Just added up Marshon Lattimore's press #coverageproductivity score and it's absurdly good. In position on 69 of 87 routes (nice), 5 PDs, 2 INTs, 15 receptions on 32 targets (46.88%), average completion depth of 9 yds, 208 total yards allowed. Too good! pic.twitter.com/gsu353REvo

Le’Veon Bell skipped almost entire walk-through on Saturday before the #Jaguars game, showing up five minutes before practice ended, per @EdBouchette. He also showed up "much later than expected" for the game itself.

Bell will be a free agent in the offseason, if not tagged.
