The Los Angeles Rams have cut kicker Josh Karty. The breakup was all but official after Harrison Mevis (the “Thiccer Kicker”) took over duties for the last three games.

Say what you want about Joe Burrow, but he’s entertaining and he recently recounted growing up and watching Thanksgiving football and of course watching the Detroit Lions and their once upon a time quarterback, Matthew Stafford.

Ironically, people argued that Young would get injured too often and Richardson would look lost in the NFL, but it turns […]
