By Ely Allen | at July 17, 2026 6:26 pm Friday’s minor transactions from around the NFL: New England Patriots San Francisco 49ers Thomas didn’t play in 2025, only spending two weeks on the Colts’ practice squad. In 2024, the former Rams sixth-round pick played eight games for the Patriots,

Regardless of the existence of what have been referred to as “absolutely exhausting” trade rumors, there has been zero legitimate sign that either the Las Vegas Raiders or star pass-rusher Maxx Crosby wants to end their working relationship amid the NFL’s ongoing summer break.   On Friday, Crosby seemed to confirm his intentions

Earlier this month, Brady Christensen received full medical clearance upon completing his rehab from a torn Achilles. The veteran offensive lineman has quickly managed to line up his next deal. The Panthers announced on Friday that Christensen has been re-signed. The sixth-year veteran has spent his entire career in Carolina, and that

Five-time Pro Bowl running back Alvin Kamara has spent his entire nine-year career with the New Orleans Saints, but there was speculation his time in the Big Easy was over.  But with Kamara entering the final season of his two-year, $24.5 million contract, Nick Underhill of New Orleans.Football reported he and the

The Titans moved on from a pair of starting offensive linemen this offseason, leaving two major holes in front of second-year quarterback Cam Ward. Fortunately, it sounds like the unit is quickly taking shape. As Jim Wyatt of the team’s website writes, Austin Schlottmann has the “upper hand” for the team’s starting

It’s make or break time for the Detroit Lions, head coach Dan Campbell included. Sure, this franchise looks nothing like it did, say, five years ago. It’s strong, vibrant and a real contender in the NFL. But, if this team expects to get to the Super Bowl for the first

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

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

The Cowboys have seen a handful of players spend seasons on a franchise tag over the past several years. George Pickens will follow suit, as today’s deadline for tagged players to sign extensions has now passed. The other three players to receive tags — Breece Hall, Kyle Pitts and Daniel

The summer months are almost over. Training camps are set to open across the NFL as teams start to prepare for the upcoming season and begin their quest to reach Super Bowl LXI. The battle to see who raises the Lombardi Trophy at the season’s end is almost set to

4:12pm: The Saints and Kamara have finalized the reworked deal, according to NFL.com’s Mike Garafolo and Ian Rapoport. “Alvin’s goal, and the team’s goal, was for him to remain with the and retire a Saint,” the RB’s agent, Brad Cicala, said. Although precise terms are still not known, though The

Back in late May, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes acknowledged that he was “still a long ways away” from being cleared to play in Kansas City’s season-opening “Monday Night Football” home game versus the rival Denver Broncos on Sept. 14.  Mahomes spent the offseason program continuing his recovery from the torn ACL and torn LCL he suffered this

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

It’s hard to believe, but the NFL season is less than two months away. That’s the regular season. The preseason is just about one month from now. So, it’s crunch time for teams, such as the Dallas Cowboys, to get their lineups fully set. While most of the big and

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

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? The clock is ticking until the start of the season. There are really just about two months to go before the Steelers

As part of their efforts to upgrade their offensive line, the Bengals invested a first-round pick in Amarius Mims during the 2024 draft. The early returns on that move have been encouraging. Mims was viewed as a raw prospect coming out of college, but he has started 30 of his 32 appearances

It appears former defensive lineman Aaron Donald wasn’t just getting in a quick lift when he recently set foot in the Los Angeles Rams‘ facility. A report shared that Donald — who last played in 2023 — worked out at the team’s building last week. ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter revealed

Aaron Donald and the Rams remain open to a reunion. Another step indicating that will indeed happen in the near future recently took place. Donald took part in a workout with the Rams on Friday, as first reported by TMZ (and confirmed by USA Today’s Tyler Dragon). This latest development comes

Dak Prescott is one of those quarterbacks who’s always had flashes of greatness, but the timing was never quite right, and something was always off. His injuries haven’t helped, but aside from that, Prescott is the kind of Dallas Cowboys player who seems like he could win the MVP award

By Adam La Rose | at July 13, 2026 2:05 pm Here is a rundown of PFR’s latest originals: Sam Robinson kicked off the 2026 Offseason in Review series by breaking down the Titans‘ moves. Tennessee has a new head coach (Robert Saleh) in place, along with several free agent additions.

