The New England Patriots rolled the dice on Stefon Diggs last offseason, signing him despite coming off a major knee injury. For better or worse, the former Buffalo Bills star had a decent campaign in Foxborough, but that wasn’t enough to keep him around. Now, after being acquitted of his assault

For an article published on Thursday morning, New York Giants reporter Dan Duggan of The Athletic suggested that free-agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. would be a Giants player today if head coach John Harbaugh truly wanted to bring Beckham back to what was his NFL home from the 2014 draft through the 2018

Previously, quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr. was staying away from the Indianapolis Colts during springtime workouts after he requested a trade.

John Harbaugh is approaching his first season with the New York Giants, and he’s been busy doing everything in his power to put the pieces together to turn this franchise around. While the Giants have a strong quarterback in Jaxson Dart, they also had a 4-13 record in the 2025

Multiple reports surfaced during the ongoing offseason suggesting that quarterback Jalen Hurts was “the source of much internal frustration” for at least some people within the Philadelphia Eagles during the 2025 campaign.  Coming off the Eagles’ wild-card playoff loss to the San Francisco 49ers, former Green Bay Packers quarterbacks coach Sean Mannion is now serving as

Jonathan Greenard was productive during his first Vikings season and remained a full-time starter in 2025.

David Njoku recently visited the Chargers. That summit clearly went well, as a contract agreement is now in place between Los Angeles and the veteran tight end. Team and player have finalized a one-year deal, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. He adds this pact has a maximum value of $8MM.

The New England Patriots are trying their best to move on and shut down the outside noise.

The Bears entered the 2026 draft with a major pass rushing need, and our mock draft predicted Chicago would address that need in the first round. However, the team did not use any of their seven picks on a pass rusher, so as Albert Breer of SI.com writes, it would

It feels like the worst-kept secret in the NFL that the Philadelphia Eagles are planning to trade wide receiver A.J. Brown to the New England Patriots.  The Eagles are expected to deal Brown to the Patriots on or after June 1 to avoid a major cap hit. Per Over the Cap, Philadelphia
