By this point, everyone knows what happened between Antonio Brown and the Pittsburgh Steelers. Now on the Oakland Raiders, it’s safe to say Brown isn’t a big fan of the Steelers anymore. He has called out Ben Roethlisberger and JuJu Smith-Schuster on multiple occasions in fact. That hasn’t stopped Smith-Schuster from trying to keep the […]

Last offseason, the Minnesota Vikings signed quarterback Kirk Cousins to a massive deal full of guaranteed money.

The Washington Redskins made a major splash in free agency this year, signing safety Landon Collins to a six-year deal. This would’ve been a massive move no matter what, but the fact that he comes from the division rival New York Giants made it all that much more newsworthy. Well the fun doesn’t stop there. […]

Superstar Kawhi Leonard broke the internet last year with his incredibly robotic awkward laugh. Now his Toronto Raptors are up 3-1 against the Golden State Warriors in the NBA Finals. During a press conference, Golden State star Klay Thompson was asked a question about the upcoming game and responded with a laugh of his own. […]

Toronto Raptors superstar Kawhi Leonard is one of the most talked about players in the NBA. It’s not always about his elite skill that he’s being brought up though. Leonard is also famous for being one of the most “robotic” players in the NBA. This was true even when he was with the San Antonio […]

Pat Connaughton has had a lot of friendships in the NBA. According to Eric Nehm of the Athletic, there’s a special bond he has with Damian Lillard. Pat Connaughton may be with the Milwaukee Bucks now, but he started his career with the Portland Trail Blazers. When he was just starting out, Connaughton says it […]

According to Josh Alper of ProFootballTalk.com, the Washington Redskins have added to their depth at tight end by signing Donald Parham. This is an interesting move for the Washington Redskins.

When the Washington Redskins selected quarterback Dwayne Haskins at number 15, I was already calling it the steal of the draft to that point. Then they topped themselves, getting pass rusher Montez Sweat with the 26th overall pick. Sweat was considered one of the elite talents of the draft class, but a heart condition caught […]

The Washington Redskins drafted running back Derrius Guice out of LSU in the second round (59th pick) of the 2018 NFL Draft. However, they never really got to see him play.

The Indianapolis Colts got quarterback Andrew Luck back last season. An injury had threatened to end his career, but he came back in 2018 and immediately became an MVP candidate again. Due to that, you can’t be too upset with someone if they’re a little worried about his current injury. Of course, it’s nowhere near […]

The Washington Redskins have a pretty loaded backfield. Adrian Peterson is the veteran that proved last season he could still go – rushing for over 1,000 yards. Derrius Guice is the young back that everyone’s excited about and expects massive things from. Then there’s the receiving back in Chris Thompson, who’s extremely dangerous in the […]

The Washington Redskins aren’t exactly favorites to win the NFC East. They have a lot of up-and-coming talent, but also have some holes in the secondary and at wide receiver. However according to Jordan Dajani of 247Sports.com, that’s not stopping Nate Burleson from believing in them. In Burleson’s defense, the Washington Redskins have a lot […]

Larry Fitzgerald has been one of the best wide receivers in football since he joined the NFL in 2004. Things are starting to wind down now though and the Arizona Cardinals probably won’t be counting on his services for much longer. That is, unless head coach Kliff Kingsbury has anything to say about it. According […]

Ever since his arrival in the NFL, Todd Gurley of the Los Angeles Rams has been considered one of the best running backs in football. That leaked over into the Fantasy Football realm, as he’s routinely a top-three pick. However, things are changing. Gurley’s knee is becoming a significant problem. So much so that the […]

The Seattle Seahawks drafted Rashaad Penny in the first-round (27th overall) of the 2018 NFL Draft. They did this despite many people feeling there were better options on the board. Due to that, everything about Penny is put under a microscope. For now, that’s leading to a positive reaction according to Bob Condotta on Twitter. […]

Last season James Conner became the main running back for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Of course, this was the case after the entire Le’Veon Bell debacle which is officially behind the Steelers.

Just about anything associated with the Cleveland Browns is trending up right now. It appears that not everything is perfect, though.

The Brooklyn Nets have the 17th and 27th overall picks in the first round in the upcoming NBA Draft. They also have the first pick of the second round, 31st overall.

The Washington Wizards had a disappointing season in 2018-19, going 32-50. It was their first 50-loss campaign since the 2012-13 season.

The Green Bay Packers 6-9-1 record last season was extremely disappointing and left a lot to be desired. That doesn’t mean there were some standout performers on both sides of the ball though. For Green Bay, one of their best players in 2018 was linebacker Blake Martinez. With 2018 now in the rearview mirror, it’s […]

The Minnesota Vikings made major splashes in heading into 2018 – the biggest of which being adding free agent quarterback Kirk Cousins.

The Oakland Raiders have definitely had a wild last two years. It all started when they signed head coach Jon Gruden to an eye-popping 10-year contract.

The New York Giants had two first-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. With the first (sixth overall), they took quarterback Daniel Jones out of Duke.

The Los Angeles Rams added a veteran leader and talented player in safety Eric Weddle this NFL offseason. No matter the circumstances, it would be hard to knock the addition too much – as Weddle is one of the best safeties in league history. However, head coach Sean McVay is giving another reason to think […]

The Boston Celtics had a disappointing season after entering the 2018-19 campaign with sky-high expectations.

One decent consolation prize is the Celtics have three first-round picks in the 2019 NBA […]

The Carolina Panthers finished the 2018 season with a 7-9 record. That record wasn’t good enough to make the playoffs, effectively ending their run early. However, a poor 2018 doesn’t necessarily have to foreshadow 2019. The Panthers have a lot of massive pieces in place that could help them to turn things around extremely quickly […]

The Buffalo Bills finished 2018 with a 6-10 record. Although that was a step in the wrong direction compared to a playoff appearance in 2017, there’s plenty to look forward to.
