So the Jets are going back to their 90s helmet.

Some internet sleuth said that the NFL shield on those uniforms is wrong for the upcoming season. That might not be the correct uniform after all.

Almost every mock draft is saying that Arizona is getting either Murray or Bosa.
I'm going to predict that they do neither because Arizona is stupid.

Mike McCarthy would get massages while assistants led practice and team meetings, maybe:
From PFT
If you believe that there are no coincidences in life, then you’ll be convinced it was no coincidence that a mostly-positive interview of Packers coach Mike McCarthy debuted at ESPN one day before Bleacher Report published a comprehensive analysis of the perennial dysfunction the Packers experienced under McCarthy and quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
The remarkable story from Tyler Dunne, who previously covered the Packers, deserves a full read. It also will result in at least three different posts here, because we’ve learned that the modern human attention span isn’t conducive to, well, something or other.
Here’s the first chunk of the article that caused me to mutter an expletive. In reference to the perception that McCarthy began to check out late in his tenure with the Packers, Dunne wrote this: “About once a week, a meeting would start up and McCarthy was MIA. Players weren’t quite sure where he was while, for example, an assistant coach would run the team’s final prep on the Saturday before a game. Eventually, word leaked that McCarthy, the one calling plays on game day, was up in his office getting a massage during those meetings.”
Dunne reports that McCarthy’s massage therapist told a player that McCarthy would “sneak her up a back stairway” so that no one would realize that, while the team was working, the coach was not.
“If you’re not a part of meetings, and then you’re trying to be pissed about execution, nobody’s going to really respect you,” an unnamed former Packers front-office member told Dunne. “They’re going to look at you like, ‘Where have you been all week?’ It sounded like he was really just chilling.”
Later in the article, Dunne points out that an unnamed Packers player who had heard about McCarthy’s massage habit wondered whether “Rodgers started that rumor and tried spreading it to anybody that’d listen.” That speaks to the toxic nature of the relationship between coach and quarterback, something that reportedly lasted for a very long time.
And that will be the topic of our next entry regarding Dunne’s story.

Can't really say i'm feeling them
They might look better on the field but the Black and Green stripes look good
The other 2 jerseys in White and Green look too much like College Unis to me

It's the 90's all over again! Also, would everyone stop with the black alternate unis? It's been done to death.

Also the city name in large font across the chest screams college team. I disliked the new Browns uniforms for that reason too. The new green is an improvement though

I don't hate them but they do look like a mid-tier college uni.

And AB now took another step apparently to try to make Juju look bad by sharing a DM Juju sent him while in college. What did the message say? Juju was asking him for advise on how to get better.

Who is advising Antonio Brown right now? Who is in his ear telling him this is a good idea, that this will win people over? Whoever it is, that person's an idiot. But if it's just Brown, then he's even further emphasizing the belief that he's a dick.

Patriots re-signed K Stephen Gostkowski for two years This is a sneaky important signing. Fans around New England seem to have grown weary of Gostkowski because of his misses in the last three Super Bowls, but he’s among the most reliable kickers in football and consistency at kicker is hugely important. If the Patriots let Gostkowski walk, they would have to hope they find his replacement in the Draft (where only three are even projected to be drafted this year) or roll the dice on a free agent retread like Kai Forbath or Cody Parkey. Gostkowski was 20th in field goal percentage in 2018, so I’m not saying I have total faith in him, that there’s no other kicker I’d want, or that the Patriots shouldn’t bring in some competition in training camp, but he was fifth the year prior and considering the options available, it’s better to go with what you know you have versus rolling the dice with unproven talent or players who have worn out welcomes with other franchises.

I get trashing the Steelers GM or Ben Roethlisberger, but Juju is a mensch. Leave him out of your beef, AB.

Yeah, the AB stuff is foul. And inaccurate. Last time I checked, Ju Ju fumbling didn't cause Pittsburgh to blow it by losing to Denver and f***ing Oakland at the closing end of the season. He also didn't make Big Ben play like absolute shit for long stretches with some of the worst looking interceptions of any QB in the league.
