Cincinnati Bengals season ticket holders apparently have long memories, as they have just elected tight end Bob Trumpy and running back James Brooks to be the latest members of the team’s Ring of Honor.
As Geoff Hobson wrote in his article on their selections on Bengals.com, Trumpy was selected in the 12th round of the 1968 Draft, which also happened to be the Bengals’ inaugural season. He was only 215 pounds, but he made the most of his frame with his tremendous receiving ability, grabbing 216 passes in his first six seasons.
“He was a top-level player,” Bengals owner Mike...

Hey everyone! It’s your favorite (bold assumption but I’m making it) recipe writer here, looking to get you into the game. The food game. Okay, just the food writing game. I think you get the idea. I want you to tell me recipes you’d like to see my take on and I’ll compile your ideas, choose ones I like, and give you a shoutout if I write yours up.
Oh yeah, you can count on me doing something zany and weird with the idea too. It’s kind of my brand.

Looking ahead to the 2026 season, one key concern for the Pittsburgh Steelers is inside linebacker position. After going through a rough 2025 season with some disappointing performances from Patrick Queen, Payton Wilson and Malik Harrison, the Steelers surprisingly decided to run it back with the same group of inside linebackers, even re-signing veteran Cole […]

New Orleans Saints Hall of Famer and former offensive tackle Stan Brock recently spoke with Arizona Cardinals insider Kyle Odegard in an exclusive one-on-one interview for Action Network, where he talked about some of the most significant story lines in the Big Easy with training camp one week away.
Brock believes confidence will be a major factor in Alvin Kamara’s 2026 season following the Saints making the splash signing of running back Travis Etienne Jr this offseason in free agency. He said today’s NFL creates unique challenges for veteran players as teams increasingly turn to free agency and trades to...

For years the Packers have been one of the youngest teams in the NFL.
They still are, but their young core — especially the ultra-young players — has begun to age up a bit. This is no longer baby’s first NFL season for most of the youngsters, who have grown into significant roles, by and large.
But where does that leave the developmental group, the true young up-and-comers who are mostly potential at this point? If you ask ESPN, at least, it leaves the Packers pretty close to the bottom of the league.

NFL Trade Rumors
We’re truly in a brutal time in the NFL news cycle.
Training camps haven’t opened up yet and free agency lists are more or less barren — unless you’re looking at the media landscape and/or previously worked for ESPN.
This time of year lends itself to preseason predictions. Sometimes they’re bold, sometimes they’re beautiful, but in the case of Jarrett Bailey’s piece that just dropped on main, they’re a bit of both.
There’s no shortage of Vikings-adjacent angles therein. Bailey has Stefon Diggs signing with the Dallas Cowboys as his first prediction, for one.
One particularly bothersome prediction — at...
