Jalen Hurts still dealing with Shoulder injury

2/3/2023

Picture

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.

Mahomes said no reaggravation panthers ankle against Bengals. Just general soreness from a physical game."Other than that, I'm in a good spot." pic.twitter.com/yLszebtWJq

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

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.

The Tennessee Titans dominated the Green Bay Packers from start to finish on Thursday Night Football. The star of the show was running back Derrick Henry. Henry topped 1,000 rushing yards for the season (seven-plus weeks to go). Henry also ran for a touchdown and played quarterback for the night, tossing this pass to tight end Austin Hooper for six.

more qb news:

  • The Las Vegas Raiders are keeping head coach Josh McDaniels around for some reason, despite him being a horrible coach. 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.

"I think a lot of us are working on different things every day, and the bye week's a great time to do that. So for me, just making sure my feet and eyes are in the right place and continue to go through my reads and continue to improve in the weight room, nutrition, all that stuff."
  • Pittsburgh Steelers rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett has been dealing with some first-year jitters this season. His interceptions are one of the main ones sticking out like a sore thumb. But, Pickett said, "There are things I can get a lot better at. It's knowing what those things are and finding out and going and attacking it."

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was the better QB during Thursday Night Football, but only if you point to the second half. After a shaky start, Jackson ended up going 27-of-38 passes for 238 yards and two touchdowns in a 27-22 win over Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

And it's not a Lamar Jackson Game without a Lamar Jackson Run.

NOTES:

  • Bears lost center Lucas Patrick in the first quarter, where he was declared doubtful to return with a foot injury. He was carted to the locker room.
  • Jones got away with a Diqq Kiqq right to the balls of Bears DB Jaquan Brisker. Brisker left the game for a play, and then returned to promptly catch the interception that got Jones benched. Taylor Swift sings about karma, and it exists.
  • Patriots safety Kyle Duggar limped to the locker room in the second half, where he was ruled questionable to return with an ankle injury.
  • Bears defensive lineman Mike Pennel was ejected after a blindside block on Pats David Andrews.

more:

  • It has finally happened. Through years of pain and anguish, quarterback Matt Ryan has been benched for the Indianapolis Colts, meaning Sam Ehlinger will start for the remainder of the season.
  • New York Jets rookie running back Breece Hall was confirmed on Monday to have torn his ACL in Week 7. Right tackle Alijah Vera-Tucker will also miss the remainder of the season with a triceps injury.
    • To replace Hall, the Jets are acquiring RB James Robinson from the Jacksonville Jaguars for a conditional sixth-round pick in return. Robinson gives them some much-needed help at the position.
  • Speaking of injuries teams being decimated by injuries, the Los Angeles Chargers are also down two players. Cornerback JC Jackson will miss the season with a ruptured patellar tendon. Wide receiver Mike Williams will miss some time with a high-ankle sprain.
  • Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said wide receiver DK Metcalf, who left Sunday's game with a knee injury, will not need surgery and will rehab the knee. That's good news considering.
  • TIP: Keep an eye on Denver Broncos head coach Nathaniel Hackett, who many think could be fired if they do not come out of London with a win.

ooof of the day:

  • The NFL is investigating this incident, where an NFL referee approached Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans and asked for an autograph following Sunday's game. Sources say you're not fucking allowed to do that.

Rams make Donald highest-paid Non-QB in NFL HIstory

As soon as the confetti fell from the ceiling, rumors began swirling that legendary defensive tackle Aaron Donald was mulling retirement. However, with thoughts of 'going on top' on his mind, Donald ultimately decided to return to where he won a Lombardi. Famously known for creating the 'Dream Team,' the Los Angeles Rams are preparing to do the same this season with Donald, pushing an extra $40 million his way over the next few seasons. With a grand total of $95 million through 2024, Donald is now the highest-paid non-quarterback.

Sources: The #Rams have re-worked All-World DT Aaron Donald’s 3 remaining contract years to give him a massive $40M raise through 2024, making him the highest paid non-QB in NFL history at 31 years old. He gets $95M(!) through 2024. pic.twitter.com/SoDRw4GHE4

  • The Green Bay Packers signed cornerback Jaire Alexander to a four-year, $84 million contract extension, making him the highest-paid corner in NFL history (up until this point, because we know that's how it works). Alexander is said to be fully recovered from a shoulder injury that kept him sidelined for the majority of 2021. When healthy, Alexander is one of the best CBs in the NFL; now, he's paid like one.

Packers and Pro-Bowl CB Jaire Alexander are finalizing a 4-year, $84 million contract extension, per source. Deal includes $31 million in 2022 - a DB record of $30 million in signing bonus. Alexander will receive $42.5M by March. @JohnThornton of @RocNationSports confirmed deal.

Bucs quarterbacks coach Clyde Christensen when asked if Kyle Trask will have the chance to compete as the backup QB: "It's more of a learning curve. I don't see him competing with Gabbert this year. ... I see Gabbert being the backup and Kyle being the developmental guy."
