METAIRIE Kyler Murray Jersey , La. (AP) — veteran safety Kurt Coleman after only one season.The move, listed on the NFL’s official transactions report on Thursday afternoon, will save the Saints at least $4 million but comes less than a year after New Orleans signed Coleman to a three-year deal worth more than $16 million.The deal included a $4.5 million signing bonus, $3 million of which will count against the Saints’ 2019 salary cap.The 30-year-old Coleman played in 18 games for the Saints but saw his snap count decline over the course of the season as the club increasingly relied on second-year safety Vonn Bell. Coleman finished the regular season with 30 solo or assisted tackles, including one tackle for loss and a forced fumble. He did not have an interception or pass breakup. In two playoff games Byron Murphy Jersey , he assisted on a special teams tackle.Coleman began his NFL career with Philadelphia in 2010 and had his most productive campaign as part of Carolina’s 2015 Super Bowl team, intercepting seven passes that season. It is no secret that the NFL has become increasingly more focused on the passing game. The NFL used to hand the ball off to the running back twenty-five times per game but those days are long gone. The rules today are in favor of a more pass friendly league and in the minds of the NFL higher ups, more scoring equates to more viewership. On the field, the numbers tell the same story. The top-15 all-time passing yard seasons have all been by active quarterbacks with the exceptions of Peyton Manning and Dan Marino whose skill set could be directly attributed to what the NFL looks like today.Last season, Tom Brady led the league in passing yards with 4 Andy Isabella Jersey ,577 followed behind by Philip Rivers with 4,515. There were eight total quarterbacks that eclipsed 4,000 yards last season. The gold standard for elite quarterbacks used to be 3,000 yards, but we have discussed that already. The amount of passing yards per game by NFL quarterbacks has continued to grow and this upcoming season will be no different. Last NFL draft was the first time in a long time that four quarterbacks were selected in the top 10 that most draft analysts viewed as elite prospects.The current young crop of quarterbacks will surely place the NFL in a great place as the QBs we have grown accustomed to over the years play their final seasons. Whether it’s Tom Brady Zach Allen Jersey , Drew Brees, or Ben Roethlisberger, this crop of signal callers will not be around forever. Let’s examine 10 QBs who won’t crack 3,000 yards and 10 who surprisingly will.
