Will this be Aaron Rodgers’ last game with the Steelers? Aaron Rodgers has waxed and waned about retiring after this season, but yesterday, he also spoke, briefly, about free agency. While he admitted there might be only one or teams as options for him, that leaves the door open for playing for somebody next season […]

The Atlanta Falcons unleashed Bijan Robinson on Monday Night Football. The third-year rusher racked up 229 total yards of offense and scored two touchdowns in the Falcons’ 27-24 win over the Los Angeles Rams. It was the latest monster performance in a stellar year for the Falcons’ RB.
Robinson is up to a league-high 2,255 yards from scrimmage through 16 games this season. That’s already good for 16th on the all-time list. And Robinson could make NFL history on Sunday. He needs 255 scrimmage yards to break the single-season record of 2,509, set by Chris Johnson in 2009.

The Cincinnati Bengals are in the midst of another disappointing season as the team failed to reach the playoffs for the third straight year. Joe Burrow was once again sidelined by an injury, missing nine games due to turf toe. Burrow returned earlier than expected. But a Week 15 loss to the Baltimore Ravens ended the Bengals’ postseason hopes.
The cycle of injury and recovery is weighing heavily on the two-time Pro Bowler. And it’s exacerbated by losing. Bengals fans were concerned Burrow would follow in Andrew Luck’s footsteps and retire early after a particularly morose press conference. The veteran...

The Green Bay Packers made an intriguing move, claiming defensive back Trevon Diggs following his release from the Dallas Cowboys. Diggs rejoins Micah Parsons in Green Bay, who the Cowboys traded away before the season began. However, this is not the only familiar face Diggs will encounter as he prepares for life with the Packers.
“One important connection: At Alabama, Trevon Diggs’ secondary coach, helping him make the transition to CB, was Derrick Ansley. Ansley is now the Packers defensive pass game coordinator,” NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport pointed out on Wednesday.
Diggs was a star with the Crimson Tide before...

There has been a consistent theme to the way the Pittsburgh Steelers have defended the run this season. When Derrick Harmon is on the field, they usually do well. And when he’s not, things tend to be much worse. The 21st overall pick of the 2025 NFL Draft has been exactly what the Steelers hoped […]

The Atlanta Falcons received encouraging news following a tense moment in their win over the Los Angeles Rams, as a feared long-term injury to one of their most productive defenders was avoided.
Falcons defensive lineman Brandon Dorlus exited the Monday night matchup in the third quarter after suffering a leg injury that immediately raised concern. Dorlus struggled to put weight on the leg and was carted off the field, creating early fear of a significant knee injury.
Subsequent medical testing provided relief. Scans confirmed Dorlus suffered a hamstring injury rather than any structural damage to the knee or surrounding ligaments....

The Pittsburgh Steelers placed tight end Darnell Washington on the Reserve/Injured List on Wednesday, ending his season. Washington suffered a broken arm in the 13-6 road loss to the Cleveland Browns in Week 17 that required surgery. The 24-year-old was seen after the game with his arm in a cast and sling.
Washington’s placement on injured reserve means he will not be available for the regular-season finale or the start of the postseason. Under league rules, he would only be eligible to return if Pittsburgh advanced as far as the Super Bowl, with his practice window potentially opening during that...

The New England Patriots have dominated Week 18’s headlines for all the wrong reasons.
It started with news of wide receiver Stefon Diggs facing a felony criminal charge as a result of an alleged assault that took place on Dec. 2.
One day later, reports surfaced of defensive tackle Christian Barmore facing a misdemeanor charge of assault and battery for an alleged incident dating back to August of this year involving a woman he had been in a relationship with.
Both cases remain ongoing, and both players are expected to play in the final regular-season game of the year on...

The Patriots made a remarkable choice in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft by selecting running back TreVeyon Henderson from Ohio State.
Henderson has stood out as a key contributor to New England’s remarkable offense this season. According to Bleacher Report’s Brad Gagnon, Henderson could be the best rookie building block for the Patriots’ future.
“Not trying to diss No. 4 overall pick Will Campbell, who looks like a long-term pillar at left tackle,” Gagnon wrote on Wednesday. “Both of these guys should be locked in as long-term building blocks within that offense, but Henderson has actually outshined...

The Indianapolis Colts fell to 8-8 after losing their sixth straight game on Sunday. While the Colts were already eliminated from the playoffs, Philip Rivers took the field in Week 17 for the team’s final home game of 2025.
Rivers un-retired and re-signed with the Colts in an effort to save Indy’s season after Daniel Jones tore his Achilles. But the 44-year-old quarterback couldn’t pull the team out of its spiral. With the Colts out of the playoff hunt, Rivers announced his re-retirement.
“I’m back to the sideline,” Rivers told Kay Adams on the Up & Adams Show. “This was...

If there was ever a sign that Seattle Seahawks receiver Rashid Shaheed will not miss any game time after last Sunday’s concussion, the Wednesday injury report is the best news possible to wrap up 2025.
Unlike Tuesday, which was a walkthrough, the Seahawks had a normal practice on Wednesday, and Shaheed was a full participant. Shaheed left the win over the Carolina Panthers in the first quarter, when Mike Jackson Sr. slung him into a member of the Panthers staff while out of bounds. No flag was thrown, Shaheed was initially ruled questionable before he was declared out in the...

Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was a full participant in the team’s first practice of Week 18, an extremely encouraging sign for his availability for Sunday’s win-or-go-home matchup with the Steelers.
Jackson went down in Week 15 with a severe back contusion that held him out of practice last week. He was listed as doubtful and did not play on Saturday night against the Packers. Backup Tyler Huntley filled in and confidently commanded the offense to a 41-24 victory. Most of the credit goes to Derrick Henry, who finished with 36 carries for 216 yards and four touchdowns, but Huntley made...
