The only way the NFL can play a full season is if they play all the games in Toronto and Vancouver. Throw in 2 CFL all star teams and lets get er done!

Eagles coach Doug Pederson has tested positive for the coronavirus, according to league sources.

Pederson convened a previously unscheduled team meeting Sunday night to share the news with his players. He did this after receiving a second positive test result confirming the diagnosis.

Pederson, 52, is asymptomatic and feeling fine, according to a source.

Of course they are

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll acknowledged that the team has interest in Antonio Brown, saying general manager John Schneider has been monitoring the All-Pro wide receiver's "complex" situation.

Carroll went a step further when asked about the team's interest in another suspended wide receiver, saying the Seahawks are "very open" to a reunion with Josh Gordon.

Gordon, sure, I guess, though not sure what has changed since last time he was in the team. Brown would be an idiotic move.

Part of this yes is Carroll and Schneider fine with taking on project players, but this is a megamall, not a project. This both actually seems driven more by Wilson and his weird vibe in trying to himself bring in social outcasts and strays as his own pet project to reclamate this past few years. Seattle was the only team to look at Kaepernick a couple years ago, and that was in part to Wilson being fine with it.

Complicating things is that Wilson also thinks he needs a top end wide receiver, when he's never really worked well and consistent with a receiver other then Baldwin (tight ends are Wilson's main target guys), and almost won back to back Super Bowls with a receiving corps most would not know more than 2 names of.

Juwan James in a shocking turn of events has opted out of 2020 after opting out of 2019. Good for him I say, money for nothing is always the goal.

I can’t imagine anyone can surpass him as Elway’s worst FA signing. Highest paid RT in football and will never play a complete game for the team.

Y’know, I really do appreciate the way NHL contracts aren’t framed as having made someone the X-highest paid Y in league history.

He apparently missed meetings and was not liked by his teammates.

@AdamSchefer:
Ravens are moving on from Pro Bowl S Earl Thomas today, sources tell ESPN. They either will release him for conduct detrimental to the team - punching S Chuck Clark - or trade him. Dallas is the leading contender if he’s released, per sources. But his time in Baltimore is over.

Really the only team who should sign him is the Titans, since of course Derrick Henry owns his soul.

Not a shock, Seattle by their nature has brought in guys under PC that have attitude issues and or think too highly of themselves, but have the organizational and team support system to handle that and instead of being distractions, the team is able channel that to make them play up to their talent abilities.

Sherman, Bennett, Lynch, Thomas, Frank Clark, Harvin etc, and why Seattle kicked tired 2 years ago on Kaepernick and Antonio Brown’s name always creeps up. A lot of other teams can not handle the person or personality like Seattle can (and obviously Seattle was done after that middle finger, which Carroll returned in the post game presser below), as the Ravens have found out here.

Couldn't even get a 7th round pick for an 1100 yard rusher on his rookie contract so I imagine he's going to pass through waivers and become a free agent. I wouldn't be shocked if the Patriots or Seahawks come calling as they don't seem to be afraid of players with character issues.

I mean forget botching all those picks, they were an early whistle away from very likely being in the Super Bowl in 2018, and now two years later they are pretty clearly the worst franchise in the league. Pretty spectacular collapse since then.

I kinda doubt this, the Saints are all in for this year and Kamara is still on his rookie deal. But if someone wants to throw a first rounder then you probably take that.

Definitely. Between that, and the fact that New Orleans born, LSU alum Leonard Fournette is now available, you can imagine the rumour mill with Saints Twitter right now.