Jaxson Dart had a more than respectable rookie season with the New York Giants, especially considering that he wasn’t surrounded with the most elite offense. Dart finished his 2025-26 rookie season notching 2,272 yards, 15 touchdowns and five interceptions, garnering 67.9 overall for his PFF grade. Those are very encouraging figures, making

For much of his NFL career, Stefon Diggs has operated as his team’s No. 1 receiver. That was certainly the case in 2025, but the veteran free agent is eyeing a deal which will make him the No. 2 option with his next employer. In a video posted to his YouTube channel,

It’s that nerve-wracking time in the NFL offseason where hopes are high but without anything really tangible yet. The Dallas Cowboys and owner and general manager Jerry Jones have made quite a few changes during the NFL offseason, and now, it’s almost time to see if those changes take this

Last Sunday, we took a look at some under-the-radar Patriots on the offensive side of the ball who were fighting for roster spots but who also showed potential to be impact players in New England. The Patriots have a history of uncovering such diamonds in the rough, with Rob Ninkovich

The Chicago Bears and Caleb Williams are going into year three together, and you could say this is the sweet spot. Williams absolutely bloomed under new head coach Ben Johnson during the 2025-26 season, and there’s no reason to think he’ll take a step backwards. The NFL is taking notice.

Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, who is under club control through the 2027 season, recently expressed his desire to remain in Baltimore for the long haul. But this offseason has produced no public news of tangible progress on that front, and that reality, combined with a prior report that Jackson will

Multiple reports shared throughout the summer have indicated that veteran Deshaun Watson remains the favorite to win the Cleveland Browns‘ Week 1 starting quarterback job over second-year pro Shedeur Sanders. Long before Watson found himself trying to resurrect his career, his 2023 campaign ended prematurely because of a shoulder injury. During the latest edition

The Seattle Seahawks are finally being sold, and the price will set a new record for a sports franchise. A group led by San Francisco 49ers limited partner Vinod Khosla has reached an agreement to purchase the Seahawks, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter and Seth Wickersham.  The reported purchase price

Colts running back Jonathan Taylor ranks second in the NFL with 626 rushing attempts since 2024, as well as a snap share over 80%. He also led the league with 323 carries and took a whopping 46% of his team’s offensive touches last year. Taylor’s workload has led to elite

Happy 45th birthday to seven-time Pro Bowler, two-time All-Pro and member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2024, Andre Johnson! Before DeAndre Hopkins was making ridiculous catches and posting absurd numbers for the Houston Texans, there was Andre Johnson. The wide receiver was taken with the third-overall

Although free agent cornerback Terrion Arnold has been awaiting trial since a late-June arrest on felony kidnapping and armed robbery charges, teams are showing interest in the former Lion. During a hearing in a Florida court on Friday, agent Nicole Lynn testified that the Texans, Colts, Jets and Seahawks contacted

Ever since the Cleveland Browns drafted quarterback Shedeur Sanders last year, the media just won’t leave this guy alone. But, that’s for good reason, because Sanders is quite the story. Sanders was selected during the fifth round of the NFL draft with the Browns’ No. 144 overall pick. That was

The NFL’s salary cap climbed to $301.2MM this offseason. The league also saw a team string together back-to-back playoff berths with record-setting dead money sums on its payroll. With the cap rising by more than $20MM once again and the Broncos navigating the Russell Wilson dead money abyss to 10-

