Arguably no team made a bigger move than the Los Angeles Rams did this offseason by trading for Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett. Even though he’s 30 years old, Garrett is undoubtedly in the team’s long-term plans. He’s also signed through 2030, so Garrett likely isn’t going anywhere any time soon.
But now that the Rams are allocating more resources (cap space) to Garrett, it means the pockets of other athletes on the team could get pinched.
While Garrett’s arrival could have a profound impact on an already...
While unlikely, there’s been some buzz that the Pittsburgh Steelers could trade a cornerback, as the room is deeper than it has been in recent memory. It started with Mark Kaboly mentioning the team could potentially trade CB Asante Samuel Jr. Earlier this week, The Athletic’s Mike DeFabo wrote that the play of CB D’Shawn […]

Everybody knows that Johnny Manziel and the Cleveland Browns never really got along, for various reasons, and Manziel has been very outspoken about why over the past few years. Now, he discussed what could have happened if Cleveland never traded up to take him at pick 22 in the 2014 NFL Draft.
On a recent episode of The Rich Eisen Show, Manziel divulged that another AFC team could’ve selected him if former Browns GM Ray Farmer didn’t trade up to get him:
“Going into the draft we felt like our floor was 23—I think Andy Reid really liked me and...

As the NFL offseason draws near its end, it is a good time for ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler to unveil top-10 positional rankings based on a survey of league executives, coaches and scouts, with more than 70 voters submitting ballots this year.
The Kansas City Chiefs have been featured with the following players so far:

The grass used for the World Cup at Gillette Stadium has been removed to be replaced with turf. Images of the change are now circulating social media.
The move reignites debate surrounding NFL playing surfaces and player safety.
Is grass better than turf? Research appears to support that claim. It had no impact on the Patriots‘ decision.
The natural grass surface installed at Gillette Stadium for the 2026 FIFA World Cup has officially been removed.

The Kansas City Chiefs had a down year last season, missing the playoffs for the first time since before Patrick Mahomes was drafted in 2017. Yet, they hope that their 6-11 record in 2025 was just a blip on the radar rather than the start of a trend.
Which, if Mahomes can return to top form after tearing his ACL, if more playmakers emerge, and Steve Spagnuolo’s defense can still be a top-10 unit, the Chiefs might have no trouble returning to the postseason. Of course, those are a lot of ifs, but one player who will have a pivotal...
Dan Duggan of The Athletic (subscription required) says Giants left tackle Andrew Thomas is currently heading down a path similar to the one charted by the club’s former defensive tackle, Dexter Lawrence, though he believes there may be a different outcome in Thomas’ case. Both players were first-round draft picks – Thomas was selected in 2020, one year after Lawrence – and both signed second contracts near the top of the market for their respective positions in 2023.
With two years but no guaranteed money remaining on his deal, Lawrence angled for a revised accord this offseason. Player and team...

The New York Giants finally feel good about their offensive line heading into the 2026 season.
The biggest long-term question on the line is the left guard position currently manned by Jon Runyan Jr., who will be a free agent after the 2026 season. If we assume that none of the Giants’ current reserve interior linemen are able to beat Runyan out and make him a cap casualty — or establish themselves as an obvious heir — the left guard position is an obvious need for 2027.
As things stand now, the offensive interior doesn’t appear to be a position...

Early to mid-July is perhaps the deadest of times on the NFL calendar. Training camps are still a couple of weeks off. The big free agency news is done, and outside of some notable off-field player actions (more later), there really isn’t much to say about the NFL season. However, that does not mean that the Texans are sitting idly by just waiting for the opening of training camp. There is always the quest to upgrade the roster, looking to add some sort of depth. This is a constant of a team’s front office, and early/mid July is no exception....

Kenny Moore II is on to new beginnings. The Colts granted Moore’s request for a release following the draft. Moore originally requested a trade, but due to his age and contract, that was always unlikely. Instead, he is now free to sign with any team.
A former undrafted free agent out of Valdosta State in 2017, Moore signed with the Patriots out of college, but was cut coming out of training camp. He quickly landed with the Colts where he’s been ever since, even starting as a rookie. While the...
NFL Trade Rumors
A good quarterback is hard to find in the NFL. It’s why, typically, when teams find a franchise solution, they do everything they can to keep him for as long as possible. Yet, every now and then, a starting-caliber option becomes available. Oftentimes when they do hit the market, there’s a land rush for their services.
Recently, a retired former Pro Bowl QB generated interest from a number of teams this offseason. It wasn’t Philip Rivers, who’s now 45 years old. Instead, it was someone who is nearly a decade younger than him. So, who was it?
Derek Carr Turned...
There are plenty of reasons to be excited about the 2026 Pittsburgh Steelers’ offensive line. The rising unit could become one of the league’s best and play a big role in the team’s success. Omar Khan and Andy Weidl deserve credit for building up the trenches through the draft. But Khan’s first draft pick, Broderick […]
