The have been hit hard by injuries over the past two seasons and the bad luck carried over into the first week of training camp. On the first day of full-padded training camp practices, the Eagles were dealt a ma sive blow to the strongest unit on their defense. The Eagles announced Monday defensive tackle -- the team's biggest free agent acquisition this offseason -- was held out of the first practice with an upper-body injury and will be out multiple weeks. Defensive end is also listed as "week-to-week" with a lower-body injury.It's unclear how long both players will be out, but the amount of time both defensive linemen are projected to mi s is significant.The Eagles signed Hargrave to a three-year, $39 million deal this offseason to solidify the defensive line on the interior. Playing Hargrave in a one-gap scheme next to was expected to benefit both pa s rushers in their quest of sacking the quarterback and disrupting the pocket. Hargrave got pre sure on 14.2% of his pa s rushes last season, third in the NFL behindand() -- and that was as a nose tackle in a 3-4 front.Fortunately for the Eagles, they do have some significant depth at defensive tackle. , who the Eagles signed to a three-year deal in the 2019 offseason, will slide into Hargrave's spot next to Cox and still provide that pre sure up the middle.On the positive side of things, Philadelphia's decision to re-sign last week looks a lot better -- he Jerick McKinnon Jersey will play a more significant role with Hargrave sidelined. Jackson was expected to get his share of snaps at defensive end, where he split time on the edge with the and as an extra pa s rusher before signing with Philadelphia, but he will kick inside in Hargrave's absence. Now that Jackson is starting at defensive tackle, the Eagles won't be using him on the edge as much -- at least until Hargrave returns. will take over as the No. 3 defensive tackle, but the Eagles lack depth behind him. Philadelphia could sign a veteran if Hargrave mi ses a significant amount of time.Curry fills that role as an extra defensive end, splitting time with for snaps. Barnett's injury also played a major factor in the Curry signing, especially with the "week-to-week" designation. The regular season opener is le s than four weeks away, so Barnett could be back in time for the Week 1 tilt with Washington, but he will have to acclimate himself into football shape. Barnett is the starter opposite of at defensive end, meaning his injury opens up playing time for Curry and Sweat.Curry is the favorite to start opposite Graham in place of Barnett, with Sweat taking over the No. 3 defensive end role he was supposed to slide into before the team re-signed Curry last week. and will battle for snaps as the No. 4 defensive end.Right guard and wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside are listed as "day-to-day" with lower-body injuries. Both players were also absent for the first full-padded practice. Cameron Thomas Jersey

The are banking on third-year offensive tackle Thayer Munford Jr. to take the next step this season. With the departure of Jermaine Eluemunor in free agency, Munford Jr. is expected to step in as the full-time starter at right tackle.In 10 starts last season six at right tackle and four at left tackle the former Buckeye surrendered four sacks and 28 QB pre sures and scored an 80.4 run-blocking grade.Munford Jr. was Las Vegas' top depth offensive lineman in 2023, as he often filled in for the injured Eluemunor and Kolton Miller at both tackle positions. Though he displayed his ability to play both left and right tackle last season, offensive line coach James Cregg believes Munford Jr. The 24-year-old played 81% of his collegiate snaps at left tackle in his five-year career at Ohio State. Here is what Cregg had to say about Munford's performance in 2023, why he's Montrezl Harrell Jersey a better fit at left tackle, and his development this spring:"Especially watching the latter part of last year, he really jumped out at me a lot, and hes been a good fit over there," Cregg said. "His athleticism, hes untapped. Hes still learning. Hes a raw football player. Hes still developing in my opinion. Hes getting better every practice. Hes getting more comfortable over there, but I think hes kind of like talking about Dylan Parham hes natural on the left, like you put him on the left he can totally do it. Thats what he did in college, he played both sides. He played more left than right, but he can go both directions. You saw it last year he can go step in for Kolton Miller when he needed to, and hes been a pleasant surprise over there at right. Hes getting better too, so Ive been really fired up about him."Raiders OL coach James Cregg said they moved guard Dylan Parham to the right side because "we're going to run more wide zone and he is more natural on that side ... his footwork is better." Vic Tafur (@VicTafur) Munford Jr. will have a crucial role on Las Vegas' offensive line in 2024. The former seventh-round pick's versatility will be a valuable a set, but the Raiders must find a clear answer at right tackle. If Munford Jr. can be that answer, the Silver and Black's offensive line could be one of the best units in the league. Landry Shamet Jersey

