While this season was mostly a wash for the Arizona Cardinals, now the question lingers if he'll be ready to go by the start of the 2023 season.

Head coach Kliff Kingsbury told reporters on Tuesday that he will get more tests done before having surgery.

  • Kenny Pickett has entered the NFL's concussion protocol after leaving Sunday's game. Backup Mitch Trubisky took his place and would likely get the starting nod should Pickett not be able to go in Week 15. This is Pickett's second such injury in two months, which is cause for concern.

Mike Tomlin said if QB Kenny Pickett (concussion protocol) is "able to work, we'll work him. If not, we'll get Mitch and Mason ready." He said when dealing with concussion protocol, you take it day-to-day.

  • The Seattle Seahawks are taking on the Carolina Panthers this weekend, and it's a must-win should the Seahawks want to stay active in the playoff race. Offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo spoke about Seahawks QB Geno Smith's Cinderella-story comeback this year in the NFL. "You're seeing that with Geno, and that's just a part of playing the game. These guys go through a lot as they come up through the ranks, and they get a chance to play in this league. Sometimes they just need to get in the right situation, and certainly, that's where Geno is right now."
  • The last time Mike White played the Buffalo Bills didn't go so well. And that's putting it nicely. White says he's not thinking about that, though. "You can't go in there thinking, 'I want revenge for what happened last year.' What happened last year is over with. It's a different scenario, different team."
  • Even though he's unlikely to return this season with a broken foot, the San Francisco 49ers won't put Jimmy Garoppolo on injured reserve, according to GM John Lynch. "I think we're just going to carry him on our roster, and we're going to kind of see how the rehab process goes. There's a natural healing process that has to take place."
  • Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett was a teammate of Baker Mayfield's for four seasons, and said he was not at all surprised by his big comeback win on Thursday night with just hours of preparation. "I mean, it was impressive. And going back to watch it, he was putting some dimes out there for guys to go get early on in the game and it was just that time until it clicked. So I have nothing against the guy now. I'm hoping for his success wherever he's at."

The Los Angeles Rams were the lucky winners of the Baker Mayfield sweepstakes after he was put on waivers by the Carolina Panthers on Monday.

Former No. 1 overall pick Baker Mayfield was claimed on waivers today by the Los Angeles Rams, per league sources. The Rams now inherit the remaining $1.35 million on Mayfield’s contract.

While he's not expected to start on Thursday night, Mayfield reportedly went straight to LA, playbook in hand and ready to learn the offense. The Rams placed starting quarterback Matthew Stafford on injured reserve after a series of injuries; backup John Wolford is also injured, leaving Bryce Perkins at the position.

While Los Angeles is all but done as far as the playoff race goes, and Mayfield hasn't exactly lit it up in the NFL, this is the best roster he's been a part of thus far. It'll be interesting to see what comes of this move long-term.

Despite a few other teams potentially needing someone at the QB position, the Rams were the only team to put in a waiver claim for Mayfield.

more qb news:

  • In probably the best news they could have gotten, Jimmy Garoppolo got good news on his foot injury on Tuesday, avoiding a Lisfranc injury and surgery. Garoppolo could return in 7-8 weeks, putting him in the window to return in the postseason, should the San Francisco 49ers make it that far without him. The Niners plan to roll with Brock Purdy at the starting role for the time being.
    • The Niners signed QB Josh Johnson to a one-year deal.
    • San Francisco did not put a waiver claim in on Mayfield.

Sources: Doctors concluded today that 49ers' QB Jimmy Garoppolo does not need foot surgery, it is not a Lisfranc injury, and if rehab goes smoothly, he could have a chance to return in 7-8 weeks, making him a potential playoff contributor. pic.twitter.com/beYu1Pa9KU

  • Baltimore Ravens quarterback has been diagnosed with a sprained PCL, and will likely miss Week 14's game. A typical recovery period for this type of injury is 1-3 weeks.
    • While the Pittsburgh Steelers aren't likely to face starting quarterback Lamar Jackson on Sunday, they will meet Tyler Huntley, a familiar face for them. Huntley played a pretty solid game against Pittsburgh last season, and head coach Mike Tomlin says they're expecting an improved Huntley. "We expect to see a much better guy."

