The Baltimore Ravens and Ronnie Stanley have agreed to a five-year, $98.75 million extension.

The deal only trails the $22 million per season average Laremy Tunsil signed with the Houston Texans.

The extension keeps Stanley protecting Lamar Jackson's blind side through the 2025 season.

"Ronnie is the mainstay on our offensive line," Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta said. "He's a shutdown left tackle who excels on the field and in our community. This is just the beginning for Ronnie, and we could not be happier for him and his family."

Through seven weeks this season, Stanley has a pass-block win rate of 96.8%, the highest among qualified offensive tackles.

The Seattle Seahawks decided not to pursue Antonio Brown after performing their due diligence on him.

Brown had contentious exits from the Pittsburgh Steelers and Las Vegas Raiders. Brown also was suspended eight games for multiple Personal Conduct Policy violations. He faces further potential discipline for a pending civil lawsuit alleging sexual assault, based on the evidence developed.

The Seahawks may have acknowledged interest in Brown simply to placate Russell Wilson, who had pushed for them to sign him.

The Dallas Cowboys have informed Dontari Poe and Daryl Worley that they will be released if they can't trade them this week.

The trade deadline is November 3, but the Cowboys are looking to cut bait sooner.

Dallas began shedding veteran parts on Tuesday when they traded Everson Griffen to the Detroit Lions for a conditional sixth-round pick.

Antonio Brown can make up to $2.5 million with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this season.

Brown's deal will contain $1 million in base salary and roster bonuses, along with $750,000 if the Buccaneers win the Super Bowl and he also has three $250,000 incentives for receptions, yards and touchdowns. For Brown's individual incentives to trigger, the Buccaneers must also make the playoffs.

Brown still has to pass COVID-19 protocols before he can join the team but is likely to make his Buccaneers debut in Week 9 against the New Orleans Saints on Nov. 8.

The deal reunites Brown with quarterback Tom Brady and could help a team that has been banged up at wide receiver.

Antonio Brown and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have agreed to a one-year deal.

Brown reunites with Tom Brady who was pushing for a deal to be reached since he joined the Bucs in March.

Tampa Bay's wide receivers have struggled with injuries this season.

Bruce Arians worked with Brown while he was the offensive coordinator in Pittsburgh and previously had been critical of Brown.

The Seattle Seahawks were also interested in Brown.

Russell Wilson believes Antonio Brown deserves another chance in the NFL and he wants it to be with the Seattle Seahawks.

"I think Antonio definitely has taken those steps [in the right direction], and like I said, nobody's perfect," Wilson said. "From the conversations I've had with him, he's really been remorseful and he's been humbled along the way. Like I said, I pray that he can continue to grow, just like anybody."

Wilson has lobbied for the Seahawks to sign Brown. The wide receiver's suspension is eligible to end after Week 8.

The quarterback said he has gotten to know Brown over the past four or five years.

"I think the reality about Antonio is he is one of the best players to play this game obviously," Wilson said. "I think that he has always been a special player in terms of [on] the field. The reality with Antonio is, he's had some tough moments in his life, especially as of late. I think he's gone through a lot of things he wishes he could take back and do, and just not say, whatever it might be. But I think he is a special player, for sure. I don't know what's going to happen with him or not. I don't know how serious it is us getting him or not. But I do know that obviously he can play some football. I think that's the thing. I've developed a personal relationship with him, and not everybody is perfect. And I think that's the reality, none of us are. So hopefully he gets to play football again."

The Baltimore Ravens plan to sign Dez Bryant to the practice squad if his workout goes well and passes his physical.

Bryant previously worked out for the Ravens in August.

Bryant tore his Achilles in 2018 shortly after signing with the New Orleans Saints. Bryant last played in 2017.

The suspension of Antonio Brown is eligible to end after Week 8 and the Seattle Seahawks are now position to push to sign him.

Both Russell Westbrook and Geno Smith are friends with Brown and worked out with him in the offseason.

Other teams have also expressed interest in Brown and there has been more and more activity around him in recent days.

Le'Veon Bell has agreed to sign with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Bell was released by the New York Jets earlier this week.

Bell also received interest from the Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins.

Le'Veon Bell plans to sign with either the Miami Dolphins, Kansas City Chiefs or Buffalo Bills.

Bell will make a decision as early as Thursday. Bell will prioritize his role in the offense and chances of winning in his decision. 

A reunion with the Pittsburgh Steelers is considered very unlikely. 

Bell was released by the New York Jets this week.
