Pittsburgh Steelers Expected to Make Aaron Rodgers Decision Soon

Pittsburgh Steelers Expected to Make Aaron Rodgers Decision Soon

The Pittsburgh Steelers were extremely patient when it came to waiting for their starting quarterback last offseason. They didn’t get Aaron Rodgers under contract until June 6, roughly a month before their training camp got underway.

Yet, Rodgers only agreed to a one-year contract, worth $13.65 million. Now, Rodgers’ contract is set to expire. That is, unless the Steelers plan on working out an extension with the 42-year-old QB first.

According to Steelers owner Art Rooney II, Pittsburgh will make a decision on Rodgers at some point in the “next month or so.” Since NFL free agency won’t begin until...

AFC Notes: Sean Payton, Eric Bieniemy, Broncos, Chargers, Chiefs

Broncos

Broncos HC Sean Payton has several regrets after the loss to New England, including an early game decision to go for it on fourth down instead of taking an easy field goal.

“[I’m] hurting for every one of those players in that locker room,” Payton said, via Jeff Legwold of ESPN. “There’ll be a number of things when we watch the tape and I’ll look at and critique and pay close attention to. … It was a hard-fought game, and we didn’t do enough to win it.”

“We didn’t score enough points and capitalize on that field position,”...

Kyle Pitts: It’d Be “Dope” To Play Under Kevin Stefanski

Kyle Pitts has an opportunity to parlay his career year into a lucrative contract, opening the door for him to play elsewhere in 2026. However, the impending free agent tight end is intrigued by the opportunity to continue his Falcons career playing under new leadership.

While speaking with Jordan Schultz and Draymond Green on the Why is Draymond Green Talking About Football? podcast, Pitts said it’d be “dope” to play for new Falcons head coach Kevin Stefanski.

*“That’d be dope in general as a room and just for morale as an offensive piece, [with] the tight end being one of...

Ravens Request OC Interview With Bears’ Declan Doyle

Ravens Request OC Interview With Bears’ Declan Doyle

The NFL has attempted to help fast-track upward mobility by loosening restrictions on coordinator movement. Teams are no longer permitted to block OC interviews if the job would allow a non-play-calling OC to commandeer a call sheet for another team.

Chicago currently employs an assistant in this position, and teams are looking into Ben Johnson‘s non-play-calling OC. After the Eagles requested a Declan Doyle OC interview, the Chicago Tribune’s Brad Biggs reports the Ravens have submitted a request to meet with the Bears’ OC.

Doyle, however, withdrew his name from the Eagles’ search today. It would be interesting if he...

Analyst Pushes Steelers to Target Rising Star QB in Free Agency

NFL analyst Rich Eisen believes the Pittsburgh Steelers should go after one of the upcoming free agent quarterbacks.

It remains to be seen who the Pittsburgh Steelers starting quarterback will be for the 2026 season. Many believe that player will come via the 2026 NFL Draft while others think he is already on the roster.

NFL analyst Rich Eisen disagrees with both of those routes, though, as he recently made the case for upcoming free agent quarterback Malik Willis.

“Malik Willis. Go get him,” Eisen said on The Rich Eisen Show. “You go get him. You tell [Mike] McCarthy, ‘Hey,...

Who knows what is next for the Cleveland Browns head coach search? On Monday alone, the team brass flew out to California to interview the final known candidate on their list, Nate Scheelhaase.

Rams’ top 3 NFL Draft targets after crushing playoff loss to Seahawks

Rams’ top 3 NFL Draft targets after crushing playoff loss to Seahawks

The Los Angeles Rams cleaned out their lockers for good Monday, following the devastating loss to the Seahawks. Now the next time the Rams return to their lockers, they’ll have new rookie teammates via the 2026 NFL Draft.

That’s where Les Snead and the scouting department must continue the impressive streak they’ve been on during the “remodel” strategy.

The “remodel” phase manifested following their disastrous 5-12 season — ending their free agents first philosophy that brought Matthew Stafford and others into the fold. This approach also became famously known as “F— them picks” by the general manager Snead.

But while...

Los Angeles Rams Disrespected Cooper Kupp Before Cutting Ties

Los Angeles Rams Disrespected Cooper Kupp Before Cutting Ties

Cooper Kupp is set to play in the second Super Bowl of his NFL career. Though, this time it will be as a member of the Seattle Seahawks rather than the Los Angeles Rams, with whom he won the Super Bowl. He was even named Super Bowl MVP after recording eight receptions for 92 yards and two touchdowns.

However, if Kupp had it his way, he’d still be a member of the Rams, who made him a third-round pick and the 69th overall selection in the 2017 NFL Draft. Yet, once the 2024 season ended, the Rams made it clear...

Bills To Interview Nate Scheelhaase For HC

Nate Scheelhaase is considered a leading candidate for the Browns head coaching job, but that won’t stop the Rams pass-game coordinator from considering other opportunities. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Bills have requested a head coaching interview with Scheelhaase. The meeting is expected to take place tonight, per Schefter.
