Every year there is a player — usually a quarterback — that is one of the most polarizing players in their NFL Draft class. It is usually accompanied by anonymous sources or executives criticizing their maturity, mental toughness, personality, leadership or pretty much anything that is not related to their

It’s a bit surprising that veteran tight end Tyler Conklin remains unsigned at this point in free agency. The sure-handed 29-year-old has established himself as a dependable, though not electric, tight end over his seven-year career.

Establishing a clear M.O. during the Andy Reid-Steve Spagnuolo years, the Chiefs have preferred to make their key cornerbacks one-contract players.

The NFL is a pressure cooker and that’s true whether you’re a quarterback or a long snapper. There is something about being the franchise quarterback of a team that takes that pressure and dials it up to 100, however. You’re the face of the franchise, after all. When things go

The Atlanta Falcons are still holding out hope that they will be able to trade Kirk Cousins at some point, and they may have one final opportunity to do so next month. Cousins signed a four-year, $180M deal with the Falcons last offseason. The veteran quarterback was due a $10M

For someone as purportedly enlightened as free-agent quarterback Aaron Rodgers, he should listen to what the universe is telling him.
