Yeah, you might not wanna back the Brinks truck up for a guy you think you have to force to study. If Murray found it "disrespectful" he should've forced the language out of the contract. Might be a decent chance his agent didn't bother to tell him about that fine print.

I find paying someone over $46M a year disrespectful.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports the Bucs "fear" C Ryan Jensen suffered a season-ending knee injury. 

Jensen hurt his knee during a training camp session, and Tampa coaches were immediately concerned it would be a long-term injury. Losing the leader of Tom Brady's offensive line is a nightmarish way to kick off training camp, as the win-now Bucs have done a great job protecting the 44-year-old Brady during his two seasons in Tampa. The Bucs are reportedly interested in veteran C J.C. Tretter, a longtime standout for the Browns.

Murray's contract provision required he do his homework for 4 hours a week.

How the hell hard is it to watch film for 4 hours a week? Especially when you're getting paid that kind of money.

I mean sh-t, Luke probably watched a couple hours a day.

Chase Claypool left practice with an apparent right arm injury.

Claypool was spotted holding his arm in pain before walking off with a trainer. Coming off a down year, Claypool was poised for a bounceback with quarterback play that fits his skill-set better. Any missed time in training camp could hamper his ability to get on the same page as Mitchell Trubisky, the likely Week 1 starter. George Pickens, the team's second-round receiver from Georgia, would immediately jump into a larger role if Claypool is sidelined for an extended period of time. Pickens is firmly on the radar as a late-round dart throw.

The Jags cut rookie kicker Andrew Mevis… after he drilled a bystander with an errant kick today.

Apparently Mevis missed three field goal attempts by a wide margin and one of them hit former Dallas Cowboys head coach, Dave Campo, in the shoulder. Apparently Campo now works for a local sports talk radio show in the Jax area.

The fate of the Jags kicking game now rests in the hands of former Panthers, Ryan Santoso and Elliott Fry.

Yikes! 😬

That sounds like something out of a bad movie.

I really hope that Zane is our next franchise kicker so we don't have to worry about that for a while. These last few years of QBs are frustrating but so has the kicker issue.

Regarding Steelers qb competition. They brought in Trubisky and took a first round QB and are still saying things like this about Rudolph. 

Also Pickett is clearly behind both in snaps.

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/07/30/mason-rudolph-has-a-great-shot-at-winning-steelers-qb-job-oc-matt-canada-says/

“Mason’s getting the second reps right now, almost equal to, maybe slightly less than Mitch. He’s being given a very fair shot. To this point in camp, it might have been exactly equal. Mason has made a lot of plays at times, he’s played very well at times for us. He’s got a great shot at it. He’s being treated that way. His history with our plays, with our system, is a positive for him,” Canada said.

Our approach is not that different than the can do no wrong Steelers 

The Steelers aren't employing the worst starting quarterback of the last several years and giving him reps ahead of their rookie. So not same.

Also Pickett is already struggling against the 3s, pretty much how I assumed he would look. So uncomfortable in the pocket with no contact allowed

Yeah not surprised that's a tough test for any rookie QB. They've had enough success though if he's a bust that's just the universe evening things out. Side note notice how close to the action the person is filming this. Must be nice.

There's a 57 year old man in a Chicago Sports bar that still smells like cigarettes from 1996 pounding a beer at 10am that would argue Trubisky caused the down fall of the Bulls somehow lol

LOLOL. He looks exactly as predicted by a lot of us. Even if Corral doesn't become a Wilson we did not draft that for a QB in the 1st.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By strato · Posted

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
