so Trent Williams has ended his holdout, but also told reporters that he doesn't trust the organization anymore. Says the growth was cancerous, although the team at the time said it wasn't. Says holding out until the deadline was vindictive.

Is there a worse run organization than the Skins?

Well the Cards competed tonight. Bad challenge by Klingsbury to burn a timeout for no reason.

Maybe Jets? Not pretty the way they handled Osemele's injury as there could be legal action against the Jets and their doctors.

Josh Gordon to the Seahawks. From one legal weed state to another at least.

[Rapoport] The #Seahawks have claimed former #Patriots WR Josh Gordon, source said. QB Russell Wilson gets his wish.

Flash, DK and Lockett pretty scary WR core.

Steelers have FINALLY released Donte Moncrief. 4 receptions on 15 targets, 18 yards, healthy scratched twice. Amazing he lasted this long.

Not so sure about scary. Metcalf may turn out very good and is good now, but still has a long way to go. Lockett is small, and Gordon is a wild card week to week.

Wilson’s favourite consistent receiver is the safety valve of a TE position over the years. Or, a scrappy receiver like Baldwin.
It’s the reason they tried the Jimmy Graham experiment after Zach Miller got too many concussions. Graham was too focused on though by defenses. Baldwin is retired.

This year, Dissly out, Luke Willson is a capable backup but Seattle’s recieving corps in general are good but not great players...and hoping they can get a dynamic threat like Gordon (recall they were also in on Antonio Brown before the Pats got him) to hopefully catch lighting in a bottle the rest of the year and into the playoffs.

7:30 kickoff from London....love it. All day football.

Jags/Texans with the winner trying to stay in reach of the Colts.

Before they claimed wide receiver Josh Gordon on waivers Friday, the Seattle Seahawks had been doing their due diligence on free-agent receiver Antonio Brown, league sources told ESPN.

Even star quarterback Russell Wilson was pushing the Seahawks to sign Brown before they claimed Gordon, according to sources.
Wow...wish it had happened.

All day football sounds nice until one of the worst games of the season breaks out. Don't know how the London fans keep paying, NFL mostly sends utter #### games over there.

It's not so bad if you're a Texans fan like me! Watson is really developing into a top QB. He does something special every week.

I hope the NFL doesn't renew this London garbage. One more year and their agreement is done. These London games are awful.

Thing is...this had all kinds of potential to be great.

The NFL cant know 6 months ahead (when skeds are released) who will show up for that day and who wont.

Not a chance....they make way too much money from this endeavour. A national audience when there is zero competition from other sports on TV.

London will likely become the home of the Jags or an expansion team in the very near future.

Man are the Bears a brutal football team.

Great defense but continue to take dumb penalties and Mitchell Trubisky...just...yikes.

Did Minnesota seriously just waste a challenge on PI for a FOUR yard gain? Holy ####.

2 minutes left in the first half and the Bears have -10 yards total offense.

Trubisky definitely sucks big time, but Matt Nagy sure doesn't look like an offensive genius. Could be a house cleaning for the Bears this offseason.
