NFL Notes: PED Investigation, Cowboys, Raiders & Steelers

PED Investigation

Cowboys

On Thursday, TMZ reported that Cowboys rookie RB Ezekiel Elliott visited a marijuana dispensary “Herban Legends” in Seattle just hours before the team’s preseason game against the Seahawks.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was asked about the report to which he responded: “[I]t’s not good. It’s just not good. It’s just not good.”

“Well, I think that in and of itself the reason we are talking about is in a way part of the learning process,” Jones said, via ESPN. “But it’s not good. It’s just not good. It’s just not good.”

Raiders

  • Jason Cole of B/R reports that part of the drama in Las Vegas with the Raiders is that Sheldon Adelson wants $750 million of public funding, while others believe a deal can get done with $650 million.

Steelers

  • Jeremy Fowler reports that Steelers LB Vince Williams‘ new contract includes a $1.5 M signing bonus to go along with base salaries of $2 million in 2017 and 2018.
