NFL News, Rumors, In/Out - week 15

Louisville’s Chris Bell, one of the top receiver prospects in the upcoming NFL draft, suffered a torn ACL in a game at SMU on Nov. 22, per @PeteThamel and me. In his latest mock draft, ESPN’s Field Yates projected Bell as a first-round pick.

Bell is a 6-foot-2, 220-pound wide receiver who earned All-ACC honors this year. He had 72 receptions for 917 yards prior to the injury. It’s believed to be a clean ACL tear, and Bell is set to have surgery this week with noted surgeon Dr. Dan Cooper in Dallas.
 
Rumor - so at a press conference yesterday - some commentary from Joe Burrow have multiple sites suggesting he may want to retire or leave Cincinnati. First I have seen the clip - local news as I live in Cincy area, and I get some of the supposition. Just keep in mind he never directly said he wants out, or is retiring. what was said was he wants to have fun, cause if it isn't fun, then why play. He also discussed how mentally and physically draining getting over major injuries are. Now one other thing is Burrow is really very very good at communicating to the team through the media and not calling any shot or specific target.

That said, what I saw was this.....
Joe is clearly telling the team - Fix the O-line and protect me - or if I get hurt again, I may repeat what happened with Luck or Palmer.

I will add he mentioned the fun and mental and physical struggle last year as well. So this does have legs
