The Philadelphia Eagles ended up producing two future college football coaches. Michael Vick and DeSean Jackson led HBCU programs in 2025 — the latter turning around Delaware State. But is Sacramento State set to swoop up “Coach D-Jax?”

CBS Sports college football insider Matt Zenitz revealed Jackson is a possibility for the open Hornets job. Sacramento State lost Brennan Marion to Colorado where he’ll ignite the offense for Deion Sanders.

Zenitz, however, mentioned multiple names linked to the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) gig including a familiar name to the Hornets.

DeSean Jackson comes with ties that Sacramento State could love...

After watching from the sidelines as the Philadelphia Eagles suffered a heartbreaker of a loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday Night Football, Nick Sirianni was handed some more bad news when Lane Johnson and Jalen Carter, arguably his best offensive and defensive players, were held out of practice on Wednesday.

Taking to social media to announce the news, Mike Garafolo broke down the situation, noting crucially that the Eagles only actually had a walkthrough in their first practice back from LA.

“Lane Johnson and Jalen Carter listed as DNPs in an estimated injury report, as the Eagles conducted...

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert provided a clearer picture of his status on Wednesday, two days after absorbing one of the most punishing games of his career in a 22–19 overtime win against the Philadelphia Eagles. Playing through a fractured left (non-throwing) hand, which he hurt during Los Angeles’ Week 13 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, Herbert underwent postgame X-rays Monday night.

“Everything was clean for the most part,” Herbert said on Wednesday. “It’s just getting the swelling down and continuing to get full strength in it and continuing to do as much treatment as I can.”

“Just...

With starting quarterback Geno Smith doubtful to play this week amidst a 2-11 start to the season, the Raiders’ 2025 campaign is circling the drain. That shouldn’t take away from the positive news that star left tackle Kolton Miller is nearing a return to the field.

Las Vegas announced today that Miller has returned to practice, opening his 21-day practice window in which he can be activated from injured reserve to the 53-man roster. Miller has missed the last 10 weeks with a high ankle sprain and hairline fracture. There’s little to play for, but these final four weeks...

Michigan dismissed its head coach, Sherrone Moore on Wednesday afternoon. The university stated that Moore was “involved in an inappropriate relationship with a staff member.”

Now that Michigan will be looking for a head coach, a handful of names will emerge. Sports Illustrated’s Bryan Fischer named former Patriots assistant coach Brian Daboll as a possible candidate.

“Before Penn State hired Matt Campbell, it seriously considered the former Giants (Daboll) head coach,” Fischer wrote on Wednesday. “He is not a novice to the college game, and his work with quarterbacks could be very appealing if quarterback Bryce Underwood sticks around campus...

Sam Ehlinger is staying put in Mile High City after he reportedly chose to stick it with the practice squad of the Denver Broncos instead of returning to the Indianapolis Colts.

According to NFL insider Jordan Schultz, the Colts were interested in signing Ehlinger after the season-ending Achilles injury to Daniel Jones. The feeling, however, wasn’t mutual for the fifth-year quarterback.

“Ehlinger, who’s had multiple opportunities to leave this year, decided he wanted to stay in Denver and continue his development with HC Sean Payton and QBs coach Davis Webb,” wrote Schultz on X.

He noted that the Colts reached...

At 9-4, the Buffalo Bills march into a Week 15 road matchup against the AFC East-leading 11-2 New England Patriots.

According to Outkick’s Armando Salguero, the Indianapolis Colts didn’t just reach out to recently re-signed quarterback Philip Rivers among retired veteran options, as the team also reached out to Derek Carr:

“Why are the Colts doing this? Start with the fact they called other quarterbacks to gauge their interest in signing. They called Derek Carr, per a source,” Salguero writes.

The 34-year-old Carr, who’s a decade younger than Rivers, declined the opportunity. The 4x NFL Pro Bowl quarterback played 11 years in the NFL, most notably with the Raiders organization, before retiring this past May due to longstanding pain...

The Indianapolis Colts had interest in signing QB Sam Ehlinger off of the Broncos’ practice squad in wake of QB Daniel Jones‘ Achilles injury, according to Jordan Schultz.

Ehlinger remained adamant about wanting to stay in Denver and continue his development with HC Sean Payton and QB coach Davis Webb.

Ehlinger, 26, was a four-year starter at Texas, earning second-team All-Big 12 honors in 2020 and honorable mention in 2018-2019.

Ehlinger was selected by the Colts in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft and signed a four-year deal worth $3,610,707 that also includes a $130,707 signing bonus.
