Last week, bodycam video of a Ridgewood, New Jersey, police officer pulling over embattled NFL reporter Dianni Russini surfaced. In it, Russini tells the officer that she’s an NFL reporter and name-drops several coaches across the league. He ended up letting her off with a warning.
On Monday, Ridgewood Police Chief Forest Ross Lyons released a statement explaining the officer’s decision to not give Dianna Russini a ticket. He claimed it had nothing to do with her status as an NFL reporter with famous contacts.
“On January 19, 2026, at 9:40 am, a Ridgewood police officer conducted a motor vehicle...
Buccaneers HC Todd Bowles believes the team got a steal in rookie OLB Rueben Bain, Jr., and said that not only is he physically gifted, but he also displays great leadership qualities, even if he’s not in that role yet.
Falcons TE Kyle Pitts was asked about the changes the team has already undergone this offseason under new HC Kevin Stefanski.
*“It’s been great. I would say it’s a culture change in terms of every year. Every year is a new reset. But he’s bringing – the work is the work, and that’s something that he’s...

The Baltimore Ravens are still months away from playing their first game later this fall. For now, all fans have to hang on to are rumors of potential additions or camp reports of breakout players.
Usually, being in the news this time of year isn’t a good thing. Now, Ravens fans will have heavy hearts, all due to a massacre that occurred involving the family of one of their players.
Multiple outlets, including WSB-TV out of Atlanta, are now reporting that Ciarre Campbell, brother of Ravens All-Pro Calais Campbell, has been...
Since Al Davis’ birthday (the Fourth of July) is a federal holiday and observed on Friday, this week’s call for Las Vegas Raiders mailbag questions is coming a day early so that I can get a jump on writing it and spend all weekend eating hot dogs and drinking beer! However, the column will still publish at the same time, on Saturday at around 10 a.m. PST.
While we don’t have much going on throughout the league, training camp in Las Vegas is just around the corner to give us something to talk about this week. As always, anything Raiders-related...

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year, we ask questions of the most plugged-in Niners fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.
We are asking about the running backs this week, but not Christian McCaffrey. San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan hasn’t been subtle about acknowledging the need to use more backs moving forward. The team drafted Kaelon Black in the third round, but don’t forget about Jordan James from last season.
James has a lot of Devonta Freeman in him. Not...

We are right in the middle of the dreaded “dog days of summer”, between the end of the New York Giants off-season program and the opening of their training camp at the end of July.
This is the only really quiet period the NFL allows us in their drive to dominate the entire calendar, and outlets use it as a time to reflect and look ahead to the coming season.
Seth Walder of ESPN took the opportunity to hand out grades for all 32 teams.
We’ll evaluate the actual decisions each team has made during the offseason. This is...

Bob Palko would not change a thing about the perfect season that was also a storybook one. Mt. Lebanon High School did not just go 15-0 on the way to the school’s first football state championship in 2021. The Pittsburgh-area school also toppled St. Joseph’s, a Philadelphia powerhouse trying to win its fourth state title […]

We are 75 days away from the Kansas City Chiefs‘ season-opening game against the Denver Broncos on “Monday Night Football” in Week 1.
Offensive tackle Ethan Driskell has worn that uniform for the Chiefs since being signed as an undrafted free agent following the 2024 NFL Draft.
He’ll need a strong performance in training camp to maintain that jersey. These players took the uniform and ran with it in Kansas City.

Only three general manager vacancies emerged this offseason. One of them came from the removal of longtime Dolphins GM Chris Grier, whom the team dismissed last October. Grier had been in Miami’s GM chair since 2016 and held final personnel say beginning in 2019. The Dolphins now have Jon-Eric Sullivan, a long-running Packers exec, at the controls.
The Falcons tabbed Ian Cunningham for their GM gig weeks later, but like Grier when the Dolphins promoted him to GM 10 years ago, he does not have final personnel say. Matt Ryan, hired as the team’s president of football (a new position...

Pittsburgh Steelers defensive back Jalen Ramsey recently reflected on what it was like covering Antonio Brown.
Ramsey and Brown played against each other four times. Three times when Brown was with the Steelers and Ramsey was in Jacksonville, and once when Brown was in Tampa Bay and Ramsey was with the Los Angeles Rams.
“We had battles within every single play,” Ramsey said on Well Off Media’s YouTube channel. “No plays off. We at it every play. Him and his quarterback might have a crazy connection. I’m thinking, ‘They might make something up on me on the sideline. He’s about...
