[MIA - More details on Tyreek Hill situation]() Source: Sun-Sentinel - Angie DiMichele Updating previous reports, Miami Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill tried to apologize and give an employee of the Bill Bird Marina $200 after he slapped them on the neck, according to a Miami-Dade Police report. An employee saw two men, one later identified as Hill, fishing for tarpon from the dock on Father's Day, the report said. He told police that is illegal. Two women in Hill's group joined them and got on a private docked fishing boat. The boat's captain had just returned from the marina's gas station and found them, the report said. He told them to get off. Hill 'claimed he was being disrespected,' the boat captain told police. An altercation ensued, and Hill charged after the employee. One of the men in Hill's group restrained Hill, who struggled to get out of the grip, the report said. The employee ran back into the office and locked the door. When he came out of the office, he heard Hill telling his associate to give him $200, the report said. The employee didn't take the money, and Hill left shortly after. The report said the police department handed their case over to a prosecutor June 22. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Now, the NFL will wait for the legal process to be exhausted. Hill could be facing a suspension, but it is going to take time - perhaps quite a bit of time - for a decision on that to be made. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 2. [WAS - Jahan Dotson optimistic about 2023]() Source: ProFootballTalk.com - Josh Alper Washington Commanders WR Jahan Dotson said he has been working hard this offseason and expects to have a breakout season in 2023. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] New Commanders' OC Eric Bieniemy is looking to shake things up in 2023. We're not saying Dotson can be his version of Tyreek Hill, but the former Chiefs' OC is going to create those types of explosive plays in his system. Dotson shined as a rookie with seven receiving touchdowns, but he got a little banged up and had to miss some time. If healthy, Dotson has crazy speed, a nose for the end zone, and he can take the top off the defense. We're expecting a second-year breakout from the Penn State speedster. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 3. [NE - New contract for DeVante Parker]( Source: NFL.com - Grant Gordon New England Patriots WR DeVante Parker agreed to a new three-year contract with the Patriots Wednesday, June 28, worth as much as $33 million, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The deal includes $14 million in guaranteed money. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] This is a fine deal for Parker, who some reporters had speculated would not make the 53-man roster if the team signed WR DeAndre Hopkins. Parker was a first-round pick of the Dolphins in 2015, but he's only got one 1,000-yard receiving season to his name. He's still capable of tracking passes over his shoulder, so we'll see if Parker can continue in that role for the Patriots this year. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 4. [IND - Two Indy players suspended for gambling]( Source: The Athletic - Zak Keefer Indianapolis Colts CB Isaiah Rodgers and DE Rashod Berry were officially suspended for violating the NFL's gambling policy, the league announced Thursday, June 29. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] The suspensions are considered indefinite through the 2023 season, and they are eligible to apply for reinstatement following the conclusion of the season.

[JAX - Cam Robinson handed four-game ban for PEDs]() Source: ESPN - Adam Schefter Jacksonville Jaguars OT Cam Robinson was suspended four games by the NFL for violating the league's performance-enhancing drug policy Thursday, June 29. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] This is not great news for the Jaguars as Robinson is tasked with being the blindside protector of QB Trevor Lawrence. Now, he won't be eligible to return until Week 5. Good thing the Jaguars selected OT Anton Harrison in the first round of the 2023 NFL draft. He'll be thrust into action while Robinson is suspended with Walker Little holding it down on the right side. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 6. [CAR - Taylor Stallworth headed to Carolina]( Source: ProFootballTalk.com - Michael David Smith Free-agent DT Taylor Stallworth (Texans) reportedly agreed to terms on a one-year contract with the Carolina Panthers on Thursday, June 29. Financial terms of the deal were not immediately disclosed. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] In five pro seasons, Stallworth has only had two starts, and he's bounced around to a few different teams during that time. This is a depth signing for the Panthers, and there's no guarantee Stallworth makes the 53-man roster. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [100% Deposit Match Up To $100 At Underdog Fantasy]( --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 7. [LAR - LA Rams set to add Ahkello Witherspoon]() Source: The Athletic - Jourdan Rodrigue Free-agent CB Ahkello Witherspoon (Steelers) reportedly agreed to terms on an undisclosed contract with the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday, June 29. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] During his time with the Steelers, Witherspoon had four interceptions in two seasons. A third-round pick of the 49ers back in 2017, Witherspoon is back in the NFC West as a reserve/rotational corner with plenty of experience. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 8. [NE - Ja'Whaun Bentley landing two-year extension](=) Source: NFL Network - Ian Rapoport New England Patriots LB Ja'Whaun Bentley reportedly agreed to terms on a two-year contract extension worth $18.75 million - including $9 million fully guaranteed - on Thursday, June 29. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] A fifth-round pick out of Purdue in the 2018 NFL draft, Bentley has turned into a solid force on the Patriots' defense. He's your traditional run-stuffing linebacker, but last year he added 3.0 sacks and an interception in his career-best season.
