San Francisco

  • Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk mentions that there’s no buzz as the Media Center in San Francisco about the NFL hosting another Super Bowl in the Bay Area.
  • According to Florio, “itĀ feels like a one-and-done quid pro quo for building a new stadium.

Johnny Manziel

Browns QB Johnny Manziel‘s father said he is concerned for his son’s well-being after he hasĀ declined to be admitted to area rehabilitation facilities two times in the last week.

I truly believe if they can’t get him help, he won’t live to see his 24thĀ birthday,” said Paul Manziel, viaĀ Kate Hairopoulos of the Dallas Morning News.Ā .

It is worth mentioning thatĀ agent Erik Burkhardt elected to drop Manziel as his client on Friday.

Vinny Curry

  • Joel Corry reports that $18 million of the new five-year, $46.25 million contract signed by Eagles DE Vinny Curry is fully guaranteed.
  • Curry receives a $10 million signing bonus and $23 million in total guarantees. However, the last $5 million is guaranteed for injury only.
  • Curry will carry cap figures of $3M (2016), $11M (2017), $11.25M (2018), and $12M (2019-2020), according to Corry.

Giants

  • James Kratch of the Newark Star-Ledger believes that seventh-round rookie OL Bobby Hart could start at right tackle next season if the Giants elect to move on from OT Will Beatty.
  • Giants RG Geoff Schwartz revealed he played withĀ damaged nerves in his foot and ankle before suffering a broken ankle that landed him on the season-ending injured reserve in Week 12, per Kratch.
  • Of impending free agents DE Jason Pierre-Paul, CB Prince Amukamara, and WR RuebenĀ Randle, Kratch believes that the Giants will only re-sign Amakumara.

Jets

  • Alex Marvez reports the Jets have hired Colorado StateĀ special teams coach Jeff Hammerschmidt as an assistant special teams coach.

Seahawks

Former Seahawks RBĀ Michael Robinson said it’s “fair to assume” that Marshawn Lynch won’t be back in Seattle next year.

“I donā€™t think thatā€™s a slight to Marshawn, just after a while, a back gets older, still wants more money,” Robinson said during an interview with 950 Seattle. “A team has to be prepared to get younger at some point. And I think the injury didnā€™t help this year. The fact that he didnā€™t get the yards that he usually gets didnā€™t help this year. So weā€™ll see.”
