Now that the Steelers officially are trying to trade Antonio Brown (not to be confused with the six weeks during which they were unofficially trying to trade him)
Jason Spriggs Jersey , what happens next?By preventing Brown or his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, from talking to other teams, the Steelers control the process, making their compensation the first order of business, instead of the contractual adjustment that Brown clearly wants. Obviously
Kyler Fackrell Jersey , however, it’s going to take both to get the deal done.It’s also going to take a team that believes the benefits of Brown’s skills outweigh the potential risks. Risks that, for example, he will behave in a new city the same way he behaved in Pittsburgh. Risks that multiple off-field incidents, from the alleged furniture-throwing lawsuit to an alleged domestic altercation, may lead to a suspension. Risks that his recent social-media habits aren’t just an effort to get out of Pittsburgh but a Charlie Sheen-style #tigerblood meltdown that will continue once he’s in a new city.Regardless
Justin McCray Jersey , he’s now available for any team, if that team is also willing to pay him. Early speculation has centered on teams like the Jets, the 49ers, the Raiders, and the Packers. The Steelers surely are counting on multiple teams entering the bidding, in order to drive the price as high as it can be.However it plays out
Preston Smith Jersey , Brown will receive a $2.5 million roster bonus on March 17, which means it likely will play out by then (unless he agrees to delay the date of the payment). The most important question is whether the Steelers will take what they can get, or whether they have a minimum expectation below which they’ll simply keep him.If it gets to that, look for more tweets and videos from Brown that are aimed at forcing his way out of town, with the strategy continuing until he can claim that he is truly #winning. With nothing to play for, the Green Bay Packers and New York Jets are competing for pride and to put some good reps on tape. However
Ty Summers Jersey 2019 , the risk of injury is real, and quarterback Aaron Rodgers has already taken some big hits after just 16 minutes of game time.However, one of Rodgers’ blockers suffered an injury early on Sunday at MetLife Stadium. Left guard Lane Taylor injured his knee late in the first quarter of the game and is questionable to return to the game.While pass-blocking for Rodgers, Taylor and Bakhtiari were engaged with Jets’ defenders. Bakhtiari rolled up over Taylor’s leg, seemingly bending it back a bit at the knee. Taylor was announced as questionable to return.Then, early in the second quarter
Jace Sternberger Green Bay Packer , cornerback Jaire Alexander left the game with an injury of his own. The Packers announced that his issue was a groin injury and he is also questionable to come back in the game.The Packers currently trail the Jets 14-0 in the second quarter.UPDATE: Just after halftime, the Packers ruled Alexander out for the game.
