Washington HC Ron Rivera on why there’s an emphasis on taunting: Says they simply don’t want it towards another player which could then escalate into something much worse. Also says it’s not a good look and pop warner/peewee football kids shouldn’t have to see that from the NFL. pic.twitter.com/TabrEHD0vx

.@WashingtonNFL #taylorheinicke making a classic “high/low” read on 2-17. Both of #WFT QB know how to play the position; in fact it’s the least of my concerns about this improving football team. #BaldysBreakdowns pic.twitter.com/vGgcsb1G4P

Dyami Brown looked ready to contribute in a bigger role during his preseason debut last week. Sammis Reyes, meanwhile, has a lot of work to do. I took a closer look at both players to see how they performed against the Patriots: https://t.co/jmXlfqCK1O

I’ve had a few of you saying this, but I dunno if I buy it. Is another team willing to sacrifice a full roster spot to develop a guy that has only been playing the sport for a few months and have to teach him an entirely new system/terminology, delaying his development further? https://t.co/1rVkzskbH5

“There’s a kid named Jeremy Reaves… and to me he epitomizes what grit is.”
Goes on to say they had to cut Reaves after a great training camp last year, put him on the PS, and they ultimately signed him to the 53 instead of bringing in a former Panthers safety (Tre Boston?)

Bears hope that their rookie second-round pick can make it back in November, but there’s a real chance his season is over.

Boy the Bears cutting Charles Leno because they drafted Jenkins in the second, only for Jenkins to have back surgery is… not ideal. https://t.co/iL3lc2w4oi
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) August 18, 2021
#Bears let Charles Leno Jr. go partially because of drafting Jenkins. Leno Jr. had started over 90 games in a row at LT for @ChicagoBears and Jenkins doesn’t even make it to one. https://t.co/zRqOKRQxzN

After the first round of cuts, the NFL’s vaccination number is 92 percent, which is about where it was last week. Question is as more cuts come, will the number decline or are there still enough players assured of making rosters getting vaccinated to offset those released.

While we still work through visuals and stuff, what are two players you want to see compared side by side? https://t.co/Nd7UgtCUYx

Aaron Rodgers recently told @peter_king he loves TE6 Bronson Kaufusi.
When Rodgers praised Jake Kumerow last year, the Packers cut him and he’s now on the Bills.@RobDemovsky: “I can’t wait to see what Kaufusi does in Buffalo this year.”

This teenager in Canada got a knock on his door from the neighbors and thought he might be in trouble for dribbling his basketball all hours of the day.
That’s not why they were there.
