With what is going on, I don’t know if it’s really worth it.” “I don’t want to have to deal with him getting a concussion and what it would be like later in life,” he said. Scott also says he is concerned about the impact football has had on his life and plans to get evaluated when his career is over.

Over the course of the 30-year lease, owner Zygi Wilf could get nearly that much back in a naming rights deal. According to Charley Walters of the St. Paul Pioneer Press, Wilf could get as much as $15 million a year in a naming right fee. Add that up and it would be more than $400 million over 30 years. The hope is the Vikings will be able to open their new building in 2016.

The surgery was performed in Charlotte, N.C, by foot and ankle specialist Dr. Robert Anderson. The Giants have set a 12-week timetable for Nicks’ return. Adam Schefter of ESPN tweeted “One person familiar with the Nicks fractured foot said it was more like a ‘4 to 6 week’ injury.’’ Nicks’ agent, Peter Schaffer, told The Post, “we will know more next week,’’ regarding the earliest Nicks can be expected to return.

Under the terms of the CBA, a player who is franchised three times gets at least a 44 percent increase in his salary. Brees was franchised by the San Diego Chargers in 2005 and was designated as such by the Saints this offseason. If the 2005 tag counts as being franchised a second time under the current collective bargaining agreement, his one-year tender would jump drastically to $23.574 million in 2013 if the two sides fail to agree on a long-term deal and New Orleans tags him again next year. The two sides are seemingly far apart on agreeing to a long-term deal and failing to reach one would open the door for Brees to be franchised by the Saints again next year. Source: Yahoo!
