I think this is highly unlikely but an interesting read, none of the less. To give up on Garappolo for a year or two of Brady seems ridiculous.

They need to find someone better than Garoppolo

The NFLPA has historically little success in the courtroom, if memory serves ... but this will be a slam dunk.
What player is ever going to want to sign there? When FA comes along, they will be offering up "confederate money". No one is going to take it.
this is the statement the nflpa put out already
also just in general - as ineffective as the NFLPA is - thank fuck the players have a union because if they didnt the owners would walk all over them even more to the detriment of the league and fans

Tf is wrong with the Jets?

That's true. I'm happy NFL owners have an element of control over the players because I do think it makes the sport better for fans across the board. I say that because I long felt like the all powerful MLBPA destroyed the sport for many years. But the players need a level of protection and what the Jets are doing is criminal.

See? Joe Douglas should've stayed with us and the Jets wouldn't have this issue, now wouldn't they?
GREG ROBINSONT, CLEVELAND BROWNS
Browns LT Greg Robinson won't start Week 8 against the Patriots.
Robinson has been benched coming off the bye week. This isn't a surprise, but it leaves swingman Justin McCray on Baker Mayfield's blindside. The Browns are expected to be active in trade talks for a left tackle ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline.

As long as they don't land either Trent Williams or Solder I'm good. I need Baker to be humiliated till he decides to quit and join the XFL.

Trent Williams is who I've been worried about, but the Skins already turned down an offer once.
Brady has offered his number (12) to Sanu. Not sure if he is going to take it though.

A number is only as good as the player that dons it. Nobody understands it better than Brady. Good for him because it's a really classy and selfless move to welcome a new team mate.
We also have to look at what Humphrey did in giving up his #29 to ET. Sure he accepted a gift from ET for his mother's charity, but that was for charity. He never fought the idea. Very classy on his part too.
i mean would the pats allow it lol - that number is clearly going to be retired when brady finally retires
it definitely should be
ANTONIO BROWN Former WR, UNSIGNED FREE AGENT
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports Antonio Brown is "in a standoff" with the league over his playing status.
Brown said earlier this month he hoped to have his status cleared up "in a few weeks." He's expected to interview with the league at some point, but there hasn't been any movement on that front. Brown could get a second chance when his off-field situation is resolved. The odds remain against him returning this year.

Per Kelechi Osemele’s agents: Osemele’s surgery went well yesterday, but damage to shoulder was more extensive than anticipated. His representatives and NFLPA are now considering specific action against the Jets’ team doctor for violations of State Medical Board Regulations.
good. The Jets should lose draft picks.....maybe a 3rd, which they could give to us for the Mosley debacle.
LIL'JORDAN HUMPHREY WR, UNSIGNED FREE AGENT
Saints waived WR Lil'Jordan Humphrey.
The Saints activated WR Krishawn Hogan to the active roster to take Humphrey's spot. Humphrey is a practice squad candidate. At Texas, Humphrey showed some playmaking ability, but he showed up at the Combine with 4.75 speed and a poor 33.5-inch vertical.

MATT RYANQB, ATLANTA FALCONS
Matt Ryan has been ruled out for Week 8 against the Seahawks.
This will be Ryan's first missed start in over a decade. His ankle injury wasn't worth playing through with the Falcons out of the playoff picture, especially with a Week 9 bye awaiting. Atlanta will, unfortunately, be starting 38-year-old Matt Schaub, who has 14 passing touchdowns to 20 interceptions since 2013. Julio Jones, Calvin Ridley, Austin Hooper, and Devonta Freeman's outlooks obviously have to be downgraded for this week.
