Not surprised. He missed the last couple preseason games and was barely practicing. We just held out putting him on IR before the cuts because he should be back ready for the season.DT back with Pats.
Harry on IR

Rosen will end up David Carr mark II after 80 sacks and 150+ hits when he inevitably inherits the starting spot.

He's been concussed too many times.
Zeke, Dallas closing in on a 6-year, $90m contract extension apparently.
Great, now for Gordon
Talks with him are suspended until after the season. He either gets traded, caves or holds out till week 10.
Zeke deserves the big money
Anyone know if that Saban/BB documentary will be on UK NFL Gamepass?
I know it's on HBO but so is Hard Knocks.

Goff extension...
4 years, $134m / $33.5m per year, $110m guaranteed.
Record on guaranteed money that. Previous highest ever was Wentz on $107.9m.

Wow!!!
I think he’s good, but not $110m guaranteed good. If you’re getting that much money, you can’t be having the coaches telling you the reads through the mics all the time. I think this will add pressure on him, will be interesting how he reacts.

They really are in win now mode then, cos you start getting close to cap limits once your franchise QB is on a second contract. So much easier when they are on a rookie contract.
Yeah, he looked pedestrian without McVay but that was under Fisher and in his rookie season to be fair to him. He's thrown 60 TDs and 19 INTs in the regular season over the last two seasons with QB ratings over 100, so the improvement is definitely there. Maybe he even takes another step this season into the truly elite tier.
I think if McVay stays with the Rams for the duration of Goff's contract, he'll be an elite QB. Worth all that money, that's another question though. Right now it feels like McVay could make Nathan Peterman look like a QB1.
Chargers are asking for a 1st and a 5th-round pick for Gordon. That's a pretty hefty price considering that you need to pay the guy as well after you've traded for him.
Don't think the Eagles or any other team are willing to give that up right now.

Now that would be some fecking achievement
That's serious capital considering most teams are finding valuable RB's in the 2nd / 3rd round.
You can’t give up that much for a RB.

BOOM.
Next up to the plate... Dak Prescott
With $110m guaranteed, pressure is the last thing I’d feel. I’d be the most loosey goosey mf’er in the league.
Even more baffling yet brilliant
In other news - Hard Knocks was utter wank
I need Gordon to sign ASAP or my team is toast
Cowboys Superbowl Champs!!! Here we go! (multiple fingers crossed)
You'd have to think the contract is heavy upfront though. Which modern-day RB, especially a 300+ touches workhorse like Zeke, stays in the NFL fof 10 years or more... Shady has just eclipsed the 10-year mark and he looked washed last season (in Buffalo, granted). Not everyone is Frank Gore like.

Can’t stay out of the drama that guy
Really starting to dislike AB. Great player but behaves like an absolute tit.
Jesus, at least OBJ was a lovable drama queen while with us.
AB is an enormous ego-maniac, similar to other NFL players. However, he's been the undisputed top WR for years now. He works his ass off and is playing the business side as well as the game side.
Starting...
He is already disliked by me. Amazingly though, he finds new ways day after day to reinforce.
I’m not sure how much of his drama is “business” related. He’s a thorn in the back side and clearly extremely disruptive to whichever team he’s on.
Nah he's just a twat.
Mayock better be careful or else AB might hire some goons to leave a fish head in his freezer.
The money/fine stuff is all business related. His helmet BS was his way of not playing pre-season snaps and recovering from his self-imposed foot injuries. Hard Knocks shows how little Gruden and Mayock were worried about his helmet situation and more so that he's training and keeping himself in shape and doing all that he can to get ready. ESPN and all other sports media outlets blow it up because it gets attention when there's nothing else out there in the NFL worthy of clicks.
Sorry but that’s total BS. You don’t need to watch hard knocks, nor do you need to read media articles, to understand that AB is a tool and whilst clearly a top quality receiver, comes with serious disruption and baggage.
