The Jets have released OL Spencer Long
— Jason La Canfora (@JasonLaCanfora) February 5, 2019
Long was the #Redskins' 3rd-round pick in 2014. He signed a 4-year, $27.4 million contract with the #Jets last offseason. https://t.co/RjJyhE7RP4
— Jake Russell (@_JakeRussell) February 5, 2019
This is surprising. Perhaps the #Redskins bring back a familiar face. https://t.co/XbQj1Nd86p

The Redskins should *consider* re-signing Spencer Long after his release by the Jets. The market will be cheaper than last year for him and Long could play left guard. Washington must also consider why NY released Long after one season and ponder other FA/Draft options. https://t.co/Cab0kdgRM6

Can't really afford to spend much because of the cap crunch and they need a LG. Might be a good fit for both sides. #Redskins https://t.co/NG5UJSCH9T

Agree. Callahan helped Long a lot develop into a guard https://t.co/ys9mIjmbLp

Missed this earlier today but the #Redskins have engaged in contract extension talks with guard Brandon Scherff and have had preliminary contract talks with running back Adrian Peterson, according to @john_keim. https://t.co/vAyCUy6oM8

The #Falcons are releasing CB Robert Alford, sources say. The 2013 second-round pick had 10 INTs in 88 games in his six years in Atlanta. Was due $8.5m this upcoming season. Figure he gets another gig before the start of free agency.

The #Eagles have informed Nick Foles that they will pick up his $20 million option for the 2019 season, per an ESPN report.
— Eliot Shorr-Parks (@EliotShorrParks) February 6, 2019
Now, the ball is in Foles' court.
A look at what picking up the option means and what could be coming next:https://t.co/MxivGQbkMb
After having his option picked up by the Eagles, Nick Foles now can void by the option by sending the Eagles written notice of his decision and paying back the team $2M. At that point, he becomes a free agent and the franchise tag is in play.

Across the country, people are questioning if Kyler Murray is committed to football, baseball, or neither.

My guess is they just looked at his W-L record with Tannehill and put all the negatives on injuries and roster construction.

I'm kinda shocked by how many people are calling this the worst Super Bowl ever. Five years ago we had a Super Bowl that was 22-0 at halftime on the way to a 43-8 final. I'll take 3-3 midway through the fourth quarter over that any day.

Imagine being a legitimate phenom at your position, played 8 years for a franchise who constantly surrounded you with underachievers and perpetual bums, mismanaged your injuries, all so that in the end your career is compromised by an Achilles rupture. Feel sick for John Wall.

Craig Foster, Ex Australia captain call on all international sports bodies to place sanctions on Bahrain and Thailand. If they can’t guarantee the safety of a refugee, they can’t guarantee any player’s safety. So clubs and country should be banned from hosting sport events.
