Jon Gruden back in business

Absent from the league since 2021 after the revelation of abusive and racist emails, the former head coach of the Raiders Jon Gruden is once again active within an NFL franchise. According to the Times-Picayune, the Saints have brought in Gruden for a week to help set up a sizeable attack for Derek Carr.

The two men shared 4 seasons with the Raiders. Above all, Gruden is the ideal man to help Carr and the attack of the Saints to ally. Because since 2006, the attack of Sean Payton was influenced by Gruden, the two men having worked together at the Eagles in 1997. Gruden was the offensive coordinator, and Payton the quarterbacks coach. Protection protocols and many pass concepts would be similar.

“It’s a new system with a new language, but a lot of similarities to the things I grew up with,” Carr explains. “There is always a learning curve, but not as big as it would be in another system or another attack. »

Lions stuck in betting business

Barely a month since the Lions saw 4 players caught red-handed for betting on NFL and NCAA games strictly prohibited by league rules, and yet Detroit may not have seen the end of the tunnel.

According to Kalyn Kahler (The Athletic), the NFL is under investigation into a fifth Michigan franchise player for the same facts. The identity of the culprit is still unknown.

Let the supporters be reassured, they should not be deprived of Amon-Ra St-Brown or Aidan Hutchinson since according to Kahler, the offending player would not be a major element of the team.

Kenny Pickett had his playbook stolen for 30 minutes

Bill Belichick makes his photocopies faster and faster. WTAE reports Kenny Pickett’s (QB, Steelers) vehicle was stolen last week while making a promotional appearance at a car dealership. Problem: his playbook was also in the vehicle.

Fortunately, the SUV and the precious playbook were found barely 30 minutes later. A man was even arrested. And no, it wasn’t about Belichick, because the first sentence was a joke.

injuries

– After an almost white season (only 1 tenure), Shaquille Leonard (LB, Colts) is still not ready to train. His new coach Shane Steichen admitted to having no specific timetable for the return of the linebacker, injured in the vertebrae last season.

– Javonte Williams (RB, Broncos) participated in training on a limited basis on Thursday. This is very good news for a player who suffered a tear in three knee ligaments at the beginning of October 2022.

– Jamin Davis (LB, Commanders) hasn’t trained for the past few days as he had to undergo knee surgery. Ron Rivera assured CommandersWire that this is not a long term problem.

In short

– Will Ferrell as John Madden? According to Deadline, the crazy comedy specialist is about to inherit the role of the former Raiders coach in a film simply called “Madden. It is Amazon who would be at the helm of the project.

Fullbacks, it’s over in Kansas City

Gone are the days of the overpowering fullbacks of the late 90s and early 2000s. Over the years, the workload of players playing in this very special position has been reduced. Until the disappearance. At least in Kansas City. Fullback Michael Burton left during the offseason, and he will not be replaced.

“Tight ends can fill that role,” Andy Reid told the Kansas City Star. “We know Noah Gray can do all of that, and that’s the direction we’ve chosen to take. We have several tight ends that we are comfortable with, so maybe we will keep one more tight end rather than a fullback. »

No fair catch for KaVontae Turpin

A fly stop on a kickoff will now put the ball back to 25 yards. Well very little for KaVontae Turpin (WR, Cowboys). This is what he assured one of the journalists of the official site of his team.

“I don’t care because I won’t ask for any fair catch. I’m honest: none. »

We’ll see what his coaches say.

The Kelce brothers love Thursday games

They’re rare, but there are NFL players who love Thursday games. Jason and Travis Kelce assured it in their podcast. Even if it means being a little insulting to their colleagues.

For them, the meetings on Thursday are lighter training sessions and more rest afterwards.

“I’m totally for Thursday games because it means we have light practice during the week, we don’t practice, and then we have three days after the game,” explained Jason. “Players who are against Thursday games just want to be talked about. It’s impossible to be against Thursday games if you have two working neurons. »

A franchise interested in Antonio Brown?

Always an occasional contributor to the news section (he was recently in the columns for not having paid the salaries of players on his team), Antonio Brown always seems to have the NFL in the back of his mind. On CBS, his agent JR Rickert said that the player was “looking for the right team”.

Also according to Rickert, at least one team would have shown a real interest in giving the ex-Steeler a seventieth chance.

For the moment, Brown combines the cap of owner and player of the Albany Empire, a team in the National Arena League. Well, player…Brown was supposed to play Sunday night. Except that he was ultimately not on the ground. WNYT.com reports that paperwork confirming successful completion of a medical visit was not submitted in time. It’s unclear if he failed the visit, made it too late, or just didn’t make it.