Ravens’ QB Lamar Jackson suffered a sprained PCL during Sunday’s win over the Denver Broncos, per league sources. PCL injuries often sideline players 1-to-3 weeks and Ravens’ HC John Harbaugh already has said Jackson is “less likely” to play Sunday vs. the Steelers. pic.twitter.com/4ra4KDuUdQ

  • The Indianapolis Colts have a bye week in Week 14, and they'll (hopefully) spend it evaluating things. Head coach Jeff Saturday says they'll look at everything, including the QB position because Matt Ryan is bad. "We're going to look at everything, no position in particular, but everybody. We need the best 11 on the field every time. If we think somebody gives us a better chance to win, let's have those discussions this week."
  • Speaking of benching quarterbacks on their bye week, I present to you the Atlanta Falcons. Head coach Arthur Smith talked about making team changes during this week off. "We've got to get over this hump here, and there are a lot of things at stake. It's going to be what's best for this team short term and long term."
  • Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said there could be discussions about backup QB Jordan Love starting games late in the regular season.
  • Tua Tagovailoa left Sunday's game early while dealing with an ankle injury. Head coach Mike McDaniel said it's not a big deal, and Tagovailoa shouldn't miss any time. "We will just be mindful of what he does...But I'm very confident and don't anticipate any sort of setback that would negate him playing in the upcoming football match."
  • The Washington Commanders seem prepared to ride the Taylor Heinicke wave from now on, with Carson Wentz as the backup. Head coach Ron Rivera confirmed. "I feel comfortable with Taylor. When Carson's activated, he'll be the primary backup, and we'll go from there."

Panthers release Baker Mayfield

12/6/2022

0 Comments

 
Picture
The Carolina Panthers are ending the Baker Mayfield experiment. Mayfield asked the team for his release on Monday morning, and the team promptly granted it. Sam Darnold appears to be the clear-cut starter from now on, with PJ Walker in the wings. Mayfield was set to become a free agent in 2023, so there is no sense in keeping him around.

The Cleveland Browns traded Mayfield to the Panthers for a 2024 conditional fifth-round pick and a salary agreement after acquiring alleged predator Deshaun Watson.

As for a new home, the top choice obviously points to the San Francisco 49ers, having lost starter Jimmy Garoppolo on Sunday to a broken foot. Other teams who could be interested (in my opinion) who could use a quarterback include Houston, New England, Indianapolis, New Orleans, or the Los Angeles Rams.

Sources: The #Panthers are expected to release QB Baker Mayfield. He'll hit waivers when it's finalized later today.

more Qb news:

  • Joe Burrow went 25-for-31, 286 yards, and two touchdowns on Sunday, resulting in a big "fuck you" win over the Kansas City Chiefs. Although he started the 2022 season a little shaky, Burrow and company are putting things together at precisely the right time. Head coach Zac Taylor said after the game, "He's playing at the level we need for him to lead us to be confident that we can go win every game we play."
    • On his side of things, Patrick Mahomes gave total credit to Cincinnati. "First off, they have a great quarterback - a guy that's won a lot of football games...They're well coached, have a good defense, and at the end of the day, they've executed at a higher level in critical situations."
  • The worst news of the day by far came with the loss of Jimmy Garoppolo on Sunday, as he left the game with a broken foot. When asked what the loss will mean to the San Francisco 49ers from now on, running back Christian McCaffrey said, "It's brutal. I haven't been around a long time here, but I can't say enough good things about him... from a leadership standpoint, from the way he operates, his attitude on a daily basis."
  • Lamar Jackson left Sunday's game with a knee injury, leading Tyler Huntley to get the win (sort of) for the Baltimore Ravens. And it seems like he will have to do it again, at least for next week. Tight end Mark Andrews spoke about Huntley's poise and preparation for going into the starting role. "He was acting like he's been there before, which he has. So, just so much love and respect for his game and what he's able to do."
    • The Baltimore Ravens signed Brett Hundley to their practice squad, with Lamar Jackson's injury looming.
    • John Harbaugh told reporters on Monday that Jackson is unlikely to play in Week 14 vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers.

#Ravens coach John Harbaugh said QB Lamar Jackson (knee) is unlikely to play Sunday vs. the #Steelers: "I would say it's kind of week to week. ... It's probably less likely for this week, but it's not impossible. And then after that it'll become more and more likely."

  • It turns out the Jacksonville Jaguars weren't able to build off last week's game-winning drive against the Ravens. Instead, the Jags made Jared Goff look like Joe Montana. On the loss, Trevor Lawrence said: "I mean, that's the word to describe it; it's embarrassing. Everybody in that locker room feels that way too. I mean, this is a playoff game for us, and we go out there and laid down."
  • Robert Saleh said Mike White will start again in Week 14 for the New York Jets. Joe Flacco will be the backup and Zach Wilson will be inactive.
  • John Wolford was estimated as a non-participant in practice on Monday.

Mike White came out swinging, immediately showing he was better than Zach Wilson, giving the New York Jets a 7-0 lead on this eight-yard touchdown to Garrett Wilson.

White and the Jets came out with a win, with White throwing for 315 yards and three touchdowns.

It's safe to say, this will be Mike White's job for a little bit.

