Eagles | Michael Vick adds muscle

Philadelphia Eagles QB Michael Vick said he added four pounds of pure muscle this offseason as he attempts to win the starting quarterback job. ‘I’ve been doing a lot of curls, a lot of bench press this offseason,’ Vick explained. ‘Just trying to put my body in the best position possible to withstand the hits. Everybody says I’m injury prone, so I’m trying to fight that.’

Browns | Chris Ogbonnaya to be used as FB?

Cleveland Browns offensive coordinator Norv Turner used RB Chris Ogbonnaya as a fullback in two-back sets during offseason workouts, but said the team is likely to keep a traditional fullback in the offense. When asked if Ogbonnaya, a tailback, can fill that role, Turner said, ‘He can do some of it.’ It appears FBs Owen Marecic and Brad Smelley will be fighting for one roster spot.

Patriots | Laurent Robinson leaves without deal

Free-agent WR Laurent Robinson (Jaguars) left his visit with the New England Patriots Tuesday, July 23, without a deal. However, he will be back in touch after his workout Wednesday, July 24, with the Detroit Lions.

Jaguars | Gus Bradley says QB competition is open

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Gus Bradley reiterated Tuesday, July 23, that the quarterback competition between QBs Blaine Gabbert and Chad Henne is ‘open’, and he would not reveal a timetable on when he will name a starter or who will even start the first preseason game.

Footballguys View: Henne looked better when he took over for Gabbert last year. It’s certainly a make or break year for Gabbert in 2013. The 2011 first-round pick has failed to play up to his draft stock and has reportedly been struggling this offseason.