As he told reporters on Wednesday, the would have come to him first if they were thinking of making a deal."I would have people come and, 'So I hear you're getting traded to Tampa,'" Brees . "Oh, OK, great. And then the next week, it's like, OK, who is it this week? Buffalo? Or wherever else. So I lost track. But again, I know that if things like that were taking place that I have the type of relationship with our team, our organization, that I would know about those things. So when I hear them second-hand or from a media outlet or whatever, I don't really pay it much attention."When Graham was dealt, he described a followed by an intense curiosity surrounding his destination.But Ed Reed Jersey the reality is, there's probably no situation where a player is intensely involved in trade negotiations unle s a deal needs to be worked out on the other end. As ludicrous as dealing Brees sounds right now, would anyone have been completely surprised given the ' turnover this offseason?In addition, would involving Brees in those talks be good busine s? Probably not.The good news, though, is that Brees wouldn't deny sticking around a lot longer when asked about his contract on Wednesday. Though it runs through 2017, the balky cap numbers could be prime for an extension to even out the money.When asked about the po sibility, he had this:"I mean, listen, if there was, I wouldn't say anything about it, just like there's a lot of things that I won't comment on from a contract standpoint," Brees said.

"Just win, baby" was Al Davis' favorite saying during his nearly 50-year run with the organization. During that time, Davis, who initially served as the franchise's first succe sful coach before becoming the club's general manager and part owner, enjoyed a lot of winning while helping the Raiders become one of the NFL's bedrock franchises.No profe sional football franchise was more succe sful than the Raiders from 1963-85. During that span, the Raiders won 12 division championships, an AFL title and three Super Bowl titles. They made the playoffs 15 times while advancing to 10 conference title games. The Raiders suffered only two losing seasons during that span.The succe s of the Raiders during that time helped them become one of the NFL's most popular teams. Their physical nature (they led the NFL in personal foul penalties in '76, their first championship season) also resulted in them being one of the league's most polarizing clubs. But regardle s of whether or not you cheered for Braylon Edwards Jersey them, the talent the Raiders po se sed during those years, and the succe s they had on the field, was undeniable.With the start of the 2020 season just around the corner, we decided to create the Raiders' all-time 53-man roster, built the way modern teams create their 53-man rosters. Before we dive into the roster, here's a rundown of some of the tougher decisions that were made for final cuts.Big-name roster cuts: It was hard leaving George Blanda, Marv Hubbard and Pete Banaszak, three Raiders legends, off the roster. Blanda, an iconic Raider, had already put together a Hall of Fame career by the time he joined the Raiders as a 40-year-old kicker/backup quarterback in 1967. Hubbard, a fullback, was a three-time Pro Bowler who retired with a whopping 4.8 yards per carry average. Banaszak, a halfback, spent 13 seasons in Oakland (leading the league in rushing touchdowns 1975) and was a key member of the Raiders' first Super Bowl team.Daryle Lamonica over Rich Gannon: There's no denying Gannon's succe s in Oakland. The 2002 league MVP, Gannon earned four consecutive Pro Bowl selections with the Raiders while guiding the franchise to its most recent Super Bowl appearance. But the nod ultimately went to Lamonica, who won two league MVP awards in Oakland while leading the Raiders to their first Super Bowl. Lamonica, who led the league in pa sing