If Shedeur Sanders ended up with the Pittsburgh Steelers, something wild would have to happen in the 2025 NFL Draft. Sanders is thought by many to be a potential top five pick, and the Steelers currently hold the No. 21 pick in the first round. If Sanders fell to the

One unnamed “high-ranking NFC personnel man” recently suggested that the San Francisco 49ers should “play it out as long as possible without paying” quarterback Brock Purdy a long-term extension.

In his latest mock draft, ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr. has Milroe going in the second round (pick No. 34) to the New York Giants, which could be a decent destination for him. The Giants signed QBs Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston in free agency, so the 22-year-old wouldn’t need to

Troy Reeder will remain with the Rams for another season. The veteran linebacker was re-signed on Thursday, per a team announcement. Reeder has spent five of his six seasons with the Rams; the lone exception came in 2022 when he played for the Chargers. The 30-year-old has played on one-year-deals since

The Athletic’s Austin Mock argued Thursday that the Las Vegas Raiders making Boise State’s Ashton Jeanty the sixth overall pick of the 2025 NFL Draft “would be a mistake” since the team could strengthen a premium position with that asset instead.  In his latest mock draft on Thursday, Raiders insider

Adding a rookie quarterback is certainly on the table for the Giants; with Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston on the books, though, the team has increasingly been seen as situated to avoid a signal-caller with the No. 3 pick. Signs continue to point in that direction. Provided the Titans follow through with selecting Cam

To the surprise of some, Aaron Rodgers did not announce during Wednesday’s event hosted by ESPN personality Pat McAfee at PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh that he had signed a contract to become the next starting quarterback of the Pittsburgh Steelers.  On Thursday, well-known NFL insider Josina Anderson hinted that some

T.J. Watt is one of several edge rushers still in line for a new contract this offseason. The position’s market has jumped thanks to Maxx Crosby and Myles Garrett working out raises with their respective teams, and that could push the value Watt’s next Steelers pact upward. One season remains on the former Defensive Player

For an ESPN story published on April 8, an unnamed NFC team executive said he couldn’t “see” a different team signing Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson assuming the Browns officially part ways with Watson in 2026.  As has become somewhat of a tradition this spring, Watson seemingly used Instagram to respond to that piece

If quarterback Justin Fields held a grudge toward the Pittsburgh Steelers, that would be understandable.  Fields (who has since signed a two-year, $40M deal with the New York Jets) went 4-2 in six starts with the Steelers in 2024 before Russell Wilson recovered from a calf injury and assumed the

The market for DeMarcus Walker is apparently heating up. ESPN’s Peter Schrager reported yesterday that the veteran pass rusher was meeting with the Giants.
