Rams sign veteran OT amidst Alaric Jackson's health concerns
The Los Angeles Rams signed veteran OT DJ Humphries yesterday. Humphries was a first round selection by the Arizona Cardinals in 2025 and played for the Kansas City Chiefs last season. At first glance the Humphries signing seemed to be a depth-shoring move. That perspective seemed to shift on Friday with reports that blood clotting issues have resurfaced with starting left tackle Alaric Jackson—who signed a three-year, $57M deal with the Rams this offseason. Advertisement Jackson's bout with blood clots first surfaced during his sophomore season in 2022. He played in eight games with six starts before sitting out the remainder of the year. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, 'the belief is he'll play in 2025' and 'there are still questions'. While the starters along the offensive line seem stout for Los Angeles, Rob Havenstein and Jackson at tackles introduce layers of uncertainty with their injury history. The Rams will need to do all they can to keep Matthew Stafford upright during the final stage of his career, and missing a tackle out of the starting lineup could potentially derail their Super Bowl aspirations.

Will Johnson contract: Why the Arizona Cardinals haven't signed their 2nd-round pick yet
Will Johnson contract: Why the Arizona Cardinals haven't signed their 2nd-round pick yet Only two second-round draft picks have been signed. They have to negotiate how much of their contract is guaranteed. The Arizona Cardinals' lone insigned draft pick for this year is cornerback Will Johnson, their second-round selection in the 2025 NFL draft. They even have first-round defensive lineman Walter Nolen signed. But that is normal. Cards Wire's Howard Balzer noted this week that only two of the 32 second-round picks were signed. All but one first-round pick have been signed by their teams. Why is that? Well, first-round picks have fully guaranteed contracts. Second-round picks get guaranteed salaries, but that is negotiable. Some get three guaranteed years. Some get two guaranteed years. Some get two fully guaranteed and a partially guaranteed. Johnson was the 47th pick in the draft, so if we look at last year's No. 47 pick, New York Giants safety Tyler Nubin, we can expect Johnson to get two fully guaranteed years and a partial guarantee on a third. Nubin's first two years had fully guaranteed salaries. In his third year, he is scheduled to get $1.49 million in salary. Of that, $1.21 million is guaranteed. Then, of course, are the contract details as to when the signing bonus is paid, what language is included fro behavioral stipulations and such and more. But we can expect something similar for Johnson. When will it happen? The Cardinal probably won't set the standard, as it was a pick in the middle of the second round. One picks ahead of Johnson start lining up and getting signed or if it happens from the bottom of the round up, that is where we will see Johnson getting his contract signed.

Kellen Moore explains how a rookie QB ended Saints minicamp early
Kellen Moore explains how a rookie QB ended Saints minicamp early Players went into the summer break on a high note Many teams cut their mandatory minicamp practice schedule short if the coaches like what they've seen early on, but Kellen Moore took a creative approach with the New Orleans Saints this week. After a spirited offense-versus-defense basketball game before Thursday's final practice session, Moore gave the team an opportunity to get the day off. And a rookie quarterback stepped up and seized the moment. "Today Hunter Dekkers made a three pointer in the team meeting, and so we chose to go to Five O Fore Golf and spend some time as a team. So, it's been awesome," Moore told reporters afterwards. When asked why Dekkers was the pick to make the key shot, he said that was up to Juwan Johnson, the offense team captain in the basketball game. He continued, "The offense won, and we doubled the ante, and gave Hunter a shot. If he made it practice was over. So he made it, he had confidence, he let it go. He's got a little high school basketball in his background, so no one was surprised." Dekkers was a multi-sport athlete at West Sioux High School in Iowa, competing in not just football and basketball but also baseball and track, too. So it clearly didn't take long for him to earn some respect from vets like Johnson for his athletic ability. But what if he had missed? Would Moore have sent the team out to the practice field, or was the plan all along to take the day off for another group activity after they played paintball last week? "There might've been a few more shot opportunities, hopefully. Really glad it was the first guy that made it. Didn't have to go down that road," Moore grinned. Moments like these matter. Giving the undrafted rookie a chance to shine in the spotlight and have the whole squad cheering for him matters. Getting the offense and defense to compete against each other away from the practice field matters. Showing the young guys and new free agents around town (and supporting one of their teammates' businesses; Alvin Kamara is an investor in Five O Fore) matters. That's how you build culture and camaraderie, and it's clearly a priority for Moore. Hopefully it makes a difference in the fall.
