Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians isn't opposed to the idea of reuniting with New Orleans Saints impending free-agent quarterback Jameis Winston, but Arians also doesn't necessarily think signing with Tampa is Winston's best option on the open market. Even though Arians doesn't see many veteran starters becoming available via trade this offseason, it […]

Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said he's not getting trade offers from other general managers on quarterback Aaron Rodgers at this week's NFL scouting combine.

Denver Broncos general manager George Paton said that he'd like to have impending free-agent running back Melvin Gordon III back in 2022. "I've had really good discussions with Melvin.

Browns Hope To Re-Sign Jadeveon Clowney

The Cleveland Browns are hoping to re-sign pass-rusher Jadeveon Clowney, who had nine sacks in just 14 games last year. However, Clowney typically operates on his own timetable, and it's anyone's guess as to where he'll wind up in 2022. Given his nine-sack season, he'll likely command a deal in the double-digit millions. Pro Football […]

Could Browns Move On From J.C. Tretter?

Cleveland Browns center J.C. Tretter ranked second among qualifying centers in 2021, but his salary cap number for 2022 sits at $9.86 million.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield (shoulder) is ahead of schedule in his rehab from surgery to fix the labrum in his left shoulder on Jan. 19, according to a source.

James Bradberry A Trade Candidate

SNY's Ralph Vacchiano is putting a 19.3% chance that New York Giants cornerback James Bradberry stays with the team. Bradberry is the team's top cornerback despite having a down 2021 season.

Saquon Barkley Not In Giants Long-Term Plans?

SNY's Ralph Vacchiano doesn't believe that New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is in the team's long-term plans.

With the Giants needing to […]
