The Pittsburgh Steelers loaded up at wide receiver this offseason, trading for Michael Pittman Jr. and drafting Germie Bernard. That position has been a weakness for them for the past few years, and they aimed to change that. However, their presence figures to eat up opportunities in the wide receiver room, and that might not […]

The Las Vegas Raiders are widely expected to have one or two roster spots at wide receiver up for grabs during training camp, giving undrafted free agent signing Corey Rucker from Arkansas State a chance to fill out the depth chart. It helps that he’s tied with Cian Slone as the Raiders’ highest-paid UDFA in the 2026 class, per Spotrac.
Rucker had an interesting college career, spending the 2020 and 2021 seasons with the Red Wolves before transferring to South Carolina for a year and then returning to Arkansas State. He was productive during his five years in Jonesboro, collecting...

The Los Angeles Rams may have paid a high price to acquire Myles Garrett in a trade with the Browns, but the actual cost to the team in money is a discount. According to OvertheCap’s Jason Fitzgerald, the Rams only owe $99 million in cash to Garrett over the next three seasons. An enormous sum to us, but a bargain for a pass rusher of Garrett’s caliber.
“Garrett’s contract is pretty much designed to ensure that he is a member of the roster thru the 2028 season, which is the final year of the contract with any meaningful guarantee....

JUNE 3: Kamara was at the Saints’ facility today, as noted by Matthew Paras of NOLA.com. That marked his first appearance for voluntary offseason work, something Kamara usually declines to take part in. As the wait for clarity in this case continues, team and player are at least managing to avoid a public rift.
JUNE 1: With A.J. Brown and (perhaps unexpectedly) Myles Garrett having been traded, focus will now shift to Saints RB Alvin Kamara. We heard yesterday that while other teams have expressed interest in the veteran, the Saints have yet to determine whether they’ll move on from...

Now that the Minnesota Vikings have officially hired Nolan Teasley to be the new general manager, this is a good time to review the Vikings’ organizational structure, at least as it relates to football-related decisions (and leaving the non-football parts out).
The basic leadership structure hasn’t really changed much since Rick Spielman was named general manager back in 2012, although the office occupants have changed over the years. But even then, roughly half of the football operations and scouting staff date from the Spielman era- or earlier in a few cases.
Nevertheless, there are aspects of the power structure that...

The head-spinning kicking carousel continued for the New York Jets on Wednesday, when they signed former All-Pro Jason Sanders and released Younghoe Koo. This after Koo was signed last week and rookie Lenny Krieg was cut, after he outlasted fellow undrafted free agent Will Ferrin, who was released in May after kicking for six days in rookie camp.
Got all that?
And that’s not even mentioning that the frontrunner in the kicking competition this offseason is Cade York, who missed part of OTAs last week with a groin issue.
Nor does this even get into their history with kickers. The...

Commanders QB Jayden Daniels has been working hard to ensure the team improves on last season’s results, and G Sam Cosmi and HC Dan Quinn have taken notice.
“It left a bitter taste in my mouth,” Daniels said of last season, via ESPN. “*I mean, it sucked. … [It was] a miserable feeling to not go out and do what I do on a daily basis and having setbacks. I love the offense, I love what Blough is doing, love how he’s creating and designing different things. It’s awesome to see his creative mind; we’re building this thing...

The New York Giants started the offseason with not much wide receiver depth, and just in one week, they’ve rebuilt that room with several veterans. Odell Beckham Jr. is one of the receivers the Giants signed, and it was a long-awaited reunion between both sides.
Beckham will do more than just catch passes for the Giants this season, as he’ll be looked to be one of the veterans to help the young players. He and Malik Nabers already have a relationship due to their LSU ties, and Beckham was asked how he could be valuable to the young receiver this...

In a recent media availability, Cleveland Browns head coach Todd Monken spoke about potentially meeting Deion Sanders. Sanders is renowned as an NFL legend and the head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes, but he’s more importantly the father of Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders.
Brown expressed his excitement to meet Sanders and even disclosed that they had initially planned to meet before, but a commercial shoot for Sanders got in the way.
“First of all, I can’t wait. You know, I, first of all, got a lot of respect, uh, for Coach Sanders, obviously as a player, but also what he’s...

NFL Trade Rumors
The New York Jets have signed kicker Jason Sanders, per reports, just one day after he was released by the New York Giants. It was a surprise when the Giants released Sanders in a corresponding roster move to make room for wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster.
We surmised that Sanders’ high trajectory kicks played into the decision to move on from him in the Giants’ kicking competition. That was seemingly supported by John Harbaugh’s comments following the Giants’ practice on Wednesday.
“It’s windy out here, it always has been,” Harbaugh said. “It’s a tough environment to kick in and his style...
