Per the report, Shapiro hopes to bring more sports, including NASCAR, to Pennsylvania, but is “very worried about the overall budget.” Both the Eagles and Steelers could someday be impacted by Shapiro’s decision but the Eagles’ Lincoln Field lease runs through 2032. It’s unclear whether renovations, strictly speaking, would fall under Shapiro’s “new” stadium policy, but there should be ample time to resolve the issue.25 June 2025
Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Hunter’s $46.65 million contract is fully guaranteed and his "$30.57 million signing bonus is paid entirely upfront. The latter aspect makes him “the first non-quarterback not drafted first overall to receive his entire signing bonus upfront.” Securing such a deal makes sense for a player who could lead his team in overall snaps this season. Hunter, 22, has practiced primarily with the Jacksonville offense this offseason, and Jaguars general manager James Gladst ...24 June 2025
Johnson said, “I’ve been seeing Kenny going like right now with the ones...I think they are going to stick with him through the preseason.” Pickett has been taking snaps with the starters in camp and Johnson confirms this to be the case, with veteran Joe Flacco rotating in after. Pickett flamed out as a starter with the Steelers, tossing 15 touchdowns and 14 interceptions in 24 starts over two seasons. He was the Eagles’ backup for their championship run last season and now seems to be g ...24 June 2025
The Jaguars have a running back situation that could best be described as “in flux” with Travis Etienne on the final year of his rookie deal and Tank Bigsby not exactly establishing himself in the early-down role last season. Management brought on Tuten and LeQuint Allen in the draft, where Jaguars GM James Gladstone made drafting Tuten early a part of his elevator pitch to Jaguars management during his interview. Eventually we’d bet on Tuten getting a shot at a big role in this backfield. ...

Corley’s absence early in the offseason while he deals with an undisclosed injury has not helped. Jets OC Tanner Engstrand is quoted in the story as saying Corley is “going to have to find a way to catch himself up.” The previous coaching staff also reportedly wasn’t enamored with him after drafting him, noting his route running lacked precision and Cimini writing that his “maturity also came under scrutiny, with some in the organization privately questioning his approach.” Corley is ...24 June 2025
Asked about the J.K. Dobbins signing in a mailbag, Kosmider welcomed the opportunity to “dispel this narrative” and said if anything “Harvey has exceeded expectations during his early days in Denver.” While we’re sure Dobbins will get chances in the third-down role, we’re more aligned with Kosmider’s vision of how this plays out — if the Broncos wanted Dobbins to get more work than Harvey, they simply would have signed Dobbins before the draft. Training camp will probably be the ...24 June 2025
Gutekunst told Cheeshead TV that the Packers have had “really healthy conversations” with Tom “about locking him up and certainly that’s something we’d like to do.” Tom had an 87.8 PFF run block grade last year and has developed into an excellent right tackle, though he did notably struggle against the Eagles in the Wild Card round. Gutekunst also noted that they declined Walker’s fifth-year option only because outside linebackers are factored into the dollar amount.24 June 2025
Ruggs is eligible for parole in August 2026 after being sentenced to three years in prison for felony DUI causing death and misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter. There’s a chance the NFL commissioner’s office may suspend him again — that’s unclear and the league office said they’d “review” the matter — but Ruggs would only be 27 at that point and could receive a second chance. It would almost undoubtedly be a situation where Ruggs was fighting for a roster spot, but assuming he ear ...24 June 2025
Despite the fact that we’re now 23 days past the post-June 1 cap hit coming into play, Ramsey has been caught in a value calculus. Teams are wary of overpaying for him in light of absorbing the remainder of his contract. Breer believes a trade will happen “on the doorstep of camp.” The Rams and Chargers were leaked to Adam Schefter as Ramsey’s preferred landing spots.24 June 2025
“Any doubts about him having a notable role were erased in the first week of OTAs, when he could be seen running drag routes or matching up with linebackers in the middle of the field,” Holder continued. Warren hasn’t really gotten much attention in early best ball leagues, usually winding up as a late dart throw outside of the top-10 tight ends. It’s certainly possible that he makes that look silly despite the lack of early success by rookie tight ends historically.24 June 2025
