Cam Newton, Mac Jones Set For Legitimate QB Battle

New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton and rookie first-rounder Mac Jones are set for a legitimate QB competition this summer. Jones, 22, was fast-tracked in organized team activities and mandatory minicamp and, up until the final day of minicamp, even looked better than Newton. Jones has had his rookie mistakes, but he's been accurate and […]

Patrick Mahomes Focusing On Short And Intermediate Passes

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes focused more on short and intermediate passes during organized team activities and mandatory minicamp after re-watching tape of the Super Bowl loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Mahomes completed 64 percent of his 130 passes between 10 and 20 yards downfield last regular season, but he thinks he can […]

Quarterback Best Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis

On the field, quarterbacks are the most crucial position of all. In fantasy football, not so much. This may be especially true in best-ball leagues where the highest win rates don't usually associate with the best passers. This seems counterintuitive since there is no possibility to stream QB or pick up an injury replacement off […]

Baker Mayfield's Extension Talks Could Stretch Into Season

The Cleveland Browns and quarterback Baker Mayfield's agents haven't had substantive contract-extension talks, so work on a new deal could stretch into October. There is no sense of urgency on either side to get something done before training camp or the start of the season because they know it will happen. The Browns have already […]

Joe Burrow Has Looked Good

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow's every move during offseason practices was closely followed, and coaches and teammates have been raving about the increased velocity on his passes.

Former Washington Football Team offensive tackle Morgan Moses is signing a one-year deal worth $3.6 million in base salary with the New York Jets on Friday, according to a source.

Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase Haven't Missed A Beat

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow said his connection with rookie wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase is "right back to where it was" after the two were a record-setting duo at LSU. Their pre-established chemistry factored into the Bengals decision to draft Chase at No. 5 overall in this year's NFL draft. The two studied film together […]

Andre Dillard On A Mission

Philadelphia Eagles offensive tackle Andre Dillard (biceps) says he has a fire in him like never before after he missed all of last season with a biceps injury.

DeShone Kizer Ready To Compete For Backup Job

Tennessee Titans quarterback DeShone Kizer has looked good in organized team activities and minicamp this offseason, especially on midrange routes across the middle. Kizer worked only with quarterbacks coach Pat O'Hara last year as the team's "quarantine QB," and his quick decision-making in offseason practices is evidence that he has a strong understanding of the […]

It's Been A Smooth Transition For Carson Wentz

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Carson Wentz didn't have a great relationship with his teammates while with the Philadelphia Eagles, but according to those inside the Colts organization, the transition this offseason has been a smooth one.

Bears To Give Justin Fields A Lot Of Preseason Reps

The Chicago Bears are expected to give rookie quarterback Justin Fields a lot of work in preseason games this fall.

Baker Mayfield's Extension Could Come This Summer

The agents for Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield don't plan to drag out a contract extension with their client and aren't opposed to getting something done this summer.

Coaching Matters: 2021 New England Patriots Coaching Staff Preview

Cowboys Offensive Line Set To Return Three Key Pieces

Dallas Cowboys offensive lineman Tyron Smith (neck), Zack Martin (calf, concussion) and La'el Collins (hip) didn't do much on-field work during spring practices, but all three are expected to be full participants when training camp begins at the end of July. The trio combined to miss 36 games in a lost 2020 season. The Cowboys […]

Justin Herbert: New Offense Puts A Lot On QB

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert, the league's Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2020, said the team's new offense under coordinator Joe Lombardi puts a lot more on his plate.

Trai Turner Says He's 100 Percent

Free-agent offensive guard Trai Turner said that he's 100 percent healthy after being limited to just nine games with the Los Angeles Chargers last season. The Chargers acquired Turner in 2020 in a trade with the Carolina Panthers, but the 28-year-old missed seven of the first eight weeks due to injury before returning for the […]

Sean McVay Impressed With Matthew Stafford

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay couldn't be more happy with the team's new quarterback, Matthew Stafford. "Bro, this dude's a bad MF-er," McVay said, laughing. "Whatever people say about him, as good as it can be, he's even better than advertised. It makes sense to him. The guy's ability to see the game, […]

We've had a couple of months to fully digest what happened with NFL free agency and see how the NFL Draft impacted things, so now it's time to reflect on some of the changes around the NFL. No player leaves one team for another and finds himself playing the exact same role. New teammates, new […]

Trai Turner Visits With Steelers

Five-time Pro Bowl offensive guard Trai Turner finished up his visit with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Friday, according to a source.
