Derrick Henry signs extension with Titan

In the eleventh hour, the found a way to keep running back on Andy Pettitte Jersey the roster without remaining on the franchise tag. Shortly after the 4 p.m. ET franchise-tag deadline, reports emerged that Henry had agreed to a . For months, we were all told that the Titans wanted to sign Henry to a long-term extension, but there were never really any developments that made us think it would come to fruition. Paying running backs is something teams want to avoid whenever they can, but the Titans actually re-signed Henry to a pretty fair deal."The Titans treated Derrick Henry fairly given the circumstances," said CBS Sports contracts and salary cap expert Joel Corry. "He reportedly has a fully guaranteed $25.5 million over the next two years. Henry would have made $22,611,600 on two franchise tags.

If he again carried the Titans to a new level of succe s in 2020, Tenne see probably would have just franchise tagged him again and then let him go by 2022. That's just the sad reality of the running back position.

Daniel Jones got hit so hard during Gian

How do you know you got hit really hard in a game? Well, I would say a letter flying off of your helmet is a pretty good way to tell. During the to the on Sunday, quarterback Anthony Gose Jersey was hit by Packers' and the force of the contact caused the "Y" on his helmet to go flying.In the video you can see the "Y" in "NY" take flight. Josh Reddick Jersey Daniel Jones got hit so damn hard here it knocked the Y off the Giants logo. Bobby Mason (@325_Hawks) The game was played in freezing temperatures and occasional snow at MetLife Stadium and, apparently, the Giants equipment was not able to handle the winter wonderland. You would think the helmets would be able to sustain a hit, but clearly Smith hit Jones in the perfect spot to make "NY" just a sad looking Houston Astros Jersey "N."Jones did not have to continue with with a le s than perfect helmet, as he Carlos Lee Jersey got a new one with the correct logo on it to finish out the game. No word on if the "Y" was ever recovered or got lost in the snow. Jones lost his "Y," the game and his team was eliminated from playoff contention. Not the best Sunday for the rookie.The 22-year-old went 20 for 37 with 240 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions. Wide receiver had the Giants lone touchdown on the day. The Giants will face their divisional opponent next week as the Eagles look to start edging ahead of the for the top Justin Verlander Jersey spot in the NFC East.

