The future is now

He did allright for himself.

[Panoptes]

He sucked.

The bar is low.

Says the Trumpeter.

He had himself a career. I give him that. Not Reggie White, but he did allright.

That's all I said.

Fluellen has already signed with the Lions 9 times.

10 coming up?

I wonder if that is a team record? I can't think of anyone else who has signed so many contracts with us.

One place you don't want to be a wide receiver is in prison. Yikes

Oh no... they much prefer the tight ends in prison.

Colts sign Jon Bostic

The Colts continued to add pieces to their linebacking corps on Thursday.

The team announced that they signed Jon Bostic to their 90-man roster. They signed Barkevious Mingo, Sean Spence, Jabaal Sheard and John Simon as free agents earlier in the offseason.

Unlike those other players, Bostic did not play at all last season. A foot injury kept him off the field for the Lions, who were the third team to employ Bostic since the start of the 2015 season.

He opened that year with the Bears, who drafted Bostic in the second round of the 2013 draft, and was traded to the Patriots in September 2015. He played 11 games for New England and then was traded to the Lions last year.

Bouncing from spot to spot as Bostic illustrates that things haven’t panned out as the Bears hoped when they used a second day pick on him, but there are worse places for a linebacker to try to jump start his career than with a team overhauling the look of their position group.

Former Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Mike Thomas, who spent three and a half seasons in Jacksonville, was arrested on aggravated assault, cruelty to children and battery charges on Sunday, the Florida Times Union reports. This according to the Sandy Springs Police Department.

Thomas was also charged with obstruction of a law enforcement officer and possession of a firearm or knife during the commission of a felony.

Jacksonville selected Thomas in the fourth round of the 2008 NFL Draft.

Thomas played six seasons in the NFL, but only appeared in 61 games in his career. He caught 171 receptions for 1,768 yards as a member of the Jaguars.

He was traded to the Detroit Lions in the middle of the 2012 season. Thomas also played for the Houston Texans and Arizona Cardinals before moving on to the Canadian Football League.
