Eagles head coach Doug Pederson is already tired of watching Nick Foles. This past winter, Nick Foles shocked the world.

Trainer Alex Guerrero wasn’t allowed to be around the team last year, but that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore.

Randy Gregory has only been back with the Dallas Cowboys for a couple of weeks, but he’s already running with the first team at defensive end. The Dallas Cowboys have a lot of talent on the defensive line, but figuring out how to fit everyone together into one effective unit is a bit of a
The Browns want to start the season with Baker Mayfield on the bench, but if Tyrod Taylor’s injury proves to be serious they’ll be forced to reconsider. The best laid plans in the NFL are often ruined due to injury. That could be the case in Cleveland. The Browns have done everything they can not
HBO’s Hard Knocks might impact your fantasy draft and entire fantasy season. It could give you an edge or end up burning you, just depending on how you understand it and apply it as you’re drafting. From the guy/girl who proposes more asinine trades than the rest of the league combined, to the person who
The Cowboys lost a lot of big name players in the offseason. Is there enough talent still on the roster to get back to the playoffs in 2018? Losing big name stars like Dez Bryant and Jason Witten will undoubtedly change the way the Cowboys play this season. It won’t change expectations in Dallas though.

Entering his 15th NFL season, and with three Super Bowl appearances (two wins) on his resume, Ben Roethlisberger should have as much freedom as any quarterback in the NFL.

The Browns want everyone to believe they’re keeping Baker Mayfield on the bench so he can learn from Tyrod Taylor, but that isn’t the whole story.

What if there was a way to change a moment in history for each of the 32 NFL teams. There isn’t, but it makes for some delicious food for thought. Prepare yourself for a lot of supposing. It’s somewhat safe to imagine that that nearly every sports fan has the played the game of “what
Every time the Panthers suffer an injury on the offensive line, Taylor Moton gets assigned to a new position. That’s not good for the second-year pro.
