Some friction between Marcus Peters and Sean Payton might add a little drama to what would already be a tremendous NFC title game between the Rams and the Saints. Week 9 of the 2018 NFL season probably wasn’t the best week of the year for Marcus Peters, the cornerback for the Los Angeles Rams. His
The NFL is littered with quarterbacks who can barely complete half their passes, and yet Colin Kaepernick isn’t wanted by most fans in a small survey.

Sam Darnold will sit out when the Jets play the Bills on Sunday thanks to a foot injury, and some time on the bench might be exactly what the kid needs right now. It’s been a tough rookie season for Sam Darnold, to say the least. His New York Jets are a disappointing 3-6 after
After spending time as an NFL quarterback and behind bars, Ryan Leaf is trying to change his narrative.
