Former Philadelphia Eagles player and "America's Got Talent" finalist Jon Dorenbos is sharing in the Super Bowl magic despite not playing
with the team last season.
The Eagles posted a video Thursday on Twitter of Dorenbos receiving a Super Bowl ring. Dorenbos was a popular figure in the Eagles locker room
Joe Thomas Jersey , known for his gregarious personality and for entertaining teammates with magic tricks.
He was traded to the Saints before the start of last season but retired in September when it was discovered he needed heart surgery, ending his football
career.
Dorenbos learned magic as a kid to help him cope with the death of his mother, who was killed by his father. He performed on NBC's "America's Got
Talent" in 2016 and finished in third place.
Jarvis Landry is leaving one bad offense for another one.The Miami Dolphins agreed to trade the Pro Bowl receiver to the Cleveland Browns for two draft picks, two people familiar with the deal said Friday.
The people confirmed the agreement to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because under NFL rules, no trade can be completed until Wednesday,
the start of the league's new year. The Dolphins will receive a fourth-round
pick this year and a seventh-rounder in 2019, one of the people said.
Miami finished sixth-worst in scoring last season and went 6-10. Cleveland finished last in scoring and went 0-16.
The Browns were desperate to land a playmaker such as Landry
Jamie Collins Jersey , who will complement former Pro Bowl receiver Josh Gordon. Landry has been selected to three consecutive Pro Bowls and has 400
receptions, an NFL record for a fourth-year player.
"Y'all better understand (stuff) about to get SERIOUS... ON MY MAMA," Landry tweeted after news of the deal broke.
The trade was among a flurry Friday by the Browns. They agreed to acquire quarterback Tyrod Taylor from the Buffalo Bills for a third-round draft pick,
and agreed to send quarterback DeShone Kizer to the Green Bay Packers for
cornerback Damarious Randall.
Landry signed a $16 million, one-year franchise tag Thursday with Miami, clearing the path for his trade. The Dolphins began shopping him when the
parties were unable to reach an agreement on a long-term contract.
He's likely to get that extension from the Browns.
Landry made $894,000 last year
Clayton Fejedelem Jersey , when he completed the contract he signed as a rookie. He was by far the highest-profile Dolphins player eligible for free
agency, and perhaps the best player on an offense that sputtered with
quarterback Jay Cutler.
But Landry's volatile personality became a concern for Miami. He was ejected in the fourth quarter of the season finale, a loss to Buffalo, and coach Adam
Gase said the episode was embarrassing and "extremely bad."
Miami's passing attack in 2017 gave Landry a bizarre stat line: 112 receptions to lead the league and break his own franchise record, but an average
of 8.8 yards per catch to rank 110th. He a career-high nine touchdowns but
finished 13 yards shy of 1,000.
Landry's departure adds a receiver to the Dolphins' long list of offseason needs. Receivers Kenny Stills and DeVante Parker are expected to return, along
with quarterback Ryan Tannehill
Gary Zimmerman Jersey , who missed all of 2017 because of a knee injury.
Cleveland is $113 million under the salary cap and was expected to seek an impact receiver in free agency. Acquiring Landry has likely changed those plans
and the Browns can address a multitude of other needs.
Landry typically plays slot receiver, and the Browns have been disappointed with the production of former first-round draft pick Corey Coleman, who has been
injured the past two seasons.
Gordon may benefit most from Landry's arrival and the talented 26-year-old posted four trophy emojis on his Twitter page after the news of trade broke.
With 12 picks in this year's draft, including the Nos. 1 and 4 overall and five in the first 64, the Browns had the ability to pull off a major deal for a
major player.
Hue Jackson has handed his offense over to former Pittsburgh coordinator Todd Haley, who should know how to best use a player of Landry's skill after coaching
Antonio Brown the past few seasons.
Cleveland's offense didn't have a legitimate go-to receiver last season until Gordon returned from an indefinite NFL suspension with five games left. Running
back Duke Johnson finished as the club's leading receiver.
Without enough players to spread out defenses, the Browns were too often one-dimensional
Bruce Ellington Jersey , and their lack of options made life more difficult for Kizer, who led the NFL with 22 interceptions
