This is about as surprising as Trump and Elon having a falling out. I'm surprised it took this long actually as it always seemed like AB was a guy that was going to spend some time behind bars.

Former NFL wide receiver#Antonio Brown#faces a charge of attempted murder with a firearm, according to a warrant reviewed by several media outlets. The charge is based on a shooting Brown was allegedly involved in during a celebrity boxing event in Miami last month.

Wanted to look to see if it was a new incident or the same one from last month

I somehow missed or forgot the news that Hernandez killed himself in prison, and was suffering from CTE.

[rubecube]

I really hate that local governments keep getting strong-armed like this. It's one of the grossest aspects of NA sports.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders was cited by police Tuesday morning for driving 101 mph, according to police records obtained by ESPN.

He does not sound entitled at all.

Tucker suspended 10 games.

Looks like they are going all-in on Rodgers last season.

Giving up Fitzpatrick as part of the trade kind of negates the "all-in" view. This seems like a neutral trade at best for the Steelers.

The link didn't show the return. Yeah this seems kind of questionable for the Steelers. I think I would rather have Fitzpatrick. Smith had a nice season in 2024 so maybe Steelers think he's a valuable part of the deal?

[devo22]

Arthur Smith LOVES Jonnu Smith, so I'm not surprised he's a part of this. But the rest makes zero sense. You could argue that Minkah has regressed a bit over the last couple of years, but this still creates a huge hole at free safety. They have no one there ... DeShon Elliott is a decent strong safety, but that's about it. Unless they think Juan Thornhill can be a good starter, but I doubt that.

This offseason is a nightmare.

This is kinda neat

The NFL and senior leaders of the NFL Players Association struck an unusual confidentiality agreement that hid the details of an arbitration agreement from players, including a finding that league executives had urged team owners to reduce player compensation, multiple sources told ESPN.

NBD just the head of the NFLPA colluding with the NFL to keep things hidden from union members. That's straight up insane, I'm shocked the guy hasn't resigned already.

Not really surprising as it's unions doing union things.

Some teams just really know how to pick them.

Cleveland Browns rookie running back Quinshon Judkins was arrested on a domestic violence and battery charge in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on Saturday, according to the Fort Lauderdale Police Department and Broward County arrest records.

A bond amount was not immediately set for the 21-year-old Judkins, who was in jail as of Saturday night and scheduled to have his initial court appearance Sunday morning. The charge is described as "touch or strike/battery/domestic violence," according to the arrest record. The charge is a misdemeanor, Fort Lauderdale Police Sgt. David Soika told ESPN.

Soika said officers responded to a residence at approximately 9 a.m. ET on Saturday and determined battery had occurred after which they made contact with Judkins and took him into custody.

The Browns said they are "aware and gathering more details," according to a team spokesperson. The NFL is "aware of the matter but will decline further comment," a league official told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Are the Bengals complete morons? What are they doing with their first round pick? They try to sneak in voidable language into his rookie contract that isn't standard so he won't sign it.

Shemar Stewart might actually go back to college and right back into the draft next year?!

Way to make your team a place to avoid (even more).

[devo22]

funny thing is, they drafted a new edge when their star rusher Trey Hendrickson had the audacity to ask for the money he very clearly deserves. Now they have managed to piss off both.

In other news, Jets have locked up Garrett Wilson (4 yrs, $130m) and Sauce Gardner (4 yrs, $120m). Happy for them, it feels like they've really turned a corner for a change.
