PHI - Eagles getting contacted by multiple teams for Hasaan Reddick
PHI - Tush push is at no risk - per Troy Vincent it wasn't discussed at all for rule changes, and you don't punish a team that does things well

They should ban all “aiding the runner” type pushes. Hard enough to wrap up a guy like Josh Allen and then have 1000 pounds of o-lineman shoving him into end zone seems really one sided.

Funny too that you can’t pull the runner forward but you can push him forward.

"The NFL Combine is a great opportunity for front offices, reporters and fans alike to get to know draft prospects. Every year we are exposed to some interesting opinions. For example, Texas Tech defensive back Tyler Owens doesn't believe in other planets. We also found a prospect this week who doesn't believe in birds.

Illinois tight end Tip Reiman told reporters on Thursday that he is a member of the "Birds aren't real" movement, per Owen Riese. Birds are not simply creatures found in nature, but perhaps devices that serve a darker purpose.

"Have you ever seen a baby pigeon?" Reiman asked. "How do we know that power lines aren't pigeon recharging stations?""

This oughta aid their draft prospects, and likely get them beat up.

Caleb Williams - besides not participating in any drills, he is also skipping the medical testing - first time this is happened it is believed
PIT - GM says they want Mason Rudolph back - only QB signed is Pickett, also team is non-committal on Najee Harris' 5th year option
NO - releasing S Marcus Maye
KC - growing optimism that Chiefs and Chris Jones will get a deal done per reports
NFL - Competition committee looking at the grounding rule
NYJ/KC - something driving the Jets to stay in the news... First Mecole Hardman called out how bad the team was doing once Aaron Rodgers was hurt, and how he loves playing in KC as they know how to win. Post that pod cast statement a few Jets teammates came out and stated they believe Hardman gave game plan information to Eagles and Chiefs(while he was a Jet). Now Hardman and his agent are denying it. What a mess the Jets are...
HOU - OT Laremy Tunsil underwent a left knee procedure to clean some things up - he isn't expected to miss much time at all
J.K. Dobbins soon to be FA , is now sprinting in his recovery from Achilles injury

Chiefs | Chris Jones entering his final days with KC? Fri Mar 1, 12:13 AM

Kansas City Chiefs impending free-agent DL Chris Jones appears unlikely to remain with the team after his contract efficiently expires at the start of the new league year on March 13, according to NFL.com's Jeffri Chadiha. Among the many factors, Chadiha cites the fact that Kansas City has never given substantial money to a player who has reached the age of 30 (Jones will hit that mark in July) as well as Jones' desire to get paid handsomely (he was asking for a deal in the $30 million annual salary range neighborhood last year).??

Big mistake IMO as he’s key to that defense.

I expect a franchise tag and then a deal later in the summer. They paid him i think 5M last week to reserve rights to franchise him

Also, apparently he has denied releasing his medical records to all 32 teams. Also never done before.

TE Brock Bowers will not be working out at the Combine, it was just announced here at Lucas Oil.
