Browns Kevin Stefanski will return to co

The didn't have their head coach for Brad Kaaya Jersey their first playoff victory since 1994 on Sunday night, with Kevin Stefanski spending the day at home while recovering from COVID-19. By advancing to the Divisional Round with Sunday's 48-37 upset of the rival , however, the team has bought itself some reinforcements: Stefanski will return to the sidelines next Sunday to coach the Browns' matchup with the reigning champion David Njoku Jersey .That's , who reported earlier Sunday that the first-year head coach "feels great" and watched the Browns' big Willie Herenton Jersey win from his basement. Stefanski was barred from communicating with players or staff during Cleveland's matchup with Pittsburgh, leaving special teams coordinator Mike Priefer to serve as Ray Lewis Jersey acting head coach. But he'll be back in the saddle, presumably with play-calling duties -- which were handled by offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt against Pittsburgh -- in Kansas City.

Inside the Mind of an Undersized Pass Ru

PHILADELPHIA - In the short term, Kyron Johnsons path to the Eagles 53-man roster runs through Michael Clays special teams units.The 6-foot, 235-pound sixth-round pick, however, is also the closest thing the Eagles have to star pa s rusher Haason Reddick from a traits standpoint, meaning the backup SAM linebacker position could be in play for Johnson if he can supplement his speed with technique.Johnson ran two eye-popping sub-4.4 40-yard dashes at Kansas pro day this spring.While their paths are hardly the same Reddick was the No. Enos Slaughter Jersey 13 overall pick in 2017 the two players have some unique things in common. When Reddick, a South Jersey native, and former Temple star, arrived in the NFL with Arizona, the Cardinals tabbed him as an off-ball linebacker with the belief he was a little too small to hold up on the edge but plenty athletic enough to be a difference-maker at the second level. Only after some dubious moments did the Cards unleash Reddick and told him to go after the quarterback in 2020, something that resulted in 12.5 Steve Carlton Jersey sacks. Reddick then reunited with former Temple coach Matt Rhule in Carolina last season and again reached double-digit sacks with the Panthers something that earned him a monster $15 million AAV deal with his hometown team.Johnson went through a similar thing at the college level with the Jayhawks using him as an off-ball linebacker because of his speed and frame before finally realizing, undersized or not, it was time to turn Johnson loose on the edge.The Texas native responded with 6.5 sacks, something that, coupled with his raw speed, made him a draftable commodity.Scroll to ContinueI mean it's like the same as it was in college, Johnson said when asked about overcoming bigger players on the offensive line when rushing the pa ser. You just move it around and getting adjusted to all these dudes is probably bigger than you but the one advantage I have is speed.The coaches and the players tell me that all the time. Kyron, your speed is deadly, you can kill them with that and it's just me working on the fundamentals the basics. Vince Coleman Jersey The first step or get-off is the key, according to Johnson.BG Brandon Grahm and DB Derek Barnett have really been the ones that's been telling me you can work this, you can work that, but they always tell me to the front, to the start, work you get- Stan Musial Jersey off. That's the main thing that helps you get off on every (offensive) tackle."Something Johnson is also relishing is how the NFL treats its players. "Le s off our legs," Johnson said when asked about practice in Philly vs. his days at KU. "Let me say that because in college it is a whole different ballgame from the elite because they do try to save your legs in the NFL to get you ready for like game days and making sure you're productive the next day. "It's just the intensity as well, because the intensity is 10 times faster. You just got to really be on a signment, your keys, your alignment, just be locked in. You got to have the fundamentals to compete."

