Baltimore Ravens fans who caught their team giving the Miami Dolphins were probably worried after starting cornerback Jimmy Smith went down with a right knee injury in the first quarter.

On Sunday, Jalen Ramsey hit Tyreek Hill out of bounds, resulting in a hurt shoulder and a trip to the hospital.

Sometimes, a team lucks out when it comes to finding the perfect rookie for their team. And if they’re extremely lucky like the Detroit Lions, that rookie, T.J. Hockenson, will manage to break some records along the way. Hockenson announced his arrival to the biggest stage by setting the record for receiving yards by a […]

Tom Brady has a new weapon. He didn’t play with him against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but soon the New England Patriots quarterback will. His name? Antonio Brown.

A lot went right for the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. In their Week 1 contest with the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Chiefs scored 40 points en route to a 40-26 victory.

The Kansas City Chiefs suffered a bit of a scare in their Week 1 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Patrick Mahomes, the reigning NFL MVP, suffered an ankle injury.

The Miami Dolphins started the season with a horrible game against the Baltimore Ravens. Given the way the game was already settled by the third quarter, some fans may have thought that this is now the time to give Josh Rosen the start.

The Minnesota Vikings were one of the biggest disappointments of the 2018 NFL season, missing the playoffs after receiving a ton of hype leading up to the year.

According to […]

It’s been a strange turn of events for Keelan Doss. However, he found himself donning the jersey of the Oakland Raiders. The very team that cut him at the end of the preseason last month and paid a good fee to win him back. After the chaotic circus act that was Antonio Brown’s stint with […]

This might be yet another memorable season for the New England Patriots, a team that entered Week 1 of the 2019 regular season as the defending Super Bowl champions.

The Seattle Seahawks notably selected former Ole Miss wide receiver D.K.

The Arizona Cardinals selected Kyler Murray with the first overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft.

The Arizona Cardinals faced off with the Detroit Lions in […]

Former NFL MVP and Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan did not get off to a hot start to the 2019-20 regular season on Sunday afternoon.

The Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Jacksonville Jaguars pretty convincingly on Sunday, by a final score of 40-26. However, not everything went perfectly for Kansas City.

The Los Angeles Chargers have been without their superstar running back Melvin Gordon since the start of camp. There’s a simple reason for that; he’s holding out looking for a contract (or a trade).
