doing this against the Chargers defense is certainly a choice

Justin Herbert

Im ok just hydroplanned into the wall

I really think we've acquired a monopoly on guys whose brains work like this at Wide Left

white boy summer? ❌ Im ok just hydroplanned into the wall fall? ✅

football has grown in Brazil for many reasons: Gisele Bündchen, Jair Bolsonaro, the COVID-19 pandemic. but the efforts of four media members I had lunch with in São Paulo are a key reason too, one that makes me hopeful about the state of media coverage both abroad and stateside:

the people are clamoring

When Alex told me that the NFL denied him a credential after we had booked the trip, I didn't panic at all because I knew he was going to write a killer story anyway Despite knowing that, I was floored at how fucking good it ended up being

Wide Left sent @katson.bsky.social to Brazil. It was a disaster www.wideleft.football/p/god-did-no...

The NFL denied my credential. American Airlines put me in purgatory. God Did Not Want Me to Go to Brazil. Wide Left sent me anyway. I got one hell of a story out of it:

HELLO EVERYBODY I have been in a singular niche as the spreadsheet man since 2021. major media, NFL teams, P4 programs, agencies, and rabid fans have all supported me making a bunch of lists. this year, I am moving the spreadsheets off of Patreon. welcome to FOOTBALL SHEETS:

Jedd Fisch says that LB Jacob Manu is "getting close" to returning from his torn ACL, but Washington will then need to evaluate whether Manu will take a redshirt season. the Arizona transfer has 2 years to play 1 but could play 4 games + postseason and keep his redshirt

"I believe that our program isn't going to be one where people come and go. We're working really hard to make that the case," Jedd Fisch says. clear that Washington is making it an emphasis to keep their young core of talent intact for the long term

Raiden Vines-Bright will be Washington's starting slot receiver on Saturday against Colorado State, per Jedd Fisch. the true freshman from Tempe, AZ is listed as an OR with Penn State transfer Omari Evans but will get the first crack at the job

Jedd Fisch says that scouts from 17 NFL teams have been at Washington's practices over the last 8 days

Jedd Fisch says that he believes that everybody not previously ruled out for the season (e.g. Russell Davis II) will be available for Washington's opener against Colorado State Saturday. "does not mean everyone will play", he notes

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH LFG JP

final Chargers roster projection following LA's preseason finale vs San Francisco:

I love all of our staff at Wide Left but James might seriously be worth the subscription price by himself. been thinking about doing something like this for a while but nobody was better equipped to handle this than him

Richardson is the latest in a long line of results-oriented draft picks taken without a long-term plan that owner/GM/HC bought into. he also had the 4th-worst completion % in a season since 2000 and took himself out of a game last year. where does that leave us going forward?

the difference between here and Twitter is so crazy because you guys don't even know about the Justin Herbert-Madison Beer rumors

please go look at what this is in response to. what the hell is wrong with this place lmfao

theoretically this should be Tim Boyle's last appearance on the NFL transaction wire but you would've said that about the previous 7 times he got cut so I look forward to him signing with the Rams later

what if we just cancel the season

still not really sure how they'd put everyone on the field in the correct positions if he comes back but fuck it sure

I’ll also accept Los Angeles Charger Micah Parsons

it's truly so incredible that Jerry Jones managed to turn one of the best players in the league wanting to sign a long-term extension at a discount into a trade request. we'll never see a talent like this again

Washington has an 🇦🇺 (Luke Dunne) & an 🇺🇸 (Trevor Allen) punter on the roster after a tumultuous offseason. what can the Huskies expect? Petrilli wouldn't rule out a repeat of 2018, when 🇦🇺 Joel Whitford and 🇺🇸 Race Porter both punted regularly for the Huskies, when I spoke with him on Tuesday:

"For me personally, I want our players to feel comfortable playing in front of anybody that wants to watch. We all have a responsibility to promote our players," Washington head coach Jedd Fisch says when asked about the decision to keep practices open as other programs have begun to close them

I laughed like 5 times reading this. I think #DUUUVAL will enjoy this real breakdown (and shout out @acosta32jp.bsky.social) #TealSky #Jaguars

I got to put on my homer hat to tell you this: Trevor Lawrence is actually good

Trevor Lawrence is all over the map in industry quarterback rankings. I interviewed two Jaguars experts to find out why the former generational prospect has yet to hit his ceiling:

hypothetically if someone that you knew was going to São Paulo for this game what would you suggest they do during the rest of the week which includes this hypothetical person's birthday it's me. I'm going to Brazil. what should I do

Chargers have now signed Hines, per Adam Schefter. Najee Harris and Raheim Sanders haven't been practicing the last few days, so LA was down to 4 healthy bodies in the room. with Kimani Vidal working with the 1s and Hines' history as a returner, this seems most dire for Hassan Haskins imo

Tre Harris has now signed his rookie deal after agreeing to terms with the Chargers this afternoon

kinda crazy to see scramblers as something non-honorable (something Derrik did not even say) and immediately conflate non scrambling with white qbs as though some of the best qbs rn arent white creators and some of the best pure pocket guys aren't black, a real what do YOU mean you people situation

not a ton of options on the veteran free agent market for the Chargers to replace Mike Williams. - Amari Cooper (31) - Keenan Allen (33) - Nelson Agholor (32) - ...Allen Robinson? (32)

Mike Williams was one of my favorite Chargers of the late Philip Rivers era. bummed this is the way he's going out. Tre Harris holdout should end soon (🤞) with a few other second rounders signing and then LA needs him to hit the ground running

Chargers WR Mike Williams is retiring, per Adam Schefter and @rapsheet.bsky.social on Twitter

social team is trying to get Derrik killed this isn't what the bit is at all 😭😭😭

as someone who talks to derrik everyday: definitely not a racist lol “honorable” QB play is just a longtime background bit making jokes about guys who mostly live off hanging in the pocket and firing down the field into risky spots as far as passing goes (just gunslingers)

big week for Ryan Nelson, who got signed by the Chargers today but was also in the Human Puppy Bowl the other day

big week for Ryan Nelson, who got signed by the Chargers today but was also in the Human Puppy Bowl the other day

this is truly one of the best pieces of sportswriting I've ever read

even if you wanna set everything else about this guy aside (why?) I just have a hard time believing he's going to have anything interesting to say because when he actually does talk about sports he's not good at it

Starting a new series over at SB Nation about breakout players for every NFL team. Starting with the NFC West, which is loaded with fun defenders ready to shine and an underrated draft pick www.sbnation.com/nfl/2025/7/1...

bad news, but still in possession of both eyes from the sounds of it. hope he heals up quickly and suits up Week 1

been gone for a little while. had to collect my thoughts. happy 4th
