The post has since been deleted, and on Thursday,the deal had fallen through. He did not provide areason.NFL FAs 2020:Apple, 24, has shown promise in his four NFL seasons with three interceptions and 33 pa ses defensed, but he has also struggled to play Daniel Descalso Jersey without getting flagged. He led the Saints with 11 called penalties in 2019 and 10 called penalties in 2018 after joining the Blank Jersey team in Week 8, .Apple was set to join a Raiders defense that had already signed formerBearslinebackerNick Kwiatkoski, formerRamslinebackerCory Littleton, formerCowboysdefensive tackleMaliek Collins Dillon Maples Jersey , former Cowboys safetyJeff Heathand formerBuccaneersdefensive endCarl Na sib.

ESPN aired an hourlong documentaryFriday night detailing NFL quarterback Alex Smith's career and the truly horrific nature of the leg fracture that has kept him off thefield for the past 18 months.Here are three takeaways from the E:60 production,"Project 11" (Smth wore No 11):His situation was worse than the outside world knewNov.18, 2018, will forever be ingrained in Smith's mind. In the Redskins' Week 11 game against the Texans,J.J. Watt and Kareem Jackson combined to sack Smith in the Chris Carpenter Jersey third quarter. The hit snapped Smith's leg in two and immediately ended his season. Twodays after that game, Washington coach Jay Gruden would besix to eight months after surgery.MORE: As we now know, Smith didn't come close to making a return within that time frame. The injury became far more gruesome after Smithnearly had to have his leg amputated because offlesh-eating bacteria. Doctors discovered Smithwas suffering from necrotizing Lane Thomas Jersey fasciitis.Smith's wife, Elizabeth, said in the documentary,"He'ssepticand, e sentially, dying. We're being inundated with medical language. Family, friends, everybody is on high emotion."Redskins team physician Dr. Robin West, who performed the surgery, told Smith's wife that if West herself were in Smith's situation, then she would make the decision to amputate her leg.Smith wasn' Ken Boyer Jersey ta star, but he wasbetter than many give him credit forSmith played under the expectations of a No. 1 overall draft pick, and it's fair to say he didn't live up to those expectations. But Smith was a quality player in the NFL. He was 19-5-1 as the 49ers' starter under Jim Harbaugh before being injured in Week 10 of the 2012 season. He couldn't get his job back fromCollin Kaepernick, who led San Franciscoto Super Bowl 47.He was traded to the Chiefs in 2013 and then ledthem to the playoffs in four of five seasons. Kansas Cityhad future MVP Patrick Mahomes in waiting, however, and few quarterbacks in the Tim McCarver Jersey league would be able to keep Mahomes on the bench. The Chiefs traded Smith to the Redskins in March 2018.Before being injured, heled the Redskins tofirst place in the NFC East with a 6-3 record. Washingtonfinished the 2018 season 7-9and then fired Gruden five Adolis Garcia Jersey games intothe 2019 season en route to finishing with second-worst record in the league (3-13).Smith's return to football remains doubtfulSmith said in the documentary that he hopes to playin the NFL again. Before"Project 11,"that seemed like a po sibility. He wouldn't be the first athlete to recover from a horrific leg injury, right? After getting an inside look at since the injury, it's easy to wonder if that' Dominic Leone Jersey seven po sible.His leg is barely recognizable as ahuman appendage. He receivedclearance from the U.S. secretary of defenseto consult with military doctors, and he met withwar veterans who suffered similar injuries in combat. Not to mention, Smith will be 36 on May 7. Only a handful of active NFL quarterbacks are 36 or older, and none of them have gone through a recovery that compares to Smith's.The resilience Smith has shown is incredible, but taking another NFL snap would rival the greatest comebacks in sports history.

