Steelers outside linebacker Nick Herbig came up as a potential trade candidate before the draft, but general manager Omar Khan downplayed the possibility of a deal. Herbig remains on the roster almost a month later, and it does not appear that will change. He is expected to log even more

The Las Vegas Raiders are coming up on what will hopefully be a franchise-changing season, headed up by veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins and rookie Fernando Mendoza as their signal-calling unit. But who will be QB1 for the majority of the season? That’s the big question going forward. While Cousins, 37,

The Patriots released wide receiver Stefon Diggs in early March, but he may not have played his last down in their uniform. Still a free agent two months later, Diggs “would love” to re-sign with the Patriots, per Albert Breer of SI.com While Breer is also of the belief the

The New England Patriots rolled the dice on Stefon Diggs last offseason, signing him despite coming off a major knee injury. For better or worse, the former Buffalo Bills star had a decent campaign in Foxborough, but that wasn’t enough to keep him around. Now, after being acquitted of his assault

The Broncos snapped the Chiefs’ streak of nine consecutive AFC West titles last season, going 14-3 and reaching the AFC Championship Game.

For an article published on Thursday morning, New York Giants reporter Dan Duggan of The Athletic suggested that free-agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. would be a Giants player today if head coach John Harbaugh truly wanted to bring Beckham back to what was his NFL home from the 2014 draft through the 2018

Previously, quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr. was staying away from the Indianapolis Colts during springtime workouts after he requested a trade.

John Harbaugh is approaching his first season with the New York Giants, and he’s been busy doing everything in his power to put the pieces together to turn this franchise around. While the Giants have a strong quarterback in Jaxson Dart, they also had a 4-13 record in the 2025

The Lions have overhauled their offensive line in the last two years, with only one of their 2024 starters – tackle Penei Sewell – still on the team. In 2025, center Frank Ragnow retired and right guard Kevin Zeitler left in free agency. Detroit moved Graham Glasgow to center and

Multiple reports surfaced during the ongoing offseason suggesting that quarterback Jalen Hurts was “the source of much internal frustration” for at least some people within the Philadelphia Eagles during the 2025 campaign.  Coming off the Eagles’ wild-card playoff loss to the San Francisco 49ers, former Green Bay Packers quarterbacks coach Sean Mannion is now serving as

Jonathan Greenard was productive during his first Vikings season and remained a full-time starter in 2025. His Minnesota tenure came to an expected end during the draft, however, with a trade to the Eagles (and subsequent extension) being worked out.

However, there was one major absence from the team that had just won its first national championship in program history. Heisman Trophy winner Fernando Mendoza chose to skip the trip,

David Njoku recently visited the Chargers. That summit clearly went well, as a contract agreement is now in place between Los Angeles and the veteran tight end. Team and player have finalized a one-year deal, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. He adds this pact has a maximum value of $8MM.

The New England Patriots are trying their best to move on and shut down the outside noise. Head coach Mike Vrabel is tangled up in a huge scandal regarding an alleged relationship with former NFL insider Dianna Russini, with new evidence surfacing almost daily.

Antonio Hamilton made 15 appearances with the Commanders in 2025. The veteran cornerback will again be in position to play for Washington this season.

It feels like the worst-kept secret in the NFL that the Philadelphia Eagles are planning to trade wide receiver A.J. Brown to the New England Patriots.  The Eagles are expected to deal Brown to the Patriots on or after June 1 to avoid a major cap hit. Per Over the Cap, Philadelphia

The media circus around Aaron Rodgers during the offseason has always been justifiable for years.

Rodgers will be

The Browns will deploy their first pick in this year’s draft, Spencer Fano, at left tackle, which officially locks offseason trade acquisition Tytus Howard into the right tackle job, as Zac Jackson of The Athletic confirms.

For months, the New England Patriots have been tangled up in trade rumors for A.J. Brown.

The Vikings entered the 2025 season hoping to smoothly transition to J.J. McCarthy as their long-term starting quarterback. That never came to pass. The former No. 10 pick completed just 57.6% of his passes with more interceptions (12) than touchdowns (11). He also missed time due to three different injuries

It sounds like

A report from Thursday morning revealed that quarterback Aaron Rodgers would soon be visiting the Pittsburgh Steelers and “will sign with the team this weekend.”  However, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport (h/t Kevin Patra) later reported that “a deal is not done and that caution remains until a pact is signed” between Rodgers

Interested in joining the fifth team of his career, free agent quarterback Russell Wilson visited the Jets last week. The 14-year veteran is now mulling an offer from Gang Green, he revealed to Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post. “It was great,” Wilson said of his Jets meeting. “They

Recent reports have suggested that people within the Cleveland Browns want fans of the team to realize that controversial veteran Deshaun Watson is on track to be named the club’s 2026 Week 1 starting quarterback over Shedeur Sanders.

If the Philadelphia Eagles end up trading A.J. Brown, most are expecting he will be sent to the New England Patriots. It’s New England who has been rumored to be the front-runner in the Brown sweepstakes for months.  However, until a deal has actually been consummated, anything can happen. So

Over three months after the Vikings fired general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, they have identified their first external candidate to replace him.
