The Official 2024 NFL Offseason Discussion Thread

[Doom]

The 2020 NFL season is officially over, as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers stunned the Kansas City Chiefs 31-9 in Super Bowl LV, to win their second Super Bowl since 2002.

Now begins the offseason.

This offseason, we'll see how it unfolds with free agency signings, trades, retirements, contract extensions, the 2021 NFL Draft, a possible 17-game schedule in the making, and other NFL news. This is the official thread for these discussions as news breaks as well as just a good ol' chit-chat with America's Most Popular Sport.

From the quote of Judge Mills Lane, LET'S GET IT ON!

First news, Patrick Mahomes is to have surgery for his turf toe:

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Patrick Mahomes is scheduled for surgery Wednesday for the turf toe injury that bothered the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback late in the season and throughout the NFL playoffs, a source confirmed to ESPN.

Mahomes is expected to miss most of offseason work with the team but be full go by training camp, according to a source.

Mahomes had one of the worst statistical games of his career in the Chiefs' 31-9 Super Bowl LV loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He was 26-of-49 for 270 yards, zero touchdowns, two interceptions and a passer rating of 52.3. Kansas City failed to score a touchdown for the first time since Mahomes became a starter in 2018.

But, as he noted shortly after the game, he played well with the turf toe in the AFC Championship Game victory over the Buffalo Bills.

"I can't say the toe was a problem when I played two weeks ago and I played well on it,'' he said. "Anytime you play football, you have to battle through injuries.''

NFL Network first reported news of the surgery.

Man anytime I hear someone is getting a Surgery on their Feet or Legs I wince. They say Mahomes will be okay when it time to play again, but you would think rest would be just as great vs surgery, so this Turf Toe must be really bad for it to need Surgery. On the homefront here NFL people saying Wentz should be traded if not this Week soon with the Bears and Colts calling up Lurie and Roseman. Man to get that done huge dead money on my team which with that dough you could sign multiple guys with it and that ain't happening. I wouldn't be shocked to see this Eagles team after FA and the Draft and after next Season in the top 10 in the Draft again with the guys leaving. Nick Sirianni better produce from the get go if you're willing to fire a SB winning Coach then Sirianni at most has two Seasons to get it right.

It's confirmed on ESPN that the Texans and JJ Watt have agreed to part ways after ten seasons.

JJ Watt has done A LOT for Houston overall. So it's sad to see him leaving that place.

Going to be interesting to see where ends up going to.

Wonder how helpful he be to a team, cause Falcons truly need help on defense.

Watt gets to leave, but Deshaun Watson can't. It seems like they are keeping him prisoner because they don't want to ever get of him.
