Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said in early January that quarterback Joe Flacco would have a market, and the prediction proved correct. The Ravens on Wednesday agreed in principle to trade Flacco to the Denver Broncos in exchange for a fourth-round pick, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported, via sources informed of the situation. Rapoport added that Flacco, who had three years remaining on his contract, will need to rework his deal for the Broncos. Baltimore and Denver are not allowed to publicly comment on the transaction until the NFL’s new calendar year begins on March 13, when the deal should be finalized. ESPN’s Adam Schefter was first to […]

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers released Vinny Curry on Tuesday after the eighth-year defensive end spent one season with the team. The move comes four weeks before the start of free agency and effectively makes Curry an unrestricted free agent. The Buccaneers signed Curry last March after he had been released by the defending-champion Philadelphia Eagles four days earlier. That move was part of an overhaul to a defensive line that also include the signings of Beau Allen and Mitch Unrein, the trade for Jason Pierre-Paul and the selection of Vita Vea in the first round of the 2018 draft. The […]

The Indianapolis Colts have signed Klayton Adams as assistant offensive line coach and Howard Mudd as senior offensive assistant. Additionally, Marcus Brady has been elevated from assistant quarterbacks coach to quarterbacks coach. Mudd has over 40 years of NFL experience as a coach (1974-2009, 2011-12) and player (1964-71). He re-joins Indianapolis after serving as the team’s offensive line coach for 12 seasons (1998-2009). Mudd was a member of the Colts’ Super Bowl XLI championship team. He previously served as offensive line coach for the Philadelphia Eagles (2011-12), Kansas City Chiefs (1989-92), Cleveland Browns (1983-88), Seattle Seahawks (1978-82, 1993-97), San Francisco 49ers […]

Tuesday evening, NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo reported that the Falcons had released veteran cornerback Robert Alford. According to the report, the former second-round pick out of Southeastern Louisiana was scheduled to make $8.5 million during the 2019 season. However, Atlanta could release him while only suffering a $1.2 million cap hit. His release leaves an open spot across from Desmond Trufant, which the team will likely try to fill during the 2019 NFL Draft. Alford was obviously disappointed by the move considering that he has been a key member of this defense since 2013. He posted a farewell message on his Twitter account, expressing his love […]

Closer Blake Treinen won his arbitration case against the Oakland A’s, per ESPN’s Jeff Passan. Treinen is now slated to make $6.4M for the 2019 season, with one more season of arbitration eligibility remaining in 2020. The A’s had submitted a bid of $5.6M. With this victory, Treinen earns a $4.25M raise on his 2018 salary, which Passan notes is a record jump for a second-time arbitration-eligible player. Of course, the Athletics were the beneficiaries of a significant jump in production from Treinen this season as well, as their closer recorded 11.2 K/9 en route to his first All-Star appearance, a sixth-place finish in […]
