People had been talking about it. There had been rumors out there. We have had conversations with teams. But it's just he's at a good place."The honesty is refreshing.As for Sherman, he played last season with an undisclosed MCL injury. As 's Andy Benoit pointed out, that could go a long way toward explaining Sherman's struggles with changing direction. Still, he's an integral part of the Seahawks secondary and it's not like there are better options on the roster that would allow the team to trade him anyway.

The 49ers' defense had mostly held Mahomes in check for the first 50 minutes of Super Bowl Jackrabbit Jenkins Jersey LIV before Mahomes led the on three consecutive scoring drives en route to a 31-20 victory. "It's good to be back in this role," Woods said on Friday, via the team's official website. "I felt like I learned a lot from my time in Denver. It's Brian Orakpo Jersey really about managing people, game-planning and how to call a game, so I feel like I'm more prepared now than I was then. "When you have pieces in place and with the additions we'll make in free agency and the draft, I feel like we can really get something accomplished here this next season."Woods has recent experience coaching against new Browns head coach Kyle Stefanski, as Stefanski was Minnesota's offensive coordinator during San Francisco's divisional round victory over the Vikings. Both Woods and Stefanski joined the Vikings' coaching staff in 2006 and would spend the next eight seasons together in Minnesota.

"Just sitting with him this past day and talking football, it just aligns with the vision with the type of defense we want to play. I think Matt Barkley Jersey we've got a really good defensive coordinator." Woods is also to coach against Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin, as the two spent two seasons together in Minnesota before Tomlin was hired by Pittsburgh to replace 2020 Hall of Fame inductee Bill Cowher in 2007.

Funghi Ben Roethlisberger Jersey QB1.Nagy reiterated on Sunday that veteran , who signed a one-year deal with the club earlier this offseason, is the starter at the moment and is "going to get the one reps" once the club opens up organized team activities next week.Despite both Dalton and Fields being new to the Bears, the former has a decade of NFL experience under his belt, which may give him the early edge to po sibly Derek Watt Jersey win the job out of the gate. While Fields is the clear future under center in Chicago, Nagy appears to be taking the slow approach with his young quarterback, opting to ease him into the league to prevent any speed bumps in his development."I know that time is the biggest question right now for Justin and I completely understand that, because there is an excitement, there is that want for all of us to see what Justin can do," Nagy said, via . "We'd be lying Cameron Heyward Jersey to you if we didn't say that or believe that. But we got to make sure as we go through this thing that we also do what's best for the Bears and for Justin." While Nagy may be holding out from clearing a path atop the depth chart for Fields Tony Dungy Jersey , the quarterback is "I think everybody on our team should be striving for a starting job and if you're not, there's no reason for you to be here," Fields told reporters Friday. "Of course, I'm gonna do everything that I can to get that starting job. It's really not up to me, Coach Matt Nagy has a set plan on my development. I'm just going to work hard, keep my head down, and just keep grinding it out every day." Determining how the quarterback reps will be split throughout the summer will be one of the more intriguing developments with the Bears. Not only are Fields and Dalton part of that discu sion, but so is former Super Bowl MVP . Nagy relayed Rashaad Coward Jersey that he and offensive coordinator Bill Lazor have not yet created a clear pie chart of who'll take what reps heading into the rest of the offseason program.

It is impo sible to Ron Yary Jersey know for certain if Gronk will be cleared in time for the Super Bowl, but if you're a betting man or woman, you should wager heavily on Gronk being on the field.

In fact, he wasn't even the Eagles starting quarterback to begin the season. That was , who probably would have won MVP, except he tore his ACL late in the year (Brady is going to win now). Foles nearly quit football a few years ago, but came back to Philly (where he was drafted), backed up Wentz and stepped in late in the season. He just happened to have the game of his life on Sunday against the Vikings defense, throwing for 352 yards and three touchdowns. That performance against a dangerous defense like the Vikings should give Eagles fans hope against the Patriots, although two weeks for Bill Belichick to prepare is a problem for anyone.

Given both teams' aspirations in 2021, this should be a similarly exciting game.Don't think for a second that Giants fans haven't forgotten what transpired during the final week of the 2020 season. The Giants, needing an Eagles win over Washington to clinch a division title as well as a playoff berth, watched helple sly as Philadelphia changed quarterbacks while e sentially surrendering the division title to Washington.

