ESPN to release behind-the-scenes Chiefs documentary made by the same team as ‘The Last Dance’ - Daily Mail
ESPN has announced it is developing a new behind-the-scenes documentary series focusing on the Kansas City Chiefs. The network revealed the series will be produced by ‘much of the team’ behind the smash-hit Michael Jordan and Chicago Bulls documentary ‘The Last Dance’. The crew was given extensive access to Travis Kelce, Patrick Mahomes and their teammates during the 2024 NFL season, when they were trying to make NFL history with a third successive Super Bowl win. However, the year ended in heartbreak for Kansas City after a crushing 40-22 Super Bowl defeat by the Philadelphia Eagles in New Orleans. The six-episode docuseries is expected to premiere later this year on both ESPN and Disney+.
Eagles to host UCLA edge rusher on pre-draft visit - BGN
Time to add another prospect to BGN’s Philadelphia Eagles’ pre-draft visits tracker leading up to the 2025 NFL Draft. The Birds will soon be hosting UCLA edge rusher Oluwafemi Oladejo at the NovaCare Complex, according to himself (via The Draft Network’s Justin Melo). Oladejo is the No. 111 prospect ranked by Pro Football Focus. The 21-year-old originally played for Cal from 2021-2022 before transferring to UCLA. He changed positions from off-ball linebacker to edge rusher (a reverse Zack Baun, if you will) during the 2024 season. Oladejo finished last year with 14 TFLs and 4.5 sacks.

Well, as a matter of fact, Brown was still recovering from his ACL tear to start the season. He started the season on the PUP list and missed the first five games. Having said that, it’s also concerning that as the season progressed Tristin McCollum was the first safety off the bench whenever anyone went down, and it’s not as if McCollum was crushing it when he got his opportunities. Brown is entering his third season. He showed some legitimate promise as a rookie in 2023. He’ll be healthy for camp this year, which could help in terms of Fangio’s trust in him.
Eagles’ A.J. Brown offers some self-help advice to his young son: ‘It’s going to hurt to be great’ - Inquirer
“It’s all right,” said Brown, whose first love was baseball and led to the San Diego Padres drafting him in the 19th round in 2016. “It’s going to hurt to be great. It’s going to be OK though, you understand? You’ve got to grind for it, that’s your first lesson. You understand it’s going to hurt, it hurts to be great, son. She’s going to be...
