Former NFL linebacker Odell Thurman, who currently is on yet another suspension, has been arrested in Georgia for felony assault.

Thurman is being held in a Georgia jail while awaiting an extradition hearing.

On May 27, Thurman allegedly punched a man in the face at an Ohio waterpark, breaking his jaw.

Chris Long, the second overall pick in the NFL draft, reached agreement with the St. Louis Rams on Saturday night.

The financial terms of the five-year deal, with the option for a sixth, were not available. The Rams report to training camp at Concordia University in Mequon, Wis., on Thursday.

The Rams anticipate the 279-pound Long starting at right end to beef up an anemic pass rush.

Long's signing means the top three picks have agreed to contracts before training camp. The Dolphins signed first overall pick Jake Long, an offensive tackle from Michigan, before the draft and quarterback Matt Ryan has signed with the Falcons.

The Rams have signed half of their eight picks.

Long is the son of Hall of Fame defensive end Howie Long.

ASHBURN, Va. (AP) -- Washington Redskins defensive end Phillip Daniels will miss the season after tearing a left knee ligament Sunday during the first practice of training camp.

Daniels, a starter, was hurt on the initial play of 7-on-7 offense vs. defense drills.

The Redskins lost another defensive end, reserve Alex Buzbee, to a season-ending injury during their afternoon practice. Buzbee, who went to Georgetown, ruptured his Achilles' tendon.

Cornerback Fred Smoot sprained his ankle during the second practice, but he's expected to only miss a week or less.

2nd and 6th round pick voor Taylor vind ik een een beetje veel.

The face of the Bears can smile now, because Chicago is about to make Brian Urlacher one happy middle linebacker.

According to sources, Urlacher and the Bears have come to terms on a revised contract, which includes a one-year extension, thus ending their offseason contract squabble.

Urlacher, 30, had four years and approximately $25.5 million remaining on his contract. Under the terms of the upgraded deal, Urlacher will receive a $6 million signing bonus along with a $1 million bump in salary each of the next four years. The sides also have agreed to extend the pact into 2012, at a salary of $7.5 million. Urlacher can earn an additional $500,000 in a workout bonus in 2012.

That's a total of roughly $43.5 million over the next five years, with $18 million in new money for the six-time Pro Bowler and four-time All Pro.

Peter King schreef vanmorgen in zijn column al uitgebreid over de mislukte three-way-deal tussen de Giants, Saints en Dolphins. Nu dus wel gelukt tussen de Saints en de Giants. Maakt de matchup in London weer een stukje leuker. Shockey-Gates

quote:

Ravens franchise player Terrell Suggs has yet to sign his one-year franchise tender. According to Adam Schefter of NFL Network, Suggs won’t sign it until after the Ravens conclude the preseason on August 28.

Suggs loses no money, other than the training camp per diem. He’ll still make $8.5 million for the 2008 season if he signs the tender in time for the start of the regular season. And since the deadline for signing franchise players to long-term deals expired last month, the only inducement the Ravens could offer would be a guarantee that they won’t use the tag on him again in 2009 if he meets certain performance triggers.

The risk he’s taking by not signing is that the Ravens could revoke the franchise tag, and owe him nothing. The chances of that happening in this case are slim.

Antonio Gates ran and made cuts on his surgically repaired foot in front of a trainer Monday, but Chargers coach Norv Turner says Gates is a candidate to begin the regular season on PUP.
