Tom Brady is wearing the equipment of a team other than the New England Patri- ots this season for the first time in his career, but the six- time Super Bowl champion’s commitment to covering up the Nike brand logo remains unchanged.

There were numerous occa- sions during his Patriots ca- reer when he went out of his way to not display the Nike logo on his clothing or equip- ment, and he is still trying to hide the Swoosh. Brady shared some photos on Insta- gram Tuesday of a workout with teammates, and he made sure to scribble out the Nike logo on his practice jersey.
‘Strong Sense’ Seahawks Will Sign Either Antonio Brown Or Josh Gordon
ANTONIO BROWN
Antonio Brown and Josh Gordon are two of the most talented wide receivers to ever play in the NFL, but both are currently unemployed be- cause of their extensive off- field issues. If that changes for one or both of them heading into the 2020 season, it may be because the Seattle Seahawks are willing to take a risk.
There is a “strong sense” the Seahawks will eventually sign one of Brown or Gor- don. Garafolo’s colleague, Michael Silver, says the Bal- timore Ravens are also a team to watch and have had internal discussions about Brown.
Adrian Peterson Wants To Play Four More NFL Seasons

“Why not four more years? Why not?” He said. “I don’t want to ever be in a position where I look back and say,

Basketball superstar Le- Bron James and his long- time business partner Maverick Carter have re- portedly launched a new ven- ture to expand their media empire.

homes where they feel like they can be a part of that story,” James told the maga- zine. “And they feel like, Oh, you know what? I can relate to that.”
With James as chairman and Carter as CEO, the firm combines the duo’s SpringHill Entertainment and Uninterrupted LLC, which have birthed entertain- ment projects such as a forth- coming “Space Jam” sequel and an HBO talk show, with a marketing agency called the Robot Co.
Kareem Hunt Wants To Sign Extension With Browns
Kareem Hunt’s stay with the Browns has been a brief one thus far, but he would like to stick around in Cleveland for the long run.
Speaking with reporters on Monday, the Browns running back said that there was “no question” he would like to sign an extension with the team, per Scott Petrak of The Chronicle-Telegram.

for Browns for [a] long time,” Hunt added.
The 24-year-old ex-Pro Bowler logged 464 yards from scrimmage and three total touchdowns in eight games for the Browns last year. He was suspended for the other eight games as a result of the 2018 incident where he assaulted a woman at a hotel, leading to his release from the Kansas City Chiefs.
