Saw Goodell talking at Panthers camp on NFL Network

JR was chilling in his golf cart and I noticed he's looking a lot heavier than he used to be. I would think a guy not long removed from having a heart replacement would try to keep himself at a better state of fitness. Kinda disappointing, IMO. I hope he's not taking the new ticker for granted. :-\

JR has gained weight, but I don't think it's an unhealthy amount of weight... good to see him thriving.

What was the point of this thread again?

Just an observation. Don't interpret this as smack talk or anything like that.

I was just observing that he has put on quite a bit of weight since prior to his heart transplant. I wouldn't at all consider it a "healthy" amount of weight for a man coming off a heart transplant and I'd wager any heart surgeon would say the same thing.

Indeed that is what I said. It was on NFL Network. In the background behind Goodell was JR sitting in his golf cart looking the heaviest I've ever seen him.

This is what happens when you drink McDonald's tea instead of Bojangles sweet tea.

wouldn't doubt it at all if there's a drug he's taking that causes weight gain..

Also, he could be having some minor problems. Some could be fluid retention with this heat. I'm impressed he was out there today. I only go out at night or l look like a blow fish.

I doubt very seriously he takes his new heart for granted. I don't know why anyone would even think he does.

Hey, I don't know JR from Adam. I've known people to have monumental surgeries on par with JR's and take it for granted afterward. I'm not judging JR, just saw the video and brought it up.

    • I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.
    • I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches. 
    • At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
