles. Thompson-Robinson is expected to be a late-round pick.

The New York Jets are supposed to sign Aaron Rodgers eventually, but we're still waiting. As things stand right now, Rodgers has said he intends to be shipped off to New Jersey, but... we're still waiting.

As things stand right now, Rodgers worked out with former and future teammate Allen Lazard recently, who was on Rodgers' rumored 'list' of players he wanted the Jets to sign before he came aboard.

We all saw Jones scream on the sideline many times, frustrated. As he had a right to when you make your defensive coordinator your offensive coordinator (?). Jones wasn't bad his rookie season and then went through a dramatic second year as a pawn in the Matt Patricia experiment.

I know Belichick is controlling, but he's not dumb. Let Jones have another year with an actual OC before you ship him off elsewhere.

Speaking of, a report also surfaced on Tuesday that Belichick shopped Jones to teams including Washington, Tennessee and Vegas. I'm not so sure about that.

The Kansas City Chiefs are Super Bowl Champions. Again. And Patrick Mahomes is Super Bowl MVP. Again.

After winning the league's Most Valuable Player Award on Thursday, Mahomes is the first player to win both in the same season since 1999. He's also the first regular-season passing yards leader to win the Super Bowl.

Mahomes completed 21 of 27 passes for 182 yards and three touchdowns. On a bum ankle. And added an additional 44 yards rushing.

  • The Green Bay Packers are anxiously awaiting quarterback Aaron Rodgers' decision on his future so they can adequately plan for the position.

"Me being in the huddle with the [New Orleans] Saints, I always felt like he was one or two plays ahead of the defensive coordinator. Where I've been in other huddles where the offensive coordinator is one or two plays behind the defensive coordinator. But it's hard to figure out Sean.

Lamar speaks about his injury

Lamar Jackson finally broke his silence to address his knee issue that's been plaguing him all season.

Unwritten in this tweet is that Jackson doesn't sound like he'll be back anytime should, should the Baltimore Ravens advance to the next round.

Jackson was not present at Ravens practice on Thursday. Tyler Huntley appears to be in line to be the starter for Baltimore this weekend; he threw during Thursday's session, something he didn't do last week.

Thank you everyone for your support and concerns regarding my injuries. I want to give you all an update as I am in the recovery process. I’ve suffered a PCL grade 2 sprain on the borderline of a strain 3. There is still inflammation surrounding my knee and my knee

— Lamar Jackson (@Lj_era8) January 12, 2023

more Qb news:

  • When I think of Joe Burrow, I think of one word: confidence. Confidence can sometimes be mistaken for arrogance, the vibe Burrow sometimes gives off (primarily to opposing fans). However, Burrow says you need to be a little arrogant sometimes. "You can't go out there scared in the moment. You have to be a little arrogant to go out there in that moment and make plays you need to make. In those moments is where I kind of make my best plays."
  • San Francisco 49ers QB Brock Purdy has had a storybook start to his rookie year - coming in for Jimmy Garoppolo when he broke his foot and being able to keep it rolling despite never playing in the NFL before. Purdy says he's not thinking about that and is focused on their next opponent, knowing they'll go home if they don't win. "Yes, it's the playoffs, but for myself, I've got to do my job. I'm not trying to think about this storybook ending or anything like that."
    • Brock Purdy was named the NFL offensive rookie of the month for the month of December.
  • As we all assumed, the Las Vegas Raiders will begin looking at trade options for quarterback Derek Carr. The team is under a time crunch, as Carr is owed a lump sum of $40.4 million if he's still on the team on February 15th. Another thing to keep in mind - Carr has a no-trade clause in his contract, meaning he'll have to approve the team and location before being traded. Jim Irsay is salivating at the mouth.

Sources: The #Raiders will begin the process of evaluating the trade market for QB Derek Carr, as they prepare for a decision on their QB for the future.

With Tua Tagovailoa remaining in the NFL's concussion protocol, the Miami Dolphins are preparing to start rookie QB Skylar Thompson in the Wild Card round against the Buffalo Bills.

more Qb news:

  • Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was not at practice on Wednesday, putting his status for the Wild Card round in doubt. Backup Tyler Huntley was not throwing at practice, which drove the team to start Anthony Brown against the Cincinnati Bengals last week. So it's a real possibility we could see the same this week. And that's not exactly a good thing.
    • Huntley was listed as a limited participant.

Still no Lamar Jackson (knee) at practice, and Tyler Huntley (right shoulder) was mostly going through the motions in warmups. Didn’t see him attempt a pass.

  • The Dallas Cowboys are coming off a shaky performance in Week 18 and hoping to turn things around in time for Wild Card Weekend. Owner and general manager Jerry Jones says he's not concerned about Dak Prescott. "It's in Dak's DNA not to turn the ball over. I have all the confidence in the world that he, as a player, has all the right balance of confidence or all the right balance of aggressiveness as it pertains to a turnover." Umm. Ok?
  • Trevor Lawrence was limited on Wednesday, with his lingering toe injury. Lawrence has not missed any games.
  • The Atlanta Falcons started two different quarterbacks in 2022, veteran Marcus Mariota and rookie Desmond Ridder. The team will have a decision to make at the position this upcoming off-season. While it seems likely, they cut Mariota; they will have to decide if they want to roll with Ridder, draft another QB if they don't like what they saw from Ridder, or bring in a veteran QB. Head coach Arthur Smith said they had yet to make any decisions as of right now. "There will be conversations. Nothing to update now."
