Brandon Aubrey Is an Anomaly. What’s That Worth to the Cowboys?
The record-setting kicker is a restricted free agent and will need a long-term contract sooner or later. How does Dallas compensate a player who's done things no one ever has before?

I created this guy’s profile on the site yesterday, and could not find any publicly available information on him since the Dolphins pulled his biography off their website.
Good luck Jets!

Hard to get a better distillation of centrist politics. Obama's solution is to recommend the podcast of Ezra Klein, who is still going through a months-long PR disaster because he completely and utterly failed at his job of analyzing politics.
Here’s a podcast that does a good job of laying out what’s at stake, and why all of us need to get off the sidelines to demand change.

What should you pay a kicker? Usually, not much. But Brandon Aubrey is an anomaly. What’s that worth to the Cowboys?

Probably the biggest problem with being a game critic is you never hear what other people think of you

Usually with these reports it's pretty easy to tell which side is benefitting enough to leak the news. Here I am a little unsure: Is it the organization that failed to reel in the racist e-mail sender? Or is it the racist e-mail sender that is somehow above a Jets OC job?
The #Jets reached out to Jon Gruden about the idea of joining Aaron Glenn's staff, according to multiple sources. Gruden wasn't interested in the job.

A stunner from @dvnjr.bsky.social and me: Bill Belichick is not a first ballot Hall of Famer. He didn't get elected this year. The 8-time champion failed to 40 out of the 50 votes required for induction.

Is it a good plan?
The Jets have a plan...stay tuned.
The Jets are parting ways with OC Tanner Engstrand, per source.

If I could give the truth serum to every NFL GM and ask them if they preferred Nick Caley to hiring Brian Daboll at offensive coordinator I am curious what the answer would be.

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days.
His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.
