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.

    • He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.  
    • This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.
    • I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
