Chicago Bears: Recently acquired defensive lineman, Ray McDonald, is in trouble with the law…again…and again. McDonald, who had multiple encounters with law enforcement while with the 49ers last year, has been arrested in another instance of reported domestic violence. As a result, the Bears have cut the veteran.
Dallas Cowboys: The Cowboys are apparently offering tryouts to every recognizable running back left unclaimed. Felix Jones, Ben Tate, and Daniel Thomas were all given tryouts. This would suggest the claims that the Cowboys are confident in their current group of running backs are less than true. Dallas also reached an agreement on an extension with Orlando Scandrick.
- Chiefs’ take: Don’t rule out a trade situation. General manager John Dorsey has made a late player-for-player trade in both of his years in Kansas City. The Chiefs have a talented stable of running backs while the Cowboys have a lot of depth at defensive back. There was some speculation that the Cowboys might be looking to trade Scandrick, but that is unlikely with his new contract. However, that move may put another player on the block.
