What you need to know:

A quarter of the entire Browns salary cap goes to Deshaun Watson and his full insured money contract

One of the most recurring topics in the NFL offseason is the salary cap. And this topic is already in the middle of controversy due to the problem that arose with Trevor Lawrence’s contract.

Basically, the Jaguars quarterback received a big contract – the highest paid along with Joe Burrow – although perhaps without having sufficient merits on the grid for those amounts of money.

This contract can destabilize the NFL, specifically with the QB’s, because the vast majority who sign contract extensions after the case of trevor lawrence, They will want exorbitant amounts of money.

We explain quarterback contracts in the NFL

There are 32 teams, but One of the advantages that franchises have is that they have strong contracts for the QB’s -actually for all players- are handed over after four years as rookies.

That is, in the first four or three years, quarterbacks have not-so-high-paying contracts to level out the salary cap. After this period of time, they can now negotiate much larger amounts.

Obviously, players as important and decisive as Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson can ask for impressive amounts of money to improve their contracts.

Although, there are also cases like that of Tom Brady, who during his time with the Patriots, sacrificed certain amounts of money to improve the squad and that money was invested in hiring better players to surround it. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

Buuuut, the NFL evolves and with cases like Trevor Lawrence’s, every time they ask for and pay more dollars to quarterbacks and it greatly complicates the issue of the salary cap.

The percentage of the salary cap that NFL players occupy

For the 2024 NFL season, the salary cap set was $255.4 million and This amount is determined by the league’s earnings from television rights, in addition to other contracts..

So, based on this amount of just over 255 dollar melons, we will check the current contracts of each starting quarterback for the 2024 campaign.

And based on this, we will define the percentage that each QB occupies in the salary cap of each team, simply to size the problem that the owners have in forming a team of 54 -or even more- players with a limited amount of money.

When we see these percentages, it is understandable that the owners seek to make two different salary caps, one for quarterbacks and one for the rest of the team.

LeBron James Set to Make History with Third Olympic Appearance

Published

By


He competed in his first Olympics at age 19. He returned twice in his 20s. Now, just months shy of his 40th birthday, he’s about to get another taste.

LeBron James has nothing left to prove. If he lines up with the Americans once again, it’s simply because he wants to.

James is set to become the first U.S. men’s basketball player to compete in the Olympics in three decades.

The United States camp is in motion in Nevada, the starting point where they are ultimately looking for a fifth gold medal in a row.

“I’m still playing at a high level,” said James, who has two gold medals and a bronze to his name. “I still enjoy playing basketball and I have a great relationship with Team USA. It was important for me to join the guys this summer.”

James can notably reconnect with two of his former coaches, Erik Spoelstra and Tyronn Lue. He won an NBA title with each of them at the helm.

“It’s amazing how intense he is in practice,” U.S. coach Steve Kerr said. “I asked Ty and ‘Spo’ if that’s normal, and they said he’s like that every drill, every day.” READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

James won bronze in 2004 in Athens and also in 2006 at the World Championship (now the World Cup) in Japan.

Since then, the Americans have always won gold when he has donned their jersey, with a record of 36-0.

“Our only goal is to win gold,” James said.

The Americans will face Canada in a pre-season match on Wednesday.

  • Carlos Alcaraz (ATP 3) has to take a detour against Ugo Humbert (ATP 16), but is in the quarterfinals after a 6:3, 6:4, 1:6, 7:5.
  • Jannik Sinner (ATP 1) leaves Ben Shelton (ATP 14) no chance.
  • On the outdoor courts at Wimbledon, some matches have to be interrupted again due to the rain.

Playful and with fast legs: Carlos Alcaraz thrilled the crowd on Centre Court when he reached the quarter-finals at Wimbledon – but then found himself in danger at times. The 21-year-old defending champion was the more complete professional in the almost three-hour duel with the aggressive Frenchman Ugo Humbert and won 6:3, 6:4, 1:6, 7:5.

A loss of tension in the third set cost Alcaraz an even quicker win, but Humbert then played well and sensed his chance of a surprise. After that, however, the Spaniard improved again and made it to the quarter-finals. There he will face Tommy Paul (USA) or Roberto Bautista Agut (ESP).

The world number one Jannik Sinner stopped the winning streak of American tennis pro Ben Shelton at Wimbledon. The 22-year-old Italian won in the round of 16 with 6:2, 6:4, 7:6 (11:9). In the fight for a place in the round of the best four, Sinner will face former US Open winner Daniil Medvedev from Russia or Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov.
