Adam Schefter's NFL updates on Trent Williams, Haason Reddick & Ja'Marr Chase | The Pat McAfee Show

49ers news right let's dive into some news uh Trent Williams well iuk obviously deal gets done which clears the road seemingly for the Trent Williams to get done it gets announced by his brother via a picture of a private flight back to San Francisco 49ers training this a big congrats to Trent congrats to the ners was there ever a fear that this wasn't going to get done they were just waiting on the iuk deal to see what they could possibly do or how did this end up coming together so quickly and was this always the plan well it's still not done they're working on finalizing it and I think there are still a couple things that they're trying to get through to get them out to practice today in time it's not done yet but his agency has announced that they're finalizing it so if the agency announces it we'll take them at their word that they could get this finalized by the time the Niners practice today what's amazing is that you know listen I think that they always wanted to get him back he had no more guaranteed money in the deal so when they rework this deal when they finish it off it's going to include a lot more guaranteed money in this and next year that's what going to happen here when they get this finalized at some point in time and so that'll be one thing but then you have the other element is this is a team that has a game seven days from now six days from now and they have not had Brandon auk Trent Williams Christian mcaffrey on the practice field all at once getting ready for a game so today if this deal does get done if they can dot the eyes and cross the teas which are not done just yet if they can get all that done then they can conceivably as they begin their preparations for the Jets could have Trent Willams at left tackle Christian mcaffry who missed all training camp basically with a strain Cal and Brandon auk who missed camp with the Holden all together all at once and again this is a team that feels like it needs all these guys back to be operating to try to pursue the goals that they have for the upcoming season but they always wanted this guy back and they always felt like they would be able to find a way to get it done and they're close enough now that obviously the agency feels like it's going to get done because the agency doesn't announce that if the deal is not going to get done yeah because they look like if it doesn't get done so let's assume that thing is at the goal line and they're about to put it in congrats all of them what all do you know about this at this current time and what do we need to know about the situation shefy well obviously it's a story that he is very fortunate to be alive here because this is a real serious situation he gets shot the bullet goes through his chest and passes out through his back the ners put him on NFI he gets shot about 3:30 on Saturday afternoon you mentioned that party Kyle Shanahan has a party an end of Camp get ready for the season party that was at his house that night it was called for six o'clock so they get the news at 3:30 that their first round draft pick has been shot they're driving to the hospital team officials they don't know what they're going to encounter obviously Ricky Pio was incredibly fortunate to get out of there with significant injury he was fortunate to get out of there with his life frankly and they were able once they found that he was okay to have that party that planned they were going to they were going to cancel it I mean they were going to cancel but when they felt like he was okay the party went on um want to start and he gets put on NFI he's out the first four games and he's gonna have a chance to come back and play starting in week five which is unbelievable considering what he went through on Saturday again really fortunate there yeah 3:30 in the afternoon seemingly in a pretty popular area getting shot in the chest that is wild to think about let's all keep our heads on a swivel uh in this world that we live in but hey Ricky godp speed brother God speed Haason Reddick holdout brother let's talk about uh Hassan reic he's the only one that is still holding out I guess has not been to the team's facility since the opening press conference whenever he got traded over there not sure he even knows what a meeting could look like as a New York Jet how does this get resolved obviously there's deadlines that draw de Drive decisions and everything like that season's very close we're two day hey Chey we're two days away from NFL kickoff two days away but anyways what do you think is going to drive this decision and how do we get a resolution to it well at some point you'd have to think there is going to be a resolution it just does not appear to be close at this time I think right now and these things could change with one phone call but right now it would be a surprise if this deal gets done in time for him to play on Monday night obviously doesn't sound like he's going to be out there against the 49ers who get back Trent Williams presuming that deal gets finished off but Assan Reck again as we've talked about they're engaged in this game of chicken a standoff where the Jets say we need you to report before we're going to do a deal and he says I'm not reporting till you give me a deal neither side has been willing to budge right now and as long as that's the case he continues to sit on the sideline not playing and again I haven't gotten any sense that they've made much progress I haven't gotten any sense that this is getting done anytime soon the sense I've gotten is that this looks like it's going to drag on and we'll see if both sides can figure out a way to avert that