| Irving has been suspended four games for violating the NFL's substance-abuse policy, the second straight year the pass rusher is facing a ban to start the season. Irving's four-game suspension to start last season was for violating league policy on performance enhancers. Analysis: After last season's suspension, Irving had seven sacks in eight games before sustaining a concussion that kept him out the remaining four games. He has 11 1/2 sacks in 35 games over three seasons for Dallas. The first game he is eligible is Oct. 7 at Houston. |

| The Arizona Cardinals have signed Lee to a two-year contract extension through 2020. Financial terms of the deal weren't disclosed Thursday.

| 6/10/2018 | Earl Thomas, Sea, S | |
| Thomas says he will skip the Seahawks' mandatory minicamp as he angles for a new contract. Analysis: Thomas, who's entering the final year of his current deal, issued a statement on social media stating he wants "certainty in regards to the upcoming years of his career." Whether the three-time All-Pro safety gets his wish remains to be seen, as the Seahawks reportedly had discussions - most notably with the Cowboys - over possibly trading him around the time of the draft. It's a situation that could very well linger into training camp. |
