It’s kind of disturbing the string of chokes and outbursts he’s had. I remember a helmet toss here or there, but now that they’re all being stitched together, it seems like a troubling pattern. There was also that incident with someone being assaulted off the field a couple years ago, but I think he was cleared of that.

This has nothing to do with their offense looking good tonight, but I think the Bears will be better than a lot of people expect this year. They won’t be a contender but I think they’ll clean up the stupid penalties they’d routinely commit under Nagy, play to everyone’s strength and end the season around 7-8 wins with the arrow pointing up.

Laviska Shenault traded to the Panthers.

I really liked him coming out of Colorado and saw a Panthers insider said he thinks they're hoping to use him like Deebo.

Him, CMC, and DJ could be a lot of fun

He's not good. He was getting cut. Poor route runner, drops the ball, can't even be a returner, and didn't produce anything for all the opportunities he was given.

On paper he is a mismatch in many positions but it never transferred to the field. Maybe a change of scenery will do good for him but I doubt he makes it much longer in the NFL.

Like I said, it seems like he's going to used as a gadget player more than a receiver. Should take some of the HB workload off of McCaffrey and he's pretty good on screens and such.

He was already in that role and it was a failure. Then last year he got more time as an outside WR because of injuries and that was worse. He's not a RB or a WR. He had some good plays his rookie season but has been getting worse each season since then. The Jags gave him every chance this year to show something to make the team and he was terrible from all reports in practice and looked bad in the games.

I would bet you could find a better backup easily but maybe it will finally come together for him on another team.

The Jaguars have had such a stellar support system and coaching staff in place the last couple years so it’s definitely not possible they botched it at all with him.

Even still, for a team that lacks playmakers on Offense, it’s still not a good sign they pretty much moved him for nothing.

I’d keep them expectations very low for him.