Green Bay Packers Roster Projection 2.0

GREEN BAY, Wis. A suming everybody is healthy, the Green Bay Packers have one of the best collections of front-line players in the NFL.Health, however, is a major question mark as the Packers set their sights on Fridays preseason opener at the San Francisco 49ers.Can the Packers po sibly survive the first month of the season if neither David Bakhtiari nor Elgton Jenkins are in the starting lineup? The Packers are fortunate to have Yosh Nijman poised to start at one of the offensive tackle positions, but will general manager Brian Gutekunst have to find a veteran for the other spot?Thats not the only position where Gutekunst might be shopping over the next few weeks. The depth charts are thin at outside linebacker behind starters Rashan Gary and Preston Smith, at cornerback behind Jaire Alexander, Eric Stokes and Rasul Douglas, and at safety behind Adrian Amos and Darnell Savage. He might need to find a long snapper, too. None of the young players have really emerged at those four positions. Scroll to ContinueSo, Jason Terry Jersey even with perhaps the best defense since the Super Bowl season of 2010, the fate of the Packers will be placed on the shoulders of quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who might have to navigate around a makeshift offensive line and an unproven group of receivers.We like to throw a lot on his shoulders because hes a really good player and hes certainly done that, Gutekunst said last week. What this teams going to be as we move forward, we have a lot of work to do. On paper, I think theres a reason to be excited and I like the way the guys are working. But we have a long way to get to that first game. Were going to need some luck to kind of stay healthy and get to where we need to be. But I do think and Ive talked about this before you want to try to have a team that can win in multiple ways whether its offense, defense, special teams. I think this team has the potential to do that. So, well see where it goes but I like the way theyre pushing right now. , here is our second shot at predicting the 53-man roster that emerges from training camp. Remember, rosters will be cut on three consecutive Tuesdays: to 85 on Aug. 16, to 80 on Aug. 23 and to 53 on Aug. 30. Quarterbacks (2)On the 53: Aaron Rodgers, Jordan Love.Changes: None.Toughest cut: None.Injury concern: None.Analysis: Only an injury is going to upset this apple cart. Rodgers, the four-time MVP, is going to have his work cut out for him unle s the offensive line gets healthy and solidified in time for Week 1. Loves up-and-down Family Night was sort of like his up-and-down training camp, though hes also playing behind a young offensive line and a mish-mash of receivers. Danny Etlings lack of a big-time arm was evident on Family Night; his pa s to the sideline to Ishmael Hyman took forever to reach its destination and was almost snared by Donte Vaughn. Running Backs (3) On the 53: Aaron Jones, AJ Dillon, Patrick Taylor.Changes: None.Toughest cut: None.Injury concern: Kylin Hill (ACL) remains on the physically unable to perform list. That opens the door to him OJ Mayo Jersey starting the regular season on PUP, though hes looked explosive in his rehab workouts.Analysis: In the race to be the No. 3 back behind the elite combo of Jones and Dillon, Taylor entered training camp with a huge lead over undrafted rookies B.J. Baylor and Tyler Goodson. With Taylor sidelined by a groin injury, the rookies have a chance to close the gap. Goodson had a strong practice on Thursday but neither distinguished himself on Family Night. Receivers (6) On the 53: Allen Lazard, Sammy Watkins, Randall Cobb, Amari Rodgers, Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson.Changes: Samori Toure (out).Toughest cuts: Toure, a seventh-round pick, has had a quiet training camp but scored two touchdowns on Family Night. He made a great adjustment on an underthrown pa s on the first and ran past the defensive backs on the second. Juwann Winfree had a strong offseason and opened training camp running with the No. 1 offense. He seems John Henson Jersey to have been pushed aside by the coaches, though, with Lazard, Watkins, Cobb and Doubs getting the first-team focus. Injury concern: Watson (knee).Analysis: The gue s on Watson is based purely on the calendar. Theres more than one month until the regular season begins. Even if hes not 100 percent ready for Week 1 at the Vikings, keeping him on the active roster would allow him to take his training camp into the early weeks of the regular season. But who knows? While his injured teammates have been going through on-the-field workouts during practice, any work Watson has done has been kept being closed doors. Tight Ends (4) On the 53: Marcedes Lewis, Tyler Davis, Josiah Deguara, Dominque Dafney.Changes: Sal Cannella (out), Dafney (in).Toughest cut: None.Injury concern: Robert Tonyan (ACL) remains on PUP.Analysis: Tonyan was injured on Oct. 28. If hes not ready for Week 1 at the Vikings on Sept. 11, its going to be close. Given his importance (and upcoming free agency), a conservative approach makes sense from both perspectives. Lewis continues to block his butt off and Deguara has had a really good camp. If Tonyan can return to form, this would be a high-quality group with a receiver (Tonyan), blocker (Lewis) and fullback-type (Deguara). Offensive line (9) On the 53: LT Yosh Nijman, LG Jon Runyan Jr, C Josh Myers, RG Royce Newman, RT Zach Tom, G/T Sean Rhyan, T/G Cole Van Lanen, G/C Jake Hanson, Veteran Tackle TBA.Changes: Hanson (in), LT David Bakhtiari (out), T Rasheed Walker (out).Toughest cut: None.Injury concern: Bakhtiari and Elgton Jenkins are on PUP as they battle back from torn ACL. Bakhtiaris concern runs much deeper than the start of this season, obviously. Will he play again? If he does, will he return to his All-Pro form?Analysis: Khris Middleton Jersey The fate of the season will hinge on a pair of reconstructed anterior cruciate ligaments. Typically, an ACL is a nine- or 10-month injury. Bakhtiari has doubled that timeline and still hasnt practiced this summer. Its not his fault, obviously. Would the Packers have reached the Super Bowl in 2020 had Bakhtiari not suffered his knee injury at practice? Would the Packers have reached the Super Bowl in 2021 with Bakhtiari and Jenkins on the field? Regardle s, Vikings pa s rushers ZaDarius Smith and Danielle Hunter have to be drooling at the po sibility of facing Newman or Tom at right tackle. The gue s here is the Packers will be ultra-conversative with Bakhtiari given how many detours his comeback took last s

