Elgton Jenkins Jersey 2019 , the NFL’s franchise and transition tagging window opened up, allowing teams to use one tag to protect an impending free agent. Teams have until the official start of free agency (4:00 PM Eastern on Wednesday, March 13th) to make those decisions, but over the next few weeks we will likely learn about many players being tagged.For example, ESPN’s Adam Schefter started off the tag frenzy with a list of ten players who his sources suggested could be tagged before the deadline:That may not be an exhaustive list, however, and similarly some of those players are sure to not receive a tag. Still, it’s a good starting point when looking at who might be good tag candidates. In addition, click here for a good breakdown of the three different tag options that are available to teams.Over the next few weeks, APC will keep you updated on any tag-related news here, especially as anything relates to the Green Bay Packers. The Packers will not tag anyone this year, as there are no players who appear worthy of the high price tags that will come with them.Full list of Franchise Tagged playersDE Frank Clark (Seahawks)OLB Jadeveon Clowney (Texans)OLB Dee Ford (Chiefs)DT Grady Jarrett (Falcons)DE Demarcus Lawrence (Cowboys)Cowboys - DE DeMarcus Lawrence: TAGGED 3/4The Cowboys may decide to tag Lawrence for a second straight season
Elgton Jenkins Jersey Mens , in the hopes of finally signing him to a long-term contract. So far, however, they have not announced plans to do so. Lawrence, for his part, is saying that he will not sign the franchise tender this year if Dallas uses it, which would leave him with two options: agree to a long-term contract or sit out 2019 without pay, like Le’Veon Bell did in Pittsburgh last season.UPDATE: The Cowboys have reportedly decided to use the tag on Lawrence on March 4th after failing to come to a long-term agreement before or during the Combine. Texans - OLB Jadeveon Clowney: TAGGED 3/4According to John McClain on March 4th, the Texans are tagging Clowney. He is reportedly receiving the non-exclusive tag, so other teams could sign him to an offer sheet but would have to forfeit two first-round picks to the Texans if Houston elects not to match the offer.Seahawks - DE Frank Clark: TAGGED 3/4The updates are coming fast and furious today, as Albert Breer reports that the Seahawks will tag Clark.Chiefs - OLB Dee Ford: TAGGED 3/2The Chiefs have elected to tag Ford, per Adam Schefter.Steelers - RB Le’Veon Bell: No tag at allSteelers GM Kevin Colbert said in an interview on Wednesday (2/20) that the team absolutely will not use any tag on Bell and that he will be an unrestricted free agent when the new league year begins.Washington - EDGE Preston Smith: Tag is highly unlikelyFanSided’s Matt Verderame reports that Washington is “highly unlikely” to tag Smith, who had four sacks last season but eight the year before.

(AP) — When Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers gets ready for his 15th season, he’ll be working with a new coach and offensive coordinator.Plus, for the first time in his career, he’ll be directing a new offense.At least there will be a constant for the 35-year-old quarterback: the return of Luke Getsy as quarterbacks coach.A quality control coach in 2014 and 2015 and receivers coach in 2016 and 2017, Getsy spent last season as offensive coordinator and receivers coach at Mississippi State. His presence should ease the adjustments for the two-time MVP.“You’ve got to earn people’s trust, show them how much you care before they’re going to care about you and want to do well for you,” Getsy said on Monday as the team introduced the staff of new coach Matt LaFleur.“I think that phase is probably going to just happen quicker, naturally, being here for four years and creating a relationship. That part of it makes the transition much easier.“Installing a new offense and the new principles and all that stuff, we’ve got a lot of work to do. We’re going to rely on the relationship as far as the mutual trust, respect we have for each other
White Elgton Jenkins Jersey , but we’ve got a lot of work to do to get him to dive into this offense fully and being able to function at a high level.”LaFleur said that Getsy’s history with the team was another reason for his hiring.“Certainly, we’re going to find the best quarterback coach that’s out there,” LaFleur said. “Some things that I really did like about Luke was the fact that he played quarterback in college. I reached out not only to Aaron, but a couple other guys with him being in the building before, just to find out what they thought of him as a man and as a coach, and everybody gave him a thumbs-up.”Rodgers’ introduction into the new offense can’t start until the beginning of the offseason program on April 1.There’s a lot for the new coaching staff to do before the players return in six weeks, including preparation for the scouting combine, which begins later this month.LaFleur, Getsy and offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett all will have input in the quarterbacks room. Making sure they’re delivering the same message to Rodgers and fellow quarterbacks DeShone Kizer and Tim Boyle will be key.“We’ve got three quarterback guys that are going to be hitting him from all angles,” LaFleur said. “I know that I need to be in that room as much as I possibly can because I am going to be the play-caller. I think that relationship between the play-caller and the quarterback is absolutely critical. I don’t foresee ever missing a quarterback meeting.”Getsy arrives at the change with a unique perspective. He spent four seasons teaching former coach Mike McCarthy’s playbook. Now, he’s spent a few weeks learning LaFleur’s playbook. Getsy said terminology will be the biggest change for Rodgers.“It has the West Coast roots. The backbone is what he’s comfortable,” Getsy said. “The timing
Dexter Williams Green Bay Packers Jersey , the rhythm and all that stuff that he’s really, really good at, I think that’s all there.“The principles are there. It’s just speaking the language. That’ll be the biggest thing — for everybody — because there’s a lot of people in this building that have been here a while and have been ingrained in the previous terminology.”Notes: LaFleur finalized his staff on Monday by promoting Chris Gizzi to strength and conditioning coordinator and retaining Mark Lovat, Thadeus Jackson and Grant Thorne as assistants. Gizzi spent the past five seasons working under Lovat, who had been the coordinator since 2010. “That is a critical hire,” LaFleur said. “You talk about the guys that are going to talk to the team the most, it’s going to myself, it’s going to be the special teams coordinator and it’s going to be the strength coach. Those three positions are absolutely critical to our success moving forward.”
