Dallas is close to signing OL La'el Collins to an extension - but is on again off again with Zeke, and no news on Dak or Amari
Texans place TEs Jordan Thomas and Kahale Warring on IR - not a good start for this team
Chargers have said they have halted all contract talks with Melvin Gordon - so he has to play on his tag or hold out or work a trade out.
Seattle - D.K. Metcalf is back at practice after having knee surgery a few weeks ago
IND - has extended Qb Jacoby Brissett to a two year $30 million deal - good deal for both

Jerry Jones at it again - last weekend we heard a deal with Zeke was close, then it hadn't moved, now we are getting positive stories again, then we get this - per Jerry, with new contracts for DeMarcus Lawrence, Jaylon Smith and now La'el Collins - there is only limited monies left and evidently that was directed at Dak, Amari and Zeke. Wouldn't that make Dallas fun if one of the three gave in a bit to get a deal and possibly push another one out.

Buffalo is hosting Laquon Treadwell WR FA
Wr Terrelle Pryor was put on IR rather than be released from Jacksonville, he has not reached an injury settlement and is a FA, had only a minor hamstring issue per reports

I am scared at how much Qbs are getting, regardless of if they are elite or not. I like Goff, and Wentz, and Cousins for that matter, but they should not be leading in salary as they are not Brees, Rodgers type Qbs.

ATL - restructured contracts of OT Jake Matthews and S Ricardo Allen to get more cap space - supposedly very close to Julio deal
IND - released Qb Phillip Walker from practice squad - with the signing of Hoyer to be #2, Chad Kelly becomes the developmental Qb
SF - Pettis and Goodwin are listed as starting Wrs for 49ers
HOU - Fuller is supposedly ready to go week 1 - so starting Wrs are Hopkins, Fuller and Coutee with Stills listed as lead back up
ARI - Christian Kirk will return punts this year
LAC - looking for a first round pick and an additional pick for Gordon trade - lets see if they get it....
IND - fun fact - Brissett negotiated the contract with Indy himself, not using an agent - he did that for his rookie deal as well
OAK - released Doug Martin from team from IR
DET - still looking at Qbs have worked out Heinicke and Tyree Jackson
GB - place Te Sternberger on IR with high ankle sprain
GB - Jimmy Graham back at practice

Rams - signed Te Tyler Higbee to a 4 year extension
Bucs - Wr Mike Evans restructured his contract to give Tampa some cap space
Eagles/Chargers - so a report came out that Eagles were talking trade with Chargers - Eagles send Howard and flip mid round picks next year and Chargers send Gordon and cover part of his salary - Chargers rejected it. but does that mean Sanders is going to be all that? Nope.
Jets - Bell has told HC he wants as many carries as possible
Miami - Drake looks to be lead Rb for now
Colts - Supposedly Jim Irsay turned down $3.2 billion to sell the Colts - YIKES
Vikings - Diggs has hammy issue

AB got into it with Mayock yesterday, after he posted his fine letter on IG. Schefter and others reporting a suspension is likely now. Someone needs to get AB back on his meds. Yikes

Apparently their intention is to find a way to void the guaranteed money in his contract so they can release him.

Apparently he told Mike Mayock the general manager that he was going to punch him in the face
