Players to be suspended by the NFL
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, several NFL players, including Isaiah Rodgers (CB, Colts), are about to receive a long suspension, which could go as far as exclusion from the season. The main reason concerns sports betting involving NFL teams. The decision and the list of players should come in the next few days.
The NFL has already started to crack down this season. This is the case of Jameson Williams (WR, Lions), suspended 6 games for this season. Some were even cut like receiver Quintez Cephus and safety CJ Moore by the same team, the Lions.
In the past, Calvin Ridley (WR, Jaguars) was suspended for 1 year for the same reasons, when he was with the Falcons.
Known NFL team training camp start dates
The NFL has revealed the start dates and training camp locations for all 32 NFL teams.
We note that teams start rookies and experienced players (designated veterans) at the same time. This is the case of the Cardinals or the Cowboys.
For others, however, rookies make their debut 1 week before experienced players. This is the case for the Giants, the 49ers, the Bills, the Falcons or even the Ravens.
The team that starts the latest is Pittsburgh. The Steelers kick off training camp on July 26 together.
Also note that there is no team that trains together, as was the case in previous years.
Transactions
– While the Patriots still seem in the race to lure DeAndre Hopkins to Massachusetts, they have just made another decision at receiver: the extension of DeVante Parker. According to Ian Rapoport, the two parties would have agreed on a three-year contract of up to 33 million dollars and including 14 million guaranteed.
The receiver, who was in his last year of contract, is therefore part of the long term with New England. Arrived from Miami before last season via a trade, Parker delivered a season in the image of his career: inconsistent. Sometimes impressive with matches over 100 yards or 2 touchdowns, sometimes much more mixed, with sometimes very discreet performances.
In New England we therefore consider that he can gain consistency and help his quarterback to progress. In any case, he is part of an attack which should be better than last year with the arrivals of JuJu Smith-Schuster and Mike Gesicki in particular. All again headed by Bill O’Brien.
In short
– The NFL Players Association (NFLPA) has announced the election of Lloyd Howell as its new executive director. He replaces DeMaurice Smith, in place since 2009.
Travis Kelce prefers winning to money
The Chiefs tight end is best friends with Patrick Mahomes. His numbers speak for him: 7 consecutive seasons at more than 1000 yards, best receiver in number of receptions (110) and yards (1338) in 2022.
In an interview with Vanity Fair, Travis Kelce admits to having thought of “putting pressure on his leaders” on his contract. On this point of view, his agents often mention the fact that he is “underpaid”. Today it is only the 3rd highest paid tight-end in the league per season with 14 million dollars, behind George Kittle (49ers – 15 million) and Darren Waller (Giants – 17 million).
Seeing Tyreek Hill pocket the jackpot last offseason, Travis Kelce seemed talkative, borderline uncomfortable when talking about his ex-teammate, today at the Dolphins.
“When I saw Tyreek (Hill) go and take 30 million a year, I was like ‘Man, that’s 2 or 3 times what I’m making’. I figured the market is fun until you go somewhere else, and you don’t win. Me, I love to win. I love the situation I’m in right now. »
Following the interview, Kelce said he could do the same as Tyreek Hill if he got what he’s worth in the market. Still, today he says he feels good being a Chiefs, and happy to come to the training center every day.
