2. Speaking of NBA stars with NFL potential, JuJu Smith-Schuster finally met his idol (and hopeful future teammate).

3. This insane stat puts Tyrod Taylor in the company of Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers.

New Browns QB Tyrod Taylor has 51 touchdown passes and 16 interceptions since becoming a starter in 2015. Only two quarterbacks (min. 1,000 attempts) have a better TD-INT ratio in that span: Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers

4. Looks like Allen Robinson decided to pass on the free crab cakes for life offer.

The #Bears are expected to sign former #Jaguars WR Allen Robinson, sources say. A big-time pass-catcher off the market.
