New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson said he has learned from his two arrests in less than a year and has grown and matured as a person.

Terrelle Pryor Up In The Air For Training Camp

New York Jets wide receiver Terrelle Pryor (ankle) is out of his walking boot, but his status for training camp next month is up in the air at this time. A similar ankle issue limited Pryor to just nine games with Washington last year and turned him into a free-agent bust. It's not a good […]

Sam Darnold An Option To Start In Week 1

New York Jets offensive coordinator Jeremy Bates said that rookie quarterback Sam Darnold is in the running to be the Week 1 starter. “Are we giving him bits and pieces of the offense or are we throwing everything at him?

Baltimore Ravens players seem to believe that quarterback Joe Flacco is more motivated this offseason.

Rex Burkhead, James White Splitting First-Team Work

New England Patriots running backs Rex Burkhead and James White have taken the majority of the first-team repetitions in offseason workouts.

The elite tight […]
