12 Offensive Linemen Run Sub-5.00-Second 40s

There were officially 12 offensive linemen at this year's NFL scouting combine to run a sub-5.00-second 40-yard dash on Friday.

On Thursday, […]

Still No Update On Calvin Ridley

Atlanta Falcons general manager Terry Fontenot and head coach Arthur Smith didn't have an update to give on wide receiver Calvin Ridley's future in Atlanta at the NFL scouting combine this week. The Falcons picked up Ridley's fifth-year option in 2021, but he played in only five games last season while dealing with a personal […]

Teams Expressing Interest In Derek Carr

Multiple NFL teams have expressed interest in Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr as they continue to look for available signal-callers this offseason. The interest is expected to heat up as long as Carr's contract situation remains as is. The 30-year-old is unlikely to be available, but that could change if a team blows the […]

Cowboys Want To Bring Back Cedrick Wilson

The Dallas Cowboys want to re-sign impending free-agent wide receiver Cedrick Wilson. The Cowboys are expected to trade or release Amari Cooper, who was slated to make $20 million in 2022.

Commanders Offer Multiple Picks For Russell Wilson

The Kansas City Chiefs are working on a contract extension for wide receiver Tyreek Hill, with the structure of the deal expected to be more "normal" than last time.

Giants Not Expected To Trade Saquon Barkley

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is not expected to be traded.

Daniel Faalele Tips The Scales At 384 Pounds

Minnesota offensive tackle Daniel Faalele measured in at 6-foot-8 and 384 pounds at the NFL scouting combine on Friday, making him one of the biggest players in combine history.

J.C. Jackson Likely To Hit The Open Market

New England Patriots impending free-agent cornerback J.C. Jackson is expected to hit the free-agent market, rather than receive the franchise tag. One of the best playmaking defensive backs in the NFL will surely generate significant interest on the open market. The 26-year-old is coming off a Pro Bowl season in 2021 in which he generated […]

Bills Give Cole Beasley Permission To Seek Trade

The Buffalo Bills have given wide receiver Cole Beasley permission to seek a trade, although general manager Brandon Beane said on Thursday that the Bills would welcome him back and "no door has been closed."

Cowboys Will Try To Trade Amari Cooper

The Dallas Cowboys are expected to part ways with wide receiver Amari Cooper and they've had trade discussions with receiver-needy teams.

If the Cowboys cut […]

Ty Fryfogle Tweaks His Hamstring

Indiana wide receiver Ty Fryfogle (hamstring) ran a 4.49-second 40-yard dash and hit 39 inches on his vertical jump at the NFL scouting combine on Thursday, but he shut it down for the rest of the day after tweaking his hamstring.

Drake London Doesn't Run Due To Injury

USC wide receiver Drake London (ankle), who is ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr.'s and Todd McShay's top-ranked receiver, didn't run the 40-yard dash at the NFL scouting combine on Thursday because he's still working his way back from a fractured right ankle that he suffered in October. Despite his injury that caused him to miss the […]

Desmond Ridder Impresses With Speed At Combine

Cincinnati quarterback Desmond Ridder had a 4.52-second 40-yard dash at the NFL scouting combine on Thursday, which was better than 12 wide receivers. The 6-foot-3, 211-pound signal-caller had accuracy issues last year, but some scouts think he can correct it with more consistent footwork in the pocket. With that said, it's likely that some teams […]

Browns Likely To Take WR With First-Round Pick

The Cleveland Browns appear poised to select the best available wide receiver at pick No. 13 overall in the first round of this year's draft instead of a quarterback. If the Browns do go with a QB in this draft, it could be a developmental prospect in the later rounds. In addition to likely taking […]

Browns Reinforce Plans To Start Baker Mayfield

The Cleveland Browns met with the representatives for quarterback Baker Mayfield at the NFL scouting combine on Thursday, and the team reinforced its plans to start him in 2022 and not replace him with a veteran QB.

Tyquan Thornton Leads Fast Group Of WR 40 Times

Baylor wide receiver Tyquan Thornton led all players at his position on Thursday by clocking an unofficial 4.21-second 40-yard dash at the NFL scouting combine.

Kenny Pickett's Hands Measure 8.5 Inches

Pittsburgh quarterback Kenny Pickett, who could be the first QB selected in the first round of this year's draft, had his hands measured at 8 1/2 inches on Thursday at the NFL scouting combine.

Steelers To Look At Jimmy Garoppolo?

The Pittsburgh Steelers will look anywhere and everywhere this offseason when it comes to replacing retired quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, and San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo is a name to keep an eye on in their search.

Odell Beckham Jr. Expected Back In November

Los Angeles Rams impending free-agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (knee) is expected to be ready to return from his torn ACL in November.

Kirk Cousins Not Expected To Give A Hometown Discount

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins isn't expected to give the team a hometown discount if they look to sign him to a contract extension.

Signs Pointing To Aaron Rodgers Returning

Signs have been pointing towards Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers playing for the team in 2022. Head coach Matt LaFleur said that Rodgers played a "significant role" in the Packers hiring old quarterbacks coach Tom Clements. Relations between Rodgers and the front office have been much better this offseason after general manager Brian Gutekunst […]

Michael Gallup Wants To Re-Sign

The belief is that Dallas Cowboys impending free-agent wide receiver Michael Gallup wants to re-sign with the team this offseason. It makes even more sense for the Cowboys to bring Gallup back now that they are likely to release Amari Cooper before the start of the 2022 league year. Gallup had surgery on Feb. 10 […]

Cowboys Likely To Release Amari Cooper

The Dallas Cowboys are "likely" to release wide receiver Amari Cooper by the start of the new league year, according to league sources.

Andrew Booth Won't Take Part In On-Field Drills

Clemson defensive back Andrew Booth (quadriceps), one of the draft's top players at his position, will not be taking part in on-field drills at the NFL scouting combine this week due to a strained quadriceps muscle he suffered a few days ago while training for the 40-yard dash, according to a source. It's unclear if […]
