AFC Notes: Colts, Jaguars, Titans

Colts

  • Colts rookie K Rodrigo Blankenship tweeted that he met veteran K Adam Vinatieri during his first day kicking in Indianapolis. There remains speculation over whether Vinatieri will return as a kicker for the Colts this season with Blankenship and K Chase McLaughlin already on the roster.
  • The NFL and NFLPA are discussing a 2021 salary cap floor of $175 million, which is down from the $198.2 million this year. It’s possible that the figure could be pushed higher, depending on the revenue losses incurred by the league from the 2020 season.

  • The Titans also continue to entertain the idea of signing free agent DE Jadeveon Clowney, who still remains on the market and has had several different teams show interest in him.
