The tradition continues for the Green Bay Packers and the Detroit Lions as they will play in their 23rd Thanksgiving Day game on Thursday at Ford Field—the most by any two teams in league history.
Packers defensive end Micah Parsons is no stranger to playing on Thanksgiving Day, even once touting that he has played well on the said day. But it will be his first time playing with the Packers on the holiday showcase, and he will have a crucial role in trying to stop the Lions.
While they still have a few days before the face-off, the 26-year-old...

Darren Woodson, one of the most physical and instinctive safeties of the 1990s sat down on The Pivot Podcast, and the conversation quickly shifted from football history to football folklore, when he was asked about his first true glimpses of Deion Sanders during an early Cowboys training camp.
When the current Colorado head coach, fresh off winning Defensive Player of the Year with the San Francisco 49ers in 1994, landed in Dallas in 1995 and delivered another Super Bowl win in that very first Cowboys season, expectations were already sky-high.
But credibility in Dallas had to be earned between the...

Though the 2025 NFL season is far from over, with over a month left in the regular season before the postseason kicks off, it’s felt like the New York Giants have played a half-decade’s worth of football.
First came the Russell Wilson era, when the team didn’t win many games, but Malik Nabers was balling out as one of the best young wide receivers in the game. Then came the Cam Skataboo-Jaxson Dart run, when the team beat the Philadelphia Eagles, and vibes were at an all-time high, even if they, again, didn’t win many games. And finally, the Giants...

At least the Pittsburgh Steelers are consistent. Although the offense is getting off to better starts this season, the team hasn’t broken through the first-quarter glass ceiling. As has been mentioned by NFL broadcasts parodically throughout the season, Pittsburgh is on a historic streak of failing to score more than seven points in the opening […]

The fans and media have been conflicted about who to crown as this year’s “team to beat.” Amid a truly strange NFL season that has featured a plethora of upset losses and ugly wins, many people have opted to place their trust with either the Kansas City Chiefs or Philadelphia Eagles, the Super Bowl matchup in two of the last three years. Finally, though we have reached the point where a squad has convincingly taken the lead in both the eye and metrics tests. The Los Angeles Rams are presently the class of the league.
Following a 34-7 drubbing of...

It seems like Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett is playing extra inspired these days. After all, it’s hard not to when his girlfriend fully supports him.
Garrett helped the Browns beat the Las Vegas Raiders, 24-10, at Allegiant Stadium in Week 12. He tallied three of the team’s 10 sacks and added five combined tackles.
Cleveland snapped its three-game losing streak and improved to 3-8. While their record could be better, the 29-year-old Garrett has been exceptional this season.
On Tuesday, the Browns posted a video of a mic’d-up Garrett from their game against the Raiders, including his [wholesome...

The Indianapolis Colts have five former players named among the 26 modern-era semfinalists for the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Class of 2026: running back Frank Gore, defensive end/outside linebacker Robert Mathis, quarterback Philip Rivers, placekicker Adam Vinatieri, and wide receiver Reggie Wayne.
Both Gore (2015-17) and Rivers (2020) had short stints in Indianapolis, and will be most remembered for their playing days elsewhere where they had the vast peak of their success and spent a much longer period of time. Gore as a workhorse running back for the San Francisco 49ers, and Rivers as the longtime starting quarterback with...

The Pittsburgh Steelers need to get things back on track as soon as possible, but they don’t have the easiest opponent to do it against this week, with the Buffalo Bills set to come to town. Every game late in the year usually means more, but this one especially does with the Bills being one […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers are gearing up for a crucial Week 13 clash against the Buffalo Bills. While it won’t affect their play on the field, the Steelers must now deal with an off-the-field situation.
Defensive tackle Daniel Ekuale has been suspended without pay for the next five games due to violating the league’s performance-enhancing substances policy, via Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. He wouldn’t be able to return until the playoffs at the earliest.
However, Ekuale won’t be playing again in 2025 due to a torn ACL he suffered in Week 8. There is some irony about being suspended...

Why can’t Kevin Patullo just run a normal offense with the Philadelphia Eagles?
Initially joining Nick Sirianni’s staff in 2021 after working together with the Indianapolis Colts, Patullo has watched the offense shine under Shane Steichen, struggle under Brian Johnson, and then become a run-heavy juggernaut helmed by Kellen Moore and through it all, he’s seemingly take notes of what has worked, what hasn’t, and what he would do as an offensive coordinator should he be afforded a chance to call plays.
During the offseason, Sirianni clearly liked the pitch Patullo presented and opted to promote from within instead of...

The Indianapolis Colts announced on Tuesday that wide receiver Ashton Dulin (hamstring) has been placed on injured reserve, and the team signed veteran safety George Odum to the 53-man active roster from the practice squad in a corresponding roster move.
The Colts also re-signed released cornerback Cameron Mitchell back to the team’s practice squad.
Dulin had one of the big plays for the Colts offensively last weekend, catching a 48-yard reception when lining up as an in-line tight end as part of an innovative deception play design by head coach Shane Steichen. He’s been featured more within the Colts offense...
