Patriots | Julian Edelman won’t be punished

New England Patriots WR Julian Edelman won’t be prosecuted after being cited by police for misdemeanor vandalism earlier this year, according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office. The owner of a car Edelman damaged informed the DA’s Office he doesn’t want Edelman charged, and he was fully compensated for the repairs.

Footballguys View: We’ll see if the league gets involved here or not now that the legal process is done. It’s doubtful they take any action but still something to keep in mind as we roll towards the regular season.

Chiefs | Ricky Seals-Jones officially signed

Updating a previous report, Kansas City Chiefs TE Ricky Seals-Jones’ contract was finalized Thursday, April 9, by the NFL.

Footballguys View: Seals-Jones has the basketball skill set to play ‘above the rim’ in the NFL, but he’s never played up to his potential. He’s a nice flier in dynasty formats just in case he ever gets a larger opportunity and on a team like the Chiefs that would be quite interesting.

NFL | Tua Tagovailoa works out on film

Alabama QB Tua Tagovailoa (hip) participated in an hour-long workout with 55 scripted passes and another 20 throws in a ‘dynamic drill setting’ at a private Alabama gym Thursday, April 9. Fewer than 10 people were in attendance, and all of the necessary safety guidelines in relation to COVID-19 were followed. Tagovailoa’s representatives said they will distribute the tape to all 32 NFL teams.

Footballguys View: Tagovailoa’s agent, the great Leigh Steinberg, said that health concerns about his client were seriously overblown. Things seem to be well on track for the young passer as he comes back from the hip surgery that ended his college career. We think the Dolphins will do whatever it takes to get him in the first round, and we fully believe that Tagovailoa is going to be a top-5 pick in the 2020 NFL draft.

NFL | Stephen Gostkowski not ready to retire

Unrestricted free-agent PK Stephen Gostkowski (Patriots) intends to play in 2020, provided there is a season. ‘I’m not ready to just hang it up,’ Gostkowski, 36, said. ‘I’m gonna try to play. It’s going to be tough to show teams what I can do right now or work out or do a physical, but I’m not too worried about it. I’m not concerned. I kind of take things day by day.’