Cowboys to revamp special teams in 2020

Let's not try to pour butter on manure and call it mashed potatoes, folks. There's nothing special about the special teams unit. As a matter of fact, to be more accurate, they're the worst you had the displeasure of watching in 2019. That's not speaking hyperbolically, either, because they were literally ranked 32nd in average yards per kick return (16.3), tied for last in number of kick returns greater than 20 yards (10), and ranked 26th in average yardage per punt return -- mustering a measly 5.7 yards per touch with their longest punt return having been just 15 yards.For contrast, the and ranked first in kick returns and punt returns last season, respectively, with the former averaging 26.6 yards per kick return and the latter logging 17.4 yards per punt return. Those are numbers the Cowboys haven't seen in a very long time.There were several reasons for such a poor output by Matt Garza Jersey special teams, and some simply couldn't be overcome by the good old fashioned "next man up" mantra. Many underestimate the value and impact of a player like safety -- arguably the best player on the unit and one of the best in the in that phase of the game -- who went to injured reserve with a torn pectoral muscle in late September. Frazier's absence as the team's top-flight gunner on returns was immediately felt, but ultimately made worse when fellow special teams ace and safety began battling a multitude of injuries.Heath battled through to remain available for the defensive unit as best he could, but his injuries were so severe the Cowboys removed him from special teams duties on the back end of the season, leaving the special teams unit without their top two players for much of the 2019 season. The result was an abysmal showing over their 16-game stretch, and rookie speedster exacerbated the i sue with ill-timed mistakes that can only be attributed to rookie jitters. After all, Pollard was a dynamo as a collegiate returner, twice named AAC Special Teams Player of the Year at Memphis. He took a ma sive step in the wrong direction under the tutelage of Keith O'Quinn, as did the unit as a whole, which led to talks of moving on from Quinn as special teams coordinator in 2019.It didn't happen then, but it has now, with O'Quinn rea signed to the scouting department under Will McClay and new head coach Mike McCarthy stealing John "Bones" Fa sel away from the to serve as his replacement. And while Fa sel won't point a finger (or eight, not counting his thumbs) at the causes for the Cowboys failures on special teams - Ryan Braun Jersey - he's ready to take the wheel and turn the ship in the right direction.Namely, away from the iceberg." to what the problems were ," he said in January. "I'm going into this with a blank slate for myself and for every person who has been on this team. I look forward to building it how I want to build it. What's happened here in the past, I can't speak of that. "I look forward to teaching the players and getting them to be prideful in what they do."With both Frazier and Heath entering unrestricted free agency, there's as much a chance they return to the Cowboys as there is they won't, and that makes things a bit more difficult for Fa sel as he tries to rebuild the unit going forward. Those two contractual question marks aside, the good news is Fa sel has been in this situation before. When he took the role as special teams coordinator for the then St. Louis Rams in 2012, there was much to improve upon, and only two years later the Rams had gone from being ranked 20th in the league in average yardage gained per Milwaukee Brewers Jersey kick return to No. 1 in that category, first in punts returned for touchdowns (2) and tied for second in average yardage gained per punt.And while Pollard is the definitive returner going forward, the player who helped that 2014 Rams team reach those heights might ring a bell for Cowboys fans. It was none other than , who delivered one of the team's two punt returns for a touchdown. The other was running back (963 kick return yards that year), the two creating a lethal return tandem for Fa sel, and that's something that can again be had in Dallas. Whether they choose to re-sign Austin or not, Fa sel has a formula that's proven to do damage, and it extends beyond simply running back kicks. He's also the most aggre sive special teams coordinator in the NFL, and you're hard-pre sed to figure out if he's actually going to punt on fourth down or run a fake. Sometimes the latter works and other times it doesn't, but the gue sing game is a che s match in and of itself.So, for Fa sel, it's about the totality of it all and not simply one or two items of concern. And, more than anything, it's about players on special teams feeling like they Milwaukee Brewers Custom Jersey 're more than just crash test dummies."A lot of the succe ses that come with special teams have to do with intangibles," Fa sel said. "The personnel is a huge part of it, and the player development is a huge part of it. But when you can get a group of running backs, linebackers, tight ends, receivers and defensive backs to become cohesive and make it seem like those guys are valuable to a team -- that's probably the biggest component to being succe sful on special teams. Building chemistry and building pride and getting them to feel like they're important when a lot of times they're backups on offense or defense, but they're a starter on special teams. "That's kind of my me sage to them: 'You're important to this football team.'"That's saying the least, and especially for the Cowboys, a club that has only one punt return for a touchdown in the last six seasons and only three in the last nine. The last player to reach the end zone on a punt return was wide receiver as a rookie in 2017, but he was traded away for a now-released defensive lineman in , after voicing concerns over his mis use by now-fired offensive coordinator Scott Linehan. Prior to Switzer, no Cowboy since reached the promised land on a punt, having done so once in 2012 and again in 2013 before being allowed to walk in free agency.The Cowboys have only six touchdowns on punt returns since 2010, and two belong to -- that very season.Even more egregious (if you can believe that's po sible) Stephen Vogt Jersey is how they've fared with kick returns. Granted, the NFL has become stingy with its rule changes in 2016 and 2018 regarding those, but the Cowboys are still so far behind the curve in this category they're nearly standing still. They only two touchdowns since as far back as the 2003 season, when wide receiver Randal Williams delivered one for them and running back landed another 2008, marking an 11-year drought in the category and leaving the Cowboys with a touchdown-to-kick return ratio of only 0.12 -- a number far, far below league average. There's nowhere to go but up for the special teams unit in Dallas, and although Fa sel could simply deploy his proven blueprint in Dallas and be instantly succe sful, he's looking to improve upon it and make it that much more difficult to stop.

