The uncertainty surrounding Mike McDaniel‘s status has ended. Miami has elected to move in a new direction with respect to the head coaching spot.
McDaniel has been fired, as first reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter. This ends his four-year run leading the team and creates an eighth head coaching vacancy around the league. Signs pointed toward McDaniel staying in the days following the regular season, but that will not be the case. McDaniel was caught off guard by this decision, per Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald.

Over the Cap has just dropped their cap casualty rankings for the upcoming offseason, which includes four Green Bay Packers in their top 100 players. Only three teams have more plays on the list than the Packers: the Arizona Cardinals (nine), the Minnesota Vikings (seven) and the Washington Commanders (seven).
Personally, I only think that Green Bay will make two cuts. Let’s go ahead and talk about each player’s situation.
This is the easiest one to predict, as it was obvious based on his 2026 cap hit (and struggles in...

After firing John Morton on Tuesday, the Lions are on the hunt for a new offensive coordinator. Commanders assistant quarterbacks coach (and former Lions QB) David Blough and ex-Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel have emerged as early candidates. Regardless of who lands the job, it doesn’t appear running back David Montgomery is a lock to remain among the Lions’ offensive weapons in 2026.
The 28-year-old Montgomery took on a lesser role this season, his third in Detroit. It could go down as his last in a Lions uniform. Asked about Montgomery’s future on Thursday, general manager Brad Holmes didn’t...

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love will suit up in the playoffs for the third straight year, and he wants nothing more than to get over the hump and advance to the Super Bowl for the first time.
But of course, it is easier said than done, especially since they are facing the Chicago Bears in the wild card round at Soldier Field on Saturday. Love will have to be extra careful with the football, as the Bears led the NFL with 23 interceptions and 33 takeaways in the regular season.
The 27-year-old signal-caller, who is 1-2 in the playoffs,...

After a 1-7 start, the New Orleans Saints finished the season strong. Led by a rapidly improving Tyler Shough under center, the Saints improved to 6-11 by closing the year with a 4-1 surge. While the team missed the playoffs for the fifth straight season, New Orleans may have found its franchise quarterback. The Saints decided to move forward with Shough as the starter in 2026.
The second-round rookie passer impressed after taking over QB1 duties in Week 9. But one day after the Saints endorsed Shough as the starter, PFT Commenter posted a brutal clip of the quarterback. The...

January football in Foxborough rarely favors the visitors. With that, Los Angeles Chargers know exactly what they’re walking into. The AFC Wild Card Game against the second-seeded New England Patriots is the kind of test that strips teams down to their fundamentals. That’s ball security, discipline, and toughness in the trenches. The Patriots enter with the league’s most efficient rushing attack and home-field advantage. The Chargers arrive with questions along the offensive line and a hampered quarterback. Postseason history, though, has a way of elevating star power. Los Angeles believes this matchup is far closer than the odds suggest.

The Detroit Lions had a rather disappointing season in 2025 after earning the NFC’s No. 1 seed in 2024. Detroit has fired offensive coordinator John Morton, preparing to add its fourth offensive coordinator since Dan Campbell was named head coach in 2021. And they are likely to make some hard decisions this offseason.
The Lions did not make the playoffs this year. As a result, they are turning their attention to the offseason and, more importantly, the 2026 NFL Draft. Detroit has 105 days to work through its scouting reports. Once April 23 comes around, they are on the clock...

It’s Wild Card Weekend, and the Carolina Panthers are about to learn a harsh lesson in January football. While the Panthers earned their first playoff berth in eight years by claiming the NFC South with an 8-9 record, they’re walking into a buzzsaw on Saturday night.
The Los Angeles Rams, featuring one of the most lethal offensive arsenals in the entire league, are ready to remind everyone why their 12-5 record and playoff pedigree make them a completely different animal than the regular season version of Carolina that scraped out a 31-28 victory back in Week 13. That win? Expect...

The Dolphins are suddenly without a head coach after firing Mike McDaniel on Thursday. The team also doesn’t have a full-time general manager, but it appears that’s about to change.
The Dolphins expect to make a decision on a GM by Friday, Jeff Darlington of ESPN reports. Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald passes along similar information, writing they’ll choose a candidate by Friday night or Saturday.
Since the Dolphins parted with longtime GM Chris Grier on Halloween, Champ Kelly has held the position on an interim basis. He’s one of four finalists for the job, joining Chargers assistant GM...

Following news that the Buffalo Bills will be demolishing Highmark Stadium to create their new facility across the street, fans will be able to have a piece of memorabilia from the stadium to keep with them. According to TMZ, fans will be able to take home “seats, turf, lockers … and even the trough urinals.”
