Jalen Hurts still dealing with Shoulder injury

2/3/2023

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has been dealing with a shoulder injury for over a month, but it didn't look like it hindered him much in the NFC Championship Game. Hurts said Thursday that he's still working through it but expects to play.

Jalen Hurts on how he is feeling with his injured shoulder:

“I’m getting there. I’ve made it clear this whole time it’s something I’m dealing with.”

Says it is getting better with time #Eagles

more Qb news:

  • It was drilled into our brains yesterday, but yes, Tom Brady retired (again). Aside from the most obvious question - will it last? - another question emerged: Will he retire a New England Patriot or a Tampa Bay Buccaneer? Patriots owner Robert Kraft said he's hoping it's the former. "Not only do I want it, our fans are clamoring for it, and to us, he always has been and always will be a Patriot. We'll do everything we can in our power to bring him back, sign off as a Patriot, and find ways to honor him for many years to come." Oh yes, all we need is ~more~ ways to honor him.
  • Despite looking pretty hobbled after the game, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes says he didn't experience any setbacks with his ankle injury after the AFC Championship Game.

  • Derek Carr will move on in 2023, and the Las Vegas Raiders will likely trade him. While Carr is not "elite," he's a clear upgrade for many teams. So, who will take him? General Manager Dave Ziegler says Carr will likely have a lot of interest.
    • Carr also spoke about his moving on at the Pro Bowl Games.

Tom Brady is retiring, for real this time (maybe)

2/2/2023

On the one-year anniversary of his retiring for the first time, Tom Brady has retired again. And this time, it seems like it's for real (maybe). Brady wanted to announce his decision via video rather than the lengthy, drawn-out statement he put out last February. He said it's for good this time, but I'll believe that when I see it.

Truly grateful on this day. Thank you □□❤️ pic.twitter.com/j2s2sezvSS

— Tom Brady (@TomBrady) February 1, 2023

There were plenty of rumors about Brady playing elsewhere in 2023 - Las Vegas and San Francisco being the two favorites - and then a return to Tampa Bay was also floated as a possibility. It came down to a return to the Buccaneers and retirement. The Bucs found out about his decision around the same time we did.

Tom Brady informed Bucs today at 6 am he’d be retiring. One aspect I’d been mentioning for a bit now: Brady for months implied to many close to him that it was going to be either a return to Tampa or retirement. Tough for many to believe, including those close, but he meant it.

more qb news:

  • The Carolina Panthers have a new coach in Frank Reich, who has been on the losing end of quarterback battles since Andrew Luck. General Manager Scott Fitterer stated their preference in drafting and developing a quarterback in this year's draft. "If there's a guy in this class that you like, you got to go up and get him. We're in a position now where we have a defense; we have an offensive line. We built around this for this opportunity."
  • While the team has not begun contract talks with QB Daniel Jones, New York Giants General Manager Joe Schoen said the club is interested in bringing him back. Jones had the best season of his career under Brian Daboll and earned respect around the league. Unless they can find an upgrade, I'd expect them to re-sign Jones.

Giants general manager Joe Schoen met with reporters in Mobile, telling us negotiations haven’t yet started with QB Daniel Jones but “We want Daniel back”

  • Trey Lance was supposed to be the starting quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers this season before he broke his ankle at the start of the season. Then the same thing happened to Jimmy Garoppolo, which left the rookie third-stringer in Brock Purdy. Lance spoke highly of Purdy and how he handled everything. "I was just super excited for him. He worked his butt off, all OTAs, since the first day he got here, since the day he got drafted. So he deserved everything he got this year and more."
    • Purdy is still considering options for his UCL, while most are recommending surgery.
  • The Atlanta Falcons enter the 2023 off-season with Desmond Ridder as their quarterback. Ridder took over for Marcus Mariota after their bye week and would be the favorite for the starting position heading into 2023. However - with a ton of cap space and a lot of veteran QBs on the move, the Falcons are an interesting spot to keep an eye on. General Manager Terry Fontenot said they're open to bringing someone in. "We're excited about where we are, but yet, we are going to add players... we always want to keep adding to the group."
  • Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott is signed through the 2026 season, and vice president Stephen Jones said the team is committed to him long-term. Prescott will be without offensive coordinator Kellen Moore this year, meaning he'll likely be learning a new offense with head coach Mike McCarthy likely to call plays.

Stephen Jones said the Cowboys are committed to Dak Prescott long term and are open to extending his contract.

