Dolphins lineman Bayron Matos airlifted to hospital after suffering undisclosed injury, is in stable condition
Miami Dolphins offensive lineman Bayron Matos was airlifted by helicopter after suffering an undisclosed training camp injury Wednesday, according to the Miami Herald. The Herald reported that Matos is in stable condition but that the Dolphins declined to say anything else about the 6-foot-7, 334-pound lineman's injury. Matos' injury appeared to occur during an accidental collision with a teammate late in practice, per the Herald, which also reported that Matos remained on the field, where he was attended to by Dolphins medical staff and surrounded by teammates, for at least 10 minutes before his hospital trip. Matos didn't play a snap for the Dolphins last season, although he did see the field during the 2024 preseason. The former USF football walk-on is still relatively new to the sport. He was born in the Dominican Republic, where he played baseball and basketball. He moved to the United States when he was in high school and eventually played three years of Division I college basketball — the first two at New Mexico and the third at USF. He gave football a try at USF, initially lining up at defensive end before ultimately switching to the other side of the ball. Matos played 22 total snaps for the Bulls during the 2022 season, according to Pro Football Focus, which has him down for 11 special teams snaps and 11 defensive snaps that year. Flash forward to January 2024, and Matos was one of 16 NFL hopefuls who received an opportunity to showcase his talents via the league's International Player Pathway in 2024. The program provides international athletes a chance to work out in front of NFL scouts at IMG Academy before the draft and then be eligible to fill a 17th practice squad spot for any of the league's 32 teams. Matos went undrafted last year, yet the Dolphins signed him. After training camp, they brought him back for their practice squad.

Lamar Jackson declines to comment on the arbitration case that stemmed in part from his free agency
OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) — Lamar Jackson wasn't at all interested in discussing the arbitration case that's helped cause so much upheaval within the NFL Players Association. In January, arbitrator Christopher Droney ruled there wasn't sufficient evidence of collusion by owners in contract negotiations with quarterbacks after the Cleveland Browns gave QB Deshaun Watson a record $230 million fully guaranteed contract back in 2022. The union is appealing. Jackson's free agency a couple of years ago was a big part of that case. The Ravens gave him the non-exclusive franchise tag, meaning he had a chance to negotiate with other teams, but he ultimately signed a five-year deal with Baltimore. The 'Pablo Torre Finds Out' podcast first published the arbitrator's decision. When asked about the case Wednesday after practice, Jackson changed the subject. 'I'm focused on football right now. I'm not worried about that right now," Jackson said. "That happened. It is what it is. I'm focused on this right now.' The revelation that the NFLPA and the league had a confidentiality agreement to keep the arbitrator's ruling quiet has led to turmoil within the union. Lloyd Howell resigned as executive director of the NFLPA. Jackson wouldn't comment on what's happening within the NFLPA either, although it's obviously a significant topic around the league. 'Yeah, it's been kind of a mess. We've been meeting about it the past couple days, long meetings. That's also something that's been hanging over my head, too,' said tackle Zach Tom, player rep for the Green Bay Packers. 'I think it's an unfortunate situation. I'm really not sure how much I can say. I'll just leave it at that.' Watson received his deal in 2022, a year before Jackson had a limited chance to test the market. 'While the NFL Management Council encouraged the 32 member clubs of the NFL to reduce guarantees in future contracts with players at the March 2022 annual meeting of the club owners, the clubs did not join in such a collusive agreement and did not act in accordance with one as to the three quarterbacks named (Jackson, Russell Wilson and Kyler Murray) in the initial arbitration demand or to other veteran players,' the arbitrator's decision said. In the two seasons since, Jackson has finished first and second in the MVP vote, and the question now is whether he and the Ravens can agree on an extension beyond the three years left on his deal. Jackson certainly indicated that he's moved on from the 2023 negotiations, but that appears to have been a turning point after Watson's deal, and one that has continued to impact what quarterbacks can expect to be offered. 'I'm all for the players and I'm all for guys getting what they deserve," Las Vegas quarterback Geno Smith said. "Whenever a guy like Lamar — two-time MVP, perennial Pro Bowler — a lot of these other guys who are doing a great job, when there's a chance for them to really just get what they deserve, I think it's warranted. ... When you work hard and you earn something, you kind of just want your just due.' ___ AP Sports Writers Mark Anderson and Steve Megargee contributed to this report. ___ AP NFL:

Did the Steelers overpay T.J. Watt with $123 million extension
Yahoo Sports' Matt Harmon and Charles McDonald debate the 7-time Pro Bowl defensive ends recent contract extension with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Hear the full conversation on 'Football 301' - and subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you listen. View more Video Transcript T.J. Watt gets a big bag from the Pittsburgh Steelers. They gave T.J. Watt a 3-year contract extension worth $123 million. The deal, uh, includes $108 million in guaranteed money. He is now the highest paid non-quarterback in the league. Watt's coming off, like, kind of a weird end to last season. What was your, uh, did you, did this one catch you by surprise at all when you saw this job? Uh, I like, yes and no, kind of, because was T.J. Watt ever going to play anywhere else but Pittsburgh? Like, there's just no shot. He's like, he's going to die in yellow and black. It would just feel weird if he played anywhere else. So I'm not surprised that they, they extended him. I guess the amount of money was a little surprising because I thought they were gonna play hardball a little bit, like, hey, you're 31 years old. You know, usually, usually don't see NFL teams like pay for past performance like this. Because I, I mean, the chances that T.J. Watt plays at like Myles Garrett or Micah Parsons level for the next two years, like where he's guaranteed to be on the roster, seems kind of slim to me, but I also kind of don't hate the idea of like just keeping your franchise legends around as long as they're still productive players. I do think that that matters. It's got, you know, intangible value that's kind of hard to to to nail down, but it just it would just suck to not have T.J. Watt in his Steelers uniform after all that he's done for that franchise and how good he's been. And if you can kind of become one of like the name brand defenders for that franchise, like you're on track to be in the Hall of Fame. So obviously it's a guy you want to keep around, but for him to become like the highest paid non-quarterback and to get all that guaranteed money, I mean, great, that's great for T.J. I was just a little surprised that they ended up honing that up, but, um, you know, the Steelers operate a little bit differently. I, I just thought that they were going to say, hey, that stuff was in the past, and we got to pay you for what we think you're gonna be in the future. I don't think he's gonna be the best edge rusher in football, but he's still got the back for it, so what do I know? Close
