The latest addition to the Washington Commanders’ offensive line, Lucas Niang, officially joined the team’s 90-man roster on Wednesday. The move comes just one day after head coach Dan Quinn confirmed the surprise retirement of veteran guard Nate Herbig.
Niang, a third-round pick by the Kansas City Chiefs in the 2020 NFL Draft, arrives at Washington’s camp with 33 career NFL games and nine starts. All his starts came during the 2021 season, when he opened seven of the Chiefs’ first nine games at correct tackle before shifting to the left side. His NFL debut was delayed due to his...
Cowboys QB Joe Milton said he preferred being traded to Dallas from New England and was excited to work with QB Dak Prescott.
“Definitely, I preferred it,” Milton said, via the Cowboys’ website. *“That was something me and my team put together. They were able to get it done, I really didn’t have to do much or say much. So just shout out to my agent, that’s pretty much it. Dak is a great leader,. All respect to him. He literally goes out of his way to help me, no matter if the coach is talking in the...
The versatile 4th year defensive back is primed for a breakout year under his new coaching staff.
Kyler Gordon, the first pick of Ryan Poles’ tenure as GM of the Chicago Bears, was rewarded with a lucrative contract extension entering his fourth season as a pro. Not a surprise after hearing both his new head coach and defensive coordinator speak glowingly of him this off-season.
“We are fired up to secure Kyler as a mainstay on our defense and a dependable component of our team,” Ben Johnson said after Gordon was extended. “Our staff cannot wait to get to work...
The extraordinarily rare four-man quarterback competition unfolding in Cleveland is ongoing, but adjustments are being made. Kenny Pickett is out with a hamstring injury, giving Joe Flacco a wider runway to reacquire the job.
While Pickett recovers, Kevin Stefanski said (via ESPN.com’s Daniel Oyefusi) Flacco will take the bulk of the first-team reps. Flacco did not take as many offseason reps, but because of his 2023 Browns showing, Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer indicates he received what amounted to a first-round bye in this battle ahead of training camp.
Flacco proved he remained a capable starter during a serviceable but unremarkable...
Some NFL careers conclude with adulation and a clear understanding of what a given player meant to the league, as well as the teams he played for. Others conclude with more questions than answers.
In what could be his final season, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will have a chance to amend his legacy. While he has done more than enough to stake his claim as one of the best regular-season quarterbacks in NFL history, his larger footprint is mostly up for debate given his rocky departure from the Green Bay Packers and underwhelming tenure with the New York Jets....
When the Steelers signed Darius Slay, many expected him to take on something of a mentorship role. Considering the young cornerbacks on the roster, including Joey Porter Jr. and Cory Trice Jr., many see Slay as someone who can teach them a few things. Now, with all the talent in the room, Slay is hoping […]

Veteran LB Shaq Thompson is entering his first year with the Bills after spending 10 years with the Carolina Panthers. Thompson is going into Buffalo’s training camp just trying to make the team.

“I played that role before,” Thompson said. *“I want to win. At...
T.J. Watt and Myles Garrett have long had a rivalry on and off the field. When Watt found out that Garrett was going to win the 2023 NFL Defensive Player of the Year award, he skipped the ceremony entirely. That didn’t sit right with Garrett.
“I’ve never complained about the trophy not being in my house, and vice versa, he shouldn’t be feeling two ways about it going to me,” Garrett said. “We’re just gonna play the game. I don’t play against T.J. He doesn’t play against me. We’re playing to do what we’re supposed to, go out and do...
