more qb news:

  • The Minnesota Vikings retained their offensive system from last season, and for QB Kirk Cousins, that is a very good thing. "Having somebody in my helmet for the second year in a row, I'm really encouraged by because there had always been that change. And while the system was many times staying similar, a different voice in front of the room, a different voice in your helmet, certainly there's still changes there. I think that's a positive too, to build that rapport with Kevin [O'Connell]."
  • San Francisco 49ers QB Brock Purdy is still recovering from elbow surgery and should be able to start throwing in a few weeks. "I just got a report from the trainers," GM John Lynch said. "So week 12, that's where he can actually go out, start lobbing a football. And according to the surgeon, you start getting a little better read on exactly where he's at right about then." Purdy is not expected to be ready to go in time for training camp this summer, but the team hopes he's able to play come September.
  • The New England Patriots signed TE Mike Gesicki this offseason with the hopes of him vibing with QB Mac Jones. Gesicki says he's excited to work with Jones this year, and complimented his work ethic and personality.

Is Trey Lance on the move?

4/20/2023

The San Francisco 49ers have been taking calls from teams asking about QB Trey Lance. While that's as far as the process goes, teams calling about his availability before the draft is significant. Brock Purdy is likely to be the starter whenever he is fully recovered from his elbow injury that he sustained in the NFC Championship Game. The Niners also have QB Sam Darnold on the roster.

Two intriguing landing spots for Lance could be the Tennessee Titans and Houston Texans, as he's familiar with Titans GM Ran Carthon and Titans head coach DeMeco Ryans.

Sources: The #49ers have received inquiries from several teams looking into a potential trade for former No. 3 pick QB Trey Lance. The conversations have been the result of SF fielding the calls, not making them, with teams aware that Brock Purdy is likely the future starter. pic.twitter.com/ddOZjZq5Xn

— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) April 19, 2023
A report states the Minnesota Vikings were one of the teams to speak to Lance at this year's scouting combine. There were also rumors swirling around that time about a potential Kirk Cousins trade, so this may be something to keep an eye on.

more Qb news:

  • Deshaun Watson didn't participate in last season's offseason program and Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski says he thinks he'll be better in 2023 after a full offseason. "Certainly, for Deshaun to have that season under his belt, those experiences and be able to learn from everything that's happened last year, into the past, I think he'll be a better player for it." Maybe, hear me out, he shouldn't have done what he did to earn his suspension, then?
  • CJ Stroud visited the Atlanta Falcons on Wednesday.
  • Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes worked out with one of the top WR prospects on Wednesday. Boston College receiver Zay Flowers traveled to Texas to work out with Mahomes at the request of the team. Imagine getting that call when you think your visits are over. The Chiefs will likely have to trade up to get Flowers, however, as he's one of the top prospects in this year's NFL Draft.
  • Andy Dalton signed with the Carolina Panthers this offseason, knowing he'd be sitting behind the No. 1 pick. While it's looking like it's going to be Bryce Young, Dalton said of the young QB, "Size hasn't mattered to him. He's still been able to make the throws you need to make."
  • Sam Howell is supposed to be (key word: supposed to be) the starter for the Washington Commanders in 2023 and is determined to take advantage of the opportunity. "That's what I've been trying to do ever since I got here is to get this opportunity. So, I'm definitely going to try to do everything I can to take advantage of it."

Aaron Rodgers has a wish list now

If Aaron Rodgers is going to play for the New York Jets, he wants to do it his own way, and with some of his friends. Rodgers has given the Jets a 'Wish List' of players he wants the team to target and/or sign, because of course he has. The list includes former teammates Allen Lazard, Marcedes Lewis, best friend Randall Cobb, and Odell Beckham Jr.

Aaron Rodgers has provided the NY Jets with a wish-list of free agents he would like them to target and acquire, per sources.
It includes Randall Cobb, Allen Lazard, Marcedes Lewis and….Odell Beckham Jr.