Jimmy Garoppolo is currently the 49ers' starting quarterback, but the team's first preseason game will be all Chris Owings Jersey aboutTrey Lance. The 49ers plan to showcase the No. 3 overall pick from the 2021 NFL Draft and get him plenty of reps to kickstart his NFL career.Kyle Shanahan's plan is to play Garoppolo and the starting offense for one series, per . After that, it will be Lance's time to shine, as the 49ers coach confirmed he plans to play Lance "about 30 snaps" with the backup offense."I'm just excited to see him play like everyone else is," Shanahan said of Lance's debut. "It's fun to watch quarterbacks go out there for the first time. But I don't get nervous for the person or anything like that because I think it's fun to watch. I know no one is going to remember how his first preseason game is, but they will the next day. That's all right."Lance is similarly excited about his preseason Alex Avila Jersey debut, though he's mainly focusedon settling intohis new routine at the NFL level.MORE: "Oh, (I'm) super excited," Lance said. "Excited to go out and compete with this locker room of guys. And kind of at the same time, everything' Patrick Corbin Jersey s new. ... So, just being able to get used to everything everything from the hotel the night before the game to pregame warmup. Everything's going to be new, but at the same time, football is football."Lance is making Robbie Ray Jersey a big jump in competition from the FCS to the NFL and may need to shake off some rust on Saturday night.The North Dakota State product has played just one live game since the 2019 FCS season ended, as the FCS moved its 2020 season to the spring of 2021 as a result of the COVID pandemic.Lancestruggled a bit with his accuracy in his 2020 start.He went15-of-30 for 149 yards, two TDs and an interception during the gamebut added ran for 143 yards and two scores.During the preseason, he'll look toregain his sharper form from 2019,when completed 66.9 percent of his pa ses for 2,786 yards, 28 touchdowns and zero interceptions while running for 1,100 yards and 14 TD.No matter how he looks, Shanahan is just hoping Lance won't put too much pre sure on himself as he eases his way into NFL action."I think Trey is going to make the team so he doesn't have to go out there and freak out Madison Bumgarner Jersey about that,"Shanahan joked. "He knows a lot of eyes will be on him. Sometimes those guys want to go out there and make some plays and show everyone what to be excited about. I just always try to tell them, 'It's just like practice except they can hit you, so just calm down and just do your job like you try to do every day out here.' Because that's what quarterback is going to be every single day of your life until Kole Calhoun Jersey you're done playing."

Jets coachAdam Gase explained the reasoning behindTrumaine Johnson's benching for most of Monday's 23-3 lo s to the Browns, saying "it just hasn't worked out as well as we need it to" withthe cornerback."The good thing is we have a long ways to Aledmys Diaz Jersey go, Gase added.Johnson was benched after struggling in Week 1 against the Bills. Hewas replacedbyNate Hairston in Week 2, though heplayed a few snaps whenHairston got banged up with 3:27 remaining.I thought the guys did a good Preston Tucker Jersey job last week, Gase said ( ).

I dont care how much money you make."Coach Gase speaks Yuli Gurriel Jersey to the media before Wednesday's practice of Week 3. New York Jets (@nyjets) Johnson admitted he could have played better against the Bills, but understood his role in Week 2 was to"support my teammates."There were some plays that I usually make, Johnson said of his performance against the Bills (). You live and learn. Come back and fix them. And make sure you dont make them again. I let (up) some plays in that first game that I usually make. I just came back and corrected them.Gasewouldn't say whether Johnson Jose Altuve Jersey , an eight-year veteran,would start in Week 3, but he reiterated that Johnson will have to workhard in practice to earn his spot.I think you just go out and have a good week of practice, Gase said. Thats what we tell everybody. Every week is start over and we want everybody to practice the way that we need them to practice. Get ready for Yordan Alvarez Jersey this game. Whatever the inactives are or however we do the depth chart, it starts over every week.Johnson's best season came in 2015 when he was playing for the Rams. He recordedseven interceptions and 17 pa ses defensedwhile working Blank Jersey with defensive coordinatorGregg Williams. The Jets were hopeful Johnson would play well this seasonafter reuniting withWilliams.The Jets (0-2) will travel to New England to face the Patriots (2-0) on Sunday, with kickoff set for 1 p.m. ET.
