Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald surprised the football-following world by retiring after the 2023 season. It didn’t surprise him, at all. “I knew from when I first walked on the field for training camp that it would be my last year,” Donald told reporters on Wednesday, four days before the

Eagles center Cam Jurgens missed two games with a knee injury before returning Sunday against the Lions. He played 61 of 72 offensive plays before leaving with an undisclosed injury.

Raiders head coach Pete Carroll gave a vote of confidence to quarterback Geno Smith after Monday night’s loss to the Cowboys, but the team has added another option to the depth chart should they want to make a change. The Raiders announced on Wednesday that they have activated Aidan O’Connell

Earlier this year, the Vikings said farewell to Sam Darnold 1.0. Next year, they could be saying hello to Sam Darnold 2.0. There’s already chatter in some circles that, in the 2026 offseason, the Vikings will explore trading for 49ers quarterback Mac Jones. In 2024, after Darnold finished one season

There have been 58 games this season in which a receiver has been thrown at least 12 passes. Only once has that player caught fewer than three passes: Amon-Ra St. Brown on Sunday night in Philadelphia. St. Brown’s stat line of just two catches on 12 targets was ugly, but

The Chiefs fell to 5-5 with Sunday’s loss to the Broncos and all five of those losses have come by one score, which is a stark change from the 2024 season. Kansas City was 11-0 in one-score games in the regular season last year and that change explains why their

Receivers CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens were absent from the Cowboys’ starting lineup on Monday night. The reason seems to be that they were absent for one or more other things in recent days. After the 33-16 win, coach Brian Schottenheimer was asked about the decision to bench the duo

Dak Prescott threw his fourth touchdown pass of the night, giving the Cowboys a 31-9 lead. His 2-yard touchdown throw to Ryan Flournoy came with 6:19 remaining in the third quarter. It is the 13th time in his career that Prescott has thrown at least four touchdown passes in a

Ravens tight end Mark Andrews became the franchise’s all-time leader in receiving yards with his first catch against the Browns on Sunday, but his biggest impact on the game didn’t come through the air. With the score tied 16-16 with just over two minutes to play, Andrews was called on

With 1:51 to play on Sunday night in Philadelphia, the Lions had a chance to force an Eagles punt and potentially score a late touchdown, in a 16-9 game. Detroit made the stop. Until the Men in Black (and White) got involved, flagging Detroit cornerback Rock Ya-Sin for interfering with

Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce set the franchise’s record for most total touchdowns Sunday. He scored a fourth-quarter touchdown in the fourth quarter, catching a 21-yard pass from Patrick Mahomes.

The UFC’s annual November stops in New York City have always been special. Saturday night’s card at Madison Square Garden was no exception to the rule. UFC 322 was easily one of the best MMA cards of the year. It might have even been the best, flat out. The main

On Friday night, North Carolina coach Bill Belichick capped his statement regarding a lack of interest in a level of football this is no longer interested in him by saying, “We’re onto Wake Forest.” Wake Forest was ready. The Demon Deacons beat the Tar Heels on Saturday, 28-12. The home

The Chiefs have won the AFC West for nine consecutive years, but the first-place Broncos are currently the betting favorites to win the division. That could change on Sunday. Right now, the 8-2 Broncos’ odds to win the AFC West are +120. The 5-4 Chiefs are just behind them in

On Monday, the Giants fired coach Brian Daboll. On Tuesday, North Carolina coach Bill Belichick didn’t conclusively slam the door on the possibility of pursuing the job.

Jameis Winston was the third-string quarterback for the Giants for the first 10 weeks of the season and there’s no guarantees that the 11-year veteran will keep finding jobs in the NFL, but he said on Wednesday that he “never thought about” the possibility that he’d played his final game.

The frustrations continue for Eagles receiver A.J. Brown. And those frustrations continue to manifest themselves in various ways. On Tuesday night, Brown said during a Twitch stream, “If you got me on fantasy, man, get rid of me.” On Wednesday, he declined to apologize for the comments he made in

On Sunday, Commanders defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw apparently was saved from an ejection because of teammate Daron Payne’s ejection.

While the Bengals have lost three of the four games Joe Flacco has started for them, the team’s offense has been humming with the 40-year-old quarterback. Having returned to practice on Monday, starting quarterback Joe Burrow shared his positive impressions of Flacco since the veteran arrived just over a month

Taurean York has the instincts of a veteran linebacker and the movement skills to capitalize. However, the 5’10”, 227-pound defender doesn’t have the ideal size or length for the position, thus significantly hindering his draft stock. York went to Texas A&M as a 3-star recruit and became an immediate starter

The Eagles won their third consecutive game but in less-than-impressive fashion. They held off the Packers 10-7 in a Monday Night Football game that didn’t live up to its billing. Philadelphia improved to 7-2, while Green Bay fell to 5-3-1. Neither team reached 300 yards of offense as the teams

Tyreak Sapp is one of those “strong as a bull” type of edge prospects, combining size—he’s listed at 6’2.5″, 272 pounds—and heavy hands to be a good run defender at the next level. He’s limited as a pass-rusher, though. Sapp went to Florida as a 4-star recruit in the 2021

Tim Keenan III is exactly what NFL teams are looking for in a nose tackle. Listed at 6’2″, 320 pounds, he has a short-but-stout build. He is nearly impossible to move against the run and plugs gaps even when double-teamed. However, the Alabama defensive lineman doesn’t offer much as a

Commanders defensive tackle Daron Payne will pay a price for punching Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown on Sunday. The NFL announced today that Payne will be suspended without pay for one game. “During the second quarter, Payne was disqualified for striking Detroit’s Amon-Ra St. Brown, a violation of Rule

R Mason Thomas is a twitched-up pass rusher who combines athleticism, physicality and scrappiness to be very good at turning speed-to-power and getting to the quarterback. These traits should help the 6’2″, 249-pound edge defender become a productive third-down rusher at the next level despite lacking NFL size and length.
