The Kansas City Chiefs contract extension with star guard Trey Smith on Tuesday was significant for two reasons. From a Chiefs perspective, it locks in a key member of their offensive line and keeps a key protector of Patrick Mahomes in place for the foreseeable future. It is also significant

As rookies begin reporting to NFL training camps, most of the league’s 2025 second-round picks remain unsigned. On Tuesday, rookies from six teams — Baltimore Ravens, Buffalo Bills, Miami Dolphins, New York Giants, San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks — reported, joining Los Angeles Chargers rookies, who opened camp on

While a long list of second-round picks remain unsigned, there were only two first-round selections who had yet to sign their rookie pacts. One of those unsigned first rounders is Shemar Stewart, whose standoff with the Bengals has been extensively covered. The other was Broncos defensive back Jahdae Barron, but

One of the certainties for the Green Bay Packers heading into the 2025 season is that the role of starting running back will go to Josh Jacobs. Barring injury, Jacobs will be one of the main pieces of the puzzle for Matt LaFleur’s offense and he very well may be

One minor move to pass along: Buffalo Bills The Bills made a bit of an unexpected move today when they placed rookie defensive end Landon Jackson on the physically unable to perform list. While the nature of the injury hasn’t been reported, a source told Ryan O’Halloran of The Buffalo News

The move seems smart for the Chiefs, who tied for the league’s fourth-most pressures allowed (163) last season, per Pro Football Reference.  The 26-year-old O-lineman earned his first Pro Bowl selection last season after allowing no sacks on 708 pass-block snaps in 17 regular-season games, per Pro Football Focus.

Despite months of trade speculation, Mark Andrews remains on the Ravens roster and is expected to stick with the squad for the 2025 season. While the team held on to their long-time star tight end, the front office was clearly open to making a trade. As Jeff Zrebiec of The

As Kyle Pitts gets ready for the 2025 NFL season, the once hyped tight end enters a defining year for his young career. Pitts is set to make $10.88 million, but as of now he has yet to secure a long-term deal with the Atlanta Falcons. According to the Atlanta

Earlier this decade, Kyle Pitts looked like a candidate to be the player who dragged the tight end market past $20MM per year. With Trey McBride and George Kittle not getting there with their respective extensions this offseason, a 2023 or ’24 draftee likely becomes the lead candidate. Pitts has

Nobody has more receptions or receiving yards in Washington Commanders history than three-time Super Bowl champion and Pro Football Hall-of-Famer Art Monk. Now, no Commander will ever wear his No. 81 on their jersey ever again. The Commanders announced they’ll be retiring Monk’s 81 in a ceremony on Nov 2

Failing to develop a reliable Terry McLaurin sidekick for the first six years of the standout wide receiver’s career, the Commanders took on Deebo Samuel‘s salary in their most notable attempt to resolve the issue. As Samuel readies for training camp, Washington appears unlikely — based on how things are

T.J. Watt of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Trey Hendrickson of the Cincinnati Bengals are two star pass-rushers looking to land lucrative contract extensions before their clubs open training camp later this month. During Tuesday’s edition of the ESPN “Unsportsmanlike” program, NFL insider Adam Schefter explained how the Watt and Hendrickson

Playing for a high-profile franchise in the New York Giants could put even more pressure on beleaguered quarterback Russell Wilson. It could also give Wilson another opportunity to redeem himself. Former New York Knicks star Carmelo Anthony told him to embrace that. “Me and Carmelo we’re talking about this,” Wilson

The wait continues around the NFL for several high-profile edge rush contract situations to be sorted out. In the case of T.J. Watt and the Steelers, it remains to be seen if an extension agreement can be reached before Week 1. Watt has drawn trade interest from suitors, but even though the

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen was named the NFL’s regular-season Most Valuable Player for the first time in his career in 2024.
