NFC Notes: Lions, Seahawks, Washington

Lions

Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown said he is coming into his rookie season with a chip on his shoulder already.

โ€œIโ€™m never going to forget the 15 receivers that went before me in the draft,โ€ St. Brown said via Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press. โ€œThatโ€™s kind of the chip that I have on my shoulder coming in, everything that I do. Whenever Iโ€™m thinking about anything, that just comes back to my mind and it just motivates me to do more.โ€

 
โ€œIโ€™m excited to work and Iโ€™m ready to take someoneโ€™s job.โ€

Washington

Eagles EDGE Ryan Kerrigan said goodbye to Washington via an Instagram post on Sunday.

โ€œIโ€™ll never be able to sum up what these past 10 years have meant to me in an Instagram post, but what I can say is that they have been some of the best of my life. I hope you had as much fun watching me as I did playing for you. Thank you, Washington, for everything.โ€

Kerrigan also said that heโ€™s not looking to get back at Washington for any reason, and he has an appreciation for the team.

โ€œNo, not at all. Iโ€™m not like, โ€˜Oh, Iโ€™ve got to get revenge.โ€™ Get revenge on Washington? The place has been so good to me. No, that wasnโ€™t a thought at all,โ€ Kerrigan told John Keim.

  • Former NFL coach Norv Turner visited his son, Washington OC Scott Turner and HC Ron Rivera extended him an open invitation to all of their practices: โ€œI really do value his opinion so I think itโ€™s cool to have him around to look at some things and be able to talk to him about whatโ€™s going on and what he thinks.โ€ (Nicki Jhabvala)
