Patrick Surtain will continue to serve as the anchor of Denver’s secondary in 2026 and for years to come. Fellow cornerback Ja’Quan McMillian has begun extension talks with the Broncos.
That leaves Riley Moss in an interesting position. The coming season will be the final one of his rookie contract, and it remains to be seen if Denver will make a long-term commitment in this case. Surtain is already attached to a massive contract of his own, and McMillian could land one shortly. 2025 first-rounder Jahdae Barron is also in the mix, and he is a candidate to [take on...
Pro Football Rumors
Kirk Cousins is going to open the season under center for the Las Vegas Raiders, and at this point, saying so out loud barely qualifies as a prediction.
ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported this week that Cousins is “well-positioned” to be the Week 1 starter, with Fernando Mendoza working his way in behind him instead of getting thrown into the lineup in September. Coach Klint Kubiak has been signaling exactly this since the day he took the job, so Fowler’s report mostly confirms what anybody paying attention already assumed.
He did leave a little wiggle room, noting the staff could adjust...
Commanders LT Laremy Tunsil said he sees himself in OT Josh Conerly and believes that he has a ton of potential.
“I see myself,” Tunsil said, via the team’s website. “I don’t wanna sound cliche. I see a dog. I see somebody who wants it. He wants to be great.”
Tunsil added that he’s helping Conerly off the field and his helping him learn how to keep his body in shape.
“We’re working every day; every single day,” Tunsil said. “*He came to work with me every day. He ate right. It’s protein for lunch and breakfast. There’s...

The more we dug in, the more we realized how much he had overcome – not just as an athlete, but as...
The Pittsburgh Steelers bringing back Aaron Rodgers for a second season is a move that many pundits are questioning. After all, Rodgers struggled last season under pressure, got rid of the ball in the fastest time of his career, and generally didn’t push the ball down the field. In the Steelers’ AFC Wild Card blowout […]

The San Francisco 49ers are expecting big things from Mike Evans this season. He’ll be Brock Purdy’s go-to target and open things up for everyone else on offense. He should allow George Kittle to take his time returning from an Achilles injury, as well as make life easier on Ricky Pearsall. That’s expected.
Several other free agents on the roster could make meaningful contributions. But to what degree?
Will Christian Kirk stay healthy enough to add a speed dimension on offense?
Will Vederian Lowe save the day at tackle if Trent Williams misses time? Robert Jones and Bret Toth joined...