Funghi Innis Gaines Jersey players who were no longer of use to one team. From here on out, player development takes over and we'll find out in a few months which previously dormant 2014 or 2015 draft picks are finally ready to step up, who the busts are from those cla ses and which rookies are primed to make an immediate impact. More La Canfora That, of course, is incredibly difficult to predict, but it won't stop me and others from trying. Vegas is all over this 365 days a year with its odds and over/under win totals and this is generally when I first start to mull the collective gains and setbacks of an organization. Once the draft is complete, you can start to glance at some depth charts and ponder certain scheme fits and perhaps start to get an early pulse on what is to come in 2017.With that in mind, here's my first look at some projections on which clubs I believe will reach the postseason. History tells us at least 2-3 playoff teams in each conference will be different from how it played out a year ago, and the team that loses the Super Bowl generally is in for a rough go of it the following campaign. If you're curious about how I graded out last year doing this same exercise, -- and wasn't too far off about the Raiders, who still made the playoffs as a wild card. I totally mi sed on the Panthers (whoops) and liked the Colts in the AFC South.Anyway, here's my early forecast of how the 2017 season plays out.AFC division winnersThe rich get richer. The best get better. All of that good stuff. The look better on paper than the squad that won the Super Bowl, with a revamped, more dynamic run game, the return of TE to go with the addition of in the pa s game. and are both on the Jace Sternberger Jersey roster at corner, still, and despite having so few picks, personnel guys around the league are raving about Bill Belichick's draft. remains as the backup pa ser should suffer an injury. Pencil the Patriots in for another No. 1 seed.The secondary used to be the biggest concern for the , but safety , their top pick in 2016, should be healthier this year. Getting Gareon Conley late in the first round was a steal and I love the addition of safety Obi Melifonwu as well. That unit got much more athletic and dynamic. I'm not sure has much left, but this offensive line should be powerful no matter who runs behind it. The Raiders will get and signed long-term and as long as the fans don't revolt too much -- given the team's impending move to Vegas and all -- this team is the cla s of the AFC West and very much still ascending. Addition from within here as well, a suming stays out of trouble between now and the end of the season. The offense looks like it should truly be able to hit top form, and all the defense has to be is OK for the to be deep in the playoff mix again. The continued emergence of pa s rusher could be crucial. The are declining and the are still trying to get back to their lofty perch and this remains Pittsburgh's Jack Heflin Jersey sweet spot within the AFC North. For the first time in a while they don't open the season with any key player suspended (well, at least for now).Nothing has gone right for them in two years it seems, yet the have remained in the hunt for the AFC South crown until the end. Eventually that has to change. New GM Chris Ballard has added some teeth to the defense, and the offensive line is actually coming together and isn't as poor as many would have you believe. is the best quarterback in the division and he has sufficient weapons on that side of the ball. Give me the top quarterback, especially in a division as traditionally weak as this one. Malik Hooker has the chance to be special from Day 1, and if top corner can stay relatively healthy I like the Colts' chances of winning a tight race with the for the division.AFC wild cardsAll Andy Reid does is get to the postseason pretty much like every season, and while I still don't think puts this team over the top, JJ Molson Jersey they should be good for 10 wins or so. The defense remains legit and perhaps gets more out of a finally healthy . They have too many speedsters and play makers on offense not to be able to score quickly on that side of the ball, and they may have the best special teams in the entire league, which is easy to overlook but, trust me, can be the difference between succe s and failure in this league. Well coached, stable and consistent. is now another year removed from major knee surgeries and while he still lacks for proven talent around him, I am buying this defense. Baltimore has the potential to be one of the top defenses in football and will have to be. A secondary that languished for years added and in free agency, in the draft, and managed to keep at a lower rate, to go with the signing of and the drafting of a year ago. That's a ton of resources devoted to two position groups. Edge rusher could be the steal of the draft and while I still have some concerns about the pa s rush, I am also intrigued by and others. If any recently drafted receiver can do anything at all ( ??), then maybe they push the Steelers, but regardle s I believe they get back in.Next team upIt's hard not to like what young GM Jon Robinson is doing in Nashville. Steven Wirtel Jersey The Titans can run the ball down your throat, they are gradually adding weapons for , and they have totally revamped a once-lagging offensive line. Dick LeBeau is a master scheming on defense and while I'd like a few more playmakers on that side of the ball, we have to remember this is still a rebuilding franchise that couldn't beat anyone a few years ago. I wouldn't be shocked if they got in as a wild card. If they can survive an early stretch where four of their first five games are against 2016 playoff teams, then I'd fancy their chances a little more. If the had a quarterback I'd be more inclined to go with them, and I could see the having difficulty winning as many games as they did in 2016 as well.NFC division winnersSure, they could use another offensive lineman, but no roster is perfect. This group finds ways to win games week in and week out and if comes back from injury and gives them anything at all, I could see them as the top seed. 's contract is loaded with reasons for him to lay off the second helping of desert and should just now be entering his prime, if you can believe that. They still have better talent on offense than most give them credit for, and still enough alphas on defense to be downright stifling any given Sunday.