  • Finally, some good news regarding Tua Tagovailoa's health. He has been cleared from the NFL's concussion protocol and should be ready to go in time for football season. The Miami Dolphins remain adamant that they are committed to Tagovailoa moving forward. However, the amount of concussions he has had in such a short time is still concerning.

#Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa has cleared the NFL’s concussion protocol, sources say. He met with several medical professionals in the process. They are confident he’ll be 100% when the time comes for football.

— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) February 1, 2023
  • Justin Fields came close to breaking Lamar Jackson's single-season rushing record (and probably would have, had he been active in Week 18), but the Chicago Bears want him to do less running moving forward, as it took a toll on his body. "It's got to be a part of who you are, but in the NFL, it's hard for it to be who you are - you just don't last... So we've got to make sure we just tap into each one of those things, but running, for sure, has to be a part of who we are going forward."
  • Patrick Mahomes was estimated as a full participant in Wednesday's practice, as the Kansas City Chiefs did not hold a full practice.

On Tuesday, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Trey Lance told reporters he'd be cleared soon after undergoing two surgeries on his broken ankle. Lance is expected to be a full-go by OTAs. This is good news for the Niners, who are expected to be rid of Jimmy Garoppolo soon and have Brock Purdy out for at least six months.

Speaking of 49ers QBs, rookie Brock Purdy is currently awaiting second opinions on his injured UCL - a repair vs. reconstruction surgery will determine the time he will be able to return to football activities. Purdy told reporters on Tuesday that he will make a final decision soon.

more QB news:

  • The Pittsburgh Steelers opened the season with QB Mitch Trubisky before turning to rookie Kenny Pickett in Week Four. It took Pickett a bit to warm up, but he emerged from the 2022 season almost in the postseason and is getting better every week. Tight end Pat Freiermuth agrees. "He was just so much more confident and so much more urgent and knew what he was gonna do. So it took him a little bit to get going, but showed that he's the real deal."
  • Trevor Lawrence will replace Patrick Mahomes on the Pro Bowl roster, as Mahomes has something more important to take care of.
    • Jared Goff will replace Jalen Hurts in the Pro Bowl, as he's also playing in the Super Bowl.
  • If you weren't sure if the Pro Bowl was a joke yet, you will now. Baltimore Ravens backup QB Tyler Huntley is heading to the Pro Bowl in place of Josh Allen. At the time voting closed, Huntley had thrown zero (as in, none) touchdowns on the season.
  • It's not a secret that the Buffalo Bills made Josh Allen put it all out on the field. General Manager Brandon Beane says Allen took too many hits in 2022. "The only thing I'd get on to him is he's got too many bruises on him. And we've got to work on taking less hits. That's the only reason I'm ever going to criticize Josh is just take less hits." Maybe that's something Beane can work on this offseason; just saying.
  • Frank Reich has been through the wringer regarding quarterbacks - it started with Andrew Luck and went downhill. Reich is now with the Carolina Panthers and basically has a blank slate. Reich explained how his time with all different kinds of quarterbacks could help him decide which direction to go with Carolina. "I've had to work with the young, the old, the pocket passer, the guy who moves. And I think even though it wasn't always an ideal scenario, like in Indy having a different quarterback every year, I did learn a lot through it because you're forced to adapt and evolve your offense around different styles of quarterbacks."
  • Derek Carr will also attend the Pro Bowl, which should be renamed to Mid Bowl, at this point.
  • The Denver Broncos hired their next head coach Sean Payton, and one of his biggest tasks is to fix Russell Wilson. In 2022, Wilson had one of the worst seasons of his career, and his new coach is already somehow convinced he can be the one to resurrect the old Russell Wilson. "Russell is a hard worker and has played at a high level and won a lot of games in this league. The pressure is on us to put a good run game together and reduce the degree of difficulty on his position. I'm excited about him." Let's ride, indeed.

While he still has to make a firm decision on his future in the NFL, a trade is still on the table for Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers. A trade would free up a big chunk of change for the team ($60 million, to be exact), but he is not expected to be traded to an NFC team. A couple of intriguing teams are the Las Vegas Raiders and the New York Jets, both of whom are expected to move on from their current starters.

