NFL Highlights for July 3
Status quo around Brandon Aiyuk
NFL Media’s Mike Garafolo reports that the 49ers and Brandon Aiyuk are far from a deal despite positive discussions.
But, the reporter also says there is no immediate trade request. The receiver reportedly plans to report to training camp in a few weeks. If no deal is reached during the offseason, the 26-year-old receiver will play under the final year of his $14 million contract.
So we could be heading towards a Nick Bosa situation where the player got a big contract extension during his final rookie year.
Mahomes favorite for MVP title
According to the DraftKings.com rankings released this Tuesday, Patrick Mahomes (QB, Chiefs) is the favorite for the MVP trophy for the next regular season. Josh Allen (QB, Bills) et CJ Stroud (QB, Texans) are its main competitors.
The reigning MVP Lamar Jackson (QB, Ravens) is right behind. The first non-quarterback is Christian McCaffrey (RB, 49ers)best offensive player last season.
Tashaun Gipson suspended
Free from any contract, the safety Tashaun Gipson is suspended for the first six games of the 2024 season according to ESPN. The 33-year-old is believed to have violated league rules regarding the use of performance-enhancing drugs. This could make it difficult for him to secure a club for the 2024 season.
Gipson spent the last two years with the 49ers, and was a Pro Bowler in 2014 with the Browns.
Transactions
– Patriots extend Jahlani Tavai (LB) for three years and a minimum of $15 million ($21 million if he gets all the bonuses) according to Adam Schefter (ESPN). The former 2019 second-round draft pick has played every game for the Patriots in 2023. He has 110 tackles including 5 for loss, 1 sack, 2 forced fumbles, 2 interceptions and 5 pass deflections.
– The Vikings plan to bring back Cam Akers (RB) if he passes the physical, according to Charlie Walters of Twincities.com. The 2020 second-round draft pick is entering the final year of his rookie contract. He joined Minnesota in September in a trade with the Rams.
