Patriots/NFL 2023 Pre-Season - DA drops gun charges against Patriots CB Jack Jones

[Donnie Shulzhoffer]

From his wikipedia page:

Of Mexican heritage, Corral was born on January 31, 1999, in Ventura, California.[1] He later attended Oaks Christian School in Westlake Village, California, before transferring to Long Beach Polytechnic High School in Long Beach, California.[2] He later stated he switched schools due to Oaks Christian being for "rich kids" that were "never going to have to work a day in their lives", as well as a physical altercation with a son of Wayne Gretzky that finalized his decision to transfer.[3]

lmao

On Wiki? Then it must be true

Already heard my favorite Matt Corral story - he got in a fight with one of Wayne Gretzky’s kids in high school that led to his transferring ….’

Didn’t expect that but I would love to see the video - I’m assuming Gretzky kid went down before being hit

 

[KrejciMVP]

if he wins his first 2 starts wonder if he will be villainized like Zappe

You are doing this Zappe thing like you did with the pitch clock back in April.

It is done.

He tried to hide behind Marty McSorely's kid.

Pats have signed former Eagles 1st round flop Jalen Reagor to their practice squad.

Sometimes, talented players sometimes need a change of scenary/scheme.

...and sometimes, they're just not very good football players.

Probably worth a roll of the dice.

Roll of the dice? Don’t let bloom hear you say that

I'm sorry did they announce he was the starter?

 

[Johnnyduke]

i would feel better if brady ran out in pads opening night with no offseason preparation than i do with any of these scrubs

I just don't think acquiring Corral or any backup QB is anything to be excited or upset about. They went 2-0 in games Zappe started and probably should won the first game he had to play at Green Bay. The backup QB did his job. If they end up relying on Corral for a big chunk of the season, the season is very likely lost. It's simply about Mac Jones and the talent around him. If they determine after this year that Mac isn't the guy I doubt Corral will be next in line.

How rare is this?

Florida takes penalty against Utah for two players wearing same number

College football is back, but the University of Florida didn’t seem all that ready for a punt situation.

I wouldn't rule it out entirely.

I mean, heading into the 2022 draft, Corral had some 1st/2nd round projections.

How pathetic the Pats have become so quickly when we are getting excited over waiver fodder. Good grief hurry up Bruins season.

If anything it should just put more pressure on Mac. Not sure if that's a good or bad thing though.

It is comforting to know that there are other NFL teams that cannot pick good WR's in the first round.
Nothing but good things can happen with this signing, we need a break, hope he works out.

I'm not sure I'd call myself "excited" over picking up Corral and/or Reagor.

More like... mildly intrigued.

 

[CDJ]

I’m intrigued by Corral, idrc about Reagor tbh

Corral would of went in the 1st or 2nd had he not had his injury. I watched that game. I give the kid credit. While other players sat out in fear of getting hurt, he wanted to be on the field with his team and win the sugar bowl together. It takes heart to do that. He cared more about that than at the time the draft. Now some will say it was stupid because he ended up getting hurt, but I saw a leader. He came out in crutches and watched his team the entire rest of the game. Anyone who followed college football at the time knows how good he was.

He is definitely an intriguing kid.

big change from the GOAT years

 

[PB37]

I'm curious to see how the three rookies on D perform as the year goes on: Gonzalez, White, Mapu. Some legit talent there.

Reiff to the IR, TE Pharaoh Brown promoted

Figured this was going to happen. Not sure why Bill signed him for a good chunk of change.

But alas

They had already kicked him inside so clearly they didn’t think he could play tackle anymore after getting a look at him

Chandler Jones back to the Pats for a 7th please lol

I've been watching football for 50 years. I don't think I've ever seen this happen.