More context: Aaron Rodgers doesn't have a no-trade clause in his contract. The #Packers don't need his direct permission to trade him, at least not contractually.

more qb news:

  • The NFL issued a $16,444 fine on Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady for attempting to trip Dallas Cowboys' Malik Hooker in the Wild Card Round. Brady says he plans to appeal the fine. "I didn't even hit him. I tried to trip him, but I didn't. So, I don't know how you can get fined for something that didn't even happen." Umm... baby, that's not how this works.
  • The New England Patriots hired Bill O'Brien as their offensive coordinator on Tuesday, and quarterback Mac Jones is said to be "very excited" about the hire. Jones regressed big time in his second season, and O'Brien is a good fit.
  • Davis Webb started at quarterback for the New York Giants in Week 18, and that may have been it for him. Webb is interested in moving to coaching, and many teams need help on the offensive side of the ball.

Giants’ backup QB Davis Webb, who was offered Buffalo’s QB coach job last off-season, has expressed interest in starting the transition from player to coach. After securing his first NFL start this season, Webb will consider making the jump to coaching for the right opportunity.

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

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.

Its not easy to play in Seattle and all eyes were on San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy. Purdy finished the first quarter 9-for-9 as the Niners lead the Seahawks 7-0.

The cherry on top was this 28-yard touchdown to tight end George Kittle.

The 49ers went on to beat Seattle, 21-13, clinching the division title.

Purdy was efficient in his first road start, completing 17-of 26 passes for 217 yards and two touchdowns.

  • The Cincinnati Bengals are playing Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this weekend, so people will be comparing the two quarterbacks. Joe Burrow doesn't have time for that, though. "I don't pay attention to it. He's Tom, and I'm Joe. I really just think that I play the game my own way."
  • Desmond Ridder is the new starting quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons, and he's giving all the credit to the team for preparing him, even though he's a rookie. "I'm prepared for this. This is what they've been preparing me for. They didn't want to baby me. It means going about the game plan how a 12-year vet, an eight-year vet, whatever it may be, would."
  • Despite having a talented roster, the Las Vegas Raiders are about to miss the playoffs again. And on top of that, it's looking like quarterback Derek Carr may be on the move this offseason.

Speaking of horrible, Derek Carr was asked about Mark Davis' endorsement of McDaniels.

That's where I'm at. Not worried about anything else, it'll take care of itself as long as I do my job, and we'll see where it goes."
  • Justin Fields is on pace to set the new quarterback rushing record, but there are always concerns about a quarterback's body when running. Fields acknowledged the toll all the running takes on his body. "My legs just felt heavy after the game. The guys on the strength staff said that my load has been pretty high, so I've just been doing a little bit of tapering back this week in practice."
  • After missing last week's game, Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford will be cleared from the concussion protocol and will start Sunday's game against the Saints. The bigger problem is the absence of wide receiver Cooper Kupp, but I'm sure the Rams will take what they can get at this point.

Yes, Matt Canada called this play.

The Pittsburgh Steelers ran the 'Philly Special' against the Philadelphia Eagles, because of course they did. It involved wide receiver Chase Claypool throwing a touchdown to fullback (!!) Derek Watt for six in the first quarter.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has the touchdown catch of the year so far with this one-handed grab from QB Kyler Murray.

Hopkins is coming off of a six-game PED suspension and is still one of the best in the league made sure to stick his hand out while being smothered by Minnesota Vikings defenders.

The Cardinals went on to lose this game, 34-26.
No one wants to win the NFC South.

In a close game, the Carolina Panthers had wide receiver DJ Moore line up to receive a Hail Mary attempt from QB PJ Walker, which was caught.

But before they had a chance to get excited, Moore ripped off his helmet, which is a (lame) penalty for excessive celebration, generating a flag by the refs.

The kick was missed, sending the game into overtime.

Packers’ HC Matt LaFleur told reporters that QB Aaron Rodgers will not practice today due to a thumb injury, but he added “we don't have much concern as far as gameday.”

  • Another week of the Cooper Rush Experience for the Dallas Cowboys. Starter Dak Prescott began throwing this week, but still needs more time to get up to speed to be on the field. Rush has been undefeated as a starter and will go up against the undefeated Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday night.

The Cowboys are preparing for Cooper Rush to start against the Eagles, per coach Mike McCarthy.
Dak Prescott is improving. Planned to throw to receivers in practice. Has not been medically cleared.

  • Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa will not play this week after suffering two concussions four days apart. Third-stringer Skylar Thompson will get the start this week, with Teddy Bridgewater also unavailable. You can't make this up.

McDaniel on Tua vs. Vikings: "I don't see him active and I do not plan to have him play at all."

  • Some good news, though! Wide receiver Tyreek Hill, who was injured in last week's game, is optimistic that he will be able to play this week. Hill hurt his left foot in Week Five and was in a walking boot following the game.

McDaniel said Tyreek Hill will practice today, sans walking boot
