As the NFL’s trade deadline came and went on Thursday, multiple teams around the league added players as part of their playoff pushes. One of those teams was the Pittsburgh Steelers. Pittsburgh made a pair of moves on deadline day, acquiring receiver Mike Williams from the New York Jets and outside linebacker Preston Smith from […]
The Denver Broncos just got their butts whooped, but at 5-4 are they on track to be a playoff team in 2024?
The Denver Broncos are just a few days removed from a gigantic butt-whooping against the Baltimore Ravens, but that loss comes on the heels of an impressive run where Denver won five of six games. At 5-4 with a weak-looking AFC, the path to the playoffs isn’t a difficult one. So the question this week is... are the Broncos a playoff team this year?
Vote below and I’ll be back Saturday to share the results.
*Welcome to SB...
With the Pittsburgh Steelers in first place in the AFC North, all eyes are on Mike Tomlin. Few people expected the Steelers to be competitive this year, and even fewer believed they would be the best team in their division. Tomlin deserves a lot of credit for their success. His decision to bench Justin Fields […]
WCG’s lead draft analyst shares his current top 75 prospects in the class.
The first College Football Playoff rankings of the 2024 regular season came out on Tuesday, marking a major milestone in what’s been an entertaining college football season thus far.
With such a big event having just taken place, now is as good of a time as any to check back in on the 2025 NFL Draft class. I haven’t published a portion of my big board on here publicly since August before the season began, and there’s been a lot of change to take place since then....

Carolina Panthers rookie running back Jonathan Brooks is set to join the 53-man roster, head coach Dave Canales announced Wednesday, per ESPN’s Field Yates. The move adds a new offensive option to the Panthers as they prepare for their Week 10 matchup in Frankfurt, Germany, against a fellow 2-7 team, the New York Giants. However, Canales did not confirm whether Brooks would make his NFL debut in the international showdown.
Brooks, 21, was selected with the 46th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft following a strong collegiate career at the University of Texas. Before joining the Panthers, the promising...
The Patriots don’t seem too worried about safety Kyle Dugger, but maybe they should be.
New England released its injury report on Wednesday, with Dugger (ankle), linebacker Christian Elliss (abdomen) and running back JaMycal Hasty (personal) all being listed as non-participants. Dugger hasn’t played since Week 7 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, missing back-to-back games due to his injury. The Patriots listed him as a limited participant throughout last week before leaving him inactive, so not participating could signal that the ailment has gotten worse.
It’s something to be monitored moving forward.
Elliss missed one practice last week with his abdomen...

The San Francisco 49ers are getting healthy at the right time, as they face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 10 of the NFL season. Despite the team looking to make another huge push for a successful playoffs, wide receiver Deebo Samuel had a bit of a scare earlier this week, per B/R Gridiron on X, formerly Twitter.
During the November 5 trade deadline, Samuel got an unexpected phone call from 49ers general manager John Lynch, via Cleats and Convos.
Samuel picked up the phone, fearing that he’d be involved in a potential deal in the wake of [fellow offensive...
The Bears have made some more moves to the practice squad.
On November 6, the Chicago Bears signed corner Ameer Speed to the active roster from the practice squad to take the roster spot of the recently traded Khalil Herbert, and they signed running back Darrynton Evans to the practice squad. This is Evans’ third stint in Chicago.
Despite their struggles early this season, the Dallas Cowboys did not make wholesale changes at the trade deadline. Team president Jerry Jones made one move, acquiring wide receiver Jonathan Mingo from the Carolina Panthers for a fourth-round pick.
After a 3-5 start, Robert Griffin III said the Cowboys are, without a doubt, the loser of this year’s deadline.
“Oh, it was the Dallas Cowboys, 100%,” Griffin said on The Dan Patrick Show. “For the Cowboys to come away with Jonathan Mingo, who, I love Jonathan Mingo, the player, was very high on him coming out and think that he can...
The Broncos are 5-4 but did make a seller’s trade, unloading Baron Browning (to the Cardinals) for a sixth-round pick. This came shortly after the team extended fellow outside linebacker Jonathon Cooper.
Cooper and Nik Bonitto will continue to anchor Denver’s edge rush, while third-round rookie Jonah Elliss figures to see his snaps increase. But the Broncos also may have a boost coming from a 2023 third-rounder soon. Drew Sanders is now back at practice, returning to work months after suffering an Achilles tear.
While Sanders is in the PUP-return window, center Luke Wattenberg has received a return designation as...
