Jim Irsay: ‘Anthony Richardson has to play to improve’
The Colts have decided to select Anthony Richardson (QB) with the fourth pick of the last draft, while knowing that there remains a prospect who still has a lot to learn. In security, they also hired Gardner Minshew which allows time to consider the development of the rookie. However Jim Irsay (owner) seems to consider that the best way to advance his new quarterback is to launch him into action quickly.
“For Anthony, we know it’s going to be tough. But he has to play to improve. It’s not even a question,” Irsay told The Pat McAffee Show. “Gardner could play better at the start of the season, since he’s a veteran. But we have to put Anthony on the pitch. It’s Shane [Steichen, HC] who will make the decision. »
Dalvin Cook: why not the Jets?
His agent Zac Hiller says so. Even if the connection between Miami and Dalvin Cook (RB, ex-Vikings) is strong, the New York project is attractive to the veteran runner. So far Cook has turned down an offer from the Dolphins, and despite the fact that he “is still interested” the alternative of leaving for Gotham is not to be overlooked. The ambitions of the Jets are great and displayed, which has something to seduce.
“The prospect of playing with [Aaron Rodgers] during her career is attractive. 100 percent… Sounds like a great situation to me. The Jets are building something great,” Hiller told Heavy.
Panthers: Julius Peppers and Muhsin Muhammad will join the Ring of Honor
This Monday the Panthers announced their desire to integrate two illustrious veterans into their Ring of Honor. Thus, Julius Peppers (OF) and Muhsin Muhammad (WR) will be inducted on October 29 during the game against the Texans. They will become the eighth and ninth members of Carolina’s pantheon.

Muhammad played a total of 11 years with the franchise. He is the second best receiver in club history behind Steve Smith, and was selected to an All-Pro and two Pro Bowls.

NFL: The Rooney Rule is not in question
While the Supreme Court has ruled on affirmative action in American universities, DeMaurice Smith (executive director of the NFLPA) thinks that the NFL should look into the Rooney Rule because its record is concretely bad. But despite the position of the highest legal authority in the country, the NFL reaffirmed in a memo that “its investment in the fundamental principles of diversity, equity and inclusion is not modified”.
“We will not stop our policy or program which has been put in place to create a high level of play, to ensure that diverse voices are heard and respected, and for the recruitment, promotion and development of leaders. who represent the full spectrum of America,” the statement explained. “We will continue to work with you [les employés de la NFL], the 32 clubs, and our colleagues outside the league to make the NFL a leading organization, an inclusive, respectful and supportive professional environment for all. »
JJ Watt: “I didn’t want to take money from my brother’s contract”
Could a reunion of the three Watt brothers have taken place? This is what JJ Watt (ex-DE) seemed to reveal during the podcast ‘Green Light with Chris Long’. In 2021, released by the Texans, he could have signed with the Steelers.
“It is,” Watt explained. “It would surely have been great to play with my brothers. But TJ was also in negotiations at the time, and the last thing I wanted was to walk in and take money from his contract. »
Cam Jordan grumbles about ESPN rankings
Eight-time Pro Bowl nominee Cam Jordan (OF, Saints) has recorded at least 10 sacks over the last eleven seasons. So when ESPN does a ranking of the best edge rushers and he’s not on the list, he takes it as “a slap in the face.” For him, considering only pass rush specialists makes us forget the qualities of real defensive ends.
“I wonder if they have a complete ranking of true defensive ENDS. Why do edge rushers take the place of real ends, why encompass with the term edge? How many knows what Stop the race means? Me, B Graham, Nick [Bosa]Arik Armstead, D-Law we can play all four attempts, not just the pass,” Jordan tweeted.
Corey Dillon: ‘I want the Bengals to treat their ex-players right’
As the Bengals prepare to announce the induction of two former players into their Ring of Honor, Corey Dillon (ex-RB) expressed his dissatisfaction with the franchise for not receiving enough consideration. Best runner in the history of the club, he considers that the management should have imposed his candidacy rather than leaving the decision to a vote of the fans among 12 other glorious former.
“I want the fans to know that when I talk I’m not talking about them or the city of Cincinnati,” Dillon said on the Bengal Jim and Friends show. “I’m just noticing things that I would like to fix. It’s just business, it’s not personal. I really have no animosity towards Mike Brown or the Bengals, none of that. What I mean is that I want them to treat their former players properly. That’s my goal, and there are a lot of things that I think need to be sorted out. I hope in the future, maybe Mike Brown and I can have this conversation. Otherwise, for me, it’s a front office business. It has nothing to do with the players, the current state of the Bengals, or my teammates. Basically, it’s something that needs to be ironed out and settled between the front office and me. And I hope it will happen sooner rather than later. I look forward to this conversation with the front office guys. The people in charge, whether it’s Mike Brown or whoever runs the store. »
