This week we discussed breaking NFL news! We specifically talked about Doug Baldwin’s retirement, the Ziggy Ansah signing, Dak Prescott contract negotiations, a potential Dez Bryant comeback, Kyler Murray deal, Bobby Wagner extension/no extension, XFL TV and streaming contract, and Seahawks, Steelers, and Eagles News.

We discussed Doug Baldwin’s apparent retirement from the NFL. Baldwin  joined the team as an undrafted rookie in 2011 and went on to become one of the best receivers in franchise history. He battled numerous injuries throughout the 2018 season, and had multiple surgeries this offseason. Baldwin, a difference-maker both on and off the field, didn’t just make the roster as an undrafted rookie in 2011, he went on to lead the Seahawks in receptions, receiving yards and receiving touchdowns that year. Over the course of eight seasons, Baldwin set the franchise record for touchdown catches in a season with 14 in 2015, and matched the team record for receptions in a season with 94 in 2016. A two-time Pro-Bowler, Baldwin’s 49 career receiving touchdowns are second only to Hall of Famer Steve Largent in franchise history, and his 493 catches and receiving 6,563 yards rank third behind Largent and Brian Blades (seahawks.com).

We also talked about other news for the Thirst and Goal (TAG) Teams, the Seahawks, Steelers, and Eagles. For example, we opined on Malcolm Jenkins, Blake Countess - Safety/CB, extension through 2020, claimed last week off waivers, was with Rams, drafted by Eagles in 2016. We updated the Steelers’ linebacker situation and gave a Ryan Shazier update. We also touched on the Ziggy Ansah signing in Seattle. 

We talked Game of Thrones Episode 4 - off with your head!