— Dianna Russini (@diannaESPN) March 14, 2023
One of them is already checked off the list - Lazard signed a four-year, $44 million contract with New York on Tuesday. The rest? Unsure, although the Jets did attend an open workout that OBJ held in Arizona late last week.

The Jets also have Offensive Rookie of the Year Garrett Wilson, Elijah Moore, Corey Davis, and Denzel Mims in their wide receiver room. Not bad. So why does Rodgers want all these older guys in the room, unless he's on a complete power trip? He's already holding two teams hostage during the peak of free agency - the Jets and the team that is hoping to trade him, the Green Bay Packers. Neither can do much until there's a resolution.

Hopefully one is coming soon, as Rodgers is scheduled to appear on his friend, Pat McAfee's show on Wednesday at 1pm.

more QB news:

  • The New Orleans Saints re-signed QB Jameis Winston, presumably to back up new signing Derek Carr. The deal is worth "up to" $8 million, which he likely won't see unless Carr gets injured.
  • The Buffalo Bills restructured QB Josh Allen's contract, along with LB Von Miller's, creating up to $32 million in cap space.
  • The Atlanta Falcons will sign QB Taylor Heinicke to a two-year contract, worth up to $20 million. I predict he'll compete with second-year QB Desmond Ridder for the starting job, as his contract contains high-end backup money, laden with incentives for starts.
  • The Minnesota Vikings restructured QB Kirk Cousins' contract, creating $16 milion in cap space.
    • The Minnesota Vikings willre-sign backup QB Nick Mullens, who was on their roster last season.
  • The Indianapolis Colts plan to release QB Matt Ryan by Friday. Ryan was benched twice this past season, and will save $17.2 million against the Colts' cap. Ryan has also won zero Super Bowls.
  • The Carolina Panthers, while owning the No. 1 pick, are signing QB Andy Dalton to be the veteran backup to whomever they choose. Dalton's deal includes $8 million guaranteed and another $7 million in incentives, presumably for playing time.

  • Derek Carr's free agency tour continues in Indianapolis. Carr met with the New Orleans Saints and Carolina Panthers on Tuesday and the New York Jets on Wednesday.
    • On Carr's visit with the Panthers - Frank Reich said the visit went well, and added that Carr is in "his prime." Which is an, uh, interesting choice of words.
    • With the Saints, General Manager Mickey Loomis said the two sides will stay in touch as they work out both sides of their search. "We had a good visit. He's going through his process and we're going through our process, and we'll see what happens."

Now, rumors are swirling that Adams will try to recruit Rodgers to the Raiders heavily. General Manager Dave Ziegler says Adams will be involved in conversations about who he'll be catching passes from in 2023. "He's earned the right to be kept in the loop. Josh McDaniels and I feel that way, by what he's accomplished and who he is as a player, and who he is as a leader on that team. So, he'll be involved in those conversations."
  • On Tuesday, Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said that the team would take its time deciding on QB Tua Tagovailoa's fifth-year option. They'll also have to decide on a long-term deal—something to keep in mind - Tagovailoa's recent history with concussions. General Manager Chris Grier spoke about their willingness to extend their starting QB. "I mean, I can't lie and say no, but it's not something that's gonna make us afraid to do something long-term at all. The one thing he's had, he's been banged up, but he always comes back and bounces back and plays hard and performs."
  • While Trey Lance will likely be the San Francisco 49ers' starter come September, the team will probably have to add another arm with Brock Purdy getting elbow surgery soon. General Manager John Lynch confirmed the need to add someone and mentioned that it wouldn't be Tom Brady. Because, of course, someone had to ask that.

Matt Ryan benched, again

Merry Christmas to me!

The Indianapolis Colts are benching quarterback Matt Ryan - yes, again - for Nick Foles. Foles will be their third quarterback to start this season. Definitely not what they had planned.

The Colts are changing quarterbacks again. Nick Foles will take over for Matt Ryan as the starter Monday Night against the Chargers, and the plan is for Foles to start the final three games of the season. Announcement expected Wednesday afternoon.

