The New England Patriots entered the 2023 offseason knowing that they needed some help at wide receiver, and they ended up making their first big splash in free agency by going out and signing JuJu Smith-Schuster to come in and help at this position of need. Smith-Schuster signed a three-year, $33 million deal with the […]

The New England Patriots have had a fairly confusing start to free agency. Despite being armed with ample cap space, they haven’t made many big moves in free agency, with most of their work involving retaining their own players and signing lower-level free agents. The biggest move they have made so far came on Wednesday […]

Aaron Rodgers has declared his intention to play for the New York Jets in 2023, and while he confirmed that the long-suspected rumor was indeed true, he also shot down another rumor suggesting that he had a wishlist for the Jets in free agency that they would have to fulfill if they were to trade […]

The New York Yankees figure to have one of the more dominant teams in MLB once again in 2023, with Aaron Judge leading the way in their lineup.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have been fighting to assert themselves in the Western Conference all season long, hovering around the .500 mark for much of the campaign.

Team USA has quite a few stars on their roster at the World Baseball Classic, but arguably the biggest name of the bunch is Los Angeles Angels star outfielder Mike Trout. Trout’s impact on the game of baseball has been monumental, and not many players can say they have ever been as good as he […]

The Boston Celtics emerged from the All-Star break as the top team in the NBA, and a solid run out of the gate could have cemented their billing as the favorite to win a title this season. Instead, they are in the middle of their worst stretch of basketball of the season, as they have […]

The Kansas City Chiefs have already seen quite a bit of turnover at their tackle spots on the offensive line this offseason, and NFL Free Agency has only been open for a few hours. Andrew Wylie has signed with the Washington Commanders, and after KC signed Jawaan Taylor, they will not be re-signing Orlando Brown […]

The San Francisco 49ers had one of the best defenses in the entire NFL in 2022, and just a few hours into free agency, they have managed to make themselves even better. That’s because they managed to land former Philadelphia Eagles star defensive tackle Javon Hargrave on a four-year, $84 million contract. Hargrave will join […]

NFL Free Agency is off and running, and it looks like the Los Angeles Chargers could be trying to make some additions to their secondary in the early going. That has led them to target veteran safety John Johnson, who would be set to reunite with head coach Brandon Staley if he found his way […]

The Boston Bruins have been on an absolute tear all season long, but they have hit a bit of a roadblock of sorts as of late, losing two of their last three games to snap what had been a ten-game win streak. The common denominator in those two losses was that Jeremy Swayman was in […]

March Madness is right around the corner, but one team that won’t be partaking in the festivities is Ole Miss. The Rebels finished with just a 12-21 record, and fired their head coach Kermit Davis midway through the season as a result of their struggles. With the season over, Ole Miss needs a new head […]

NFL Free Agency is set to kick off on Monday afternoon, but that hasn’t stopped teams from across the league making some huge moves already.

The Chicago Bears and Carolina Panthers pulled off a stunning trade involving the first overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, but one of the more overlooked parts of the deal was that DJ Moore was sent to the Bears from the Panthers as part of this deal. Moore is one of the most consistent […]

Russell Wilson is going to be spending much of the 2023 offseason trying to figure out what went wrong for him in 2022 with the Denver Broncos. New head coach Sean Payton will hopefully help get the process started, but Wilson is going to have to do a lot of the heavy-lifting himself after a […]

The Milwaukee Bucks have kept on winning, even without star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo, who has missed their past three games. The Bucks have posted a 21-3 record since January 16th, but one of those losses came on Saturday night against the Golden State Warriors. And after missing that game, it sounds like Antetokounmpo is closing […]

Kyle Lowry finally made his return from a 15-game absence for the Miami Heat on Saturday night, but he found himself being utilized in a different role than he was typically accustomed to. Lowry ended up coming off the bench for the Heat, with Erik Spoelstra not wanting to disrupt his current starting lineup, and […]

The Milwaukee Bucks have been pretty much unstoppable since midway through January, going on an insane 21-2 run starting on the 16th of that month. It seemed like they were going to make that 22-2 against the Golden State Warriors on Saturday night, but Stephen Curry ensured that wouldn’t be the case, and after the […]

The 2023 NFL offseason is shaping up to be a hectic one. With tons of quarterback drama already being dealt with, and a lot more still to be resolved, it’s clear that many teams are looking to find a way to take the next step forward this offseason. Others will be looking to sell off […]

Derek Carr and Michael Thomas haven’t exactly had much smooth sailing over the past few seasons. But now the two have linked up with the New Orleans Saints, they could be set to help each other turn things around. And it seems like Carr and Thomas are already on the same page with Carr officially […]

The New England Patriots have a very important offseason in store for them. After a wildly disappointing 2022 season, which saw them take a step back from their encouraging campaign in 2021 rather than a step forward, it’s clear some big changes need to be made. Bill Belichick and company have already revamped the coaching […]

The Chicago Bears had made it clear for quite some time that they were leaning towards trading out of the top overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, and they actually put their money where their mouth was when they traded the pick to the Carolina Panthers on Friday afternoon.

As a result, […]

The Indianapolis Colts certainly did not have the 2022 campaign they were expected to, and that has set the stage for a rather interesting offseason for them. After completely falling apart, the Colts are clearly rebuilding, and it will be interesting to see what steps they take to rebuild their roster after their moribound 2022 […]

Lonzo Ball and the Chicago Bulls appear to be stuck at a crossroads. Ball hasn’t played since January of last year as he continues to deal with a mysterious left knee injury, and no matter what he has done, his knee just will not get any better. Ball is now set to undergo a third […]

The Toronto Raptors suffered a tough loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday night, and after the game, Fred VanVleet shocked the NBA world when he absolutely blasted referee Ben Taylor for his poor officiating.

The Boston Red Sox are entering the 2023 season in a transitional period.

They have some talented players on their roster, but it […]

After months of negotiations, the New York Giants finally managed to lock up their star quarterback in Daniel Jones to a long-term extension.

The Boston Celtics are currently in the midst of their worst stretch of basketball this season. Making matters even worse, they might be as beat up as they have been all season long.
