NFL-imposed suspension served Chris Doleman Jersey , Seahawks linebacker Mychal Kendricks will make his return to the football field on Monday night. us however many playoff games Seattle plays could be the final act of Kendricks’ career.Kendricks, currently scheduled to be sentenced on federal insider trading charges on January 24, could be headed to prison for between two and three years.“Obviously, that’s a thought that stays in the back of your mind but you just take it every day as it is, day by day just like today,” Kendricks told reporters on Saturday regarding his looming incarceration. “I’m going to be where my feet are. I’m not going to harp on the past. I’m not going to predict the future. I’m just going to be right where I’m at so take it day by day.”Playing football helps keep Kendricks focused on where his feet are.“This is my escape,” Kendricks said. “Football is everything for me and to have lost that also was very hard. That also was probably the hardest thing, having to walk away from the game that I love from a team that has accepted me. Just wanting to be here and not being able to Chuck Foreman Jersey , hurt.”Kendricks ultimately was suspended eight games after entering his guilty plea to a white-collar crime, two more than the league’s baseline punishment for domestic violence. Through it all, he has obtained clarity regarding who his true friends really are.“The hardest part about this is the situation itself,” Kendricks said. “Understanding the severity, the friends that I’ve lost through — no one truly understands the intricacies and that being said, it’s understandable for people to want to waltz away. Deep down, I’ll never truly know who’s with me or not but I can tell. There’s a shift in energy between those who know me. If they truly do know me, then there’s no shift Paul Krause Jersey , but it can be a blessing in disguise. Those who aren’t supposed to be in my life won’t be and through hard situations like this, that sifts out.”While that may be, as Kendricks called it, a silver lining, the dark cloud looms.“That part is inevitable and I probably won’t speak on that,” Kendricks said.Kendricks has football to distract him from what would be constant obsession regarding whether he will serve 30 months or 20 months or maybe just one month or maybe no time at all. At a time when some are caught on camera committing violence against others without even being arrested, it’s hard to process Kendricks facing such a lengthy sentence for a situation in which it’s entirely possible that someone preyed on his wealth and naiveté. Weird spot for someone that wanted to be the lead guy"Another member of last year’s Minnesota Vikings team is taking his talents elsewhere, and he’s going to a place that would appear to be a strange fit given his overtures about wanting to be a lead player in a team’s backfield.According to Adam Schefter of ESPN Fran Tarkenton Jersey , running back Latavius Murray is moving on, as he will be signing a deal with the New Orleans Saints when free agency officially begins on Wednesday.Murray signed with the Vikings before the start of the 2017 season, and with the injury to Dalvin Cook quickly found himself in a prominent role in a tandem with Jerick McKinnon. He was the Vikings’ leading rusher in 2017 with 842 yards, and was second to Cook in 2018. He also found the end zone 14 times via the ground in those two seasons.The Vikings restructured Murray’s contract last offseason, voiding the final year of his contract so that he would reach free agency this offseason. Given Murray’s expressed desire to be a leading man in a team’s backfield, it seems strange that he would go to a team that has one of the best backs in the NFL in Alvin Kamara. As Schefter states, however, this move likely means the Saints are moving on from Mark Ingram Brett Favre Jersey , and given his goal-line abilities, Murray could very easily slot into that role.So, another member of the Vikings will be playing elsewhere in 2019. I don’t know if any of us expected Murray to be back, but the exodus continues.