In the tweet, Kaela also included a picture of a bander ( ), a tool that's used to castrate farm animals.

Bell's decision apparently left the Steelers "baffled."If that's how things went down, that could explain why the Steelers have been so frustrated with their star running back. On the other hand, Bell's agent, Adisa Bakari claims that's not how the negotiation went down at all. Le'Veon Bell's agent Adisa Bakari said he and client never had any agreement with Steelers. "All stories to contrary are false," he said. Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) Either way, this has turned into an ugly situation for both parties involved.The Steelers aren't usually a team that airs their dirty laundry out in public, but they've been pretty displeased with the fact that Bell (the team's final practice of camp was on Friday).Last week, Steelers coach Mike Tomlin admitted that about the situation with Bell."I'm not comfortable. I think it would be nave to be comfortable," Tomlin said on Aug. 11, via the Steelers' official website. "If somebody is not here working and developing in the formal ways that we subscribe, then Trevon Diggs Jersey there are potential consequences for that. Consequences for him individually. There are consequences for us collectively. So, no I'm not (comfortable)." Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert also sounded disappointed that Bell didn't report for camp."It's beneficial for everybody to be in camp," Colbert said. "I'll argue that consistently. Training camp is important for the growth and preparedne s to be ready to play this game opening week."If Bell did turn down an offer that his agent hammered out, he apparently turned down some big bucks. Back in July, NFL.com roughly $60 million over five years. The new contract would have also included $30 million in guaranteed money through the first two years and a total of $42 million through three years. Although Bell never specifically talked numbers, he did mention that he turned down the Steelers' offer because he didn't ."The running back market definitely took a hit, and I can't be the guy who continues Dallas Cowboys Men Jersey to let it take a hit," Bell said. "We do everything. We block, we run, we catch the ball. Our value isn't where it needs to be. I'm taking it upon myself to open up some eyes and Jaylon Smith Jersey show the position is more valuable."If Bell had accepted the contract, his $12 million average annual salary would've blown the next closest running back contracts out of the water. Bell would've been pulling in roughly $4 million more than ($8.25 million per year) and ($8 million per year), the two running backs with the biggest multi-year deals in the NFL right now. One of Bell's former teammates in Pittsburgh, Ike Taylor, says that Bell shot down the deal . Basically, Bell wants to be paid as a No. 1 running back and a No. 2 wide receiver because that's in line with the numbers he puts up on the field. Bell was the Steelers' second leading receiver in 2016 with 75 catches for 616 yards and two touchdowns.If Bell was demanding $15 million per year, you Alfred Morris Jersey can't blame the Steelers for balking at the price. Bell's agent was probably dumbfounded when his client decided to turn down the deal he worked out on July 17.Despite the fact that he turned down $12 million per year, Bell said "I'm not a real greedy guy. I don't play football just for money or things like that," Bell said, via ESPN.com. "I just want to be valued. Wherever it is -- whether its $15 million or lower or higher, whatever it is - I think we will get to an agreement eventually."The only agreement Bell will be making this year is for the one-year franchise tender. Once Bell reports to Pittsburgh and signs that, he'll be paid a total of $12.12 million for the 2017 season. Although Bell is expected to report before Week 1, no one .">

The Collective Bargaining Agreement's $210 daily amount for participating in a team's voluntary offseason workout program is included in the cap numbers.Each NFL team's actual salary cap (known as adjusted salary cap) is typically different from the NFL's set amount because unused cap room can be carried over from one year to the next year and other adjustments can further increase or decrease cap space. The actual salary cap is currently $167 million. The Eagles are operating with a bigger adjusted salary cap thanks to more of a rollover from the 2016 league year. The achievement of not-likely-to-be-earned incentives that had to be accounted for nearly wiped out New Larry Rountree III Jersey England's unused cap room.

The Eagles gave Jeffery, who has Philadelphia's largest cap number at $11.2 million, a four-year, $52 million extension late in the season. New England has never been a team under head coach Bill Belichick to make a big financial commitment to wide receivers.

