More trade and signing calls
The same kind of call, about other players and teams.
- Tom PelisseroTrade and Signing Calls · Joey Porter Jr.Hit · 100Pelissero laid out the Giants' quarterback situation with Jameis Winston starting, said Jayden Daniels likely won't be back when Washington plays the Giants and that Caleb Williams is unlikely to play Monday night, and floated Joey Porter Jr. landing in Dallas and Kirk Cousins being traded in-season.
- Joel CorryTrade and Signing Calls · Joey Porter Jr.Hit · 100Corry runs through 2026 contract-year players and forecasts how their situations resolve: Puka Nacua as a prime franchise tag candidate in Los Angeles, a second straight tag for George Pickens in Dallas, a possible pre-deadline trade of Joey Porter Jr., and Moro Ojomo getting his best contract away from Philadelphia.
