Alright Gentlemen, here's some varied players news: Some good; some bad, but all noteworthy.
It was known by Philly area DWF's earlier this season that the Philadelphia Eagles would likely receive a 4th round compensation pick if they cut linebacker L.J. Fortt and Andrew Sendejo before week 10. Fortt was cut after week 4. Sendejo was cut today (after week 9), despite ranking among the top 40 percentile of NFL safeties by virulently anti-white Pro Football Focus. Logic would dictate that Sendejo will be picked up fairly soon? Perhaps by cutting him, Philly can resign him and still get their additional 4th rounder, once he clears waivers? Nonetheless, they will no doubt waste that 4th rounder on some upsider anyway!
Recently "retired" Paul Worrilow is finally back in NFL, signed by the injury decimated (at linebacker) New York Jets. Worrilow is not that old (29), so he could use this to re-jump start his NFL career, perhaps? More than likely, unfortunately, this might be just a chance to collect 2 additional (final) months of fat NFL paychecks before he turns 30 next spring.
Not reported here at CF, I think, but Jeff Heath left last night's game with a knee injury. Good news, is it doesn't seem to be too serious. Actually needed 12 stitches to seal a laceration near the knee he suffered while making touchdown-saving tackle on Dallas' kickoff unit.
Steelers also signed outside linebacker Robert Spillane from their practice squad today, who none other than Aunt Chrissie from NBC really hyped up during a summer pre-season game. This is in addition to the return of Anthony Chickillo, who's career seemed to be in serious peril due to a domestic violence arrest. Media reports were Chickillo's "girlfriend" was the violent one that night, but any time a white player (particularly a backup at a Caste position) is arrested, he's in deep trouble. Seems A.C. has probably dodged a career ending bullet, for now.
Up north, A.J. Oulette got his second start at running back for the Toronto Argos last Saturday, but did not fare as well as the prior week -- 25 yards on limited chances. Had to leave the game early due to some afflete skull cracking him. A.J. finished the season with 114 yards (5.0 YPC). Nice start, considering he joined the team well after mid-season due to his stint with Cleveland this pre-season. Hopefully he'll follow in the footsteps of Gil Fenerty, who used the CFL to garner some NFL acclaim in the early 1990's. At the very least, he could follow the trail of Josh Ranek, who posted several 1,000 yard seasons in Ottawa beginning around 2004?
Speaking of the CFL, I knew Hamilton featured former Cornell star Luke Tasker, who has had three 1,000 yard seasons. Could be 4 or 5, sans injuries? Anyhow, I was surprised (shocked) to see the Ti-Cat's talented rookie receiver named Jaelon Jacklin is white! I check out the box scores and league leaders from time to time. Would have never occurred to me Jaelon Jacklin could be white. He played at Western Illinois, so I bet a lot of the college posters here at CF knew about him. By the way, Jacklin, like Oulette, left Saturday's game due to a hit to the head by some violent upsider.
Carolina has just signed WR Donte Moncrief. This could, perhaps, lead the Panthers to cut Chris Hogan from the IR? If they did that, it would make Hogan a free agent and he could re-join the Patriots. Not sure, but it seemed like Chris' injury was not a true "season ender", but merely a way to get rid of him last month?
Whites at Caste positions recently added to practice squads: DE/LB Porter Gustin signed by vile Cleveland GM Jim Calhoun-Dorsey, who might be realizing field all black teams can be awful, vis-a-vis chemistry issues. Cincinnati has signed LB Brady Sheldon, who actually played 2 games for the odious Black Jack Del Rio's 2017 Train-wreck Raiders......San Francisco 49ers, just worked out former Stanford LB Joey Alfieri yesterday. Hopefully he'll be added to the practice squad, at the very least?
