Kuetsar Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 ESPN is reporting that the Colts won't try to get the signing bonus money back from Luck that they are entitled to, so for once a classy gesture from Irsay. If it was anyone but him, the face of the franchise, you know they would do it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirFozzie Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I found the interesting part to be that the settlement was "reached late last week".. does that mean the Colts knew all this week? (or does this mean like fri-sat) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirFozzie Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Update: they knew about it monday. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2019/08/26/fmia-andrew-luck-the-colts-and-the-retirement-that-rocked-nfls-world/?cid=fmiatw "There was a time in Monday’s meeting when options were suggested. One of them: Take his time healing the right way without hurrying, and go on IR with a return designation, meaning he could return for the last two months of the season if he got healthy. That seemed to make the most sense—he’d have nine weeks from now to see if the calf/ankle could be fixed, and the Colts would have been more than happy to take the risk of paying $21.25 million for Luck to try to play in 2019, with backup Jacoby Brissett taking some or all the snaps this season. But whatever alternatives got suggested, Luck, one of the smartest players in any sport, seemed immovable." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 While Torrey Smith might have killed Gottlieb on Saturday, Troy Aikman took the remains, put it in a blender and then shot the blender about 20 times last night 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite things about Troy Aikman That meme about him looking exactly like Jay-Z Him calling his agent and asking how much time he'd get if he beat up Skip Bayless after Skip wrote a column calling him gay. Anytime he talks about Michael Irvin. Troy Aikman is never happier than when he's talking about Michael Irvin, they should do a buddy cop movie. I just want to see them hanging out, because they seem to the best of friends despite having absolutely nothing in common. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 So the Colts brought to camp for a lookie Matt Cassell and Brandon Weeden. I mean Cassell I can almost understand but barely.

Infinit Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Larry is quite the space cadet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dewar Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Larry is a fucking idiot. As for Russell being signed, I would guess no. He was cut at the end of training camp last year, and nobody brought him in since. He is the same size as some CFL defensive ends, so Canada could be an option.

RIPPA Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 As per usual - we will wait till after the roster cuts before starting the Week 1 thread Meanwhile - apparently the Dolphins are saying that if the Texans want Laremy Tunsil they need to give up Jadeveon Clowney, a 1st round pick AND another high round draft pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 That is a new conspiracy theory to me, though. But... Huh? Tunsil is good, but if Houston is willing to give then that much... Wow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow PFT's theory is that trading Tunsil would be an insanely unpopular move within the Fins locker room so if they got that haul back they could be all LOOK AT WHAT WE GOT!!!
