Maybe Worthy got arrested just so everyone can forget that Rice is probably going to be suspended by the NFL for last off-season's issues.

Looking at the Worthy article led me to click on the lunar eclipse article (wasn't sure if it was last week or this week) which led me to the clickbait article that taught me that, yes, South Carolina still executes people via firing squad. Mind blown.
(Trained) Firing squad is probably a lot more humane than “mix of unregulated chemicals that no one really makes and end up getting sourced from Temu.l
Browns giving garret a record deal is not how I expected today to go
I bet the Bengals GM regrets saying that he was gonna make Chase the highest paid non QB in the market now. That’s $5m per more expensive than it was a few weeks ago
The Bills finally get out of that truly terrible Von Miller contract but they’re still gonna be paying for it this year

i believe that 3 states still allow the option
i would choose firing squad over drowing on my own fluids and blood fwiw

and i believe this is the three body problem simple stated in another way
also Percy Wetmore may just be the most sarcastic character name ever christened by Steven King
lol i'm in the middle of reading The Three Body Problem now
i know
I think I'm choosing the injection given a choice. Fall asleep and never wake? In.
The firing squad made Gary Gilmore's last words immortal.
I haven't talked to anyone who has witnessed a firing squad but I've talked to quite a few people who have witnessed executions by other methods. I haven't heard of one that appealed to me yet.
Davante Adams to Rams
Holy heck Josh Allen got the bag.
Interesting structure - $5m less than Dak AAV but large guaranteed. Will be interesting to see the details but it seems like a very team friendly deal
Mahomes will get Re-structured this offseason too so it will be very interesting to see what his looks like. Might put pressure on him to take less per year too
2/46-26.
really interesting IMO.
Kupp is on the roster right now and is owed $39.8m cash for the next two years....albeit the cap hit is higher at $56m for those same two years.
But...when you consider that Kupp has $22m in dead cap...assuming they would cut or trade him with a post June 1 designation (for those that don't know, this means they would be spreading the dead cap hit out over the 2 years left on his contract at $11m per) it means that signing Adams and cutting Kupp will actually cost them more in both cash AND cap for the next two years (unless they have some void years in Davante's contract)
they must really be down on Kupp from an athleticism or health perspective
DK to the stealers and paid for his time
No QB and giving DK that deal is a bold move fur sure
Either rodgers or Darnold coming there in tandem I have to imagine

rumours that they're in on Darnold, which would make a ton of sense IMO.
the Pickens/DK mix will be one to watch - Pickens is a child but also seems to believe he's an alpha and a #1 and will be hoping/expecting to get paid. Can imagine he won't be super keen on this news and he might be on the way out
Harold Landry to the Pats 3/43-26. Makes sense given Vrabel and all their needs
it feels like the Titans were incredibly poorly coached last season so there might be some upside on their players that underperformed in 24

interesting
didn't think of this angle

all these franchises making proactive moves and the Bungles sitting here w their thumbs up their arse
not having Chase done before all this **** started going down is costing them so much fkn money
crappy ass ownership group
Speaking as someone who sat through the summer of Aiyuk you’re going to be JUST FINE
I don't think they will or should do it but I wonder what the trade market would be for Chase.
Would someone give up a 1 and a 2? Probably. Because then you start thinking....$40m extra on the cap plus two cost controlled and hopefully good players and maybe Tee can prove he actually is a #1.
Also can replace Micah Parsons for Chase in this example
