Horse Tracks: NFL may try to entice even more kickoff returns in 2025

Horse Tracks: NFL may try to entice even more kickoff returns in 2025

The NFL is set to propose touchbacks on kickoffs coming out to the 35 yard line. Will that increase the kickoff return rate?

In the 2024 NFL season, the league saw a kickoff return rate of ~33% up from ~22% in 2023. This increase was due to the complicated changes in kickoff rules involving the all-important “landing zone” as well as some tweaks to where the ball was spotted.

It looks like this season the NFL is not content with what they saw in 2024. The competition committee will be looking at one more slight tweak to put the spot...

Horse Tracks: Should a new contract for Nik Bonitto be a priority for the Broncos right now?

Edge rusher is a key position in today’s NFL - especially in the pass-heavy AFC West. So signing Nik Bonitto to a long-term deal sooner rather than later should be a no-brainer.

Good morning, Broncos Country!

Pro Football & Sports Network predicted every NFL team’s biggest need post-free agency, and it may be a slight surprise that Denver’s “position of need” came on ... defense.

After all, Denver added ex-49er defensive standouts Dre Greenlaw and Talanoa Hufanga, while also re-signing run-stuffing tackle D.J. Jones, as the bell to open free agency rang.

And this was for a defense that...

Future Broncos: Texas tight end Gunnar Helm

Can the draft get here already?

With the free agency flurry of activity and the draft still another month away, Broncos fans are finding meaningful news hard to come by. If prospect visits and speculation are what attracts you to Broncos football, this is your season.

In years past, this was when we’d see reports of Russell Wilson visiting children’s hospitals or players getting arrested for all sort of nefarious deeds.

But not this year.

Nope, it’s steady as she goes for now. An even-keeled offseason to match the even-keeled coach. As a blogger, it’s not the most exciting time...
