Do the Giants hopes all hinge on Daniel Jones? NJ Advance Media's Matt Lombardo joins me to discuss the outlook for the 2020 season under new head coach Joe Judge, and don't miss Dan Schneier's's list of the greatest Giants ever in our Franchise Five series.
Patrick Mahomes, who is the youngest player to ever win both NFL MVP and Super Bowl MVP, has in an inordinate amount of leverage in contract negotiations. He earned MVP honors in 2018 after having one of the league's most prolific seasons for a passer as a first-year starter after essentially being redshirted while a rookie in 2017. He became the only quarterback besides Peyton Manning to ever throw for at least 50 touchdowns and 5,000 or more yards in the same season. If Mahomes is willing to fully exploit his leverage, he could become the first NFL player to sign a $200 million contract. Joel Corry breaks down what the historic contract could look like.
It's not often that an NFL receiver will publicly call out his quarterback for something, but that's exactly what Michael Thomas did to Drew Brees on Wednesday. The Saints receiver clearly wasn't happy after seeing an interview that Brees did with Yahoo Finance. During the interview, the Saints quarterback was asked what his thoughts were on the subject of players potentially kneeling again during the national anthem for the 2020 season. Brees then made it very clear that he's against that form of protest because he views it as disrespectful to the American flag. Find out what else Brees said and Thomas' response here.
The thought of Cam Newton on the Patriots is definitely intriguing and given the current QB situation in New England, it makes a lot of sense. According to reports, the two sides spoke shortly after Newton became a free agent. Is there mutual interest? John Breech explains.
