Sources: Colin Kaepernick's workout with Las Vegas Raiders 'positive,' but no deal imminent.
Maybe? Just maybe? The irony here at work?

Ex-Mod. Technically retired, they just won't let me quit.
Fitzmagic officially retired yesterday after playing for I think they said 28% of teams in the NFL?
Honestly forget TV, get this guy an NFL Insider job with the connections he must have.

He's already in talks with Amazon. I know Amazon airs some TNF games on Prime Video, so maybe he'll be doing that? Might actually tune into a Fitzmagic-commentated TNF game.
Also it looks like he retired as a Bill, it came across the Bills transaction wire yesterday.
We have a sale.

Not only is it Walmart, but the board chair of Starbucks (who also happens to be George Lucas's wife) also. Not sure if this is good or bad, but at least they won't have issues with guarantees on contracts anymore and Joe Ellis is gone. Hopefully they let the football people make the decisions and don't cheap out (given the companies they run, unlikely) so it doesn't end up like certain other franchises.
I didn't think Watson was going to end up being suspended, but it keeps getting worse for him. If Goodell hated him anywhere near as much as Manfred hates Bauer, he would be suspended for a long time by now.

Manfred hated all the players so he has a head start.
The Watson stuff was already awful, it keeps getting more and more awful. This is not a man who should represent a franchise or a sport. It bums me out that my team even made a push for him.

Goodell is the ultimate "Commissioner as a Mouthpiece for the Owners". HE'll do exactly like the majority of the owners want, take any heat for that decision and move on, actual circumstances be damned.
And given how the owners themselves have gotten into trouble for sexual advances on women in clear situations where the power was fully in their corner, I strongly doubt they'll be anywhere near as tough on Watson as they should be, as they don't want to set any precedent where they themselves might be beholden to what they put on Watson right now.
Add to that that this is a situation where the team that signed him just paid him the biggest contract, and teams don't want to see a precedent where players with contracts like that are taken out by the rules, it would not even surprise me if Watson came out of this with a relative slap on the wrist.
The only thing I can imagine is if the AFC North owners band together and try to force the Browns into a bad situation, out of competitive fear. Pretty funny if something we would be loathe to see in any other situation might be what gets the correct job done here.
It's all just bad politics, whichever way this ends up.
Donald got a big extension and now Kupp. Rams trying to keep that championship window open.

Won't happen.
It would open the door for the Browns to question the shitheads Pitt, Balt, and CIN have put on the team.

Chancellor? You mean Earl Thomas? And he wasn't a known shithead until he went off the rails then the Ravens released him.
Dean Spanos is being sued by his sister. The most surprising thing to me about this is their parents named them Dean and Dea.
Yeah. Tons of cap space, managed to split with Matt Ryan amicably, managed to last-second dodge the Watson bullet, and Ridder's apparently not looked bad in practice so far.
If Ridder ends up being a hit for them then with all that cap space yeah they could be rebuilt by next year already.