When you go back and sit through it over and over, you know, 'I damn sure can't get Zach Ertz Jersey a do-over. But I can learn from it.' I won't apologize for how aggre sive we play and our style and attitude of where we're headed. But I have learned from that experience." And despite the Monday-morning quarterbacking, the i sue wasn't a Falcons' defense short on experience but short on depth. "That wasn't it," Quinn said of his young players folding under pre sure. "The guys were Jake Plummer Jersey ga sed. We had never played in the 90s (snap count). We were not traumatized at all. You could tell there was nothing left in the tank. They would come to the sideline in the Zach Allen Jersey fourth quarter and nobody was talking because there was nothing left." That's worth remembering: The Falcons' defense Brady for much of the game. But they were also on the field for a jaw-dropping 99 snaps. As the Pats were mounting that historic comeback, the Falcons' were ga sed, and worse, there wasn't much they could do about it. Despite getting so close, Quinn isn't taking anything for granted; it's why during minicamp last weekend he wore two black wristbands that read, "Embrace The Suck," which has become an offseason rallying cry of sorts.

Funghi Shelby Harris Jersey who entered Sunday's game tied for 10th in the league in forced turnovers. Buffalo actually forced three more turnovers than Pittsburgh, which is second in the NFL with 35 takeaways after recording two turnovers against the Bills."It's something that we've focused on all year," linebacker said of the Bills' focus on forcing turnovers. "(Turnovers) normally come in bunches. So hopefully this starts a trend for us to where we can start consistently getting two to three a game to really help obviously our offense and our team win games." Another focus for Buffalo's defense was on stopping Hodges, who caught the unit's attention earlier in the week with his apparent failure to properly give them their due."(Hodges) had comments at the beginning of the week, (calling us) a normal defense," said Adrian Killins Jr. Jersey Lawson, who recorded a sack of Hodges while also tallying two tackles for lo s. "Just a normal defense doesn't catch three or four picks (and record) five sacks. That's not some normal D."The Bills defense definitely isn't normal, but is it good enough to get Buffalo to its first Super Bowl in over a quarter century? Bills defensive tackle didn't exactly say it, but he certainly feels that way. "We're the best defense in the league, and we put that on display tonight," said Phillips, who led both teams with two sacks. "We work, we play for each other, and at the end of the day, we're just trying to get the chips to fall the way they fell tonight. We needed a big turnover game, and we finally made it happen. We play great defense, but we haven't turned the ball over enough. We did tonight."Phillips Dalton Risner Jersey wasn't done with his verbal a sault on Hodges, going as far as to openly question whether or not the Steelers may make a change at quarterback for Pittsburgh's next game."We definitely heard about, like Shaq said earlier, about how (Hodges) said we're a normal defense, we don't do anything special, and he should be able to handle us, and blah blah blah," Phillips said. "That's just real disrespectful. We'll see if starts next week." A portion of NFL fans -- the ones who like to see high-scoring games -- were likely offended by what they saw Sunday night, as the Bills and Steelers played the type of game that will likely be required by whoever comes out of the AFC this winter. The Bills and Steelers are just two of five AFC defenses that are good enough to lead their teams to the promised land.The defense, despite being overshadowed by MVP front-runner , has complemented its dynamic offense since the acquisition of cornerback . The , after having one of the league's worst run defenses during the first half of the season, have come on strong during the team's current three-game winning streak. The most consistent defense in the NFL resides in Foxborough, as the Patriots' defense will lead the way if New England is going to become the second team in NFL history to play in four consecutive Super Bowls.While the Bills' defense spearheaded Buffalo's playoff clinching victory, Pittsburgh's defense put forth another sparkling effort. second quarter interception stalled one Bills po se sion, while Watt's forced fumble of running back inside Pittsburgh's red zone ended the Bills' first drive of the second half. In all, the Steelers defense held the Bills to just 261 total yards and just 139 yards pa sing from quarterback Josh Allen. The main difference in this game was the Steelers' inability to turn their turnovers into points. With their rushing attack stuck in neutral -- the Steelers rushed for just 51 Justin Simmons Jersey yards on 15 attempts -- Pittsburgh failed to score on either of its forced turnovers. In fact, Pittsburgh turned the ball over itself after getting to Buffalo's 10-yard line following Nelson's second-quarter pick. Instead of getting a momentum-turning score at the end of the half, safety Jordan Hoyer's recovery of a fumble by Pittsburgh rookie receiver preserved Buffalo's 7-3 halftime lead.After allowing their first touchdown of the night (the Steelers marched 69 yards in just seven plays on the opening drive of the second half), the Bills' defense responded with a forced punt (following Watt's forced fumble) and White's interception that set up game-tying field goal with 12:27 left.The Bills' defense didn't waste any time getting the ball back to their offense. After Lawson helped force a punt by tackling Steelers running back for a 7-yard lo s, Buffalo's offense marched 70 yards on six plays while taking the lead for good on 14-yard touchdown reception with 7:55 left. While Allen contributed on both of Buffalo's touchdowns (he opened the scoring with a one-yard run in the first quarter), he was complemented by a Bills rushing attack that ran for 130 yards on 31 carries, with Singletary cutting and slicing through Pittsburgh's defense for 87 of those yards. "(The Steelers defense was) overflowing a lot, but the O-line definitely was getting a lot of push and just creating lanes, even the receivers was getting blocks on the second level, so it was really easy," Singletary said after the game.Don't take Singletary's "really easy" quote as a shot at Pittsburgh's defense, as he was also asked if the Steelers have one of the best defenses he's faced this season."I would say so, definitely," said Singletary, who specifically pointed to the Steelers' defensive front as the best part of the unit. Buffalo's defense then closed the door, recording two interceptions of Hodges on Pittsburgh's final two po se sions. Poyer came up with an end zone interception of Hodges on fourth-and-7 with 1:23 remaining, while cornerback iced NFL Denver Broncos Jersey the game with his pick of Hodges with six seconds left."We knew that (turnovers) were gonna be a big part of the game," Lawson said.

