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.

    • It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ    
    • I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......
