The Ravens have a new helmet… with a different logo
On Tuesday, the Ravens revealed a new helmet for the 2024 season on their social media.
Called “Purple Rising”, it will be associated with the Baltimore franchise’s color rush alternative jerseys.
With its purple hue and golden stripes, the helmet also features an alternative logo. It’s still a crow but from a different angle, without the famous “B”. According to the team, this helmet will only be worn once next season.
Kansas is trying to bring the Chiefs
It’s a strangeness. The city of Kansas City is not located in Kansas. It is located in Missouri. Or not. Because there is also a Kansas City in Kansas, right next to Kansas City in Missouri. The two homonymous towns form an agglomeration of just over 2 million inhabitants.
But officially, the Kansas City Chiefs are playing well in Missouri. Except that their lease in their current stadium ends in January 2031, and the pressure games to release money begin.
On the Kansas side, we obviously want to take advantage of it. According to ESPN, the state passed a plan to allow public funds to finance stadiums and training centers for the Chiefs and the Kansas City Royals, the NFL franchise’s neighboring baseball team.
The Chiefs’ lawyer has already welcomed the news. The practical side is that the two franchises would only have to cross the border to change state but keeping the same city name.
Arthur Blank honored by Arthur Blank
There was no shortage of jokes on social networks. On Tuesday, the Falcons announced the two winners of their Ring of Honor for the 2024 season. The lucky ones are quarterback Matt Ryan, but also Arthur Blank, the owner of the franchise, as reported by Ari Meirov. Which left room for a lot of humor and the feeling that Blank was going to honor himself since he is the boss… The ceremony will take place on September 22, during the match against the Chiefs.
Injuries
– Cole Strange (OG, Patriots) continues his rehabilitation. The Patriots guard was stretchered out in December 2023 for a torn tendon in his left knee. A serious injury that takes time to fully heal. Strange is expected to miss the first week but coach Jerod Mayo remains optimistic for a return during the season. (PFT)
Transactions
– Calais Campbell (DL, Dolphins) officially signed his contract with the Miami franchise. To make room, the Dolphins waived Matthew Sexton (WR, Dolphins). Campbell met with the press on Monday and explained that he is expected to play every position on the defensive line. (ProFootballTalk)
The main signatures of the day: Jake Bates (K, Lions, former UFL player), Willie Harvey Jr (LB, Cowboys, former UFL player), Daewood Davis (WR, Panthers, former UFL player), Ricky Person Jr (RB, Seahawks , former USFL player), Gareon Conley (CB, Cowboys), DeAndre Carter (WR, Bears)
The main cuts of the day: James Turner (K, Lions), Denzel Mims (WR, Steelers)
In short
– Details begin to emerge about domestic violence accusations againstIsaiah Buggs (DT, Chiefs). According to The Athletic, the player is accused of having forced the door of the apartment of the mother of his child with a tire iron, before dragging her down the stairs. At this time, the Chiefs do not wish to comment on the matter.
– Even if injuries disrupted his last seasons, ↑ David Bakhtiari (OT, Packers) doesn’t see himself retired yet. The player explained to Adam Schefter that he hopes to play for a few more years. Having undergone knee surgery in November, the 32-year-old is first taking the time to ensure that he can play fully again. Once assured of his health, he should finalize a contract with one of the teams that are already interested in his services. Bakhtiari suggested it should be neither the Packers nor the Jets. The former fired him in March, and the latter selected a tackle in the first round of the Draft.
– The Comeback Player of the Year will more reward players who return from injury or illness. This is the new criterion used by the Associated Press, which should therefore reward players who have had a good season after a bad year less. (AP)