— Dan Graziano (@DanGrazianoESPN) December 21, 2022

The first time Ryan was benched, rookie Sam Ehlinger took over, and head coach Frank Reich was later fired. Then, the Colts hired Jeff Saturday for some reason, went back to Ryan, and blew the biggest lead in NFL history.

Foles, their last hope, is a former Super Bowl MVP and has only played two snaps this season - the final snaps of a 24-0 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Foles said on Wednesday that he had no frustration towards the Colts for not turning to him earlier in the season.

The Colts take on Justin Herbert, an actual good QB, and the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday Night Football.

The team isn't that worried, though, according to tight end Dallas Goedert. "He's just got a lot of respect because he comes in here to work every day, prepares like the starter even though he knows he's the backup. He knows his role, and he just waits for an opportunity like this, and we all have faith that he's going to make the most of it."

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 Atlanta Falcons ended up winning this one by pure magic, 37-34.

Is OBJ dropping hints re: where he's going to sign?

The Los Angeles Rams kick off the 2022 NFL season on Thursday, but one of its members who won a ring with the team will be absent. Wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is a free agent, as he's been nursing a knee injury this offseason. However, reports surfaced on Monday that the Rams have kept Beckham's locker (with the nameplate - very important) intact, perhaps keeping him in mind when he's healthy and ready to return.

Adding fuel to the fire, Beckham tweeted on Tuesday that he would be watching the game very closely, which led to questions of whether his decision to sign was between the Rams and their opponent, the Buffalo Bills.

Whoever wins Thursday !!!!! ? ? ?can’t wait … to all the boys goin into the season! May God bless u wit peace of mind and physical strength to endure the season. God watch over all my brothers this year let them shine and stay healthy !! LUV

— Odell Beckham Jr (@obj) September 6, 2022

One thing to note: The Rams and Buffalo are two teams linked to landing the star WR this off-season. While a resolution might not come until later in the season due to his recovery, Beckham could certainly have to decide between these two teams, which may not be a bad problem to have.

more:

  • Green Bay Packers left tackle David Bakhtiari told reporters on Monday he thinks he will be ready to play in Week One's matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Bakhtiari has been dealing with what seems like 800 knee injuries - he originally tore his ACL in 2020, briefly played last season for like three seconds (literally), and then had another knee surgery this past offseason. Bakhtiari, one of the NFL's best offensive linemen when healthy, would undoubtedly boost the Packers in 2022, as long as they don't feel they are rushing his return.

David Bakhtiari says he's on track to start opener vs. Vikings.

Shepard returned to practice just over 2 weeks ago. He will be back in game action less than 9 months after tearing his Achilles. His personal goal this year is to play 17 games. #Giants

After this, I won't be talking about antonio brown anymore

  • I'm so sick of talking about Antonio Brown already. The truth is, we'll probably never know what actually happened, because a) Brown is undoubtedly not to be trusted for the truth, as he has shown us repeatedly; and b) Bruce Arians will likely sugarcoat things, so as not make the team look bad while heading into the postseason. While rumors have been swirling that Brown was injured and was almost forced to go back on the field, he certainly looked healthy for most of the game, no? When asked what happened, Arians had this to say  (but he did not reveal what was said in the actual conversation he references). And we're done talking about Antonio Brown.

Here's full quote on Bruce Arians on Antonio Brown: "I don't know that he was (injured). It's pretty obvious what happened. He left the field and that was it. ... We had a conversation and he left the field."

DeSean Jackson said on Instagram that he wanted to wear these specially designed cleats in honor of Madden, but was ordered to take them off before the game or he wouldn't have been allowed to play. WTF? 🤔

  • The Washington Football Team is in the news once again for the wrong reasons. After a video went viral on Sunday of a railing collapsing and almost falling onto Eagles QB Jalen Hurts, everything has been fixed. This goddamn team fixed the railing with zip ties! At least pretend like you care. Too much to ask for Dan Snyder, I guess. Looks just like new. Zip. Ties.