Even though he’s still dealing with some serious legal issues, Terrion Arnold might not be a free agent for much longer. The former Detroit Lions first-round pick has drawn some attention since his release, according to his agent. Nicole Lynn, his agent, revealed that four teams have inquired about Arnold,

Largely out of nowhere, Cleveland Browns second-year quarterback Shedeur Sanders became the subject of curious trade rumors not long after it was reported in June that he had closed the gap in the competition for the team’s starting job with veteran Deshaun Watson. Multiple Browns reporters have since poured cold water over the idea that Sanders will

The Dolphins set an unfortunate record this offseason following the release of Tua Tagovailoa. The move left the franchise with a $55.4MM dead cap hit, which exceeded the previous record held by the Broncos and Russell Wilson ($53MM). Of course, as Miami is undergoing a complete teardown, they’re not overly

The Denver Broncos had one of the NFL’s best defenses in 2025, and it nearly carried them to a Super Bowl. They also nearly set the NFL single-season record for most sacks, falling just four shy of the mark. Defensive lineman Zach Allen expects them to get it this season.

Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones has cemented himself as one of the greatest players in franchise history during his 10-year career. The seven-time Pro Bowler and six-time All-Pro is under contract for three more seasons, but this could be his last year as a Chief if he doesn’t restructure his

Dallas Cowboys defensive tackle Quinnen Williams wants to rebound this upcoming season. Those around the league are confident he will.  ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler published his top-10 NFL defensive tackles on Thursday morning, featuring opinions from coaches, executives and scouts. Fowler listed Williams No. 6 at his position after placing him at

In what would have been a wild turn of events, Broncos head coach Sean Payton considered giving up his job to longtime friend Bill Belichick in 2024, Seth Wickersham of ESPN reports. It would have been a temporary demotion for Payton, who would have run the offense until Belichick broke

Reports throughout the spring suggested that 2024 first-round draft pick J.J. McCarthy could ask the Minnesota Vikings for a trade if free-agency signing Kyler Murray wins the competition for the team’s starting quarterback job later this summer.  Meanwhile, veteran Carson Wentz somewhat surprisingly re-signed with the Vikings this past March. On Wednesday, Vikings reporter

By Ben Levine | at July 8, 2026 6:39 pm Today’s minor moves: New York Giants Rico Payton was waived by the Giants yesterday but apparently passed through and has now landed on injured reserve, meaning he won’t be able to suit up for New York during the 2026 campaign.

Debates about whether quarterback Tom Brady or head coach Bill Belichick was more “responsible” for the success the New England Patriots enjoyed during their dynastic run over the first two decades of the 2000s give certain media personalities something to discuss during what is often seen as a quiet time of the

Jacksonville was not a popular pick to contend for a playoff spot in 2025, head coach Liam Coen‘s first year at the helm. Vegas set the Jaguars’ preseason over/under win total at 7.5, but the club smashed expectations during a 13-4 campaign. The offensive-minded Coen was the runner-up to the

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk is continuing his standoff with the team. The former Arizona State wideout is still on the 49ers’ “left squad list,” meaning the team can essentially stash him without penalty or paying him. He would have to apply for reinstatement to collect his salary and

In recent weeks, Brandon Aiyuk‘s social media posts have made for regular talking points regarding his future. The disgruntled 49ers wideout took to Instagram once again on Tuesday. Today marks the one-year anniversary of San Francisco voiding Aiyuk’s guarantees. It was not learned until much later that the team did so,

Just a couple of years ago, the Minnesota Vikings found plenty of success with Sam Darnold at the helm. Somewhat surprisingly, the former No. 3 pick helped them win 14 games, and while he fell flat in the biggest game of the season, that was enough to get him a

The Buccaneers are not close to an extension agreement with Vita Vea. The same is also true of Tampa Bay’s other, more noteworthy, summer contract priority. The 2026 offseason has long been understood to be the time for Baker Mayfield to negotiate a new deal. Tampa Bay’s three-year starting quarterback has one season remaining
