Before Colin Kaepernick and Richard Sherman made headlines, Levy had become one of the league most vocal players, an activist who speaks out for human rights and against domestic violence, and he has even taken on the NFL itself through social media and a weekly column in the Detroit Free Press. “He doesn fit the mold,” says Levy friend and former University of teammate Brad Thorson. “I think that jarring for guys who expect him to be buying Bentleys.” Hernandez had been questioned after getting into a physical fight Florida teammate Tim Tebow told police he witnessed and helped resolve a bouncer at a bar, reportedly rupturing the man’s eardrum. Right after he was drafted, the Boston Globe reported that his suspiciously low draft position (the Patriots took him 113th...

Article 4.3 requires prior approval by the affirmative vote of three fourths of the member clubs before a club may transfer its franchise or playing site to a different city either within or outside its existing home territory. Article 4.3 confirms that each club’s primary obligation to the League and to all other member clubs is to advance the interests of the League in its home territory. Based statistics so far, you would be very impressed with the team. They are averaging a league leading 31.2 points a game and have only permitted 7.2 points a game. They won the 5 games by 26,27,2, 31 and 33 points for a total of 120 points, the second largest in the league. They are second to the St. Louis Rams who have 123 points. “It’s better than nothing at all. It’s a step. Two different worlds...

Though I admire their intentions, I hope that going forward, these men choose a different forum for their actions, ideally one that is totally out of the public eye and garners no national media coverage whatsoever. A sporting event is, frankly, not the time or place for anyone least of all a bunch of millionaire professional athletes to be making political statements, especially if those statements cause people to engage in introspection or mindful discussion. Cam Newton had his right shoulder repaired with offseason surgery and the Panthers used their first round pick on Christian McCaffrey, a running back Carolina believes can be a multidimensional weapon in the offense. Which Newton will the Panthers get this season? The MVP who accounted for 45 touchdowns in 2015 or the player who struggled at times last season when he threw 19 touchdown passes with 14 interceptions,...

An NFL competition committee proposal to “make it illegal for an offensive player with an eligible number to report as ineligible and line up outside the core of the formation” got the necessary 75 percent approval from team owners during the final day of the league meetings at the Arizona Biltmore resort. Controversy over the anthem is a barrier to having honest conversations and making real progress on the underlying issues, Goodell wrote. need to move past this controversy, and we want to do that together with our players. said he wasn sure if players would be included in discussions during the league meetings. Most teams practice on one or both of those days. Houston and Detroit are the only teams with byes next week. The NFL Players Association didn immediately respond to a request for comment. Harrison, who lives in a suburb north...

Aaron Rodgers, GB, vs. Detroit: After being held to an unfathomable 77 passing yards in a Week 8 loss to Denver, Rodgers threw for just 38 yards through the first 29:19 of a Week 9 loss to Carolina. But just as things looked their bleakest, Rodgers completed a 40 yard pass to Davante Adams as the first half ended, then caught fire with 252 yards and three touchdowns as Green Bay attempted to mount a second half comeback. The Packers came up short, but Rodgers quieted fantasy skeptics with his usual other worldly play. Now, a run of four straight NFC North matchups starts and ends with the Detroit Lions, who have the highest opponents’ completion percentage (73.1) and second highest opponents’ passer rating (111.1) in the NFL. He’s officially “back,” not that he ever went away. “It’s a good class of tackles and...

Les and Tony have done a great job keeping me out of those discussions when it comes to the money and specifics of it, McVay said. and I discussions have been exclusive to player/coach relationship types of things. What he missed out on how much we can wait to get him back here. Penn State also has a replenished senior class of 10 to 12 starters, several of whom could turn themselves into prospects (as defensive end Carl Nassib did two years ago). Receiver Saeed Blacknall might make the biggest move with a breakthrough season. Fellow receiver DaeSean Hamilton, who led the Big Ten with 82 catches in 2014, looks to recapture that magic as well. The game began, and the play itself was very intense, maybe the most intense I ever been in. It felt like we were back at Troy [High School]and...

Is this joker serious that this is some kind of a scam? You know what’s a scam? Hollywood continuing to take our money while they crap all over Americans who give their hard earned money to watch these people entertain us, and then turn around the very next day and call us all deplorables, idiots, and they make fun of us all the time.” Buffalo Bills at New England: Call this one a hunch. The Patriots have masked their deficiencies masterfully through three weeks, an amazing feat considering the need to start both Jimmy Garoppolo and Jacoby Brissett in the absence of Tom Brady (suspension). Meanwhile, the...
