Marvin Harrison Jr and Fanatics in lawsuit
He hasn't played in the NFL yet, but he's already getting the league's official store on his back. Last May, Fanatics launched legal proceedings against Marvin Harrison Jr. (WR, Cardinals) for breaching a contract between the two parties.
This Wednesday, ESPN revealed that the amount of the alleged contract is $1.05 million over a period from April 1, 2024 to March 31, 2025. In exchange, the rookie allegedly agreed to provide game jerseys and autographs. However, this Tuesday, the new Arizona nugget, through his lawyer, disputes the existence of such a contract. According to him, such an agreement was never presented to him, much less signed.
While we wait for the outcome of this affair, there is no doubt that this is very bad publicity for Fanatics which risks putting off several future stars.
Myles Garrett, number 1 pass rusher
For 11 days, ESPN will unveil its ranking of the 10 best players by position. This ranking is voted on by executives, coaches and scouts working in the NFL. This Wednesday, the newspaper unveiled the ranking of the 10 best pass rushers.
Myles Garrett (EDGE, Browns) leads the way, ahead of TJ Watt (EDGE, Steelers) and Micah Parsons (DE, Cowboys). Nick Bosa (EDGE, 49ers) and Maxx Crosby (EDGE, Raiders) are just behind.
Patrick Mahomes wins ESPY for NFL Player of the Year
A new trophy to put on the cupboard for Patrick Mahomes (QB, Chiefs)! In the race for the ESPY Award for the best player in the NFL (awarded by ESPN since 1993), he finished ahead of Lamar Jackson (QB, Ravens), Christian McCaffrey (HB, 49ers) and Myles Garrett (EDGE, Browns).
The 28-year-old quarterback did not have his best season in 2023 with “only” 4,1836 passing yards, 27 TDs and 14 INTs, but he was imperial in the Playoffs with 6 TDs for a single interception, greatly contributing to the Chiefs' new coronation. Beaten by Lamar Jackson for the title of MVP in the regular season, the Texan thus takes a little revenge. In any case, he says he is “grateful” to receive this trophy.
Leonard Fournette wants to continue his career
After a brief stint with the Bills, running back Leonard Fournette is looking for a new challenge. To do so, he's been working behind the scenes, according to ESPN, hiring his former agent Ari Nissim, and also hiring Pat Capra.
Nissim also says that Fournette is healthy and motivated. He hopes to reach an agreement with an NFL team before the start of the season, or even the start of training camps. With 2 months to go before the start of the season, time is running out for the 29-year-old. Training camps will start in a few days for most teams.
In short
