"We think he's the best wide receiver in the league and should be compensated as such. We think he's one of the best non-quarterbacks in the league, and think he should be compensated as such."
Vikings want to pay Justin Jefferson, not trade him. ICYMI:

Peter and I have been discussing this for more than a year so he didn't catch me off guard.
Just to echo emotions expressed by readers and colleagues, what he has done as a writer and story teller all these years has been an unmatched, remarkable treasure.
His final column today is fitting and PK didn't shy away from the things he loves, his reasons on the timing and things that appropriately concern him.
A better person, there is not. Happy for him, his wife Ann and his girls. ❤️✍️🏈⚾️
Football Morning in America is up! And this one’s about the luckiest man on Earth. It’s been real. 🏈📝❤️

Dean was more than a colleague, he was part of our family. He served the @ArkRazorbacks for more than 50 years and now has earned his rest. He was a true legend who will forever be missed. We love you, Deano!
Dean Weber was a dear, dear friend we lost today. We are so heartbroken.

Congrats to my guy @CamHeyward. I am so proud of the man you are. What you do on the field is your job. What you do off the field represents the person you are. You are a true leader on the team and in the community. I am honored to be your coach.

It’s the unofficial Alex Smith Super Bowl. Smith was drafted No. 1 overall by the 49ers, traded to the Chiefs, and spent time mentoring Patrick Mahomes before moving back to the Bay Area. And Smith thinks the 49ers’ defense is in trouble.

Former Giants’ HC Tom Coughlin on the Raiders hiring Antonio Pierce: “I could not be prouder of Antonio Pierce being named head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders. I’m excited for him, his family, and the franchise. This is the team he grew up watching, and his belief in himself and in the players is why he is there. He is a great student of the game, a quick learner with a great attitude, and he is eager to get to work. The 2024 season just got a lot more interesting with him at the helm. Go get ‘em AP!”

Here was part of Schneider’s opening statement, where he recalled getting hired by Seattle in 2010 and thinking he’d then hire the head coach — only to find out Carroll was already the choice.
Schneider got a bit choked up talking about their partnership the last 14 years.
