02:34 PM ET 05.19 | Brandon Weeden's struggles as a rookie with the Cleveland Browns are well-documented. The 29-year-old threw just 14 touchdown passes to 17 interceptions, prompting many to question whether he truly is a franchise quarterback. The Browns signed Jason Campbell as competition in the offseason, and added Brian Hoyer this week to pad out the depth chart. Given that Weeden is standing on rocky ground, what are the chances someone else will start this season in Cleveland? Head coach Rod Chudzinski confirmed recently that Weeden has been taking first-team reps in practice, ahead of Campbell and Thaddeus Lewis (perhaps on his way out after Hoyer's signing).

10:53 AM ET 05.19 | Just when you thought Donte Stallworth's legal issues were behind him, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) "rolled up" on the embattled NFL wide receiver this weekend. The 32-year-old took to Twitter with claims he was accosted by CIA officials while snapping a photo outside the agency's headquarters in Langley, Virginia. "I came eerily close to being sent to Guantanamo Bay," Stallworth said. "Y'all think I'm joking? They rolled right up on me and I hadn't been there for more than 2 minutes, tops." Stallworth, who had a brief comeback stint with the New England Patriots last season, said U.S. officials questioned him about the photos and his intentions outside the complex.

10:36 AM ET 05.19 | Mike Goodson remains on the Jets roster, despite being slapped with weapons and drugs charges on Friday, but offensive lineman Willie Colon doesn't expect that to be the case much longer. "It's one of the things where it's zero-tolerance with stuff like that," Colon told the Daily News Saturday at the Alliance for Lupus Research walk at MetLife Stadium. "It's sad. Mike could have been huge for us." "He wasn't around a lot, so I didn't really get to see him a lot. For the most part, I was kind of anticipating seeing how he was going to do in OTAs," added Colon. The lineman, who also signed as a free agent this offseason, said the team hadn't said anything to the players about Goodson yet and he heard about it through the news. "A lot of guys were upset. They knew the type of ballplayer (he was)," Colon said.
