Chase Young was asked about his offseason commercial shoots during OTAs and minicamp: “I was making money, baby. Gotta make that money. None of y’all would’ve ducked the money. At the end of the day it’s a job. You feel me? Just like y’all do your job, I do my job.”

Didn’t sound like Chase Young loved the recent batch of criticism he’s faced – “Everybody who talks, just wait ’til down the road. Just keep watching”

Heinicke’s performance last year was gutsy and impressive — without a doubt. But a huge part of why he played well is that TB didn’t have time to game plan for him. I expect him to play much closer to what we’ve been seeing the past couple weeks, unfortunately. https://t.co/DPE9RNO1xF

Bucs HC Bruce Arians on Taylor Heinicke:

Is now a good time to ask why the Panthers released Cam Newton only to give Teddy Bridgewater $60 Million and trade a 2nd for Sam Darnold?

The amount of draft capital spent on Sam Darnold has been pretty incredible hasn’t it? Jets wound up using a 1 and three 2s to draft him. Panthers spent a 2, 4, and 6 to trade for him after the jets gave up on him. That has to be close to a modern nfl record for a non-star.

Odell Beckham Jr went from being unhappy as the #2 in Cleveland to… signing as the #3 in Los Angeles with the Rams.
Do I have that right?
Yeah, I’m sure this will work out great.
— Chad Ryan (@ChadwikoTWW) November 11, 2021
Assuming the #Rams signed OBJ for somewhere between the minimum and $1M for the rest of the year I cant see the “all in” statements. They saved about $1M with the Jackson cut and in theory OBJ may net them a comp pick in the future too.
— Jason_OTC (@Jason_OTC) November 11, 2021
The #Rams gave WR Odell Beckham Jr a 1-year deal worth up to $4.25M, source said.
Details:
— $500K signing bonus
— $750K for the rest of the season
— Another $3M available in team-based incentives for how they finish the regular season and the postseason.— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) November 12, 2021

if you’re a offensive lineman and you make it to the endzone you become eligible in my NFL
— Bill Barnwell (@billbarnwell) November 12, 2021
Rule proposal: Each team gets one play per game where an ineligible OL can catch a pass and it counts. They don’t have to declare it or anything. It can happen at any time.
This is the only thing that can counteract the loss of fun from taunting penalties.

If the #Dolphins hang on to beat the #Ravens, they will have won 2 games in the last 5 days. That would equal the #WashingtonFootball win total for the year and move them ahead of WFT in the standings. @WashingtonNFL would move up to 5th in the current NFL draft order.

Pitt QB Kenny Pickett & UNC QB Sam Howell will draw plenty of in-person eyes tonight. Some 30+ scouts are credentialed for game, including at least five GMs: Kevin Colbert (Steelers), Mike Mayock, George Paton (Broncos), Howie Roseman (Eagles) and Rick Spielman (Vikings). #ESPN
— Chris Mortensen (@mortreport) November 11, 2021
Howie Roseman rarely, if ever, scouts college football games anymore. So his attendance to watch, presumably Pitt QB Kenny Pickett, is noteworthy. https://t.co/fNCEU2gnIT
