A ton of grey area here but a terrible idea. The location makes zero sense given the extreme distance from the city and Forsyth's history in general. The potential fanbase lives in places other than Cumming and Alpharetta.

Lions retain a key part of their coaching staff

[Tom Pelissero @TomPelissero]

#Lions OC Ben Johnson informed the #Seahawks and #Commanders that he’s staying in Detroit, per sources.

Johnson is still only 37 and will be a hot head coaching candidate again next year. But first, he wants to take another shot at bringing a Lombardi Trophy to Detroit.

[Tom Pelissero @TomPelissero]

The #Steelers are expected to hire former #Falcons coach Arthur Smith as their offensive coordinator, per sources.

Smith had a top run game as #Titans OC before heading to Atlanta three years ago. Now he’ll be coaching Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren and company in Pittsburgh.

[Tom Pelissero @TomPelissero]

Former #Titans coach Mike Vrabel is at the #Falcons' facility today to interview for the head coaching job, per source.

So, Vrabel and Ejiro Evero with Atlanta today. Jim Harbaugh was, and still is, tentatively set for a second meeting Thursday, along with Bobby Slowik.

Looks like for the third year in a row the 76ers will lose in the 2nd round and fall short of the Eastern Conference Finals smh does Doc Rivers return to Philly next year?

[Ian Rapoport @RapSheet]

Prior to reaching his decision, Calais Campbell had a 40-minute phone call with owner Arthur Blank and the two discussed leadership, charitable efforts, and how Campbell thrives in the community. That non-football call helped seal it.

[Field Yates @FieldYates]

The Chiefs have converted $12M of QB Patrick Mahomes’ 2023 roster bonus into a signing bonus, creating $9.6M in cap space, per source.

More flexibility for the champs throughout free agency.

The NBA is suspending Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant for eight games without pay for conduct detrimental to the league, sources tell ESPN.

[Ian Rapoport @RapSheet]

From @GMFB: The #Falcons are expected to sign former #Commanders QB Taylor Heinicke, as a Georgia native heads home.

[Chantz @Chantzreports]

Welcome back home to the 🅰️‼️

[Ian Rapoport @RapSheet]

The #Falcons are signing former #Commanders QB Taylor Heinicke, per me and @MikeGarafolo. With plenty of starting experience, Atlanta adds a veteran to their QB room.

[Ian Rapoport @RapSheet]

It's a 3-year, $21.5M deal with $11M guaranteed for the #Falcons and Kaden Elliss.

[Jeremy Fowler @JFowlerESPN]

Bates comes in at $16.005 per year ($64.020M over four years), now agreed to. After playing on franchise tag in Cincinnati, Bates finds new home.

[Chantz @Chantzreports]

[Jeremy Fowler @JFowlerESPN]

Jessie Bates is expected to sign with the Atlanta #Falcons, per source. Not done yet but that's where it's trending.

[Ian Rapoport @RapSheet]

The #Ravens have officially franchised tagged QB Lamar Jackson, giving him the non-exclusive tag.

[Chantz @Chantzreports]

Lets goooo! Hope this happens and if so @RyanMorik let me borrow your old Thrashers jersey for the first game (Please don’t be the stadium all the way in Alpharetta tho 🥴)
