Nick Herbig is the man signing a $100 million contract, but he has plenty of people to thank for helping him get there. No one more than his brother and one-time teammate Nate Herbig. During a Wednesday press conference on the heels of his extension, Nick became emotional thinking about what his brother has meant […]

The San Francisco 49ers got another obvious reason to stop playing around and just release disgruntled wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk.

Over the last year, Aiyuk has gone from one of the core members of the 49ers roster to a pariah in the locker room after he distanced himself from the team and missed all of the 2026 NFL season. Well, the team got another reason to stop waiting and just release him on Wednesday.

ESPN’s Nick Wagoner broke the news that the Santa Clara County District Attorney’s office issued a warrant for the arrest of Aiyuk on a misdemeanor charge...

Last January, a month after Packers outside linebacker Micah Parsons suffered a torn ACL, the five-time Pro Bowler expressed hope he would make his 2026 debut in Week 3 or 4. That would have meant returning in late September or the first week of October, but it is now clear Parsons will not make it back that early.

Speaking with Ryan Wood of USA Today and other reporters Wednesday, Parsons revealed he underwent a meniscus cleanup in addition to ACL surgery. Parsons added he will not consider coming back until he is at least nine months removed from the...

Watt said Wednesday via Post-Gazette Steelers on YouTube. “We’re doing things much […]

After years of speculation and perhaps wishful thinking from contending teams like the Philadelphia Eagles, the Cleveland Browns finally traded Myles Garrett. Many were surprised just by the fact that the Browns actually parted ways with their franchise player after a record-breaking season. Others were taken aback by the trade return.

In return for trading the two-time Defensive Player of the Year, the Browns recovered a 2027 first-round pick, 2028 second-round pick, plus a conditional 2029 third-round pick that can be upgraded to a first (with specific conditions), and pass-rusher Jared Verse.

While Verse has yet to top eight sacks...

The Green Bay Packers are hoping to take another step forward in 2026 after losing in brutal fashion in the Wild Card round against the Chicago Bears this past season. The Packers played that game without Micah Parsons, who suffered a torn ACL injury against the Denver Broncos earlier in the year, ending his season.

Recently, the Packers got a critical update on Parsons’ recovery process as the 2026 season approaches.

“Five months into his ACL rehab, Micah Parsons said he has four more months to go, saying that they have a strict nine-month rule especially for players who had...

Offensive linemen like Pittsburgh Steelers first-round pick Max Iheanachor can’t truly show off their skill set until the pads come on in August. Still, he can put his energy and focus to good use to hit the ground running once drills fully become live. Speaking to reporters Wednesday following a minicamp practice, Iheanachor outlined his […]

The Seattle Seahawks may still be flying high after winning Super Bowl 60 earlier this year. Seattle faced some adversity this offseason, with many players leaving for greener pastures during NFL free agency. But one Seahawks player is still confident that they are one of the league’s best teams.

Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp issued a warning to the rest of the league during a recent interview. He explained that Seattle is going to keep doing their thing as they attempt to repeat as Super Bowl champions.

“We’re going to lean into doing the simple things at a very high...

Over the next few months, we’re breaking down all of the undrafted free agents signed by the Jets since April’s draft. However, today we are focusing on a recent veteran addition; kicker Younghoe Koo.

The 31-year old Koo is listed at 5’9″ and 185 pounds and was undrafted out of Georgia Southern in 2017. After getting cut one month into his career, Koo was out of the league for two seasons but then became an inspirational story as he ended up as a pro bowler. He spent seven seasons with the Falcons before being released last season.

Background

Koo was...

According to Zack Rosenblatt, the Jets are waiving K Younghoe Koo and signing K Jason Sanders in a corresponding move.

Rosenblatt notes that Sanders will compete with Cade York for the starting job in the Jets’ offseason program.

It’s a quick move for Sanders after being released by the Giants yesterday, allowing him to stay put in New York. Koo, meanwhile, was just signed by the Giants in recent weeks.

Sanders, 30, is a former seventh-round pick of the Dolphins back in 2018. He was entering the final year of his four-year rookie contract when Miami signed him to a...
