The NFL informed teams today that the 2023 salary cap will be a record $224.8 million per club, sources tell me and @RapSheet.
That’s up from $208.2 million in 2022, $182.5M in 2021 (COVID adjustment), 198.2M in 2020 and $188.2M in 2019.

Would be crazy not to tag Daron Payne at these prices. https://t.co/5E5s5kyVPW

Kam Curl’s father is right. Nothing less than $80M for the star safety. Gotta keep Curl around long term.
7th round gem, we have finally seemed to solve the safety problem with him and Darrick Forrest. https://t.co/UYRd8QFmmo

It’s pretty wild that “linebacker” is now at a higher tender than “defensive end”. And the scare quotes are very intentional.
It’s clear that both designations are being dominated by who’s really getting paid at the top there, edge rushers.
— Nick Korte (@nickkorte) January 30, 2023
It’s good news for off ball linebackers and interior defensive linemen, who will be more likely to avoid getting tagged.
However, said it before and I’ll say again, the CBA really needs to be amended to end this antiquity.

Mentioned here: Ron Rivera not expected at the Senior Bowl, I’m told. Same deal as last year. He attended other events pre-draft, of course.
Martin Mayhew, Marty Hurney, and Eric Stokes among the Commanders’ contingent set for Mobile. https://t.co/IHSgZW7UvZ

.@ochocinco was on @ClubShayShay and was asked about some of his favorite receivers. On the shortlist: Washington’s @TheTerry_25 and @JahanDotson.

While the attorneys general in DC (two lawsuits) and Maryland (settlement) have concluded their respective investigations into the Washington Commanders, a spokesperson for Virginia AG Jason Miyares tells @FOS that the office’s probe remains ongoing.

The Commanders just announced the news we’ve all been waiting for: Major Tuddy will join Jonathan Allen, Terry McLaurin, Daron Payne, Jeremy Reaves and Tress Way at the Pro Bowl.

PLEASE explain to me why y’all have such a problem with Major Tuddy? You can’t even tell me WTF G-Wiz or the Philly Phanatic actually are. Get over your grown ass selves pic.twitter.com/8xs3HOUTNX

This thread is spot on. Too many people don’t understand this. Yes it looks bad when a pass rusher reads it and beats a TE, but it’s a big part of the play-action game and nobody notices when it works https://t.co/xPd5HJRfcb

#49ers QB Brock Purdy suffered a complete tear of the UCL in his throwing elbow and will undergo surgery, per sources.
Purdy is getting second opinions, but the initial hope is he can undergo a repair — not reconstruction (AKA Tommy John) — and will be ready for training camp. pic.twitter.com/dFGQGpPALw

The #Chargers are hiring former #Cowboys OC Kellen Moore to be their new OC, per @RapSheet. Didn’t take long to find a new gig. He’ll team up with Justin Herbert and Co.

DeMaco Ryans tells Broncos he is not interested. He was their third No. 1 choice.

The Broncos’ owners are getting a quick education regarding the fact that running an NFL team is a lot tougher than buying and selling a shitload of household goods on a razor-thin margin.

Here is a look at the regular season’s “Average Time to Throw vs. Average Receiver Separation.”
PIT, NYJ, and CAR have some of the longest times to throw, but the littlest amount of WR separation. What is going on in those offenses?#NFL #NFLTwitter pic.twitter.com/38wLD6biY0

ok but serious question isn’t it weird for a not-for-profit with a very specific and limited customer base to pay for a pricey and incredibly untargeted ad like the naming rights to arrowhead? pic.twitter.com/7dfHDlJzZ5
