Whether or not 41-year-old quarterback Aaron Rodgers will turn the clock back to his best days as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers later this year will be one of the most-discussed NFL-related topics of the summer.  During a recent chat with Ryan Gaydos of Fox News Digital, one-time NFL

Aaron Rodgers has revealed very little about the woman he says he married at some point this year, and even the quarterback’s own family has reportedly questioned whether he is telling the truth. Rodgers has been spotted wearing a band on his left ring finger this offseason. When asked about

The Cleveland Browns could’ve made Colorado two-way star Travis Hunter or pass-rusher Abdul Carter the second selection of the 2025 NFL Draft.  Cleveland instead traded that asset along with fourth-round (No. 104) and sixth-round choices (No. 200) to the Jacksonville Jaguars for the No. 5 overall pick, a second-round selection (No.

Andrew Thomas‘ injury trouble has hamstrung the Giants’ offensive line over the past two seasons. Since signing a big-ticket extension in summer 2023, Thomas has missed 18 games.

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen doesn’t seem to be growing complacent after winning the 2024 NFL MVP award. Allen, 29, has yet to win a Super Bowl in seven seasons with the Bills. In a story published by Sports Illustrated’s Liam McKeone on Tuesday, he said that’s fueling him after

The Tyreek Hill-Noah Lyles race will not happen, after all, this year. The Olympic 100-meter champion and three-time 200-meter world champion said the event was slated to take place this coming weekend in Times Square, a setup that would have come not long after a boxing event in the same
