Per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Steelers WR D.K. Metcalf‘s two-game suspension would void the rest of his 2025 salary and $45 million in future guarantees if upheld.

Metcalf was recently suspended for an incident that took place with a Lions fan in Week 16 in Detroit. He’s appealing the decision, but he would lose massive future guarantees in his contract if the decision is upheld.

Metcalf, 28, is a former second-round pick by the Seahawks in the 2019 NFL Draft out of Ole Miss. Seattle traded up to select him and exchanged the No. 77 and No. 118 picks for...

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf’s recent suspension could be even more costly then previously thought.

The NFL handed Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf a two-game suspension for his altercation with a fan at Ford Field during the team’s 29-24 win over the Detroit Lions. Metcalf plans to appeal the suspension, but if it’s upheld, it could cost Metcalf a lot of money.

Metcalf’s two-game suspension would cost him $277,778 per game, or $555,556 total for the two games. However, NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport reveals that it could cost him a whole lot more than that.

“Based on...

If position coaches are judged by the performance of their players, then Steelers OL coach Pat Meyer deserves some praise. Heavily scrutinized throughout his tenure in Pittsburgh, he finally has his unit turning the corner. And all it took was significant investments—including time and teaching—in the group. At least, this is the narrative of the […]

No team is as good as they look in their best game or as bad as they look in their worst game. The Denver Broncos played one of their worst games of the season on Sunday and still only lost by 14 to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The 34 points allowed was the worst showing by the defense that has been bending but not breaking in previous games. In this game, the dam broke. The Jags scored on 6 of seven drives starting with their TD drive in the first quarter to open the scoring. The 34 points was the most...

The punishment was swift and harsh Monday evening for Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf after his altercation with a Detroit Lions fan in the second quarter of Sunday’s game. Metcalf landed a two-game suspension from the NFL for “conduct detrimental” to both the team and the league. In the memo sent out by the […]

The Tennessee Titans dominated the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 16, beating the Patrick Mahomes-less team 26-9. The Titans outgained the Chiefs 376-133 on offense. The highlight of the afternoon was the performance by rookie quarterback Cam Ward.

Ward arguably played the best game of his rookie season. The No. 1 overall selection completed 21-of-28 passing attempts for 228 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions. Ward set season-high marks in completion percentage (75%) and yards per attempt (8.1).

Ward’s quarterback rating of 122.3 was also a career high. You’ll hear a lot about how the Titans [“dropped” to sixth overall...

In sports, in general, in 2025, there is no room for nuance. We know there is here at DBN in our comment section and in The Feed, but the general sports world speaks in certainties that really don’t exist and cliché sayings (both old and new) that lack detail.

During the Cleveland Browns’ Week 16 game against the Buffalo Bills, I was reminded of a few of those certainties and clichés. For example, many have buried QB Shedeur Sanders as having no chance of being a top-level starter in the NFL, while others have looked at the exact same performances...

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf has been suspended two games after an altercation with a fan during Pittsburgh’s 29-24 win over the Detroit Lions. Metcalf is appealing the suspension in hopes that it will be reduced to one game.

In the meantime, though, this opens the door for the Steelers to bring in another veteran receiver who spent time with Aaron Rodgers in both Green Bay and New York. Allen Lazard was recently let go by the Jets upon his request. Considering how well the offense has played since they went the route of playing veterans Adam Thielen and...

Aaron Glenn says he has a plan. He says Jets fans just have to be patient. Of course he also says Brady Cook gives this team the best chance to win, which is an obvious lie. Credibility is an issue with Glenn.

All indications are Glenn is likely to continue as the head coach of the New York Jets next season. He will have the opportunity to learn from his rookie mistakes. He will bring in another draft class, with four picks in the top 50 or so. He will have a generous amount of cap space to work with...

The Indianapolis Colts are meeting a familiar face in a must win game in week seventeen. If the game against the 49ers wasn’t brutal enough for the defense, this one might be worse as the Jaguars are rolling into town red-hot. This is an absolute must win for the Colts. A win this week, coupled with a loss by the Texans, leaves them in a week eighteen showdown. Lose and the season is over. FanDuel Sportsbook is laying the Colts as sizeable underdogs with a +6.5-spread.

The money line starts at +265 while the over/under comes in at 47.5.

Yeah, you’ve seen him. In fact, you probably have a photo of yourself with him on your phone if you have been to an Arizona Cardinals home game.

He is called “The Ultimate Birdgang Warrior,” and he represents the true fandom of the Cardinals.

The Arizona Superfan is on full display for the love of his team. On game day, he is the Superfan they call the “Ultimate Birdgang Warrior.” Every other day of the week, he is Eric Tarin, age 37, a father of one daughter, Isabella, and a married man to Christina....
