Let’s just say Chad Johnson won’t be an unlockable character in a “Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater” game anytime soon. For reasons unknown, the former NFL wide receiver has been on a cigar-filled Instagram rampage recently. That’s good for his followers, because one of Johnson’s many posts in Atlanta on Friday featured the 39-year-old trying to skateboard with — you guessed it — a cigar in his mouth. And while his attempt starts out promising, it ultimately ends in hilarious fashion. Check this out: Wipeout! Yo... NESN.com

Many expected the Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back would eat his words once the reality check of the regular season rolled around. But that’s not happening.

He leads all backs in touchdowns, and ranks second in yards per game (99.3) behind Kansas City Chiefs rookie back Kareem Hunt (102.4).

Carr drove the Raiders down the field and hit tight end Jared Cook for what appeared to be a 29-yard touchdown with 18 seconds remaining. But while it initially was ruled a touchdown, the officials reviewed the play and marked Cook down at the 1-yard line. And since Cook was tackled in
Is Donald Trump Jealous Of NFL? Jags Owner Shad Khan Believes President Is
Shad Kahn suspects Donald Trump’s history with the NFL is driving his current war on the league. The Jacksonville Jaguars believes the U.S. President is “jealous” of NFL owners and holds a grudge against them due to his failed attempts to buy NFL teams, according to USA TODAY’s Jarrett Bell. Trump has continually attacked NFL owners for not forcing players to stand during the national anthem. “This is a very personal issue with him,” Kahn said Wednesday in New York City following the NFL owners’ meetings. “He’s been elected president, where maybe a great goal he had in life to own an NFL team is not very likely. So to make it tougher, or t... NESN.com
