Jamal Adams not pleased with early flight time booked to Seattle

New Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams was irritated by the team sending him on an early morning flight from New York to the Emerald City.

Seattle Seahawks fans are thrilled about their team trading for stud safety Jamal Adams, but the relationship between Adams and his new club may have gotten off to a bit of a rocky start.

The Seahawks booked Adams on a 7:00 a.m. flight to Seattle set for Monday morning and the latter voiced his displeasure about the early time on his Twitter account . . . but promptly deleted said tweet.

“I love you guys already @Seahawks but damn y’all didn’t have to put the kid on a 7am flight… Damn lol,” Jamal Adams tweeted, according to the New York Post.

Adams is expected to anchor the secondary with fellow safety and trade acquisition Quandre Diggs. The price of two first-round picks, a third-round pick, and safety Bradley McDougald may be hefty, but time will tell if Adams is worth it.

This little gripe is unlikely to have any long-term repercussions as Adams stated in the tweet that he already loves the Seahawks. As the 2020 NFL season draws closer, it won’t be long before fans will get to see Adams on the field in blue and green.

Broncos QB Drew Lock posts funny tweet after returning to practice

After returning to practice Tuesday, Broncos quarterback Drew Lock joked that he had almost forgotten how to put on a helmet.

Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Drew Lock injured his thumb in a preseason game against the San Francisco 49ers on Aug. 19 and was placed on injured reserve. He hadn’t practiced for nearly three months before finally returning to the field on Tuesday.

After completing his first practice of the regular season, Lock jokingly tweeted that he had almost forgotten how to put on his helmet.

Broncos fans seemed to appreciate Lock’s sense of humor and voiced their support for the QB to get playing time as soon as possible.

Lock is still on injured reserve so he is not yet eligible to play. Denver has three weeks to decide if he will be activated to the 53-man roster or spend the rest of the season on reserve.

When starting quarterback Joe Flacco went down with a neck injury two weeks ago, Brandon Allen was named the new starter. Allen will start again against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday and Allen will likely start against the Buffalo Bills in Week 13.

Lock might have to wait until December to get a chance to start.
