After spending the past few days reading articles, blogs, scrolling through social media, watching videos I have created a list of some of the most eye-catching, noteworthy media about the NFL.
What now for Antonio Brown? Answering the biggest questions around his release
This was a great article about what lead up to Antonio Brown’s release from the New England Patriots. It gives a lot of information of what happened, what could happen next for his future and why it happened. This article was written by Dan Graziano and Jeremy Fowler for ESPN.
Graziano: How NFL players are taking control, and what the league could do next
This article put a great perspective on how NFL players are starting to gain more power in the league when it comes to their contracts. “It’s a growing trend of NFL players taking more control of their own contract situations than they traditionally have thought they could. And if you think the league isn’t alarmed about it, you’re wrong.” This article was written by Dan Graziano. I came across this article on Twitter.

This tweet is important because it deals with a controversy that has been going on for a while in the NFL if Colin Kaepernick will be picked up by a team. With all the QB injuries, many wonder if he will get a call from an NFL team. This is a tweet by The Daily Show.

This tweet is Colin Cowherd talking about how he believes Tom Brady is the greatest team athlete of all-time. It is noteworthy because this has been a debate going on for a while and he does a great job of using facts to back up his argument. This video was from his show but then tweeted by The Herd.
Andrew Luck Sets Tone for Players Affected by Mental Health
This is a podcast by Conor Orr and Jenny Vrentas that deals with how mental health does affect NFL players. Andrew Luck retired very early in his career because of it. “Not only do we have Andrew Luck talking about the cycle of pain and rehabilitation that he went through, and that’s something that informed his decision to retire at the age of 29.” This is very prevalent so it gives a good insight into this topic. I found this podcast on SI.com