Funghi Tarik Cohen Jersey s rush in the NFL? (The Falcons are back at training camp! Don't MISS anything as they prepare to try and return to the playoffs -- ) In 2015, the Falcons finished with 19 sacks, hurried the pa ser 70 times, and recorded 75 hits on 561 pa s attempts, a 29.2 percent succe s rate. Last season, that last mark rose to 39 percent, as did total sacks (34, the most since their 37 Andy Dalton Jersey sacks 10 seasons ago), over 655 pa s attempts.But advanced statistics tells a bleaker story. According to Football Outsiders' DVOA metric, the Falcons produced a mere 190 pre sure plays out of 720 in total, a succe s rate of just 29.4 percent, ranking No. 20 overall in football. They took a step in the right direction, but heading into this offseason, the organization knew that they would have to provide Beasley some help in the supporting cast. That they did, drafting and , a pair of collegiate edge rushers, and signing veteran tackle , a 340-pound behemoth who routinely attracts double- and triple-teams of blockers.Among that trio, Poe is the one expected to make an impact immediately. From 2013 to 2014, Poe wrecked opposing blockers for 10.5 sacks. In the two years after then, however, that number fell to just 2.5, a decrease that likely was the result of a back surgery. But now, considerably lighter and presumably healthy, the team believes they got the best inside pa s rusher in the busine s.But that the Falcons picked two more rushers with their first two draft selections this year indicates to what degree the team is looking to addre s this position. In 28 games Gale Sayers Jersey at , McKinley emerged as the college game's best at pre suring quarterbacks, bringing heat on the pa ser on 21.4 percent of his rushes, according to Pro Football Focus, while adding 10 sacks and 18 tackles for lo s. He has a burst off the line, the hands to fight off blockers, and the agility to spin out of blocks. ' succe sor at LSU, Riley didn't play a 12-game season until he was a senior, but proved most productive with the increase in playing time, grabbing 93 tackles (the Tigers' most), nine tackles for lo s, and the SEC's sixth-most tackles per game (7.8). At Tashaun Gipson Jersey 6-foot-1, some scouts consider him undersized for the position, but he has the sideline speed to rush the line and the instincts to find the right gap to exploit.Suddenly, the Falcons have a very promising rotation, with Poe and (three sacks in 2016, and three more against in the Super Bowl) on the inside, McKinley bringing heat from the edge, and Riley and sack-leader Beasley roaming free behind them. This new supporting cast enables the team to reverse one of their self-profe sed weakne ses last season. Head coach Dan Quinn says he relied too often on sending the blitz in order to get adequate pre sure on quarterbacks, but this season hopes he can make a greater impact by rushing just his front four."That allows you the flexibility to do things," Quinn said. "When you play a four-man front, you want to make sure that you can affect the quarterback in the pa s game with your rush and be able to drop and play four underneath, or however you want to play your coverages, without having to devote an extra player to do that."If Quinn and his coaches Bilal Nichols Jersey can figure out the right rotation, the Falcons can build on one of the most improved pa s rushes in football, and maybe hold a lead or two in the postseason.">
