Aidan Hutchinson had successful surgery to repair a fractured tibia and fibula in his left leg Sunday night, and even though the team said there was no recovery timetable in a statement, coach Dan Campbell casually pegged it at 4-6 months during his Monday afternoon press conference.
I feel bad that I have to hold back a chuckle when Campbell says things like this. I don't think they hate him, but you can tell when certain players are more frustrating than others to the coaching staff.
I suspect you're right. If the issue was attitude, he'd be gone. I suspect Houston works his tail off but somehow is unable to internalize the teaching. Perhaps it will click on like a light switch at some point. I'm guessing that's what the coaches are hoping.
And almost as if they were prepared for something like this, they have about 30 million in cap space so if the right player is out there they can make that move.
I thought I read somewhere that realistically speaking, Crosby and Garrett are both essentially too expensive full stops, but not sure either of those guys are being moved anyway. We can definitely stomach some other good options though.
Garrett cap hit is 20 but Cleveland won’t give him up. Crosby is 30 on the cap so he’s out of range unless LV eats cash. Reddick signed with rosenhaus this morning so he’s a more likely option.
Carlos has published his prelude to his screed on election day condemning Holmes and predicting a lost SB chance.
He's so predictable.
Los sits in the "Joe Falls Curmudeon Chair."
“And Houston’s still here” after naming the other nine guys in the D line room, is sooooo telling.
They hate this guy and are just hoping to trade him for anything

Cleveland’s fire sale has started with Amari Cooper being traded. The answer is always "no" until it is "yes."
