First looks at rehab for Lions safety Brian Branch’s Achilles injury

First looks at rehab for Lions safety Brian Branch’s Achilles injury

Last week, Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell provided a vague injury update for Lions safeties Brian Branch and Kerby Joseph, along with tight end Sam LaPorta.

“They’re all improving. None of them are practicing,” Campbell said ahead of the third OTA practice for the team. “It’s the best I can tell you.”

At this point, there is no clear timeline for any of those players’ returns to the field, but this week we did get some visual progress for Branch.

The Lions’ Pro Bowl safety suffered a torn Achilles in early December, and it’s basically been radio silence since. However,...

Denver Broncos continue to be slept on with wild ranking in ESPN’s Football Power Index

Denver Broncos continue to be slept on with wild ranking in ESPN’s Football Power Index

The Denver Broncos fell just one game short of making the Super Bowl last season. Despite a successful campaign and bringing back a strong roster loaded with star players and continuity, a lot of outlets and analysts continue to sleep on the Broncos’ potential for the upcoming 2026 season.

ESPN’s Football Power Index ranking is the latest to show a less than favorable projection for the Broncos in ‘26. Per their methodology, Denver enters the season ranked fifteenth in the NFL—eighth best in the AFC despite being the conference’s top seed in 2025. That seems a bit odd, doesn’t it?...

Patriots starting receiver reportedly ‘interested in a trade’

Patriots starting receiver reportedly ‘interested in a trade’

The New England Patriots enjoyed some strong attendance since the start of their voluntary offseason workout program in late April, but Kayshon Boutte has been suspiciously absent so far. His decision to stay away comes in light of constant trade rumors surrounding the fourth-year wide receiver.

He apparently welcomes those as well. In fact, as was recently pointed out by ESPN insider Adam Schefter, Boutte has shown interest in leaving New England.

“One wide receiver I’m still suspecting that something might happen with is Kayshon Boutte,” Schefter said on his podcast. “He has not been there for the offseason program....

What to make of the Jalen Reagor signing – The Splash Zone 6/4/26

What to make of the Jalen Reagor signing – The Splash Zone 6/4/26

The Miami Dolphins added Jalen Reagor to their wide receiver ranks earlier this week and he brings a veteran presence to the room. The Dolphins wide receiver room is one of their weakest units and the Reagor signing doesn’t paint a pretty picture for the guys in the room already. But Reagor isn’t necessarily a slam dunk to make the roster. The Dolphins invested into three rookies this past draft and will want to give them every opportunity to succeed. But nonetheless, Reagor will get a chance to compete alongside Malik Washington, Tutu Atwell, and Jalen Tolbert.

Bears’ Caleb Williams surprises Travis Kelce with talk of new scary weapon

Bears’ Caleb Williams surprises Travis Kelce with talk of new scary weapon

The air is charged with optimism for the Chicago Bears following their promising campaign last season. With quarterback Caleb Williams leading the way, the Bears ruled the NFC North and snapped their four-year drought in the playoffs.

Chicago was among the top offensive teams, averaging 25.9 points and 369.2 yards.

Williams shone in his second year under center, creatively utilizing running backs D’Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai, wide receivers DJ Moore and Rome Odunze, and tight ends Colston Loveland and Cole Kmet, and it seems he has another dependable target in his back pocket.

The 24-year-old Williams guested on “New...

Browns’ Alex Wright has must-hear Myles Garrett trade story

It is a new era for the Cleveland Browns—yet again—after they traded defensive end Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams in exchange for linebacker Jared Verse and three future draft picks.

It came as a surprise to many, since Garrett was the face of the Browns. But general manager Andrew Berry said they felt it was time to move on from the two-time Defensive Player of the Year, who had already demanded a trade in 2025.

In a media conference on Tuesday, Berry explained that the offer of the Rams seemed “really beneficial” to Cleveland, convincing him to pull...