in 1969 and in touchdown pa ses on two other occasions, posted a 62-16-6 overall record as the Raiders' starting quarterback.Clem Daniels over Clarence Davis: Davis is firmly entrenched in Raiders lore. His in the '74 playoffs ended the ' two-year reign atop the NFL. His 137 rushing yards in Super Bowl XI helped the Raiders rush for a then-Super Bowl record 266 yards. But Davis' regular season numbers pale in comparison to what Daniels achieved during his seven seasons in Oakland. A four-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro, Daniels, the team's first 1,000-yard rusher, led the AFL in rushing in 1963 while helping Oakland post its first winning season. He also played a significant role in the Raiders' first Super Bowl run in 1967.Now that we've tackled the roster's toughest decisions, let's take a look at the Raiders' all-time, 53-man roster.Members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame are denoted with a (*).OffenseStarterBackupDepthQBKen Stabler*Jim PlunkettDaryle LamonicaRBMarcus Allen*Bo JacksonClem DanielsFBMark van EaghenWRFred Biletnikoff*Jerry Rice*WRTim Brown*Art PowellSWRCliff BranchJames JettTEDave Casper*Todd ChristensenLTArt Shell*Harry SchuhLGGene Upshaw*Steve WisniewskiCJim Otto*Dan MosebarRGWayne HawkinsGeorge BuehlerRTHenry LawrenceLincoln KennedyThere was no drama as far as selecting the Raiders' starting quarterback. While Plunkett () is extremely deserving of his backup spot, making "The Snake" the starter was an obvious choice. The league's MVP during the 1974 season, . During that span, he led the NFL in touchdown pa ses and completion percentage on two separate occasions. Stabler also guided Oakland to five straight AFC championship games as well as the franchise's first Super Bowl win at the end of the 1976 season.Running back was also a pretty easy choice. While the Raiders have had some good ones, the starting job went to Allen, the franchise's all-time career rushing leader. The 1985 NFL MVP, earned him MVP honors following the Raiders' 38-9 win over Washington in Super Bowl XVIII. Complementing Allen is Jackson, his teammate in Los Angeles from 1987-90. The first athlete to be named an All-Star in two different sports, in three of his four seasons with the Raiders.You'll be hard-pre sed to find a better group of tight ends and receivers than the ones on this roster. This unit includes four Hall of Famers in Casper, Brown, Biletnikoff and Rice. Branch, the only member of this group to play in a role in all three of the Raiders' Super Bowl wins, . Another member of this group that deserves more Hall of Fame consideration is Christensen, who led the NFL in receptions on two separate occasions.The Raiders' offensive line is nearly as loaded as their receiving corps. Leading the way here is the Hall of Fame trio of center Jim "Double O" Otto, left guard Gene Upshaw and left tackle Art Shell. During the trio's seven seasons together, the Raiders' offense led the league in scoring three times while finishing second and third in that department on two other occasions.DefenseStarterBackupDepthLDEHowie Long*Ben DavidsonDTOtis SistrunkChester McGlocktonNTReggie KinlawRDELyle AlzadoLOLBPhil VillipianoRILBDan ConnersGus OttoLILBMatt MillenGreg BiekertROLBTed Hendricks*Rod MartinLCBMike Haynes*Terry McDanielRCBWillie Brown*Lester HayesSSFSJack TatumVann McElroyDave GraysonThe Raiders' defense boasts at least one Hall of Fame player at each level.

He spent seven seasons playing alongside Martin, whose three interceptions during the Raiders' 27-10 win over the in Super Bowl XV r. The Raiders' linebacker room also includes Mack, who earned three Pro Bowl and two All-Pro nods during his four seasons in Oakland.The Raiders' secondary may be their most talented position group. The unit includes two current members of the Hall of Fame (Haynes and Brown), with Woodson being eligible for induction in 2021. The Raiders' defensive backfield also includes the intimidating duo of Atkinson and Tatum, helped fuel the NFL's best rivalry during the '70s. Hayes, a member of the NFL's All-Decade team for the '80s, won Defensive Player of the Year honors after leading the NFL with 13 interceptions during the 1980 season. Three years later he and Haynes helped in Super Bowl XVIII.

Oakland's kicker for 17 seasons, Janikowski's 1,799 career points as a Raider is a franchise record.The second pure kicker to earn induction in Canton, Guy, a seven-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro, was the Raiders' punter during each of their three Super Bowl wins.