Tua Tagovailoa MVP chants!!! #FinsUp pic.twitter.com/CsSPlqPt7Q

— Big E (@ian693) November 27, 2022
The Miami Dolphins ended up pulling starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa before the end of the game because they had the Houston Texans so far in the hole.

The Dolphins were up 30-6 when they pulled Tagovailoa with just over three minutes left in the third quarter.

Tagovailoa earned these MVP chants this week.
Sam Darnold played his first game of the season after suffering an ankle injury in the preseason. And.. surprise. He added a much needed spark to the otherwise lifeless Carolina Panthers offense.

Darnold didn't blow anyone away - he was 11-of-19 for 164 yards and one touchdown - but he was better than Russell Wilson and the tanking Denver Broncos by a mile.

And now I present to you, the most Sam Darnold touchdown of all time.

Panthers head coach Steve Wilks confirmed Darnold will remain the starter after the bye week.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence had one of his best games of the season, and one of his toughest challenges in the Baltimore Ravens defense.

Lawrence marched his team down the field in the final seconds of the game, and then executed a near-perfect two-point converstion for the win.

more Qb news:

  • The Green Bay Packers, and more notably, Aaron Rodgers, aren't doing so hot this season. Rodgers has been dealing with a thumb injury for most of the season, which has been revealed to be an avulsion fracture. This injury usually requires surgery - Rodgers has been playing through it. A few more L's and we could see Rodgers heading to injured reserve and possibly surgery.
    • A report from Jay Glazer on Sunday stated that the injury was affecting Rodgers' accuracy.
  • Deshaun Watson is set to be reinstated on Monday. Yuck.
    • Jacoby Brissett spoke after the game (and his last presumed start for the Browns) about how grateful he was for his opportunity to step in for Watson.

  • Matthew Stafford was ruled out for Week 12 following a neck strain. Stafford also dealt with "concussion issues" (depending on who you ask) the week before.

  • Some confusion ahead of Bears-Jets: Chicago Bears backup quarterback Trevor Siemian injured his oblique in warmups, pointing towards third-stringer Nathan Peterman making the start for Chicago. Siemian got a pain-killing injection and ended up as the starting quarterback. It was quite riveting.
    • Bears head coach Matt Eberflus said starter Justin Fields is getting better, but didn't commit to him being back next week. "We think that he's getting better every single day. At gametime today he wasn't ready to perform and protect himself."
  • A semi-viral moment occurred when Denver Broncos defensive tackle screamed at quarterback Russell Wilson on the sideline (he is all of us). Wilson downplayed it (because of course he did), saying he just wanted "a spark." Mmmk.

Russell Wilson on exchange with Mike Purcell: "Mike and I are on the same page. He came off after he kicked the field goal and he was pissed off. He said we've got to f-in go. I agreed. ... There's no animosity. We've got to win."

Speaking of horrible, Derek Carr was asked about Mark Davis' endorsement of McDaniels. "There is a process, and we do have time during the season that we know who our leader is, and we know that we're rolling, and that gives us confidence as a football team." Ummm.. ok.
  • Baker Mayfield will start for the Carolina Panthers this weekend, but he's not worried about keeping the job. "It's pretty important to win since we're still in the division race. 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.

will Carson Wentz get his starting job back?

The Washington Commanders beat the undefeated Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night, which sparked questions that have been brewing for a few weeks: Should Taylor Heinicke keep the starting job? Will Carson Wentz, the intended starter, get his job back?

Wentz is currently on injured reserve but is set to return soon. The Commanders' offense is playing better with Heinicke. Washington is 3-1 when Heinicke starts, compared to just 2-4 under Wentz. The Commanders will also have to give up a second-round pick to the Indianapolis Colts if Wentz plays 70 percent of snaps. It's a no-brainer for me.

Head coach Ron Rivera spoke on Tuesday and did not name a starter for Week 11.

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.

The Buffalo Bills started the season with a beautiful first drive right into the end zone. Quarterback Josh Allen threw a 26-yard pass to wide receiver Gabriel Davis for a touchdown. Allen was 5-for-5 with 58 yards on the drive.

A turnover fest broke out in the second quarter, with three straight turnovers. First, Allen "threw" an interception to receiver Isaiah McKenzie (who straight up dropped it). Then, running back James Cook fumbled the ball on his first carry shortly after. Finally, Rams QB Matthew Stafford gave it right back, throwing an interception to CB Dane Jackson. The Bills ended this turnover streak with a field goal to take a 10-0 lead over Los Angeles.

The game went into halftime tied 10-10 after a phenomenal catch from wide receiver Cooper Kupp. It's good. Trust me.

Just absolute insanity. pic.twitter.com/ebninmueEP

Following halftime, Buffalo appeared to make adjustments as they forced a Rams' three-and-out. A stiff arm and a redemption touchdown by McKenzie later, the Bills were up 17-10.
