Chiefs quarterback EJ Manuel signed this offseason Antworten

KANSAS CITY http://www.cardinalsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-byron-murphy-jersey , Mo. (AP) — to compete for a backup job, has decided to retire after four seasons with Buffalo and one season with Oakland.Manuel was the 16th overall pick of the Bills in the 2013 draft, going 6-11 while struggling to live up to expectations. He’d been Derek Carr’s backup the past two seasons with the Raiders.His retirement was part of a series of roster moves the Chiefs made Monday.The Chiefs signed wide receiver Rashard Davis, running back Marcus Marshall, tight end Jody Fortson and defensive backs Herb Miller and Andrew Soroh. They also claimed offensive tackle Zach Golditch off waivers from Arizona while waiving wide receivers Andre Lindsey and Sammie Coates, defensive backs Leon McQuay and Dakari Moore and fullback JD Moore.Tight end Tim Ward was placed on the non-football injury list while wide receiver Jamire Jordan, an undrafted free agent from Fresno State, was placed on injured reserve. MEXICO CITY — The NFL’s decision to move the regular-season game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Rams due to the poor condition of the turf at Azteca Stadium has left many Mexicans disappointed, angered and wondering how it will affect the country’s future relationship with the league.After consulting with the players association and local officials, the NFL determined the conditions of the venue did not meet the standards for playability and moved the game back to the Los Angeles Coliseum. The Rams (9-1) and Chiefs (9-1) will face off Monday night in a much-anticipated game between the top two teams in each conference.Based solely on the teams’ records, the game was going to be the best matchup ever played outside the United States.But Mexico blew it.“Colossal shame” was the headline of the sports newspaper Record: “The league takes away the best game of the season due to the lousy state of the field that Estadio Azteca was not able to fix. The NFL has left, and its return is in jeopardy.”Azteca officials changed the playing surface from natural grass to a hybrid in May Andy Isabella Jersey , but the turf hasn’t been ideal for several months due to its intense use. Since July 21, America and Cruz Azul, the two Liga MX teams that share the stadium, have played 23 games between them in the stadium, and the women’s professional team from America has played another seven games there.The stadium also hosted two concerts by Colombian singer Shakira on Oct. 11 and 12, and another from music channel Telehit on Nov. 7 that left the field in its worst condition in years.“I feel devastated, angered and ashamed, all of that together,” said former NFL kicker Raul Allegre, who is Mexican and works as an analyst for ESPN Deportes. “I’m still trying to figure out how small minds were so irresponsible in the preparations for a game of this magnitude. I know that the world does not revolve around the NFL, but this is a great event not only for the sport but for the country, and it is inconceivable how it was taken so lightly.”According to an NFL study released last year, the game between the Oakland Raiders and the Houston Texans played in 2016 generated a $45 million impact on the local economy. The Mexican government said that last year’s game between the Raiders and the New England Patriots topped that number.The game is usually scheduled on the third weekend of November Brian Burns Jersey , when Mexicans celebrate the Revolution’s anniversary, and the authorities organize additional activities in order to entice fans to spend the entire weekend in the capital. For this year’s game, the fan-fest that drew more than 300,000 fans in Chapultepec Park was moved to the Zocalo, the country’s main square located in downtown Mexico City, in an attempt to draw even more fans. The NFL office in Mexico and the Sports Institute of Mexico City also scheduled 5k and 10k races for Sunday.Local authorities have not said whether those events will continue.“We have to learn from this experience so it won’t happen again in the future,” said Horacio De la Vega, director of the sports institute in Mexico City. “Everyone needs to assume their own responsibility in this. I think that the crew that takes care of the field in Azteca should have put more attention in such a big issue as the playing field is, and that did not happen.”Many fans are also angered because they already paid airfares and hotel fees that are probably lost.“I’m very upset because I already purchased my plane tickets and they canceled the game at the last minute. They promised to reimburse my money for the game ticket, but what about the other expenses, who is going to be held accountable for that?” said Víctor Reynoso, a Rams fan who was planning to come to the capital from the northern city of Monterrey.Reynoso is probably not alone, according to Mexico’s Tourism Secretary; around 30 http://www.panthersfootballauthentic.com/greg-little-jersey-authentic ,000 fans typically visit the city for the weekend of the game.The federal government, through the Tourism Secretary, pays the NFL $14.5 million for each game. Last year, the NFL and Televisa, which owns Estadio Azteca, announced that they had signed an extension to bring back games until the 2021 season.But it’s uncertain what will happen after Televisa failed to present a field up to NFL standards. Several NFL owners are wary of additional games at Azteca, and while the league is still keen on playing games in Mexico, it might be ready to consider other venues there. Monterrey and Guadalajara have stadiums capable of hosting NFL games, and both cities will be hosting 2026 World Cup matches.100<button class="view-gallery">View Gallery</button> Gallery:View from the sidelines: NFL cheerleaders 2018Raj Mehta-USA TODAY Sports | Raj Mehta
