Reggie Bush is returning punts during practice, but don’t hold your breath to see him do it in the preseason. “I’m going to get a chance. I’ve already talked to Coach about it. I’ll get a chance to return some punts. It’s a process. We’re taking it step by step. I’m pretty sure they just…

It’s a 6-year deal worth a potential $51 million, $14 million guaranteed (not bad for the #10 pick). Arizona head coach Denny Green blew up before the media: “The offer we have now we put on the table a week ago. Using Harrisburg math, that means August the 7th. It’s an outstanding contract. It is…
