Pockets of New York Jets fans previously wondered if the club not selecting a quarterback during the 2025 NFL Draft showed that 2024 fifth-round pick Jordan Travis could be part of the team’s active roster later this year.  That won’t be the case, as Travis confirmed on Wednesday that he’s

Jordan Travis will not end up continuing as a Jets reserve quarterback into a second season. He has informed the team of an intention to retire. The former Florida State quarterback, who suffered a gruesome ankle injury in November 2023, will land on the Jets’ reserve/retired list. Chosen in last

The New York Giants leapfrogged the Los Angeles Rams in the 2025 NFL Draft on April 24 to make Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart the 25th overall pick.  Later, the Cleveland Browns grabbed Oregon signal-caller Dillon Gabriel at pick No. 94 before the Browns generated headlines by trading up to select Colorado’s Shedeur

One of the safest fifth-year option bets this year, the Ravens are indeed exercising Kyle Hamilton‘s. This will push the All-Pro safety’s contract through 2026. Baltimore’s other 2022 first-round standout, however, will not see his deal extended beyond 2025. The Ravens declined center Tyler Linderbaum‘s option. The Ravens are interested

Long before Bruce Arians guided the 2020 Tampa Bay Buccaneers to a Super Bowl championship, he served as the offensive coordinator and interim head coach for the 2012 Indianapolis Colts team that had rookie Andrew Luck as its starting quarterback.  Following Shedeur Sanders’ slide to the fifth round of the

Nearly two years ago, the Buccaneers promoted John Spytek to assistant general manager.

The Rams and Matthew Stafford agreed on another reworked deal earlier this year, ending the trade storyline and ensuring the talented quarterback would return for a fifth season in Los Angeles. Some details on the QB’s contract adjustment have finally surfaced. Stafford is still tied to a $40MM-per-year deal, but

Some argued throughout April that a New England Patriots team in need of pass protection should make Missouri offensive tackle Armand Membou the fourth overall pick of the 2025 NFL Draft over LSU offensive tackle Will Campbell. This is largely because Campbell’s arm length suggests he’ll never become an elite left

The Jaguars will continue the string of teams declining fifth-year options on off-ball linebackers. As the NFL’s option formula still groups all linebackers together, Devin Lloyd will become the latest ILB to see his not exercised. Lloyd is now in a contract year, ESPN.com’s Jeremy Fowler confirms. He would have

The Cleveland Browns shocked the football community when they used the 2025 NFL Draft to add rookie quarterbacks Dillon Gabriel (third round, pick No. 94) and Shedeur Sanders (fifth round, pick No. 144) to a room already occupied by veteran Joe Flacco and 2022 first-round selection Kenny Pickett.  One unnamed

Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders falling to the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft before the Cleveland Browns traded up to select him with pick No. 144 has become one of the most-discussed developments of the offseason.  On Tuesday, league insider Dianna Russini of The Athletic expanded on how Sanders’ predraft actions

While the Jets carried the curse of John Abraham at edge rusher for over a decade, the Falcons also struggled mightily to replace the since-retired pass rusher.

The Philadelphia Eagles had all the answers on their way to winning Super Bowl LIX, but we have a few questions about their 2025 campaign. What’s the deal with Dallas Goedert? Actually he’s on the last year of a four-year, $57M deal that carries an $11M cap hit for 2025.

Los Angeles didn’t have many draft picks, checking in with only six drafted rookies after trading out of the first round, so they’ve added a large contingent of undrafted players to form a 23-man rookie class. Here are the 17 UDFA signings: Wyatt Bowles, OL (Utah State) Malik Dixon-Williams, S

It sure seems as if the Pittsburgh Steelers are waiting on four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers to make his decision. After being cut by the Jets earlier this offseason, the 41-year-old quarterback is in the process of mulling over his NFL future. Retirement is an option, as it has been

A big topic of the offseason in Buffalo has been centered around the contract desires of running back James Cook, who has been vocal about wanting a contract extension to help him get out of his rookie contract. Cook made the decision to skip the team’s voluntary workouts this month,

The San Francisco 49ers already lost one skill player this offseason, sending Deebo Samuel to the Washington Commanders via trade.  But veteran tight end George Kittle isn’t going anywhere, reportedly agreeing to a four-year extension with the Niners to keep him in the Bay Area until 2029.  Which brings us

Rapoport

Bolstering their secondary by choosing Jahdae Barron, the Broncos next turned to what many considered their top need. The team drafted Central Florida running back R.J. Harvey at No. 60 overall. While Harvey is expected to quickly push to the head of a Denver backfield committee, the team was connected

It is a four-year pact, per Kittle. The deal is worth $76.4M in total and includes $40M in guarantees. The latter figure consists of $35M locked in at signing along with $5M in guarantees covering the 2027 campaign. 2025 had represented the final year of Kittle’s contract, but he is

One of the biggest blunders of the 2025 NFL draft was the Sanders brothers not using agents and letting their father Deion advise them. Shilo at least took some steps to remedy that. Shilo Sanders did not get drafted over the weekend. The former Colorado Buffaloes safety said on a

The Chargers’ offseason blueprint included two significant running back investments. The team added Najee Harris on Day 1 of free agency and then used its first-round pick on Omarion Hampton. This represents a more committed effort compared to last year, when two ex-Ravens RBs reunited with OC Greg Roman. J.K.

Retaining Van Ginkel, 29, at that price is a bargain for Minnesota. Last season, Van Ginkel had a career-best year, receiving his first Pro Bowl and All-Pro (second-team) honors and finishing seventh in Associated Press Defensive Player of the Year voting. The 2019 fifth-round pick posted career-highs in sacks (11.5)

The Atlanta Falcons may or may not want an acquiring club to pay “$20M of the $45M worth of guarantees left on” the contract for veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins now that Atlanta has Michael Penix Jr. serving as its full-time starter.  Following the conclusion of the 2025 draft, it seems
