The first broadcast for NFL legend Tom Brady since becoming minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders was a tight-rope walk, according to the New York Times’ Andrew Marchand. Brady was officially made a minority owner last week and there were big questions as to how it would affect his broadcasting ability when it was…
Las Vegas Raiders rookie tight end Brock Bowers was once again a reliable weapon for the Silver and Black on Sunday as he finished the loss to the Los Angeles Rams as the game’s receiving leader with 93 yards on 10 receptions. For the fourth time this season, Bowers has been nominated for the NFL’s Pepsi…
Rookie quarterback Drake Maye performed admirably across his first two regular-season starts. Still, he couldn’t prevent the New England Patriots from falling to 1-6 on what appears to be a lost campaign for the organization ahead of Halloween. During a Monday appearance on Boston sports radio station WEEI, Maye spoke about helping teammates in ways that go…
The New England Patriots’ trip to London ended in disappointment, and with plenty of bad football being played by the team. Its rookie players were not immune to it either, as the group as a whole had a rather rough go versus the Jacksonville Jaguars — with one notable exception in the form of quarterback Drake Maye. With…
The New England Patriots have multiple wide receivers they could potentially trade before the NFL deadline, and perhaps the most notable of all is Kendrick Bourne. Bourne is actually under contract through 2026, but with the Patriots in rebuilding mode, it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense for them to keep him. There should be plenty of teams interested in…
The Detroit Lions are in the market for an edge rusher ahead of the Nov. 5 NFL trade deadline after the season-ending injuries to Marcus Davenport and Aidan Hutchinson that have left the pass-rush shorthanded. Recently, head coach Dan Campbell sounded fairly confident that the team would at least come away with someone to address their need, but…
The Lions knocked off the Vikings in Week 7, giving Minnesota their first loss of the season. Detroit QB Jared Goff outlined why they were able to have success against a strong team that plays a complicated brand of defense. “I say composure,” Goff said, via ESPN’s Eric Woodyard. “Mostly toward the offense. There’s a lot of stuff…
The Green Bay Packers are 5-2 and right in the middle of a loaded NFL North. The NFL trade deadline is on November 5 and Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst could be active. When listing “nightmare” trade proposals the Packers should avoid, FanSided’s Rucker Haringey proposed this trade that sends Rashan Gary to the Detroit Lions: Packers…
A few weeks ago, we talked about how unproductive Rashan Gary had been. And he can’t be. Because the Green Bay Packers made a huge commitment to him giving that four-year extension, and a big part of the defensive structure goes through how Gary affects the offense. Good for the Packers, Gary has been much more efficient…
As many as 11 players from the 2021 draft class agreed to rookie scale extensions with their teams before the Oct. 21 deadline. This list includes Alperen Sengun and Jalen Green of the Rockets, Franz Wagner and Jalen Suggs of the Magic and sharpshooting wing Trey Murphy III of the Pelicans. Even the Warriors extended Moses Moody….
With the nickname “Slim Reaper,” it may seem like Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant is immune to pressure. But despite his two NBA Finals MVP awards and 14 All-Star Game appearances, Durant admits to feeling pressure. Who is turning up the heat on Durant? None other than the greatest player of all time, Michael Jordan. Speaking on…
The New York Knicks are going into the season a little banged up as only 15 players are on the roster, including three two-way players in Jacob Toppin, Ariel Hukporti and Kevin McCullar Jr. This means that the Knicks have three open roster spots going into the season, and with Mitchell Robinson and Precious Achiuwa also sidelined for the…
