A few weeks before he announced his retirement in early June, quarterback Russell Wilson claimed that the Jets made him an offer in free agency. Had he signed with the Jets, Wilson would have slotted in behind starter Geno Smith, his backup in Seattle from 2020-21. But it doesn’t appear there was any real chance […]

Veteran linebacker Demario Davis said that he believes the Jets signed him as a free agent to be a model of what “winning culture looks like” and that process appears to be off to a good start. Davis will be playing alongside Jamien Sherwood at linebacker and Sherwood is coming off a somewhat disappointing 2025 […]

Shortly after defensive superstar Aaron Donald officially announced his retirement in March 2024, the Los Angeles Rams grabbed edge-rusher Jared Verse in the first round of that year’s NFL Draft.  While the two never shared a locker room together, Verse eventually learned what kind of “psychopath” Donald is as it pertains to staying in shape. Verse is now a Cleveland Browns player via […]

I’ve got a theory about the Browns’ quarterback competition. It’s a simple one, which is roughly the limit of my cognitive ability. It goes back to a clip that emerged early in the offseason program. The quarterbacks were doing a basic drill. Catch the snap, fake a pitch, make the drop into passing position, and […]

During Wednesday’s edition […]

The Steelers head into the 2026 season with higher hopes for their receiving corps. DK Metcalf caught 59 passes last season, but the rest of the group only had 77 and the 136 total receptions ranked 31st among receiving groups for the 2025 campaign. The Steelers addressed that shortcoming by trading for Michael Pittman Jr. […]

In 2019, the Dolphins launched one of the most aggressive rebuilds in modern NFL history. The Chris Grier-led overhaul did eventually produce some success, with the GM’s 2022 Mike McDaniel hire leading to the franchise’s first instance of back-to-back playoff berths since the early 2000s. But the McDaniel- and Tua Tagovailoa-centered turnaround did not last. […]

As the Browns navigate their first season without franchise legend Myles Garrett, they’ll be counting on some of their other defensive linemen to step up. That will include veteran defensive tackle Maliek Collins, who is coming off a career season. However, the status of Collins is currently unknown. After suffering a late-season quad injury that […]

The Dallas Cowboys will be without a key member of their defense to start the season. Defensive end Charles Snowden has been suspended for the first three games of the 2026 campaign, though he will be able to participate in preseason activities and games.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are back with quarterback Aaron Rodgers for the 2026 season, and that’s all fine and dandy, but what about the rest of the team’s roster?

Joe Brady has been in the Bills’ building since 2022, working his way up from quarterbacks coach, to offensive coordinator, and now to head coach in 2026.
