NFL commissioner Roger Goodell met with Matt Walsh for three hours on Tuesday and said no new information had come to light as a result and indicated that the Spygate scandal had run its course.

In an early-afternoon news conference, Goodell stopped short of saying Spygate was a closed matter, but appeared to indicate that the issue had hit a dead end.

"I don't know where else I would turn," Goodell told reporters, adding he did not know of anyone else who had additional information, "but I reserve the right to review new information if it comes up."

"The fundamental information that Matt provided was consistent with what we disciplined the Patriots for last fall," Goodell said. [READ]

Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher could skip the team's mandatory workouts because of his unhappiness with his contract, according to a report on ESPN.com.

Chicago's involuntary workouts begin on May 30.

The Bears haven't budged on his contract demands, despite his absence from the team's voluntary minicamp.

"I would bet I wouldn't be there," Urlacher said, according to Yahoo.com. "My agents and the team had some good dialogue early on, but nothing's happened lately. It's been almost two months since there's been any action on their end, and it's a waiting game right now."

He has four years left on his nine-year, $56.5 million contract, but feels it's outdated. [READ]

Falcons wide receiver Joe Horn wants to be traded, according to a report in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

"They’re going with the younger guys and I don’t have a problem with that if that’s the course they’ve chosen. I want to have an opportunity to play with a team that needs a veteran to play and contribute and who helps the young guys," the former Saint added. [READ]

Disgruntled tight end Chris Baker was a no-show at the Jets' first voluntary practice at Hofstra University on Monday, according to The New York Daily News.

Long snapper David Binn, the Chargers’ all-time leader in games played, signed a new four-year contract Monday that will keep him with the Bolts through 2011. Binn’s previous contract was due to expire after the 2008 season.

“David has been a true professional and a master of his craft for many years,” Chargers' General Manager A.J. Smith said. “We are all pleased that he will continue on with the Chargers for years to come.”

The 36-year-old Binn will enjoy his 15th NFL season this fall.

Renowned for his quick and accurate snaps, Binn was selected to the AFC Pro Bowl squad after the 2007 season when he was chosen by Patriots' Head Coach Bill Belichick as the AFC’s “need” player. The San Mateo, California native has played in 223 regular season games. He’s missed just one contest in 14 years. Binn has played in 151 consecutive regular season and postseason games dating back to 1998.

In December of 2006, Binn played in his 201st game in lightning bolts to break the club record previously owned by Junior Seau and Russ Washington. In January’s Divisional Playoff win in Indianapolis, Binn also became the franchise’s all-time leader in postseason games played. He has participated in nine playoff games.

This fall, Binn will tie Washington and Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Fouts for the most seasons with the Chargers (15).

He signed a new five-year contract in March of 2004, the first of 31 re-signings the Chargers have made under Smith’s watch. [READ]

He has repeatedly said that he wants to remain in St. Louis.