Cowboys open to drafting quarterback in

recently saw his franchise tag balloon to roughly $31 million, but it's mostly of no consequence to him, because he has yet to sign it and would prefer to avoid Glenn Robinson Jersey having to altogether. As talks remain ongoing between the two-time Pro Bowl quarterback and the , prior to the deadline of July 15 -- sources continue to affirm to CBS Sports -- but inking Prescott to a longterm deal doesn't mean the team is all set at the position. The role of backup QB doesn't exactly look promising at the moment, and that's why they might look to addre s it in the 2020 .The team re-signed on a one-year deal worth $2.133 million this offseason, but the former undrafted free agent hasn't shown much of anything when given the chance. His rookie preseason was quite impre sive, but he's since struggled to distance himself from , who was finally released in 2019 after two preseasons of pushing Rush to the limit in what can only be characterized as a race between a tortoise and a snail. With White gone and Rush clearly not the definitive answer behind Prescott, the Cowboys had a virtual pre-draft interview with Oklahoma quarterback Jalen Hurts, and with Florida International University signal-caller James Morgan, per Milwaukee Brewers Hats Jane Slater of NFL Network.So if the Cowboys decide to spend a mid-rounder or later on a quarterback, team exec Stephen Jones says it's all about QB2." , as to Dak's contract, is to what it's always been," Jones noted on Tuesday of draft week. "We like to develop a young quarterback. It's always great. We would like to have one to the develop to the level you could trade and build a sets that way." Up to now, the Cowboys haven't done a good job at achieving that goal. They struggled mightily to locate a solid backup on the back end of Tony Romo's career, as evidenced in 2015, when three separate quarterbacks mustered a combined record of just 1-11 in Romo's absence due to injury. The team finished 4-12 that year, and three Milwaukee Brewers Hoodie of the wins belonged to Romo. To resolve that i sue, they spent a fourth-round compensatory pick on Prescott in 2016, and the rest is history. Prescott went on to supplant Romo and win Rookie of the Year honors, and he hasn't mi sed a single start since en route to currently negotiating a deal that will make him the highest-paid player in franchise history (if not the NFL as a whole).That said, seeing as Prescott has now logged 67 out of a po sible 67 starts -- including the playoffs -- is there truly a reason to spend a pick on what happens behind him? Considering this is still the NFL and injuries are forever an occupational hazard, the answer is a resounding yes.Additionally, head coach Mike McCarthy has already prompted the Cowboys to take on a "philosophical change" from a free agency standpoint, and that will carry into his first draft with the team. McCarthy, who engineered the ' succe s first with Brett Favre and then with , never shied away from drafting quarterbacks despite having had his ace(s) in the hole. "Mike can speak to it," Jones said. "He wants a Milwaukee Brewers Custom Jersey certain number of quarterbacks in the building ideally to be working with. Mike brings a really good background in developing quarterbacks."McCarthy has repeatedly joined the Joneses in being all-in on Prescott and views him as being a championship-caliber quarterback, while also when it comes to contract talks and to "let the busine s people work out the busine s matter", cementing the thought that any QB taken in this year's draft would have nothing to do with Prescott.This is the same coach who selected a quarterback in four different NFL drafts with Favre and/or Rodgers at the helm, which goes to Jones' point on what McCarthy likes to see happening in his QB room, even if his starter Travis Shaw Jersey is already christened. As it stands, it's a room that contains a definitive starter in Prescott but a highly questionable backup in Rush, along with -- a second-year talent who was a fifth-round pick of the in 2019 that signed on last season but was never activated from the practice squad.Needle s to say, there's nothing about the backup QB situation in Dallas that makes McCarthy feel all warm and fuzzy. As such, he might ask the Cowboys to throw another log on the fire this weekend.

Chuck Clark open to extension with Raven

safety came out of relative anonymity to become a force with the 's best team this season, which could result in a new payday in 2020. Sources said Clark is open to a long-term deal with the Ravens Ron Santo Jersey after the season, and he is one of a small handful of top young players on the roster in line for a new contract.Baltimore's pa sing defense was one of the NFL's worst through the first month of the season, and Clark's ascent into the starting lineup (after veteran was lost to a season-ending injury) was a major turning point in what became of the league's best units in the second half of the season. After struggling to get players aligned correctly and adhere to the defensive play calls, altering the defensive headset duties between linebackers and defensive backs, Clark took over the communication of the defense in October and the team soared.Clark is one of the most beloved players Kyle Hendricks Jersey in the locker room, was already a special teams ace, and became a top contributor once taking over. His instincts for the ball carrier, tackling acumen and tendency to make a big play, coupled with his headine s, has him among the best safeties in the NFL this season. Clark, a sixth-round pick in 2017, made $645,000 this season and is set to make just $735,000 in the final year of his deal, but with Baltimore prioritizing its secondary, that could change in the coming months.Clark's numbers this season compared very strongly to the top strong safeties in Jon Lester Jersey the NFL, including the , formerly the highest-paid at the position, and Chicago's , who recently signed a four-year, $58M extension. While Clark ended up playing about 300 fewer snaps than Jackson or Jenkins, due to his later arrival to the starting defense, he still had 73 tackles and two forced fumbles (Jacksons had 60/1 and Jenkins had 81/4), while Clark also defended nine pa ses with one interception (Jenkins had 5/2 Greg Maddux Jersey and Jenkins had 8/0). Clark also contributed one sack and three quarterback hits, which also compared favorably to the top paid strong safeties, with Jackson registering one sack and Jenkins notching 2.5 sacks and nine QB hits. Jefferson, who signed a four-year, $34M deal with the Ravens to leave Arizona in 2017, is set to make $7M next season, has no guaranteed money left on his deal and Addison Russell Jersey was already a candidate for a potential change in 2020 even before Clark emerged. Those funds could be earmarked for Clark is the sides are able to come to terms on a new deal.
