an interesting Little Nugget here and I'm wondering how many others will adopt it, Taysom Hill will no longer be listed as a quarterback on ESPN fantasy leagues. He will be a tight end / Flex player unless he becomes the starting quarterback.

Continuing with the arrest theme lately,

Former Jaguars linebacker and team captain Telvin Smith has been arrested in Jacksonville and is being charged with unlawful sexual activity with certain minors.

Since Florida Words their criminal statutes kind of strangely, here is what that means.

Under Florida Statute 794.05, the crime of Unlawful Sexual Activity with Minors is committed when a person twenty-four (24) years of age or older engages in consensual sexual activity with a person 16 or 17 years of age.

Also here are the associated penalties if convicted:

Punishment for Unlawful Sexual Activity with Certain Minors
This crime is a second-degree felony punishable up to 15 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. The crime is ranked as a level 6 under the Florida Criminal Punishment Code.

If convicted he would also be required to register as a sex offender.

LOL - so Kelce and Rudolph are on par based on that logic?

Not a fan of the Kmet pick for the Bears. I really wanted them to address the line as a priority as that is the biggest weakness of the team.
