Josh Norman had plenty of negatives during his recent DC performances, but it was almost all positives the last time he played under former Panthers DC Sean McDermott who now runs Buffalo’s defense as the HC and will look to get Norman back to playing at a high-level under a motivating 1-year deal.

Entering March, Milwaukee was rolling in what appeared to be the clear-cut #1 seed in the NBA and the unanimous MVP. Crazy how much can change in 10 days as the leader of the pack has been reeling and their best player is dealing with injuries.
The Bucks have lost three straight and had a .855 win pct prior to the streak. From @EliasSports, that’s tied for the 2nd-best win pct by a team prior to a 3-game losing streak all-time. pic.twitter.com/N26FlaaMDz

The Jets gave Trumaine Johnson an extremely lucrative contract, but are already cutting ties a few years later, even though they’re stuck with $12M dead cap, compared to just $3M in cap space. That’s how bad Johnson has been since arriving to the Big Apple. He’s not even worth $3M anymore.

As interesting as the breakout of Pascal Siakam has been, he’s never had much of a reputation as a passer. Maybe that’s why his 8-assist night on Monday was a new career-high for the All-Star.
