“I have an MRI report to prove it. The team knows about it, we’ve been in constant communication,” Carr said. “There’s nothing wrong, we’re figuring it out and we’re gonna go forward with that.” He also criticized media speculation about his injury and his absence in New Orleans as the

John Spytek came to Las Vegas from Tampa, but the former Tom Brady college teammate also has a past in Denver. Some of his hires reflect that. The Raiders hired Broncos exec Mark Thewes to be their senior VP of football operations early this offseason, and they have since made

Saints quarterback Derek Carr confirmed that he was dealing with a shoulder injury during a guest sermon at Church LV in Las Vegas last weekend, according to ESPN’s Katherine Terrell. “I have an MRI report to prove it,” said Carr. “The team knows about it, we’ve been in constant communication.” 

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones had a fairly harsh warning for one of his star players over injury rehab. Jones made a pointed comment about cornerback Trevon Diggs, who is currently working his way back from knee surgery. It is Diggs’ second major injury, as he had to work his

The Patriots’ Cole Strange pick generated scrutiny at the time for being a reach, and the young guard has yet to justify his first-round selection. New England will now shift Strange into a contract year. As expected, Strange will not see his fifth-year option exercised, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports. That

Perhaps the third time will be the charm. On Wednesday, the Bills signed free-agent wide receiver Elijah Moore to a one-year contract with a max value of $5 million, according to ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter. Entering his fifth season, Moore is already on his third team. The second-round pick

Elijah Moore‘s Buffalo visit will produce a deal. The Bills are bringing in the former Jets and Browns wide receiver, Fox Sports’ Jordan Schultz reports. The veteran slot receiver can earn up to $5MM on a one-year deal. Moore, who visited the Bills on Monday, will follow former Chargers starter

Another top NFL Draft prospect revealed that he fell victim to a prank call last Thursday as the NFL continues looking into leaks of draftees’ phone numbers. Defensive end Abdul Carter also received a prank call at the start of the draft, it was revealed Wednesday. Carter’s agent Drew Rosenhaus

The Panthers have now made three first- or second-round wide receiver picks in three years, bringing in Jonathan Mingo, Xavier Legette and Tetairoa McMillan. Although McMillan’s arrival can be viewed as a sign of early concern regarding Legette, Bryce Young made a push to have the Arizona WR prospect routed

Another team with two fifth-year option decisions to make before Thursday’s deadline, the Packers will make one by deciding to extend a contract to 2026. They are picking up Devonte Wyatt‘s fifth-year option, per Fox Sports’ Jordan Schultz. The young defensive tackle will lock in $12.94MM guaranteed for 2026 as

Pockets of New York Jets fans previously wondered if the club not selecting a quarterback during the 2025 NFL Draft showed that 2024 fifth-round pick Jordan Travis could be part of the team’s active roster later this year.  That won’t be the case, as Travis confirmed on Wednesday that he’s

Jordan Travis will not end up continuing as a Jets reserve quarterback into a second season. He has informed the team of an intention to retire. The former Florida State quarterback, who suffered a gruesome ankle injury in November 2023, will land on the Jets’ reserve/retired list. Chosen in last

The New York Giants leapfrogged the Los Angeles Rams in the 2025 NFL Draft on April 24 to make Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart the 25th overall pick.  Later, the Cleveland Browns grabbed Oregon signal-caller Dillon Gabriel at pick No. 94 before the Browns generated headlines by trading up to select Colorado’s Shedeur

One of the safest fifth-year option bets this year, the Ravens are indeed exercising Kyle Hamilton‘s. This will push the All-Pro safety’s contract through 2026. Baltimore’s other 2022 first-round standout, however, will not see his deal extended beyond 2025. The Ravens declined center Tyler Linderbaum‘s option. The Ravens are interested

Long before Bruce Arians guided the 2020 Tampa Bay Buccaneers to a Super Bowl championship, he served as the offensive coordinator and interim head coach for the 2012 Indianapolis Colts team that had rookie Andrew Luck as its starting quarterback.  Following Shedeur Sanders’ slide to the fifth round of the

Nearly two years ago, the Buccaneers promoted John Spytek to assistant general manager. With Spytek parlaying that climb to a GM job (with the Raiders), the Bucs are moving another longtime staffer into that role. Rob McCartney will rise to an assistant GM spot in Tampa, according to Insidetheleague.com’s Neil

New England Patriots tight end Austin Hooper played under first-year New England head coach Mike Vrabel when the two were employed by the Tennessee Titans during the 2022 season.  While speaking with reporters on Tuesday, Hooper addressed what his teammates can expect to see and hear from Vrabel over the next

The Rams and Matthew Stafford agreed on another reworked deal earlier this year, ending the trade storyline and ensuring the talented quarterback would return for a fifth season in Los Angeles. Some details on the QB’s contract adjustment have finally surfaced. Stafford is still tied to a $40MM-per-year deal, but

Some argued throughout April that a New England Patriots team in need of pass protection should make Missouri offensive tackle Armand Membou the fourth overall pick of the 2025 NFL Draft over LSU offensive tackle Will Campbell. This is largely because Campbell’s arm length suggests he’ll never become an elite left

The Jaguars will continue the string of teams declining fifth-year options on off-ball linebackers. As the NFL’s option formula still groups all linebackers together, Devin Lloyd will become the latest ILB to see his not exercised. Lloyd is now in a contract year, ESPN.com’s Jeremy Fowler confirms. He would have

The Cleveland Browns shocked the football community when they used the 2025 NFL Draft to add rookie quarterbacks Dillon Gabriel (third round, pick No. 94) and Shedeur Sanders (fifth round, pick No. 144) to a room already occupied by veteran Joe Flacco and 2022 first-round selection Kenny Pickett.  One unnamed

The Eagles will keep their all-Georgia defensive tackle duo together beyond 2025. They will pick up Jordan Davis‘ fifth-year option, according to Fox Sports’ Jordan Schultz, ensuring he and Jalen Carter will remain under contract through 2026. Davis has proven to be an important piece for the Eagles, though his

Happy 28th birthday to Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard!  His birthday present is the addition of the top-overall pick in the NFL Draft — quarterback Cam Ward. Pollard had another strong individual season in his first year with the Titans, eclipsing 1,000 rushing yards for the third-straight season. Which
