Second-year quarterback Jayden Daniels keeps the Washington Commanders’ Super Bowl window open heading into the 2025 season.  In a story published Tuesday, ESPN analytics expert Aaron Schatz ranked the Commanders No. 3 in talent under 25. Last season, they were No. 18. Daniels is a big reason for the improvement. 

With a new NFL season comes another contract dispute between Jerry Jones and one of the Dallas Cowboys‘ star players. In 2019, it was running back Ezekiel Elliott. Then there was quarterback Dak Prescott and wide receiver CeeDee Lamb in 2024, and now it’s defensive end Micah Parsons in 2025.

The progression of rookie RB Ashton Jeanty in training camp —especially the past two days — is opening the eyes of head coach Pete Carroll. To say Carroll is excited by having Jeanty on his team is an understatement, given the hype since he was drafted out of Boise State.

The Dallas Cowboys remain one of the most popular franchises in sports despite their recent lack of success, but longtime analyst Michael Wilbon thinks it is time for ESPN to focus elsewhere. During Monday’s edition of “Pardon the Interruption,” Wilbon was critical of Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and ESPN’s commitment

The Baltimore Ravens were expected to come into the 2025 season with one of the better one-two punches at tight end in the league, but that plan has hit a bump in the road. It’s not a catastrophic bump and both the player and the Ravens are likely to recover,

There have been a couple of different theories floated about why the Las Vegas Raiders made the shocking decision to cut star defensive tackle Christian Wilkins, but head coach Pete Carroll has no interest in sharing the real motive. The Raiders released Wilkins on Thursday, which was barely a year

Matt LaFleur is earning the ire of several of his Green Bay Packers players early in training camp.  On Tuesday, LaFleur punished offensive tackle Rasheed Walker for his altercation with defensive end Kingsley Enagbare.  However, the most interesting interaction of the day came between LaFleur and tight end Tucker Kraft. Per

Shortly after the Cleveland Browns traded up in the fifth round of the 2025 draft to take Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders with pick No. 144, multiple members of the NFL community strongly suggested that Browns owner Jimmy Haslam essentially forced Sanders on general manager Andrew Berry and head coach Kevin Stefanski. The fact that

The 2024 offseason expanded the $30M-per-year wide receiver club to six members. D.K. Metcalf, Ja’Marr Chase and Garrett Wilson have taken it to nine this year. Terry McLaurin is undoubtedly pushing to bump that number to 10, after seeing 2019 Day 2 classmates Metcalf and A.J. Brown land among that

Even as a new regime took over, the Jets completed lucrative extensions for Garrett Wilson and Sauce Gardner this month. Gardner’s came at a market-setting rate. The team is committed to the duo as pillars for the Aaron Glenn-Darren Mougey foundation. The Jets’ 5-12 2024 season notwithstanding, the team has

While the Philadelphia Eagles, Detroit Lions and Washington Commanders have garnered a lot of attention lately, there is one NFC team that has quietly been flying under the radar. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers lost a one-score game to the Lions in the divisional round in 2023 and followed that up

Prior to last season, ESPN’s Aaron Schatz ranked the Philadelphia Eagles 29th in terms of quality players under the age of 25.

With Courtland Sutton now attached to a lucrative new deal, the Broncos front office will shift focus to other veterans. While the likes of Nik Bonitto and Zach Allen have been attached to potential Denver extensions, there’s at least one veteran who will likely play out the 2025 campaign as

The Dallas Cowboys are claiming to be the victim of Trevon Diggs’ decision to rehab on his own rather than join the team for OTAs at the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas. The Cowboys promptly fined Diggs $500K for missing OTAs this spring. The star cornerback was

Since Christian Wilkins was cut by the Raiders last week, we’ve heard a handful of explanations for the sudden divorce.

Trey Hendrickson’s showdown with the Bengals took another turn this evening, as the star pass rusher is transforming his holdout into a hold-in.

Quarterback Arch Manning has attempted just 95 passes in two seasons with the Texas Longhorns but is already being linked to NFL teams. Last week, Fox Sports’ Colin Cowherd said Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam loves the 21-year-old QB. The host added he may use him to entice former Alabama

Tristan Wirfs is expected to miss early-season time due to an injury suffered in 2024. Todd Bowles had said at minicamp Wirfs’ knee brace was precautionary, and the standout tackle was to be ready for training camp.

What would be a good nickname for Jacksonville Jaguars rookie cornerback/wide receiver Travis Hunter?  The second pick of the 2025 NFL Draft already has one in mind. He drew inspiration from a mythical creature. “It’s the unicorn,” the former Colorado Buffaloes star told CBS Sports’ Pete Prisco Tuesday.  That’s not

The Cowboys’ pattern of delaying big-ticket extensions is on display through the Micah Parsons talks, and the sides are not believed to be progressing. These negotiations also may not be animosity-free. While Dallas took considerable heat for waiting on the CeeDee Lamb and Dak Prescott extensions — the latter not

Pockets of New York Giants fans likely feared the worst when they learned that second-year wide receiver Malik Nabers exited Tuesday’s training-camp practice with an apparent shoulder injury.  NFL Network insiders Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo later reported that Nabers “appears to be OK.” On Tuesday afternoon, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox

It remains to be seen when Trevon Diggs will be available to the Cowboys in 2025. Positive strides have been made in his recovery, though, and the sixth-year corner does not anticipate a long stretch of missed games to begin the campaign. Diggs has yet to receive clearance as he works

Will Hernandez saw his 2024 campaign come to an end in Week 5. The veteran guard is now in position to continue his career, however.

A shoulder injury sidelined Nate Herbig for the entire 2024 campaign. Instead of returning to action this season, the veteran offensive lineman has ended his career.

Happy 32nd birthday to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Dak Prescott! Dak Prescott has been statistically productive as quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys, but he knows that isn’t nearly enough to make Cowboys fans happy.  Prescott is heading into his 10th NFL season and while he’s helped lead the Cowboys to

Jaxson Dart endured the kind of rough start to New York Giants training camp practices that could be expected from any rookie quarterback.

Treylon Burks‘ tenure in Tennessee is on track to come to an end. In the wake of his latest injury, the former first-rounder has been waived. This move has come with an injury designation, which comes as no surprise given the broken collarbone Burks recently suffered in training camp. Injuries

Las Vegas Raiders WR Dont’e Thornton Jr. is opening eyes at training camp, including QB Geno Smith, who appears to be trusting the rookie. Maybe that is the reason why general manager John Spytek has not looked for outside help at the position.  And just maybe he got a steal
