The Jaguars have explored the possibility of pursuing free agent linebacker Desmond Bishop, who was released by the Green Bay Packers on Monday. Bishop, who is reportedly visiting Minnesota today and has a meeting lined up with Kansas City, missed all of last year after sustaining a hamstring injury in the preseason. The Jaguars have not set up a visit with Bishop yet, but it could happen later this week. Bishop, 28, played inside linebacker in the Packers’ 3-4 scheme. The Jaguars are expected to play a 4-3 defense this year. ...

Some Realms I Owned: Elizabeth Bishop in Manhattan

Elizabeth Bishop, "Interior with Extension Cord." Undated; watercolor, gouache, and ink. There are thirteen addresses in Manhattan where devout readers can stalk Elizabeth Bishop’s ghost: seven hotels and six apartments. Because no historical plaques have been hung to mark them, vigilance is crucial. You could pass by any one of them without realizing one of America’s greatest poets once called it home, or some version thereof. If these locales are not enough, peruse the writer’s several thousand letters for additional jaunts. At the entrance to the public library’s main reading room, for example, you can sit on the bench where, in 1936, Elizabeth arranged to meet Marianne Moore. The city is dirty enough that a small remnant of the writer, if only the dust on her soles, might linger there. The compulsion to visit Elizabeth’s former residences is the same one that drives Shakespeare lovers to Stratford-upon-Avon and Thoreau converts to Walden Pond. Oscar Wilde’s lipstick-covered tomb proves such journeys are never simply educational field trips, but affairs of deep passion. Accordingly, I begin a pilgrimage: I will visit all these addresses. And so I set out on a cool spring day for 16 Charles Street, the poet’s first Manhattan residence, where she spent the fall of 1934. Bishop was then twenty-three years old, a would-be writer whose mind was as much a boxing ring for hope and trepidation as my own. She was sick that New Year’s E ...

According to Mike Florio of Profootballtalk.com, free agent linebacker Desmond Bishop is on the Kansas City Chiefs radar. Bishop will visit the Minnesota Vikings on Wednesday, but the Chiefs have shown interest in the 28 year old middle linebacker. One thing for sure, the release has given Bishop new motivation. He is coming off a serious hamstring injury suffered in the 2012 preseason. A deal could be contingent on playing time and staying healthy. "This is definitely a motivating factor. For several reasons, moreso I think than anything in my entire career,” Bishop said, via Jason Wilde of ESPNWisconsin. “ Just from the standpoint of actually being cut. You figure it’s going to happen to everybody eventually at some point in their career, but I felt like I was the type of player who can go out on their own time. ...

In April, we discussed the folly of a so-called "hometown discount" with respect to the Green Bay Packers' negotiations with quarterback Aaron Rodgers. My point was that the Packers wouldn't change their operating policies whether Rodgers signed a below- or above-market deal, and I think the events of this week have borne out that theory. The release of linebacker Desmond Bishop separated the Packers from a luxury that, quite frankly, they could easily have afforded. ...

More : Chiefs blog Arrowhead Pride on Bishop Bishop was released by the Green Bay Packers on Monday. He missed the entire 2012 season with a torn hamstring and was set to make $3.4 million this season. The Packers decided to move on when he wouldn't accept a pay cut. Bishop's hamstring injury isn't 100 percent healed yet, but he's still 28 years old and a quality defender when healthy. In 2011, he recorded 115 tackles, five sacks and two forced fumbles. If the Chiefs sign Bishop, he could earn the starting job over Akeem Jordan next to Derrick Johnson. He was limited in workouts while with the Packers, but he should be ready to go for training camp with whatever team signs him.

Desmond Bishop’s Successful Return Far from a Medical Certainty

Tue, 18 Jun 2013 16:44:54 GMT

A recent study from the American Journal of Orthopedics paints an uncertain picture for the return of Desmond Bishop from a ruptured hamstring tendon suffered last August. Bishop, 28, was released by the Green Bay Packers Monday in a move cited for both medical reasons and numbers at the position. The former starting inside linebacker had been unable to participate in any of the Packers offseason workouts, including OTAs and mandatory minicamps, and the Packers also re-signed Brad Jones to a three-year, $11.75 million deal in March. However, the recent history of ruptured hamstrings (where the tendon is torn off the pelvic bone and must be surgically reattached) in the NFL offers no clear answer on what kind of player Bishop will be now or long-term. The June 2013 study from the American Journal of Orthopedics looked at 10 confirmed cases of ruptured hamstrings in the NFL from 1990 to 2008. While nine of the 10 players in the study returned to play the next season, only five of the 10 played more than one game following the injury. In addition, two of the 10 players returned and had major injuries occur to the same leg. One suffered a torn Achilles tendon and another re-ruptured the same hamstring (the player was a linebacker). On this note, it is worth noting that Bishop has already been dealing with a strain in the same hamstring he injured in August. In its conclusion, the study found hamstring ruptures to be more rare and sev ...

Desmond Bishop To Visit Vikings Today

As I said in the Open Thread, everyone prepare your best DERP THE VIKINGS ARE SIGNING THE PACKERS LEFTOVERS DERP one-liners. Or, you know. . .seriously. . .get over it already. The Green Bay Packers released linebacker Desmond Bishop yesterday, and his first stop as a newly-minted free agent is going to be with the Minnesota Vikings . Bishop has played one of the inside spots in the Packers' 3-4 defense, and it is unclear whether the Vikings would want him to play the weak-side linebacker position (keeping Erin Henderson in the middle) or to have him move to the middle of Minnesota's 4-3 (which would probably be less of a transition and allow Henderson to stay at the position he has been at for the entirety of his career to this point). After leading the Green Bay defense in tackles in 2011, Bishop missed the entire 2012 season after injuring his hamstring in a pre-season game against the San Diego Chargers . If the Vikings were to sign Bishop, it would do a lot to help their linebacking corps, provided that Bishop is fully recovered from his injury from last season. If he is, the Vikings would still be getting a pretty damn productive football player. If anything happens on this front, we'll let you know as soon as it does. ...