Notably, Laine adds that she expects the role to be big even after Chris Godwin returns from ankle surgery. Egbuka has been fed in the short passing game and at times has looked “like a running back once the ball is in his hands.” It’s possible that Egbuka eats heavily into Jalen McMillan’s target share in 2025. Egbuka seems like a pretty interesting pick in best ball at this point, often going outside of the top-40 receivers.24 June 2025
Mitchell returned from a devastating knee injury late last season but clearly wasn’t trusting his knee completely at that point. Zrebiec also adds that Mitchell is “far too explosive not to get utilized.” That doesn’t necessarily mean Derrick Henry’s workload is getting scaled back a bit, but a healthy Mitchell certainly puts that into the range of outcomes if he performs well.24 June 2025
“What better place to finish than one of the cornerstone franchises of the NFL?” he said. Rodgers, 41, says his 21st NFL season will be his last. After testing the waters with the Vikings and Rams, Rodgers landed in Pittsburgh on a one-year deal and has reportedly looked good in offseason practices. Rodgers is coming off perhaps his worst season as a pro with a dysfunctional Jets team and will helm a run-first Arthur Smith offense in Pittsburgh. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported last week that ...24 June 2025
“Strange had a strong offseason and will do multiple things in Coen’s system,” Jacksonville.com’s Juston Lewis said of Strange, who last season caught 40 passes for 411 yards and two touchdowns, logging ten starts. “He’s been toted for his blocking ability, something Coen will lean heavily on in the rushing game.” It’s a good sign that Strange, entering training camp atop the Jaguars’ tight end depth chart, will see consistent playing time in 2025. Lewis said Strange will “li ...24 June 2025
The veteran long snapper most recently played for the Texans but has also seen stints with the Patriots, Dolphins, Cowboys, Jaguars, and Commanders during his three-year NFL career. He’ll try to wrest a job from Christian Kuntz in training camp.24 June 2025
DiCecco said several Eagles players this spring have suggested that the team’s offense under Patullo could be more balanced after being among the NFL’s run-heaviest units in 2024. The Philly offense would still revolve around Saquon Barkley following his 2,005 rushing yards in 2024, though the team could try to “preserve” the centerpiece of their offense with a slightly lighter workload in 2025. Barkley, 28, last season recorded 378 touches, the most of his NFL career. More passing for t ...23 June 2025
The veteran long snapper most recently played for the Texans but has also seen stints with the Patriots, Dolphins, Cowboys, Jaguars, and Commanders during his three-year NFL career. He slides in behind Christian Kuntz on the team’s depth chart and should provide valuable experience at one of the game’s most underrated positions.23 June 2025
“I came here because of him,” said Wilson about Nabers during a panel at Fanatics Fest over the weekend. “I really wanted to play with someone who is special like him.” As a rookie in 2024, Nabers was targeted 170 times, which was second-most among NFL wide receievers. He also led the Giants with 109 receptions for 1,204 yards and seven touchdowns. Wilson, who will turn 37 years old during the 2025 season, had only one player with 100/1000/7 in a single season (Tyler Lockett in 2020). Wi ...23 June 2025
As Keefer notes in the article, Andy Reid “made a point of it all spring” for the Chiefs to “get back to pushing the ball deep down the field.” Per PFF, since 2021, Patrick Mahomes has ranked 21st or lower in ADOT (min. 300 dropbacks), but finished sixth in ADOT in 2018 when he broke out for 5,097-50-12 on his way to winning his first MVP. A lot has changed since Mahomes last aired it out at a high rate. Most notably is the departure of Tyreek Hill in 2022 and Travis Kelce no longer bein ...23 June 2025
Jones and Anthony Richardson are supposed to compete for the QB1 job in camp. While Richardson recently said he expects to be ready to go by camp, an offseason shoulder surgery has slowed his progress for the upcoming season, and opened the door for Jones to work almost exclusively with the first team offense. Whether or not Richardson can participate in camp will obviously weigh heavily in how this competition unfolds, but if he can outperform Jones is another question entirely. Jones has strug ...
