Your “Return Of The King” Monday Evening Open Thread

NFL News:

• Zeke is some pissed at Jerry Jones, after he found out his team’s owner made a “Zeke Who?” crack when asked about the starting RBs against the Rams last Saturday.
  • He did clarify his remarks later in the game, but with negotiations stalled, it’s just more kindling on an already smouldering fire of employee discontent.

• Josh Gordon returned to the Patriots today.
  • He can practice with the team, but is not eligible to play against Carolina this Thursday, as stated in his terms of reinstatement.

• Antonio Brown finally showed up to Raiders camp, again.
  • He is still expected to file another grievance, so he can continue to wear his old helmet.
  • There were rumours of the Raiders using the PUP list to sit him the whole season, which would remove the guarantees from his contract, if he chose to sit out regular season games.
