The jackpot for Trevor Lawrence?

In an interview with NFL Network, Trent Baalke (GM, Jaguars) says discussions for a contract extension for Trevor Lawrence (QB, Jaguars) have begun.

“We started discussions. None of this is going to be done overnight. We will try to work diligently between the two parties to reach an agreement. »

Despite a 2023 season that did not meet expectations, the Jaguars therefore seem to be committed to Lawrence for the long term. Moreover, earlier yesterday, Doug Perderson (HC, Jagaurs) reportedly declared that he has the right quarterback, and that it is his job to make sure he improves.

Free agency

– The Ravens don't seem very inclined to let Justin Madubuike (DT) test the market. During a press conference, the franchise explained that it wanted to find a long-term agreement with the defender. If this is not the case before March 13, it seems clear that Baltimore will place the franchise tag on the player.

– On the Chicago side, many eyes are on Jaylon Johnson. The young cornerback will be free in a few days. In theory, because rumors in the corridors already announce that an agreement with the player is close.

– Brett Veach (general manager, Kansas City Chiefs) announced in a press conference that the Chiefs should use the franchise tag this season. Chris Jones? The Jarius Sneed? The bets are open.

– The Buccaneers want to do everything to keep Mike Evans (WR). In any case, that’s what their general manager announced during a meeting with the media on Wednesday.

– Jonnu Smith (TE, 50 receptions 582 yards, 3 touchdowns) was cut by the Falcons, who will save $6.5 million on payroll. Steelers fans, get ready!

New rule for the trade deadline?

According to ProFootballTalk, the Browns and other teams around the league want to propose a change to the deadline for trading players. Currently positioned at the end of week 8, these teams want the new limit to be set at week 10.

A period of two weeks therefore to exchange players. A position that could encourage even more teams to attempt shots. To be validated, this proposal must receive at least 24 votes at one of the next owners' meetings (at the end of March a priori).

Coach

– The Bengals have three new assistant coaches: Jordan Salkin (offensive assistant), Ronnie Regula (defensive assistant) and Ben Jacobs (special teams assistant).
– The former quarterback journeyman Josh McCown becomes quarterbacks coach for the Vikings.

Davante Adams is a Raider

If he is not free to test the market, the name of Davante Adams (WR) has been circulating in exchange rumors for several days. A rumor that the new general manager, Tom Telesco, wanted to clarify as quickly as possible.

“Davante is a Raider,” Telesco said simply. He completed by explaining that he did not want to listen to offers for the receiver.

Among the instigators to make Antonio Pierce the team's coach, Adams still seems to be part of the team's plans.

Extension in sight in Denver

Since his selection in the 1st round of the 2021 Draft, Pat Surtain (CB) has brought joy to his team and fans. A pleasure that is not ready to stop. During a press conference, the general manager explained that if the extension of the cornerback was not the priority for the days to come, it nonetheless remains a certainty.

New contract or 5th year option lifted on his rookie contract, the Broncos have all the tools to retain Surtain for a few more years.

Where is Hendon Hooker?

Drafted last year in the 3rd round by the Lions, despite torn ligaments during his last university season, the young quarterback did not return to training until November 2023.

With Jared Goff in the last year of his contract and the retirement of Teddy Bridgewater, the future around Hendon Hooker (QB) is necessarily to be followed on the Detroit side. But we don't yet know what we have with the launcher. In any case, that's what his coach says:

“It’s hard to say. He is coming back from an injury and has had three months of training. He learned from Teddy Bridgewater and Jared Goff. We've seen him grow and it's encouraging. But that's all we can say at this point. We don't yet know what it really is. » explained Dan Campbell at a press conference.
