tom brady is a patriot no more

Let me just start off by saying I am floored. I thought for sure he was staying. But no -- legendary quarterback Tom Brady announced on Tuesday that whatever his next football decision is, it will have nothing to do with the New England Patriots. He announced it himself (because of course he did) on his social media.

Never forget that Tom Brady's last game as a Patriot was a horrible L to the Tennessee Titans and his last pass was a pick-six. I'm sure Patriots fans everywhere are dealing with this calmly and rationally.

cam newton may or may not have wanted a trade

On Tuesday, news broke that Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton was given permission by the team to seek a trade. We all kind of knew that was coming. Plot twist: He fired back saying the team "forced" him into this, and it wasn't his choice.

It doesn't seem like we'll know for sure exactly what happened here, but the bottom line is: This was gonna happen regardless if they wanted it or not. 

As for Cam? I think he's still got some left in the tank if, a) he's fully healthy; b) he goes to the right place. We shall see.

Drew Brees is staying in New Orleans - rejoice!

We knew this one was gonna happen too, it was just a matter of when. The New Orleans Saints and their QB Drew Brees agreed to a two-year, $50 million deal on Tuesday for him to remain with the team.

Saints, Drew Brees agree to another two-year deal worth about $25 million per year -- per source. Even more team-friendly than last time considering the QB salary inflation since then.

This more than likely means he'll be a Saint for life. Hashtag blessed.

cory littleton to the raiders

Ex-Los Angeles Rams linebacker Cory Littleton signed a deal with the Las Vegas Raiders​ (still weird to say that). 

Raiders reached agreement with former Rams' LB Cory Littleton on a three-year, $36 million deal, including $22 million guaranteed, per source.

This is an under-the-radar pick, but you'll see soon enough how this will benefit them.​

vic BEASleY signs with the titans

Former Atlanta Falcons pass-rusher Vic Beasley signed a deal with the Tennessee Titans​ on Tuesday.

Former Falcons’ pass rusher Vic Beasley will sign with the Titans, per his agency. The 27 year old led the league in sacks in 2016 when he was in Atlanta.

Win/win on this deal. Get a guy who's good when healthy and only committed for one season if he's not.

DJ Reader to the bengals.

Defensive tackle DJ Reader is signing a four-year, $53 million deal with the ​Cincinnati Bengals​ for some reason. 

#Texans defensive tackle DJ Reader is expected to land with the #Bengals on a 4-year, $53M deal, source said. Cincy is in the free agent mix.

​And the Bengals aren't done yet.

Offensive lineman Alex Lewis is staying put with the New York Jets, as he signed a deal on Tuesday for three years and $18.6 million.

Continuing to work on the offensive line, the Jets have agreed to terms with LG Alex Lewis, a source confirmed. Lewis, 27, did a solid job in 12 starts last season for the Jets, who traded for him in training camp. GM Joe Douglas is plugging holes with... https://t.co/CSbN2hiVtT

This is a little much, in my opinion. He's a solid guy, versatile, but that's a lot of money for someone with his injury history.

two watts in pittsburgh

God dammit, why do they have to do this to me? Fullback Derek Watt is joining his brother, linebacker TJ Watt on the Pittsburgh Steelers​ next season.

The #Steelers are giving former #Chargers FB Derek Watt a deal worth $3.25M per year, source said. ... or, more than double what TJ is making this year. I figure that’ll change at some point □
