Matthew Stafford has signed a new deal with Super Bowl champions Los Angeles Rams. The extension is worth $160m, with $135m guaranteed, over 4 years.

The Rams have been busy, they are trading Robert Woods to the Titans for a 2023 sixth-round pick.

The Falcons have signed former Raiders quarterback Marcus Mariota to a two-year deal, assumably to replace Ryan.

I've always liked Mariota, he's not top tier but he can do a job...only problem is he gets injured too often.

What's happening in Kansas City, does he want too much money to re-sign? Be good for whoever gets him.

Hill traded to the Dolphins.

In exchange Miami sends a 1st, 2nd, and 4th in 2022 as well as a 4th, and 6th in 2023. In total 5 picks going to Kansas City.

Interesting to see what McDaniel can do with two guys like Hill and Waddle. Can't say Tua isn't set up to succeed.

Surprised Chiefs couldn't make things work with Hill - he has been so key to Mahomes and Kelce is getting on in years. Decent but not fantastic return in terms of picks, very close to what the Packers got for Adams

Shocked by the Hill trade but it makes sense given how much he wanted to be paid and the Chiefs' cap position.

"Following the trade of Tyreek Hill, the Chiefs now have 12 picks in the 2022 NFL Draft. No team has more.

They own two picks in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th round.

A major opportunity to replenish the roster in a hurry, especially by addressing their need at WR."

And on the cheap with the major contract for Mahomes. Not a bad bit of business.

 

[Tom]

Following the Tyreek Hill trade, former Packers' WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling is signing a three-year, $30 million deal worth up to $36 million with the Chiefs.

Deshaun Watson is facing a second grand jury, criminal charges on the table again.

A grand jury in another Texas county is meeting to decide if charges will be filed against Deshaun Watson, Tony Buzbee, the attorney for the complainant, confirmed on Thursday.

The grand jury is convening in Brazoria County, Texas, south of Houston. The latest proceedings are occurring nearly two weeks after a grand jury in Harris County, which includes Houston, didn't indict Watson on criminal charges related to sexual misconduct allegations against him. Harris County presented nine complaints against Watson to that grand jury.
