Derrick Barnes Jersey his way around the facility. The veteran running back, who spent the past five years as a member of the , now has to simply focus on breathing in the Denver air, which he admits has been
Amani Oruwariye Jersey a tough road to this point."I'm struggling a little bit, I'm struggling a up here little bit with the altitude," Gordon said following Sunday's practice. "What I keep hearing is when we play other places, we won't even get tired, so I'm looking forward to that. Right now it's tough, trying to finish downfield, and things like that. It's dry out here, I'm trying to drink
AJ Parker Jersey water every second, lips are dry. That's the biggest adjustment, working all offseason and coming here and still feeling like you're still not in shape because of the altitude."Outside of the altitude, Gordon did note that he's fitting in pretty seamle sly to the Broncos system.Because he came up in the league in the AFC West and faced the Broncos twice a year, we do have a four-game sample size of what kind of production Gordon brings to the table in the high altitude. In his four career games played in
Alim McNeill Jersey Denver, Gordon has totaled 306 yards on 4.3 yards a carry to go along with 14 receptions, and an additional 104 yards receiving and one touchdown reception. If he's
D'Andre Swift Jersey able to even come close to those totals over a full season, the Broncos will be very happy in their $16 million offseason investment in Gordon, who will also be fighting for snaps in the backfield. Denver plays two of its first three regular-season contests at Empower Field at Mile High before heading on the road in Week 4 and Week 5, which does give Gordon even more time
Will Holden Jersey to catch his breath. Once he does that, he should be in line for a promising first season with the Broncos.
The last time the won a came during the 1994 season when Steve Young was their starting quarterback. Although the 49ers had a chance to end their 25-year Super Bowl drought this season, they came up just short in a 31-20 lo s to the .As a former 49ers player who happens to be in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Young is in a unique position: Not only does he understand what a quarterback might be going through on the field, but he understands what a quarterback could be going through mentally in
Isaiah Dunn Jersey a monstrous game like the Super Bowl.After taking a few days to digest the game, Young still seems befuddled by one decision the 49ers made in the Super Bowl and that was Kyle Shanahan's decision to not call a timeout near the end of the first half.For the most part, Shanahan coached a good game for the 49ers, but his decision not to take a timeout is one that has been questioned non-stop since the end of the game. From Young's point of view, the
Vinny Curry Jersey decision didn't make any sense, and that's because it made it seem like Shanahan didn't have any trust in his quarterback, . "I think Garoppolo and Kyle have to ," Young said, via the . "The thing before halftime doesn't make sense to me. If I was the quarterback, and you just let the clock drain away, what are you saying to me? That's just me."Even John Lynch wanted to see a timeout called. As you can see below, the 49ers general manager
Freeman McNeil Jersey was frantically calling for one just before halftime. John Lynch wanted the timeout Kevin Boilard (@247KevinBoilard) Shanahan by pointing out that he didn't want to give the ball back to . "You're not going to give the ball back to them no matter what in that situation," Shanahan said of the Chiefs offense. "The way (Mahomes) did that third-and-15 at the end of the game is how he does a two-minute drive. Felt extremely good with how we went. Not using the timeout there was a no-brainer."By
Isaiah Williams Jersey choosing not to take a timeout, Shanahan showed a lack of faith in his defense (that they couldn't stop Mahomes) and Garoppolo, who would have had nearly 1:40 to work with at the end of the half if the timeout had been called.On Young's end, he understands not wanting to give the ball back to Mahomes, but he still doesn't think that justified not using a timeout. Young also believes the decision was basically a slap in the face to Garoppolo. "I understand you want to drain a little bit of time so you don't have to give it back to Patrick Mahomes," Young said. "I get that, but how about some time for me? That tells me there's an ongoing relationship that needs to be developed, a trust maybe that needs to be worked on. Look, I
Ashtyn Davis Jersey always put myself on the field. How would I feel? And I would feel like, 'Hey, wait a second, put the ball in my hands.' So those two have to figure out how to continue to build off what they've done."The good news for the 49ers is that Young sees a quarterback in Garoppolo who will only get better."Jimmy doesn't know his ceiling," Young said. "Just keep playing and it works itself out over time. People say, 'I know his ceiling.' No, you don't, because Jimmy doesn't even know it, and Kyle doesn't either. You can think you know, but it needs to play out." Even if Garoppolo improves, there's no guarantee he'll ever play in another Super Bowl. Although Young would reach the postseason four more times after that 1994 Super Bowl win, he never made it back to the
Chuma Edoga Jersey game. If Shanahan and Garoppolo never make it back together, then not calling the timeout could be something that the 49ers coach will eventually regret down the road.
PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers have seen explosive return plays in recent years, but it's been longer than you'd think since they last found the endzone on special teams.The years of Ray-Ray McCloud brought
Breece Hall Jersey some electric special teams play, but it hasn't been since 2017, on a return from JuJu Smith-Schuster, that the Steelers took a kickoff to the house.The last time they scored on a punt return, not including a blocked punt? 2019 by Diontae Johnson.That could change this season.Steven Sims burst onto the scene in Week 5 against the Buffalo Bills and took two games, and four returns to prove he was the man for the job. How'd he do it? With an 89-yard burst, that nearly found its way to the endzone.Now, he's looking for more. The Steelers haven't slowed down their return game, averaging 25.6 yards per kick return since Simms hit the scene.
Zach Wilson Jersey And he's ready to find the endzone."I definitely feel it. Any week. I feel that way every week, every return that I'm capable of taking it back," Sims said. "We're close, we're so close. A trip up here, a little piece of a guy here, just grabbing me or getting
Sam Darnold Jersey off a block at the last second and slowing me down.It's right there, it's so close,"It's more than Sims, though. The Steelers special teams unit seems to have a bit more juice than in years past. With Miles Killebrew, Marcus Allen, Benny Snell Jr., Derek Watt and Miles Boykin all standing tall amongst those aces in the NFL, it just feels like this group is different."We're a great unit in the special team room," Sims said. "We can change the game in our room, without the offense and defense. As far as punt
Kyle Phillips Jersey block, everything we've got to do, kickoff, kickoff return, punt return, we can make plays in those areas to help the team win the game,
Kevin Mawae Jersey and Danny Smith knows that and he believes that and we believe that."Sims has a kick return touchdown under his belt already, taking one 91-yards to the endzone as a rookie in 2019 with the Washington Commanders. He knew he was gone when it was just him and the kicker.Scroll to Continue"Really, when I got through the lane, kind of like I got through it on the long kick return here. Once I got through, I feel like I'm gone," Sims said. "But at that point, it was literally just me and the kicker. So I was like, he's not catching me."He's ready for that sight again."We're going to pop one," Sims said. "It's coming."Make sure you for the latest news,

