The Cleveland Browns shook up the NFL world on Monday when they stunningly traded star defensive end Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams.

While you’re never going to be able to get an equal return for a player like Garrett, the Browns still did pretty well for themselves. Jared Verse came back to Cleveland in the trade along with draft capital, giving the Browns a building block for the future on the edge.

Verse got to Cleveland on Wednesday and got straight to work in the offseason program. He talked about his initial shocked reaction to the trade, but...

The Dolphins continue to shuffle paperwork for their picks from the 2026 NFL Draft. A day after landing the signatures of 10 drafted rookies, Miami has followed up with the completion of negotiations with both its first-round picks. While the team made an announcement for the signing of No. 12 overall pick Kadyn Proctor this afternoon, it was NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero that announced No. 27 overall pick Chris Johnson‘s signing.

As a three-star recruit out of Roosevelt HS (CA), Johnson didn’t have a ton of options, but he chose to stay fairly close to home when committing to San...

The Chicago Bears are in the midst of their final voluntary organized team activity (OTA) running from June 2-4, and with the media at Halas Hall today, we got some updates.

Both defensive end Dayo Odeyingbo and linebacker T.J. Edwards were at practice today, although neither participated in the team portion. Odeyingbo tore his Achilles in November and Edwards broke his ankle in January. Their participation is a positive sign towards them being ready for the season.

Not at practice were nickel Kyler Gordon, defensive back Cam Lewis, or defensive end Montez Sweat.

Regarding Gordon, head coach Ben Johnson said,...

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara unexpectedly showed up for voluntary offseason training on Wednesday, saying he was "literally" lying in bed a day earlier when he thought to himself, "Eh, I’ll go tomorrow." Kamara, who usually skips optional team workouts to train on his own, and who had missed the previous week's work at Saints headquarters, seemed to relish the opportunity to surprise teammates and coaches. "Obviously, a little bit unexpected," coach Kellen Moore said. "It's good to see him," Moore added. "Excited to be able to spend a little time with him, see where's he's at." Kamara,...

It’s been a bizarre time for Brandon Aiyuk, as he is technically still on the San Francisco 49ers roster despite being on the reserve list while working his way back from a knee injury and demanding a new contract. With the latest news about the star wide receiver revealing he has a warrant out for his arrest, former NFL superstar Dez Bryant shares his take on everything that is going on.

Bryant seems to believe there is some kind of smear campaign against the 28-year-old wideout. After the news broke that there is a warrant out for Aiyuk’s arrest on...

The Minnesota Vikings are handing the keys of the franchise to one of the sharpest young minds in football. On Wednesday morning, the team officially introduced Nolan Teasley as their next new general manager. Teasley arrives in Minnesota after a 13-year tenure with the Seattle Seahawks working under general manager John Schneider. Long described as Schneider’s right-hand man, Teasley now gets his opportunity to run his own front office one season after helping the Seahawks win Super Bowl LX. "I want to thank the Seahawks organization and John Schneider for preparing me for this opportunity," Teasley said Wednesday at his...

While the Los Angeles Rams celebrated landing two-time Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett in a blockbuster trade with the Cleveland Browns on Monday, rising edge rusher Jared Verse found himself going from the Super Bowl favorite to a team projected to have one of the worst records in 2026. Verse, who was a two-time Pro Bowler with the Rams after they took him with the 19th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, admitted that he was initially disappointed in the move during his introductory press conference on Wednesday. "It caught me by surprise. I love LA. I...

Wednesday’s minor NFL transactions:

Dallas Cowboys

• Signed: WR Jaden Smith

New York Jets

• Waived (with injury designation): WR Da’Quan Felton

Philadelphia Eagles

• Signed: LB Chandler Martin

After only two days, Felton and Martin see their fortunes reversed. Martin is rejoining the team that waived him on Monday. The Jets will return Felton to the waiver wire two days after signing him with the apparent intent of reverting him to their injured reserve once he clears waivers.

Last night, I posted the answers to the questions I asked about which former or current Miami Dolphins player you would choose to have a sit-down conversation with, given the chance. Among your answers, a few of you mentioned actual meetings you had with mostly former Dolphins players or coaches. But what of the rest of you? Others among us must have stories of meeting a player here or there just by chance. If, for whatever reason, you never had the chance to meet someone tied to your Miami Dolphins, maybe you have an interaction with another NFL player somewhere...

49ers

49ers HC Kyle Shanahan said that he wants to minimize RB Christian McCaffrey‘s usage and admitted that he was on the field for too long of stretches.

“Last year was the worst we had been at it,” Shanahan said, via Niners Wire. “It’s one of the most amazing years I’ve seen by a guy in terms of just heart. He’s just incredible.”

Shanahan added that McCaffrey picked up the slack and was a weapon in both the passing game and running game as the team suffered multiple injuries at receiver.

“*The fact that he could get his body...

The Cleveland Browns have an interesting quarterback situation this season, to say the least. Head coach Todd Monken needs to choose from one of Deshaun Watson, Shedeur Sanders, or Dillon Gabriel to play as his starter under center. However, Monken’s latest comments have fans thinking Gabriel might already be out of the race.

On Wednesday, the 60-year-old head coach stated that he and the Browns have two starting quarterbacks on the roster, according to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN. Monken did not provide any names. So, the possible shot taken at Gabriel is complete speculation.

“We got two starting-level quarterbacks,” said...
