[Phicinfan]

CLE - David Njoku is believed to have a high ankle sprain
LAR - no updates on knee of Puka Nakua, he didn't play 2nd half
LAR - lost major OL players as well including OLT(who was #2 already) and OG
DAL - Extended Dak 4 years $240 million, $80 million signing bonus - $231 million guaranteed
DAL - lost TE Jake Ferguson in the game to a knee injury - but early reports seem to be nothing major and ACL is in tact
DET - this just in, Lions have 2 Wrs and Jameson Williams put on a show...to the detriment of Aman-Ra St. Brown though... OH and RBs can win games, Talk to NE about that as well
ATL - seeing Kurt Cousins working out of the shot gun most the game is like watching a cat act like a fish. It just doesn't work. No play action ATL?!?!?
HOU - Yes Virginia there IS a Joe Mixon and just WOW!!
CLE - first God help any Offensive person there, as the OL got decimated(no starting OTs played) and then lost some G's as well. Oh, and Deshaun Watson was AWFUL!
NYG - I will have to start the coaching hot seat thread early this year, I don't think Daboll survives this year, not with how bad the Giants looked...
TB - proves once again, that WRs with talent can make anyone throwing the ball look great - Baker Mayfield is relevant again - also see Minnesota
PIT - some here will dog him, but Justin Fields did exactly what Steelers wanted, control the game, and let the defense and running game carry the team. I am curious if they go back to Russell or not now....
LAC - J.K. Dobbins is really healthy folks - I mean REALLY healthy. I hope to God he stays that way and really gets to show what he can be.
BUF - Josh Allen hurt his left hand during the game, he says he is fine but will get X-rays
MIA - as most know - Tyreek Hill was detained yesterday pre-game, for traffic violation. Since then One of the officers is on administrative duties now....
MIN - Jordan Addison has another ankle injury, per some reports this is not re-hurting the ankle sprain he had over the summer
CAR - how bad are the Panthers? They made Derek Carr look like he is an all pro, and the Saints look like Superbowl Champions.
ARI - Hey Kyler Murray, and HC and OC - you DO realize you used your #1 pick on an incredible WR yes?
GB - as previously reported - PFT and a few other sites now have Joran Love out 4-6 weeks. Per reports next starter will be Malik Willis - although I have seen ONE report that the team has reached out to Ryan Tannehill

Puka Nakua "week to week" after aggravating his knee injury

Mcvay said PCL sprain...and is a candidate for short term IR (most likely option).

It's the same injury from Camp, but it got worse now.

Update. Nacua to IR. OUT NEXT 4 GAMES

Probably too much to expect 22 targets a game for Kupp moving forward?

Dak Prescott deal info from PFT:
We’ve obtained the full and complete details of the four-year, $240 million extension.

The term come from a source with direct knowledge of the deal:

1. Signing bonus: $80 million.

2. 2024 base salary: $1.25 million, fully guaranteed.

3. 2025 base salary: $47.75 million, fully guaranteed.

4. 2026 base salary: $40 million, guaranteed for injury at signing and fully guaranteed on fifth day of 2025 league year.

5. 2027 base salary: $45 million, guaranteed for injury at signing and fully guaranteed on fifth day of 2026 league year.

6. 2028 base salary: $55 million, $17 million of which is guaranteed for injury at signing and fully guaranteed on fifth day of 2027 league year.

The deal includes a no-trade clause, a no-franchise tag clause, and a no-transition tag clause. It also has four void years, from 2029 through 2032.

The contract, which had one year left at $29 million, has $129 million fully guaranteed at signing. Another $40 million is fully guaranteed by March 2025. And another $45 million becomes fully guaranteed by March 2026.

The Cowboys could, in theory, cut the cord after two years, but they would owe him $40 million in 2026, less offset, after paying him $129 million for two seasons. And if Dak took a deal elsewhere for the league minimum in 2026, the Cowboys will end up paying him nearly $169 million for two years — and nearly $140 million for only one year beyond his current deal.

It’s more likely that the Cowboys will keep Dak at least through 2027, with a decision to be made in 2028, when his salary is $55 million with a full guarantee of $17 million.

The new-money average make Dak the first $60 million per year player in new-money average. He also received the largest signing bonus in league history, and the most guarantees ever, on a four- or five-year extension.

And the contract puts Dak in line for another extension in four years, at the latest. He’ll be due to hit the open market in March 2029, at the age of 36.
