Just curiosity of ethnicity as she does look a mix.

And I'm sure her smokin hot or not body affects how she does her job

Looks slim and toned....and she's not bad either....

I can't tell if she actually stunning or it's just because of who she's standing next to...

The Athletic's Nate Taylor considers Ronald Jones a "legit candidate" to earn the Chiefs' starting job over Clyde Edwards-Helaire.​

That's if RoJo "has an exceptional camp." You are forgiven if you are tired of reading Jones hype every pad-less practice season, but Chiefs coach Andy Reid said in March Jones could be a "major part" of the offense. It has as much to do with CEH as RoJo, as the 2020 first-rounder has yet to prove himself on either early downs or in the passing game. Jones will not be a candidate for the third-down role, though Jerick McKinnon will be in that mix. If Jones could make even slightly fewer mistakes than he did in Tampa, he could end up the mail carrier for one of the league's most explosive offenses.

The Athletic's Nate Taylor reports Marquez Valdes-Scantling was the "best receiver" during the Chiefs' offseason program.​

Taylor also hyped up MVS' "strong connection" with Patrick Mahomes in June. Translation, this is just one reporter's opinion, but Valdes-Scantling did appear to finally be adding different levels to his deep game in Green Bay last season. It is the deep game, of course, where he will be most keenly needed in Kansas City following Tyreek Hill's departure, but fantasy managers should never say never to Valdes-Scantling perhaps flirting with WR3 relevance in this targets-needy offense. WR4 is much more likely.

The Athletic's Nate Taylor reports second-round rookie Skyy Moore missed "most" of the Chiefs' offseason program with a left hamstring injury.​

As such, Taylor expects Moore to receive "plenty of repetitions in camp" with Patrick Mahomes in an effort to build up chemistry, though that would obviously be the case either way. Moore's hamstring is not a huge concern as long as it does not linger into camp, but it is also a poor sign when rookies are felled early by soft-tissue issues. They can linger longer with players who are not used to the rigors of NFL training. As far as we know, Moore will be ready to go when camp kicks off later this month.

Matthew Stafford said he has a better understanding of the Rams offense than he did in 2021.​

It's a frightening thought for the rest of the NFL after Stafford, 34, led LA to a Super Bowl title in his first year with the Rams. "At this point in the year last season, I think to myself what I knew about this team and this offense, and it's just so small in comparison to what I know and understand now," Stafford said. "So that gives me great comfort in the fact that we can go above and beyond what we did last year." Stafford, who has taken mental reps during offseason practices to rest his arm, said the Rams are "trying out new stuff as well, we're trying out new tempos, new plays, all that kind of stuff. There's plenty to be gained, it's just less fun for me whenI don't get to do the one thing that I liked doing, which is throwing the ball." Stafford in 2021 posted the highest touchdown rate of his career (6.8 percent) and the second highest adjusted yards per attempt (8.2) in a potent LA offense. He should once again have a high touchdown ceiling in a Rams system that passes it as often as any team in the red zone.

The Charlotte Observer considers third-round rookie Matt Corral unlikely to "see a regular season snap this season."​

Reporter Scott Fowler is just pointing out the obvious, but things might spice up if the Panthers somehow offload Sam Darnold. That would require either eating Darnold's mammoth $18.8 million via release or getting him to agree to a pay cut or restructure to facilitate a trade. It is unclear in what universe Darnold would consider the latter option. If Darnold is cut, Corral could come into some dual-threat streamer upside were Baker Mayfield to miss time with injury. Despite Mayfield's poor 2021 play, we would consider it extremely unlikely he gets a performance-based benching in Corral's favor.

I call bullshit. He actually won something.

NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reports “there’s a little optimism” the Cowboys will sign TE Dalton Schultz to a long-term contract before the franchise tag deadline.​

Schultz has been in talks with Dallas since March but the sides haven't been close on a deal. The Browns' David Njoku contract ($13.7M APR) raised the bar for a Schultz extension and has been a sticking point, with the Cowboys viewing the Njoku deal as an outlier. That makes it possible Schultz will play under the $10.9 million tag in 2022. Dallas has until July 15 to work something out.

The Dolphins have yet to open talks with TE Mike Gesicki on a long-term contract, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.​

Most signs have pointed to Gesicki, who already signed his franchise tender, playing under the tag. The 26-year-old is coming off career highs in catches (73) and yards (780) last year while running the fourth most pass routes among tight ends. Gesicki seems likely to play 2022 on the tag before becoming a free agent or getting tagged again next offseason.

The Bengals are not expected to extend franchise-tagged FS Jessie Bates before next week's deadline.​

There "isn't a lot of optimism," per NFL Network's Mike Garafolo, that the Bengals will bridge the gap between the tag and the top of the safety market for Bates. A new deal would exceed $18 million per year for Bates while he would make $12.9 million under the tag. Bates skipped OTAs and has previously said he wouldn't play on the tag. The Bengals can't sign Bates after July 15, but the fifth-year safety could limit his exposure and extend his holdout into training camp.

The Athletic's Daniel Kaplan reports the Jaguars have filed a motion to dismiss former kicker Josh Lambo's lawsuit.​

Lambo filed a lawsuit against the Jaguars in May alleging "a pattern of retaliatory harassment and a hostile work environment" under former head coach Urban Meyer. Back in December, Lambo accused Meyer of kicking him last preseason and is seeking his entire $3.5 million salary in the lawsuit. In filing their motion to dismiss, the Jaguars allege Lambo "did not reply to a follow up after his agent reported Meyer's kick" and said, "plaintiff's case is predicated solely on the alleged criminal acts of Urban Meyer, not any policy, practice or activity of club." Lambo remains a free agent at this time and has not kicked since Week 3 of last season -- when he went 0-for-3 on field goals and 5-for-7 on extra points. Prior to 2021, Lambo had converted on 88.9% of his field goal attempts and 16-of-21 on distances of 50+ yards.

Free agent OT Duane Brown was arrested at Los Angeles International airport Saturday for possession of a concealed firearm.​

Brown hasn't seen much interest in free agency so far, with the Seahawks and Panthers both talking about bringing him in. It's possible that Brown, turning 37 in August, just wants to avoid a grueling training camp at this point and has standing offers. This arrest probably won't deter a team from signing him if they really want him, but there's no guarantee that he'll be on a 53-man roster for Week 1 at this point. Brown finished last season with a 71.5 PFF grade, his lowest since his rookie season.

It takes a special kind of stupid to have a gun on you in an airport.

It takes a special kind of stupid to have a gun on you in an airport.

In some places I imagine it’s so common place to have a gun on you that you could almost give someone a pass for it, but I don’t imagine California is one of those places

I understand America's fetish with guns. but to forget you have one on you when you are in a place like an airport is something else.

When guns have more rights than most of the people its more than just an issue. but thats America in a nutshell.

I would imagine other countries if you have a gun on you at an international airport, a good lawyer could make a potential terrorist case.

But if you feel the need to have a gun on you to feel safe, that says alot about your insecurities or the people you hang around.

 

[aussiedude]

like you know the panic you have when you leave the house and think you forgot your phone. like do Americans have that panic but about their guns.

I think the nbcsportsedge blurb is insinuating Brown did it on purpose to avoid training camp. Instead, relying on being signed mid-season when a team needs a Tackle.
