[Kempski] Vic Fangio said Jayden Daniels is young "by his birth certificate, not by the tape."

[Rapoport] Notre Dame defensive coordinator Al Golden has emerged as a top candidate to be the #Bengals new DC, per me and @MikeGarafolo. Coach Zac Taylor has been waiting for the National Championship to end before moving forward. Now that it has, he can speak with Golden & work thru it.

[Breer] Lions coach Dan Campbell: "It's my fault. It's my fault."