Cowboys Mike McCarthy says Trysten Hills tackle of

Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy doesn't think defensive lineman Trysten Hill's tackle ofSeahawks running back Chris Carson which sidelined Carsonfor the remainder of Sunday's game was dirty.McCarthy, speaking to media on Monday, said he only saw a tackle that needs to be more fundamentally sound."You see fundamentals particularly early in the season, particularly this season that we need to continue to work through and do a better job Eric Thames Jersey of," McCarthy said. "I think he was just trying to wrap and roll, and the result of it occurred in an injury. By no means do we want to see Alex Wilson Jersey players get hurt, especially when it's unnece sary. But trust me, there was zero intent involved there."The tackle in question occurred late in the Seahawks' 38-31 victory over Dallas. Hill was involved in a tackle on Carson, whorushed for a Brent Suter Jersey short gain with just over three minutes remaining in regulation. After Carson was down, however, Hill spun and twisted Carson's knee in a "gator roll," sending him limping to the sideline. Hill wasn't penalized.Trysten Hill with the alligator death roll on Chris Carson's leg Slightly Biased (@BiasedSlightly) MORE: Seattle coach Pete Carroll, who said Carson suffered a Grade 1 knee sprain, didn't share McCarthy's opinion ofthe play."Yeah, I was really pi sed about that one," . "I don't know what's going to happen with that, but I was pi sed because that guy hurt him, unfortunately."According to a report from , Carson's injury is considered to require one to weeks ofrecovery time. reported that Hill will likely face a fine from the league for the move.Regardle s of the recovery Jhoulys Chacin Jersey time or Hill's punishment, Stephen Vogt Jersey many NFL players including Seahawks linebacker K.J. Wrighttook i sue with Hill's move, saying it broke a league code on not trying to injure other players. this needs to be addre sed ASAP!! Doing dirty dumb malicious shit like this can end someones season! This is clearly intentional and getting fined isnt enough. Im all for guys playing hard but I have zero tolerance for this KJ (@KJ_WRIGHT34)

Eagles playoff picture Breaking down Philadelphias

The Eagles (9-7) are back in the NFC playoffs for the 2021 NFL season after mi sing the tournament last year. Philadelphia Desmond Ridder Jersey has punched its fourth playoff ticket in five seasons, the first under rookie coach Nick Sirianni.With a wild-card berth behind the NFC East-winning Cowboys in hand, the Eagles plan to rest key players in Week 18, including quarterback Jalen Hurts. The team has its fair share of injuries and more than the average COVID-19 concerns going into Week 18's Saturday night home game vs. Dallas. With that in mind, ere's breaking down the Eagles' seeding scenarios:NFL WEEK 18 PICKS: | How the Eagles can Ray Buchanan Jersey clinch the No. 6seed in NFCThe Eagles are the current No. 7 seed, or positioned for the third and final wild-card berth nin the conference. They are behind the No. 6 49ers, also 9-7, because they lost to them in Week 2.Philadelphia, however, clinched a playoff spot ahead of San Francisco. That's because only oneNFC team behind both teamsthe Saints, KhaDarel Hodge Jersey who are 8-8going into their Sunday afternoon game against the Falcons can also get to nine wins.The 49ers will secure their No. 6 spot with a win over the Rams as road underogs, leaving the Eagles staying at No. 7, with no change from Week 17.But the Eagles can get to No. 6 even by losing to the Cowboys. If the 49ers lose to the Rams and the Saints beat the Falcons, then the Eagles, 49ers and Saints all would be 9-8.Because of better conference records, the Eagles and Saints, who both would be 7-5 in NFC Brandon Copeland Jersey play, would get in over the 49ers, who would be only 6-6. The Eagles would then move up to No. 6 to break their tie with the Saints because they beat them at home, 40-29 in Week 11.The Eagles could also beat the Cowboys and jump to No. 6 overthe losing 49ers, with whatever the Saints do being irrevelant. In the event the Eagles, 49ers and Saints all lose, the Eagles would remain No. 7.With not much difference between No. 6 and No. 7, that's why Sirianni and the Eagles don't want to risk injuries to key players. The Eagles cannot move up to No. 5, because the Cardinals (11-5) and Rams (12-4), vying for the NFC West title,both have a multiple-game cushion in Isaiah Oliver Jersey the standings.
