The Jacksonville Jaguars are entering their 32nd NFL season, and in Duval County, expectations haven’t been this high in a long time.
The Jags are looking to build off their 13-3 campaign in Liam Coen’s first year to reach their first championship game in franchise history. With one of the league’s top young coaches at the helm, Jacksonville is ready to shock the world.
According to FanDuel Sportsbook, the Jaguars have +2700 odds to win Super Bowl LXI.
Week 1: at New Orleans Saints (Saturday, August 15, 4 p.m.) on FOX

Before James Harrison became the baddest man in the NFL during the 2000s, the Pittsburgh Steelers had another linebacker who was universally feared throughout the 1980s and 1990s. Greg Lloyd was so relentless that even the football seemed afraid of him, forcing 37 fumbles, a team record that still stands. And perhaps nobody should have […]

Less than eight months after tearing his Achilles, Colts quarterback Daniel Jones is fully cleared for training camp.
“Plan is to be back in 11-on-11, full-team drills Wednesday when we start up practice,” Jones said on The Pat McAfee Show. “Be out there with the guys, excited to get back rolling.”
Average recovery times for Achilles ruptures have gotten faster and faster in recent years. Jones is the latest player to beat the previously-typical nine-month return timeline, made even more impressive by his simultaneous rehab from a fracture in his other leg. That injury, suffered in November, healed much quicker...

In a city where special teams standouts are celebrated like steelworkers on a double shift, Ben Skowronek is quickly carving out his own piece of Pittsburgh lore.
When the 6-foot-3, 224-pound wideout arrived in late 2024 via the practice squad, few expected him to become the heartbeat of Danny Smith’s kick coverage units. But by the end of the 2025 season, Skowronek had established himself as an indispensable weapon, earning a Pro Bowl selection as the AFC’s premier special teamer after racking up 11 solo tackles and routinely blowing up return schemes as a gunner.
Now, as the Steelers head...
I broke down the 2027 scouting classes in my early summer scouting series, and the room has a ton of potential with a long list of potential standout players. I broke down the offense and defense in articles and I suggest reading those for a broad aspect of the room. The Raiders have Kolton Miller, DJ Glaze, and Charles Grant at tackle, but the NFL changes quickly and with Miller pushing over 30 there’s a chance he may be a trade candidate after 2026 if Las Vegas wants to get younger. Additionally, 2026 is likely a make it or break...

An incident on Sunday night resulted in the wife of Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy being shot. Eric and Mia’s son Elijah was arrested after allegedly shooting his mother.
Mia Bieniemy is currently hospitalized and in stable condition, and Eric has stepped away from the team. It is unclear how long that will remain the case, but veterans will report to Kansas City for the start of training camp tomorrow. An interim offensive coordinator setup is now in place.
Head coach Andy Reid said on Monday (via ESPN’s Nate Taylor) pass-game coordinator Joe Bleymaier will serve as the Chiefs’ OC...

In the midst of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ long playoff losing streak, plenty of things have gone wrong. And especially for the last two offseasons, the team as a whole has seen a lot of change. Yet, one thing that’s remained a consistent Steelers strength is the outside linebacker position. In T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith, […]

For once, our SBNation Reacts poll had a wide range of opinions, and based on the comments, it’s pretty surprising that the top choice ended up being “Wide Receiver 4” as the most interesting position battle to watch.
While almost half of the voters chose this one (frankly this was my choice too), all the other choices got a spread of the votes, and commenters seemed to prefer either the third linebacker position or “who would replace JFM” (which was a solid suggestion…see below)!
The good thing about this poll — and its choices — is that it reflects a...

While not a former All-Pro like Quinnen Williams or even a Pro Bowler like Kenny Clark, Jonathan Bullard is still their peer as part of the new veteran core in the Cowboys’ defensive front. He won’t be as prevalent in Dallas’ DT rotation, but Bullard could fill important roles in certain formations and as a mentor to one particular rookie.
Years in NFL: 10
Acquired by: Free agent (2026)
Like new teammates Clark and Dak Prescott, Bullard entered the NFL with the 2016 draft class. He was an early third-round pick by the Chicago Bears, playing as a...

According to Cam Inman, 49ers rookie Romello Height was carted off late during practice with a lower-leg injury.
Per Nick Wagoner, the 49ers announced that Height was simply dealing with severe cramps, meaning he is not seriously injured.
Height, 25, was a four-star recruit and the 25th-ranked outside linebacker in the 2020 recruiting class out of Dublin, Georgia.
He committed to Auburn but transferred after two seasons to USC. From there, Height transferred to Georgia Tech ahead of the 2024 season and transferred again to Texas Tech for his final year, where he earned first-team All-Big 12 honors.

NFL Trade Rumors
While most of the talk, including some seemingly made-up drama, around the Cleveland Browns relates to the quarterback competition and the revamped offensive line, Todd Monken’s offense will run through RB Quinshon Judkins. The Browns are likely to run the ball at a high clip this year to help the offensive line gel and whoever is the starting quarterback.
Judkins’ rookie season has him on track to be among the top backs in the NFL, despite missing three games in 2025. Returning from injury, Judkins looked ahead of schedule during the spring as he hopes to build on his 827...

Calvin Ridley is going to be a key part of the Tennessee Titans’ offense in 2026. The good news is that, unlike last year, he is not THE key part of the Titans’ offense. Tennessee added Wan’Dale Robinson in free agency and Carnell Tate in the draft. Ridley might be the third option for this team this year.
This week, I asked how many yards you expect Ridley to have this season. Here are the results:
88% of you expect Ridley to have at least 500 yards this season. While 500 would be a disappointment, anything over 650 yards would...
