Dan Quinn on the Sam Howell trade:

Dan Quinn, in talking to other reporters at the league meetings (I had to miss these meetings), stressed “the ability from the neck up” for QBs. “There’s so much that goes into it of making decisions and putting the ball in the right spot, the accuracy, the toughness.”

Interesting comment from @DanGrazianoESPN the other day.
He shared that the #Bears flew out two days early to meet with USC Quarterback Caleb Williams, prior to his Pro Day.
They took him out to dinner, and even invited his teammates to get a true gauge of who he is “as a… pic.twitter.com/EJ3ed9Wh7h

Harris on the practice facility/stadium: “I don’t think the two necessarily have to be in the same place. It works fine. And especially when you have three jurisdictions, obviously you want to think about what’s the best thing to engage the whole community.”

“The Cowboys are in a situation with Dak Prescott going into the last year of his deal..
If he leaves after this year the dead money cap charge is $95M that they’d have to spread out..
If he becomes a free agent next year there will be no shortage of suitors” ~ @AdamSchefter pic.twitter.com/pP0o64vDHp

Two other new rules that stand out to me:
* Can place two players on IR before final cuts AND designate them to return in season. Meant season-long designation previously.
* Unlimited number of Emergency QB additions from the PS. pic.twitter.com/gazJSHG9J2

But what about the onside kick? The spontaneous onside kick is done. A traditional onside kick is still available if you qualify. Teams must report when they are about to do it. They can do it when trailing in the 4th Q and they can do it twice. pic.twitter.com/TpuqgSlNIS

The surprise onside kick is now dead. @DeanBlandino says the #Eagles 4th-and-20 proposal could be in play next year if the new kickoff rule actually works this upcoming season.
“Without a viable onside kick option, teams that are behind late in games can’t comeback — and the… https://t.co/D60tLJ2ZLg pic.twitter.com/kfvDR2c1Uy

The teams that play on Christmas Day this season also will have played Saturday, Dec. 21. Thus, in the NFL’s eyes, it will be the equivalent of those teams playing on a Sunday and then a Thursday. https://t.co/EkDFmJxIkl
