Superstar tight end Jimmy Graham has been dealt from the New Orleans Saints to the Seattle Seahawks in a move that made the rich even richer. The New York Jets are being praised by fans and analysts alike for the moves that the club has made Parris Campbell Jersey , most notably bringing shutdown cornerback Darrelle Revis back home. Pro football's existing punchline the Cleveland Browns are, depending on what reports you believe, being trolled by players in contract negotiations. What a show.No team in the NFL has made more news since the new league year opened up on March 10th than the Philadelphia Eagles, and there is one man to thank for that. Philadelphia head coach Chip Kelly was handed full control of the franchise following the 2014 regular season, and he is, seemingly on a daily basis, actively working to turn the roster into one that reflects what he wants to see on NFL Sundays. It is his vision that is admittedly lost on the majority of observers Bobby Okereke Jersey , which is why Kelly is being bashed on local sports talk radio and on national television broadcasts.Kelly is apparently going out of his way to show that he is the smartest person in the room as it pertains to running a NFL team. He is going against the grain and making roster transactions that are leaving some in the league downright baffled. It is possible that Kelly does, in fact, know what he is doing, and he could be on the verge of revolutionizing how executives build teams. Maybe, just maybe, Kelly has lost his mind, and he could find himself out of work and out of the NFL entirely if he fails to lead the Eagles to the first Super Bowl championship in the history of that franchise. OVERLAND PARK Khari Willis Jersey , Kan. (AP) — The Chiefs are investigating an incident in which star receiver Tyreek Hill was involved in a domestic battery episode in suburban Kansas City earlier this week.The team said in a statement to The Associated Press that it was aware of a police report filed Thursday by the Overland Park Police Department that lists Hill’s address and identifies a juvenile as the victim. Hill’s fiancee, Crystal Espinal, is identified among “others involved.”The couple has a 3-year-old son, Zev.Overland Park police Officer John Lacy said the case has been turned over to prosecutors for review. No charges have been filed against Hill, and Johnson County prosecutor’s spokeswoman Kristi Bergeron didn’t immediately return a phone message seeking comment.Chiefs spokesman Ted Crews said Friday the team has been in contact with local authorities and the NFL as it gathers more information but declined further comment.The 25-year-old Hill has a history of domestic violence.While starring at Oklahoma State in 2014, Hill allegedly punched and choked Espinal when she was pregnant with their son. He was kicked off the team and pleaded guilty to domestic assault and battery by strangulation, and received three years of probation in the case.The conviction was dismissed in August and expunged from his record after he finished probation.Hill transferred to West Alabama and was chosen by the Chiefs in the fifth round of the 2016 draft Josh Allen Jersey , a selection widely criticized given his history. The Chiefs said at the time they had vetted Hill and were comfortable with their decision, and they put safeguards that included counseling and other checks they hoped would keep Hill on the right path.“Tyreek has done a nice job staying on top of himself with that,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said late last month. “Do we communicate with him? Yes. We have things set up for him if there are issues, but he’s been phenomenal. Every team has that, but it gives you confidence in human beings that they can make a change when they put their mind to it and do things the right way.”It appeared to be working, too. Hill won over a skeptical fan base with his game-breaking ability and the way he interacted with them, often signing autographs for hours during training camp.The two-time All-Pro had also positioned himself for a massive payday.He had 87 catches for 1 Jawaan Taylor Jersey ,479 yards and 12 touchdowns last season, helping quarterback Patrick Mahomes win league MVP honors and the Chiefs win a third consecutive AFC West title. They advanced to the conference title game before losing in overtime the Super Bowl-champion Patriots.Hill is entering the final year of his rookie contract, and the Chiefs had been building their roster to create enough salary cap flexibility to sign him to a long-term deal. The largest contract given to a wide receiver is the $90 million, five-year deal that the Giants gave Odell Beckham Jr., who has since been traded to the Cleveland Browns.
