Among the decisions the Texans have to make before setting their initial 53-man roster on Tuesday is whether to activate running back Joe Mixon from the non-football injury list. On Monday, head coach DeMeco Ryans said that there was no news to share on that front. Mixon has been out

Yes, all hold-ins must come to an end. At some point. In Washington, it ended with receiver Terry McLaurin signing a new four-year contract (a three-year extension) that will pay him “up to” $32 million per year. As usual, the structure will say plenty — from signing bonus to the

During the draft, a question emerged regarding whether quarterback Shedeur Sanders could, and whether he should, try to return to college for another season.

The situation between the Cowboys and linebacker Micah Parsons is getting ugly. It could still get even uglier. Dallas faces the Eagles in only 10 days. Parsons has yet to practice during training camp, citing a back problem. Owner and G.M. Jerry Jones has dismissed his “hurt back” (and Micah’s

The Lions’ unofficial depth chart still shows Hendon Hooker as the backup to Jared Goff, even though it has become increasingly obvious that Hooker is not long for Detroit. The real question is whether the Lions fully trust Kyle Allen to be the backup to Jared Goff. Hooker has struggled

The 49ers have been short on healthy wide receivers all summer and the Chiefs didn’t have much space in their offense for wide receiver Skyy Moore, so it made sense that the two teams found common ground on a trade earlier this month. Moore and a 2027 seventh-round pick went

Bills running back Frank Gore Jr. has never played in a regular-season game, but his preseason performance suggests he’s capable of making plays if given the chance. A strong preseason helped Gore make the Bills’ practice squad as an undrafted rookie last year, and Gore turned in an even better

The Patriots’ 2024 draft class has taken another hit. Guard Layden Robinson, whom the Patriots selected with their fourth-round pick last year, was waived-injured.

The Patriots’ 2024 draft brought them their starting quarterback. It didn’t bring much else. As noted by Mike Reiss of ESPN, quarterback Drake Maye might be the only Patriots draft pick from 2024 to make their 2025 53-man roster. Second-round pick Ja’Lynn Polk is expected to go on injured reserve

The Bills began the process of cutting their roster to 53 players. They announced Sunday the release of six players, and they also waived wide receiver Grant DuBose with an injury designation.

Shilo and Shedeur Sanders could be teammates again. In theory. It would happen north of the border.

It works on a

Bill Belichick and UNC are finally getting their infomercial. Technically, Hulu will stream a “docuseries” regarding the North Carolina football program during the first year of Belichick’s foray into college football. It’s safe to assume Belichick and/or the program will have total control over what does, and doesn’t, make the

The Eagles keep making deals. The latest brings back a player who had spent the last three seasons in Philly. Via multiple reports, the Jaguars have traded tackle Fred Johnson to the Eagles. Johnson signed a one-year, $1.137 million deal as a free agent in March. Undrafted out of Florida

Days after Vikings coach Kevin O’Connell declared the competition for the backup quarterback job to be open, he made his decision. None of the above.