NFL contracts are known for having weird clauses within them. Some players have certain bonuses that require them to stay above (or below) a certain weight. Others offer playing-time incentives that protect teams in the event that a player gets injured.But the one that the Cardinals put in Kyler Murray's new contract may be among the strangest of them all.Murray agreed to a long-term extension with the Cardinals last week that will pay him . The deal makes him one of the NFL's highest-paid quarterbacks and puts to an end the drama that had surrounded Murray and
New York Jets Home Office the team during the offseason.Murray certainly did well for himself earning the nine-figure deal. That said, the Cardinals evidently pushed for an odd addendum to be included within it that e sentially guarantees Murray will work a little extra each week to prepare for the Cardinals' matchup.Here's a breakdown of Murray's "independent study" clause and how it became a part of his contract.MORE: The independent study addendum was something that the Cardinals and Murray agreed to include in the quarterback's $230.5 million contract. Officially, guarantees that Murray must "satisfy the off-field requirements" listed below:Player
Curtis Martin Jersey (Murray) shall complete at least four hours of Independent Study each week (excluding any bye week) during each Playing Season during the term of the Contract.The "Playing Season" referenced in the contract is a set period that runs from the first Monday after training camp through the end of the Cardinals' season. As for what constitutes independent study, the Cardinals defined that as a part of the addendum.'Independent Study' means Player (Murray)
Trevon Wesco Jersey studies the material provided to him by the Club (Cardinals) in order to prepare for the Club's next upcoming game, including without limitation any such material provided via an iPad or other electronic device. Time spent in mandatory meetings shall not constitute Independent Study.The contract also specifies that Murray would not receive independent study credit if he "does not personally study the provided material in good faith" or if he is "engaged in any other activity that may distract his attention while such material is being displayed or played."So, e sentially, the addendum effectively ensures that Murray will be asked to spend extra a few hours each week studying coach-prepared materials designed to help him face Arizona's opponents. If not, Murray would be ruled "in default" of that portion of the contract. Simple enough.That said, there is still one big question remaining about this clause.Why
Sam Darnold Jersey did the Cardinals feel the need to include it within Murray's contract?MORE: According to , the independent study addendum was something that the Cardinals wanted in the contract. Why? Because of the commitment both sides are making as a part of this long-term deal.It was important to the team making a commitment at that level, thus it was important to Murray.So, the Cardinals wanted to be sure that Murray was committed to them, and as Rapoport later clarified, they wanted that commitment in writing.Additionally, Rapoport stated that Murray already
Al Toon Jersey does the four hours of game studying on his own; Murray's camp didn't view it as a particularly big deal as a result.Kyler Murray does 4 hours of game studying on his own, anyway. And similar to the team wanting him around for the offseason as the face of the franchise, AZ wanted a commitment in writing while going to a certain place money-wise. Thus, the clause Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) Still, it seems odd that the Cardinals would include a clause like this in a contract. As Andrew Brandt pointed out on Twitter, it seems strange that the team is willing to
Braxton Berrios Jersey pay him as a top-five NFL quarterback yet is worried about him putting in four extra hours of his time per week.Never seen this in 30 years of looking at NFL contracts.Strange theyll give him $46 million a year (on extension years) yet worry about 4 hours a week of studying. Andrew Brandt (@AndrewBrandt) Indeed, this incentive feels rather juvenile one that someone would dangle to a kid to get them to complete their homework. Certainly, it doesn't seem like something that belongs in a $230.5 million quarterback contract.But evidently, Arizona wanted to protect themselves if Murray decides to slack off. We'll see if that ever becomes an i sue during that five-year term on his deal.

Mike Tomlin likes a clear masthead when looking at his backfield with the . Running back by committee? No, that's not really his style.

The Steelers do, however, have
Terron Armstead Jersey a rather large stable of backs heading into 2020 as , , , Trey Edmonds, and fourth-rounder all make up the backfield along with Conner.Tomlin did highlight that featured runners do need to be supplemented with players that can do similar things around him to create a more

"We're excited about him getting back to health and displaying

"He's capable of being a James-type of guy if James is unavailable."