Perspective is a wonderful thing. It allows you to stand back and view a wider picture but sometimes something catches your eye and you want to see it Akiem Hicks Jersey close up and understand why it does what it does and what caught my eye was the article .Now Im a woman who writes about football. I dont feel the need to say that sentence very often, unlike Omid Djalili who starts every comedy sketch with As an Iranian I, I dont say it because I feel it is superfluous but this is one of times I feel compelled to put my gender in context with my pa sion, the pa sion of football.According to the article there was no evidence of sexism in football from the BBC documentary. I agree that the programme was quite woolly but to say there was no evidence is clearly blind, deaf and dumb.There are a number of women working in the upper echelons of football but they are outnumbered by men. I agree that a majority of working women dont want to work in football but that doesnt mean that the women that do should be treated as second cla s citizens. Women that have been employed to carry out a role but have been hindered because of their gender and the evidence in the programme showed some have been locked out of pre s conferences or meetings or there have been signs put up saying No Women Beyond This Point within the clubs. You might as well hand them Panda Pops and bags of crisps and sit them out in the car park whilst the grown ups talk. Its ridiculous and illegal.Now lets talk about banter. I bloody love banter. I dish out as much as I get back. When a bloke starts calling me names I know that he has reached his limit and has resulted to ill conceived insults instead. When some men find out Im into football their first response is to challenge me with some form of sports quiz. Apparently knowing what the offside rule is immediately qualifies you for your coaching badges in some mens eyes. My husband on the other hand, who had little interest in football, was brought into the conversation without a batter of an eyelid. I have to prove myself to be worthy of being a football fan. A little sexist maybe??What often happens is that when these men realise my level of knowledge of the Bosman ruling they get a little turned on, which means I can never win because now theyre not thinking about football they are concentrating on what cup size I am. Heres a revelation for you. I dont watch the womens game. Why? I dont enjoy it. That doesnt make me sexist against my own gender its purely a matter of enjoyment. Why I should have to write about something I dont enjoy and Sian Ma sey have to officiate womens games if she doesnt want to, as indicated in the article?Sian Ma sey has proved she is an excellent official. I have no problem with any woman being an official at the match but nor am I going to give her an easy time if she does get a decision wrong. The difference isnt whether theyre black, white, tangerine or have a vagina, its whether theyre competent and consistent in how they referee.Then we come to female sports presenters. There are some brilliant ones Jacqui Oatley (not Oakley) and Gabby Logan, spring to mind because their delivery is knowledgeable and measured. I think the most sexist part of the article in question was when the writer said about Gabby Logan just be thankful you have a job in the game you profe s to love, even though you only got it in the first place thanks to your late father and your good looks. Well Im sure the most shocking aspect of that statement for Gabby would be to find out that her father is dead not that she got a job because shes pretty.There are however some extremely shrill female commentators that make your ears bleed when there is a build up in play. Give me Alan Green and Gabby Logan any day of the week (but not Garth Crookes).So to Karen Brady. Im afraid I cant defend her because I think shes bent.Lets leave the final words to the author of the article.You see that is the thing that really irritates me. Women want to be part of this mans world yet are the first to complain when we act like men! So now we have to change the way we have always behaved to fit in around them.I would say no you have no obligation to change but with attitudes as antiquated as that the modern world will deem you irrelevant anyway. Evidence of sexisim in football may not have been fully conveyed in the documentary but this article more than made a case for it, love. Tongue firmly in cheek. David Montgomery Jersey

ARLINGTON, Texas -- Cardale Jones' smile was contagious as a Gatorade bath splashed down on head coach Urban Meyer following Ohio State's in the College Football Playoff National Championship Game on Monday night.The quarterback's meteoric rise from third-stringer to starting quarterback for a national title winner is the stuff that those around the state of Ohio will talk about for decades to come. He won three straight games against the three 2014 Heisman Trophy finalists as an underdog, earning comparisons to and due to his size and arm strength.His quick rise has been followed by questions as to whether the draft-eligible redshirt sophomore will cut short his stay in Columbus. When asked after the title game whether he will return for another year with the Buckeyes, the affable signal-caller left the door open to capitalizing on his intriguing talents at