Bengals claim Tony Brown off waivers.

I didn't even know he was waived by GB. I thought he was hurt? Something happened behind the scenes there, I bet. He was getting dime and nickel snaps at one point IIRC.

Joe Philbin will get the hire as the new OLine coach for the Cowboys, joining coach Stubby on his staff.

[George Cumby]

Good ol’ Philbin. That’s a great hire.

Muhammad Wilkerson's comeback not going well.

Former New York Jets and Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Muhammad Wilkerson was charged with DWI, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia after an early morning arrest Monday, a New Jersey State Police spokesman confirmed on Wednesday.

Wilkerson, 30, who last played in 2018, was stopped for a traffic violation on Interstate 80 westbound in Paterson at 2:45 a.m., police said. He was accompanied by a 28-year male passenger, Jihad Ballard, who was charged with possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Police did not release the results of a blood-alcohol test. A source said Wilkerson was not given a standardized field sobriety test.

Both men were released pending a court date.

Wilkerson plans to work out with a personal trainer in the Los Angeles area as he prepares for a comeback.

This marked Wilkerson's second DWI arrest in less than a year. His Rolls Royce was stopped last June 1 in New York and his blood-alcohol level was allegedly 0.09, slightly above the legal limit.

As my father said, nothing good ever happens after midnight.

If it makes the papers.

One potential play-maker hitting the market: #Packers TE Jimmy Graham is not expected back in Green Bay, sources say. The move with the 33-year old former free agent signing is noteable, though not a surprise for anyone involved.

Sources say Jimmy took extra time to leave GB. He drove slow and took a circuitous route out of town. Disgruntled fans threw objects at his car, but they all struck either low or behind.

Witnesses claim Jimmy became agitated as several children on tricycles passed him by.

The Badgers hired Alvis Whitted as their new WR coach. I approve.

I was recently listening to ESPN 1070 and they were discussing who was gracious with giving autographs and who was not. Somehow JIMMY came up, and apparely he is the worst person to try to deal with when giving autographs. Rodgers used to be good but not so much anymore. But Jimmy was described as being in another level.

I know he hates giving interviews too. Social anxiety is a thing with a lot of people.

Banjo and Brett Hundley both resigned with the Cards.

Wow. Them be playoff-caliber moves.

All kidding aside, I don't see how either move even shores up a backup spot or special teams.

Falcons sign Justin McCray.
