07:02 AM ET 05.24 | According to a teammate, it's time Gang Green moves on from Mark Sanchez. This from a Jets player, who asked not to be identified: "Everyone on the team likes Mark personally but there's a general feeling among some of the players that maybe it's time to give someone else a chance." The player went on to say that he estimates that 80-90 percent of the team feels the same way he does. However many players it is, none of them could be blamed for wanting Sanchez to move on. In recent seasons, he's been an utter disaster. It is, in fact, only fair to let Sanchez go, so Sanchez can find a fresh start. In a Wednesday session of Jets OTAs, Sanchez threw three picks in 11 pass attempts.

07:01 AM ET 05.24 | At least on Thursday, Robert Griffin III looked like a guy quite capable of fulfilling his father's desire to see the Redskins throw the ball a lot this season. [RGIII] said after the Washington Redskins' organized team activity Thursday that his surgically repaired right knee "feels great" and he hopes to be ready to participate in training camp. "The knee feels great," Griffin said. "I'm able to do all the stuff out there without any hesitation." Griffin did not participate in the OTA but was on the field and did some running and throwing. He said there are two phases remaining in his rehabilitation. ... The Redskins begin training camp July 25, and Griffin said: "My goal is to be out there for training camp."

07:01 AM ET 05.24 | St. Louis has what may be the hardest player to miss this OTA season. The newest Ram, tackle Thomas Brown, is a mountain of a man. Signed as a college free agent out of Mississippi earlier this week, Brown is listed at 6-foot-10 and 385 pounds. But he is even bigger than that. "Actually, we weighed him in at 403," Rams coach Jeff Fisher said. "We had him in for a rookie tryout and he had some issues we had to clear up from a physical standpoint. But we put that behind us. We worked him out on both sides of the ball and decided that his best position would be offensive tackle. He's a defensive lineman trying to convert to offense, but he got through practice."

07:00 AM ET 05.24 | Brian Urlacher walked away from football this week, somewhat ironically on good knees. "I wanted to feel good in the offseason," Urlacher said. "I had a little pain after the season. But my knee feels unreal now. Good timing, huh?" ... Although the Bears seemed to leave open the possibility of an Urlacher return months after sending out a parting news release, such a scenario never materialized. Some speculated Urlacher would end up with the rival Vikings based on that team's need for a middle linebacker. Only one team outside of the Bears truly intrigued Urlacher. "If I could have picked a spot, it would have been Dallas," Urlacher said. "(The Cowboys) run our defense. They took our d-coordinator (Rod Marinelli). That would have been ideal."

06:59 AM ET 05.24 | The clock on Jared Allen, the Vikings $14-million man (his cap number is more than $17M), is ticking. As you well know, [Allen] has reached an unfamiliar point as he enters his 10th NFL season. He's suddenly in a contract year. ... Given Allen's age (31), his battles with shoulder and knee injuries in 2012 and the expensive price tag he'll certainly command until his playing days are over, it's very possible his time as a Viking could be nearing an end. ... Oh, and you also should know that when Allen went to get his haircut a few weeks back, he decided to go back to his trademarked mullet. "I'm going to rock it, man. Let's bring it back," Allen said. "I figured why not end my contract the way I started it."
