The Philadelphia Eagles are looking to recover from a tough Week 2 loss to the Atlanta Falcons when they take on the Detroit Lions at home on Sunday afternoon. But they might have to do it without their two two receivers. DeSean Jackson has already been ruled out with an abdominal strain, and Alshon Jeffery […]

The Green Bay Packers have gotten off to a 2-0 start on the season, but it has actually felt somewhat hollow. Of course, winning games is always a good thing, and while the Packers have beaten a pair of NFC North division rivals to start the year, there are actually some concerns for Green Bay […]

For the first two weeks of the season, the Todd Gurley show has been more of a Todd Gurley preview. The Los Angeles Rams back, who led the NFL in touchdowns in 2018, has a score and 160 rushing yards to his name in 2019. Not awful numbers, but certainly not Offensive Player of the […]

The Washington Redskins had a bit of a quarterback controversy this offseason, with Case Keenum, Colt McCoy and rookie Dwayne Haskins all battling for the starting role, but Keenum has silenced any doubt that he deserved to be the starter over the first two weeks. Thus far, Keenum has thrown for 601 yards, five touchdowns […]

There is no downplaying how poorly Mitchell Trubisky and the Chicago Bears offense has been at the beginning of this season. However, there is reason for optimism for Matt Nagy’s group in Week 3 against the Washington Redskins. The Bears were able to squeak by with a victory over the Denver Broncos in Week 2 […]

The 0-2 Pittsburgh Steelers will face the 2-0 San Francisco 49ers in San Francisco on Sunday. After losing Ben Roethlisberger for the season, the Steelers aren’t expected to win the Week 3 game. However, with a talented roster and an always competitive head coach, winning isn’t out of the realm of possibility — it’s football […]

The Baltimore Ravens and Kansas City Chiefs will square off in the most anticipated matchup in Week 3. Both teams are off to 2-0 starts this season but only one can come out of this undefeated (unless there’s a tie). The Ravens, more so Lamar Jackson, have turned some heads this season with the play […]

The New Orlean Saints didn’t think they would have to battle the Seattle Seahawks at CenturyLink Field without Drew Brees, but, that is the position in which they find themselves heading into Week 3. Brees will be on the shelf for around six weeks, and the Saints will have to find ways to win without […]

The Baltimore Ravens will face their first real test of the season when they head on the road to take on the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, and all eyes are on the matchup between Lamar Jackson and Patrick Mahomes. We know what Mahomes can do. The man is coming off of an MVP season […]

Veteran defensive end Robert Quinn is primed to make his Dallas Cowboys debut on Sunday. Coming off of a two-game suspension (PEDs) and hand surgery, it’s unknown how much he’ll play against his former team, the Miami Dolphins. More likely than not, the Cowboys will limit Quinn’s snaps against a weaker opponent. However, if the […]

The Dallas Cowboys released defensive end Taco Charlton after two unsuccessful years as a 2017 first-round pick. The Miami Dolphins scooped him off of waivers. With Dallas hosting Miami on Sunday, is there a possibility of a (fish) Taco revenge game? “There’s a possibility,” as Dolphins coach Brian Flores said on Friday, via The Athletic’s […]

On Wednesday, the Arizona Cardinals restructured outside linebacker Chandler Jones’ contract to where the team has an extra $4 million in cap space (to add to their roughly $7 million, per Over The Cap). If you expect that to correspond with another, potentially bigger, move, don’t hold your breath. Cardinals general manager Steve Keim insists […]

0Cleveland Browns defensive lineman Myles Garrett is one of the best pass rushers in the NFL, but a couple of roughing the passer penalties sullied what was otherwise a dominant performance against the New York Jets last Monday. Now, Garrett says he has to play smarter in order to avoid being flagged: “It is hurting […]

Swapping defensive coordinator Vic Fangio (now-Denver Broncos head coach) for Chuck Pagano caused concern of a possible regression for the Chicago Bears defense. Through two weeks of play, that’s a fallacy; they’ve allowed a total of 24 points in two games, including just two touchdowns. However, if there is an area where the Bears lack, […]

The New York Giants have decided to make a change at quarterback, going from Eli Manning to rookie Daniel Jones ahead of the team’s Week 3 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Manning has taken his benching in stride, and while he said he is “disappointed” by losing his job, he says he will mentor […]

On Friday, Baltimore Ravens players expressed their joy on social media, prompting questions that the team may be trading for Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey.

The Baltimore Ravens are getting set to take on the Kansas City Chiefs in a clash of two 2-0 teams this Sunday, marking their second regular-season meeting in two years.

The quarterback’s most important weapon is his hand. However, that’s exactly what Jacksonville Jaguars rookie QB Gardner Minshew tried breaking during his collegiate career. The eccentric quarterback, whose personality is quickly endearing himself to his team’s fans with his charm, was not shy at all about sharing the incident to the public. During his rookie […]

The New Orleans Saints will be taking a road trip in Week 3 to take on the Seattle Seahawks in their first game without Drew Brees this season.

The war of words between the Detroit Lions and Calvin Johnson isn’t going to stop anytime soon.

Detroit released its latest statement on the situation in an attempt to bury the issue in the past […]

Philadelphia Eagles defensive lineman Fletcher Cox is used to getting to the quarterback, but so far this season, that has been a challenge for the veteran.

One of their potential signings will be free agent wide receiver Jordan Matthews. Field Yates reported that Matthews’ workout with the Vikings […]

Cordarrelle Patterson is a wide receiver by position, but he can be used in a variety of ways, which is why the Chicago Bears picked him up this offseason. The Bears tried using him in a key third-and-1 against the Green Bay Packers in Week 1, but that play failed, and head coach Matt Nagy […]

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles contemplated retirement this offseason, but he decided to give it at least one more season, returning to the Eagles on a one-year contract. At 36 years old, Sproles is long past the typical lifespan for an NFL running back, even if he doesn’t get much playing time in the […]

Seattle Seahawks defensive lineman Ezekiel Ansah has been cleared to make his debut in his team’s Week 3 matchup against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, according to Brady Henderson of ESPN.com.

With Antonio Brown long gone and their passing game in need of a jolt, the Oakland Raiders might bring back one of their own. According to Jane Slater of NFL Network, free-agent receiver Brice Butler, a seventh-round pick of the Raiders in 2013, worked out for Oakland on Friday. “WR Brice Butler tells me he […]

Antonio Brown currently finds himself without a job. If just one team chooses to ignore the myriad controversies surrounding the six-time Pro Bowler to offer him a contract, though, the NFL will allow Brown to take the field – for now, at least. In a statement following his release by the New England Patriots on […]

The Seattle Seahawks will be welcoming the Drew Brees-less New Orleans Saints to town in Week 3. After having two straight productive weeks, D.K.