the next level."I'm not going to say 'definitely,'" Jones said. "(The NFL) is something that I'll consider. My most important focus is getting my degree."Jones attended Fork Union Military Academy for Kyle Allen Jersey one semester, so he would be the required three years removed from high school to apply for early entry into the 2015 . If he decides to return to OSU, he faces a potentially tough battle at retaining his starting job, despite leading the team to the title, due to the presence of former starter J.T. Barrett and po sibly even two-time Big Ten Player of the Year Braxton Miller.Would Jones accept returning to a backup role?"Now that's a good question," Jones said. "I don't know."The potential battle to be the starter for the defending national champions in 2015 was already plenty intriguing. Jones' decision before the Jan. 15 deadline for undercla smen to apply for early entry could just add fuel to the already intense QB fire for the Buckeyes.Here are nine other things we learned from Monday night's championship game:2. Ezekiel Elliott is one of the most dynamic rushing talents in the college game. The Buckeyes' sophomore gashed Wisconsin, Alabama and Oregon for a combined 696 yards in three postseason games. If TCU quarterback Trevone Boykin put himself in the 2015 Heisman Trophy conversation with a thrashing of Ole Mi s in the Peach Bowl, Elliott put himself in the center of it.3. Dignitary dish: Among the notables on hand for the game were Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James, a big Ohio State supporter, former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who is a member of the College Football Playoff selection committee, and of course, Nike CEO and Ducks fan Phil Knight.4. Somewhere, Kaelin Clay was yelling on his couch at the replay officials. Oregon receiver Byron Marshall apparently learned nothing from Utah's Clay, who lost a touchdown against Oregon earlier this season by inexplicably . Marshall did pretty much the same thing against the Buckeyes, but unlike Clay, Marshall had his touchdown upheld on replay review.5. Chris Ash didn't ask to face all three Heisman Trophy finalists, but that's the hand he was dealt. The Ohio State co-defensive coordinator faced Wisconsin's Melvin Gordon, Alabama's Amari Cooper, and Oregon's Marcus Mariota -- the trio who went to New York in December as Heisman finalists -- in three consecutive postseason games. How did they fare? Gordon was held to 76 yards on 26 carries in the Big Ten title game, his second-lowest total of the season; Cooper was limited to 71 yards on nine catches in the CFP semifinal; Mariota connected on 24 of 37 pa ses for 333 yards and a pair of touchdowns.6. OSU athletic director says QB Braxton Miller is returning. Miller, the two-time Big Ten Player of the Year, was seen celebrating with his teammates after their triumphant win over Oregon, but rumors continue to swirl that he'll transfer to another program for his final collegiate season in 2015. However, Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith said Monday that Miller told him he was coming back to Columbus for next season. "Braxton has told me he's coming back," Smith said. "I don't know what upcoming decision he's got."7. Buckeyes defensive tackle MichaelBennett had a quiet night. At least, on the field. The senior leader of the OSU defensive line recorded an a sisted tackle on Oregon's opening touchdown drive to start the game, but didn't make a stop the rest of the night.8. Whatever flaws NFL scouts find in Ohio State receiver DevinSmith's game, his ability to stretch the field won't be one of them. Smith made one grab for 45 yards against the Ducks, pushing his average per catch for the season to a whopping 28.2 yards (33 for 931).9. Pair of Oregon undercla smen still unsure of next steps. Ducks defensive linemen DeForest Buckner and Arik Armstead have quickly jumped onto NFL radars thanks to their play in the Ducks' run to the title game. However, neither was ready to announce a draft decision Monday night. "I'm not focused on that right now, I'm just trying to soak it all in with my teammates," Buckner said. "I got an evaluation back but I'm just not going to talk about it, it's not a subject in my head right now." Armstead, considered to be the better prospect of the two, said he had not even received his evaluation from the Advisory Board. "I haven't made a decision yet. I'll have to sit down with my family and pray about it," Armstead said. "It's a tough decision I'm going to have to make."10. Urban Meyer thinks Marcus Mariota will be great in the NFL. over Mariota's intentions for the 2015 , and if he decides to apply for early entry, he'll have one fan for sure in . After containing the Heisman Trophy winner as best as he could to earn a third national title, the veteran coach noted there were plenty of traits the Ducks' signal-caller has that will translate to the next level. "Oh sure," Meyer said. "He'll be a great NFL player."Follow on Twitter __. Desmond King II Jersey

His mobility naturally raises his risk of injury, and Sunday's game showed exactly that.2. Trevor SiemianSiemian is first in line if Fields is forced to mi s any time. The 30-year-old veteran has started games with the Broncos, Jets and Saints, and he does have a respectable 41:27 career touchdown-interception ratio.3.
