Austin Ekeler has had a unique journey to the NFL. In 2017, he went un-drafted out of Western Colorado University and worked his way onto the field from the Los Angeles Chargers practice squad. However, this past season he has proved to everyone that he is one of the top running backs in the league and now has a big contract to back it up.
Get to know University of Minnesota linebacker Kamal Martin who reportedly had informal talks with the New England Patriots.
One of the weakest links in the Patriots’ offense last season was the tight end position. With his release imminent, here’s why Jimmy Graham should be on New England’s radar.
Rumors of Teddy Bridgewater to Tampa Bay have started swirling. Ken Grant examines the latest chatter regarding the Buccaneers’ quarterback search.
Needless to say, the highlight of the Cincinnati Bengals’ 2019 season was landing the top pick in the 2020 NFL draft. The team finished the season 2-14, with wins over the New York Jets and the Cleveland Browns. The Bengals didn’t win a game till week 13, which was the first week of December. Obviously, this isn’t how head coach Zac Taylor wanted his first season in Cincinnati to go but the team can now properly start to rebuild around their top overall pick.

This trade continues the trend of Jacksonville shipping off veteran players on expensive contracts. The Jaguars have now traded two starting cornerbacks this year after they shipped off Jalen Ramsey to the Rams for two first-round draft picks. This trade didn’t garner as much attention as I think it should’ve and I’ll explain why giving details of the trade, what it means for each team, how it affects each team’s strategies this offseason, and how each team’s future looks.
The Los Angeles Chargers lost eleven games in 2019, leading them to earn the sixth overall spot in the 2020 NFL Draft. Nine of those eleven games were by one score. That one score narrative (which had unfortunately plagued Philip Rivers his whole career) came to a head last year and resulted in the franchise deciding to move on and not offer him a new deal. Disgruntled back Melvin Gordon held out for the first three weeks of the season before reporting to the team. He is also headed for a new team. The Chargers’ record was a direct result of neither one of these things. The team also lost tight end, Hunter Henry, for four weeks and the offensive line was completely decimated for much of the year.

Should Tom Brady leave the Patriots, here are some potential replacements for the Hall of Famer.
Don’t expect the Vikings to be much of a player in free agency, as they are currently $700 thousand dollars over the cap, this according to Spotrac. With certain players they are going to want to re-sign and not a ton of cap space to spend, it’s going to take a lot of number crunching in order to get this all figured out.