but right now it doesn't sound that way okay I'm excited to see how it all pans out because I think that Jets team probably feels as if their defense is going to be very good then if Assan reic can come in and rush the passer on top of that they figure it out let's go maybe get him in the building too he gets to experience what it's like here like hey you w't be you know if you just think about all these situations over time right at some point in time they all almost all get solved like how often does a guy sit out entire it's very very rare the two Chicago Bears did it Al Harris and Gary fensi in 1986 I believe it was or whatever it was it just it's very rare that Shawn Gilbert sat out for a while um leevon Bell told us he needed 17 M's in his front yard and I guess they never offered that he held out that entire Levon Bell oh oh yeah yeah Leon Bell another well that one went back and forth too and there were a couple times where it felt like like it could happen and it didn't um it just it's just not very common now this one today this one today Boer feels like it has the makings of that right but again they could Bridge differences with one phone call and get them in let's go to a different Ja'Marr Chase update situation that's currently happening go ahead Tom yeah Chey I assuming people are getting very very worried in Cincinnati as it is gameweek and Jamar Chase still doesn't have anything done and he's technically I guess a hold in uh still is there anything coming up on game we against the Patriots for Jamar Chase well look again we are at go time when we did this spot last week we talked about the fact that there was going to be a renewed push extra effort from all these teams and players at this point in time we said that last Monday I believe it was and then a couple hours later CD lamb gets done Brandon aayu gets done later in the week Trent Williams looks like it's on the way to getting done today and we're waiting still on his reck which again doesn't feel like it's going to budge and Jamar Chase now this one is I Think It's Tricky and It's tricky because auk and lamb had one year remaining on their deals for teams that had been open about their desire to get deals done and to keep those guys in this particular case we got a receiver with two years left on his deal now two years look they did Joe burrow with two years left and there have been other players like Devonte Smith that got done uh with two years left but the Bengals have already said that they'd prefer to wait even though they have been working on a deal and I do believe they've made another push to try to get something done here but they also know that Jamar is pretty dug in here now do I think he's going to be willing to skip games that's the question we don't know how he feels because he hasn't spoken to the media all we know is he hasn't gone through an actual football practice like he went through the individual drills last week but there's been no football practice 11 on 11 all spring and all summer now again I think the Bengals behind closed doors are making another push to try to get something done and I think that if we go back to last year when did Joe Burrow's deal get done the first game of the year kicked off Thursday night lions at Chiefs 8:15 Eastern 11 minutes later 8:26 the Bengals and Joe burrow reach agreement on a massive New Deal that makes burrow the highest paid quarterback in the game and still does so that deal came 11 minutes into the opener and I almost feel like we're on that type of trajectory where if he's going to play at all this week against New England that deal has to get figured out in the next 48 hours and even then you might only be able to use him in certain situations like red zone spots key third Downs whatever it may be maybe even dress them and you have them but you don't even use them because the truth of the matter is they should be able to handle New England at home the key thing here is that the Bengals play the Chiefs next week in week two yeah and that becomes to me a real leverage point for Jamar Chase because if somehow someway he's still not practicing and not playing in that game against that team that impacts your ability and game that could very well have seeding ramifications later in the season so there's a lot rotting on this both sides know it both sides are going to work to get it done but it is a tricky deal to get done my guess is somehow they figured out if it were me I'm paying the guy he's one of the best players in football you're going to pay him just get it done now get him in the field get him in the lineup and move on but that's not the way that this has proceeded yeah and you talk about the leverage of Jamar Chase having the Chiefs next week he also has the Leverage of the the fine ain't nothing cuz his contract is so small you know it's like miss you Miss a game check toor's like I'm I'm okay with that yeah Joe burrow had a backless jacket on that's worth more uh than one of my game checks at this exact moment so hopefully they'll be able to get it sorted if you miss the season though they can just roll over this year and the next year like if it's not real messy it could get very messy right the contract would toll if he didn't play this year you know again there's an extreme we're not saying this is going to happen we're going going over the various scenarios if he doesn't play this year and the contract tolls I guess if I'm J more Chase I say so what well I'm getting a new deal before I step out on the football field whether that's now or in the off season doesn't matter well good luck to Jamar good luck to the Bengals good luck to Joey burrow yeah [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music]
