Summer break is fast approaching for NFL teams. Over the next two weeks, they’ll be wrapping up their offseason programs. During the long wait for football’s return, what will be the top question lingering over every club? I pick one key query for each NFC team (stay tuned for the AFC edition Friday): NFC East On paper, the Dallas Cowboys are much improved on defense. Five of their seven draft picks were used on that side of the ball — most notably first-round picks Caleb Downs, who’s been touted as a generational defensive back prospect, and edge rusher Malachi Lawrence....

There are cliches in football just like in life. When Kansas City Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo has a long-limbed, rock-solid defensive end in his lineup, that’s a “Spags defensive end” to many football fans.

At this point in Spags’ 17-year career as an NFL coordinator or head coach, that feels like an overblown narrative, and the defensive mastermind echoed that sentiment during his press conference after Wednesday’s minicamp practice.

“I like to think I just like good football players; they don’t all come in one molded size,” Spagnuolo said after questioning the stereotype.

The reporter mentioned that “mold” for...

The Rams have agreed to a five-year contract with Myles Garrett, according to Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk. Details of the contract, most importantly average annual salary and guaranteed money, are not yet available. Florio reports that the contract runs through 2030 and also has options running through 2038 to bring down the annual salary. Garrett had a contract worth $40 million per season, but the going rate for a top pass rusher has already gone up to $50 million since then.

*“Per a source with knowledge of the situation, the Rams and Garrett have worked out a new deal. It’s...

We’ve been running a poll where Cleveland Browns fans were asked to grade the team’s trade haul in the deal for Myles Garrett.

The Detroit Lions announced they signed undrafted WR Kyre Duplessis to a contract on Thursday.

This comes after fifth-round WR Kendrick Law suffered a torn ACL in practice this week.

Duplessis originally committed to Coastal Carolina in 2020. After redshirting his freshman year, he remained there for four years before transferring to Delaware. He earned Conference USA All-Conference First Team honors in 2025.

During his college career, Duplessis recorded 83 receptions for 1,172 yards (14.1 YPC) and six touchdowns.

Throughout the offseason — including around free agency, after the draft, and when this year’s NFL schedule was released — we’ve been following the Cleveland Browns’ odds to win the Super Bowl, to win the AFC North, and the over/under odds on certain wins/losses.

Overall, the odds had been fairly steady or leaning slightly toward a slightly optimistic lens on the Browns’ upcoming season after the hiring of Todd Monken as head coach, and a solid-looking draft class. Not addressing the quarterback position still kept them with low Super Bowl odds and finishing fourth within the AFC North, though, and...

The Las Vegas Raiders are close to breaking for the summer, as OTAs will wrap up on Thursday this week and mandatory minicamp starts on Tuesday, June 9. After the three practices next week, the Raiders will have some downtime before the position and depth chart battles really begin during training camp.

So, we’re in a bit of a slow news period, but there was some good news coming out of Las Vegas this week. Nickelback Taron Johnson showed up to OTAs after missing the previous weeks while seeking a restructured contract (h/t Levi Edwards of the team’s website) to...

The Cleveland Browns are in the middle of the 2026 offseason, signing new players and shipping off the face of the franchise: Myles Garrett. And in the shadow of this year’s biggest blockbuster trade, the United Football League (UFL) playoffs are set to begin.

There are numerous former Browns players and coaches who are taking their shot at the UFL crown.

The UFL is allowing these athletes and coaches to keep their dream alive of once again playing in the NFL.

This weekend, the UFL playoffs are in full swing with two games slated on...

The mystery surrounding Kerby Joseph’s injury continues.

A knee injury that sidelined the Detroit Lions safety for the final half of the 2025 season has continued to linger and kept him off the practice field. Throughout the past few months, there has been very little clarity on what appears to be a chronic knee injury.

On Thursday, coach Dan Campbell continued to reiterate that they simply do not know what to expect from Joseph this year.

“I don’t know. I honestly do not know,” Campbell said. “I know this: we’ve done everything we can do, and he’s done everything he...

The Minnesota Vikings announced they signed undrafted WRs Michael Briscoe and Trayvon Rudolph, and waived WR Joaquin Davis in a corresponding move.

Rudolph, 24, originally committed to Northern Illinois in 2020 and remained there for four years before transferring to Toledo. He earned second-team All-MAC honors as a receiver and returner in 2025 and third-team All-MAC in 2023.

The Seahawks signed him as an undrafted free agent following the 2026 NFL Draft, but cut him after a couple of weeks.

During his college career, Rudolph appeared in 57 games and recorded 192 receptions for 2,482 yards (12.9 YPC) and 12...

Earlier this week, the Cleveland Browns traded star defensive end Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams. It was a shock to the entire fanbase, as many didn’t expect Cleveland to do it, but they did it. The move signals a bigger picture of what the team is trying to do, and while some fans will not agree with it, it was the necessary move that had to be made.

Fans will look for many reasons as to why this trade happened. Trading for quarterback Deshaun Watson, in which Watson never looked anything close to his Pro Bowl self while...
