He's a 31 year old CB with a $8.5M cap hit with $6.5M in cap savings if they cut him and he's declined to the point that they were considering moving him to safety this off-season. This isn't surprising. 

But yeah, like the previous poster mentioned, DG vs. OBJ is gonna be some FUN poo to watch. Especially after that contract the Bucs just handed Mike Evans.

Gettleman’s got a TON of leverage after Odell’s coke video dropped.

No he doesn't. OBJ has never failed a drug test and isn't in the substance abuse program. If he hit the open market there would be no shortage of bidders. If anything, that Evans contract just ensured no extension will be reached this off-season and we'll get to see another Gettleman franchise tag showdown next off-season.

We’ll see.

If the league office decides to do something about it, it’ll be interesting to see how it goes.

FWIW, the Giants FO has already been made aware of that video. We’ll see where it goes from here.

What can they do about it? He's never failed a test. The video doesn't show him obviously partaking in any illegal substance. He can easily claim that blunt it a cigar. Nothing will come of this as long as OBJ continues to pass his tests in the NFL's farce of a testing program. NFL substance tests are more IQ tests than substance tests. Players know the periods when they can be tested. No one actually wants to see players suspended. Not the NFL, not the owners, GMs, or coaches. Not the players, agents, or fans. It's all for the sake of appearances and the only people who get caught up are idiots and people with actual substance abuse issues.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
