2 days agoSeveral sources told FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz that Ole Miss quarterback
Jaxson Dart won't fall out of the first round, so if the New York Giants elect to take either Penn State edge rusher Abdul Carter or Colorado wide receiver/defensive back Travis Hunter at No. 3 overall next Thursday night in the NFL draft, they might be inclined to move up from No. 34 overall in the second round to take Dart. Schultz writes that Dart's swashbuckling style and flair for the dramatic seem tailor-made for New York, and sources indicate that Giants head coach Brian Daboll likes him. Although the G-Men have done their homework on Dart, Colorado's
Shedeur Sanders, Alabama's
Jalen Milroe and Louisville's
Tyler Shough, they aren't completely desperate at the position after adding both
Russell Wilson and
Jameis Winston in free agency.

2 days agoLas Vegas Raiders left tackle Kolton Miller is not participating in the team's voluntary offseason program as he angles for a contract extension, sources told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. The 29-year-old is a seven-year starter for the organization and is set to be a free agent in 2026 as he heads into the final year of a three-year, $54.015 million deal that he signed before the 2021 season. The Raiders have yet to engage in contract-extension talks with the former first-round pick (15th overall in 2018 out of UCLA. Miller started all 17 games in 2024 for the first time in his career but currently isn't being paid as one of the top 10 left tackles in terms of average annual salary. There's still plenty of time for the Raiders and Miller to work something out ahead of the start of the 2025 season, but it's unclear if Miller is prepared to hold out into training camp this summer if nothing is done by then.

2 days agoThe Chicago Bears locked up a key piece of their defense on Wednesday by agreeing to a two-year, $20 million contract extension with linebacker T.J. Edwards that includes $16.6 million fully guaranteed, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Edwards was heading into the final season of a three-year, $19.5 million deal but will now stick around in the Windy City through 2027. The 28-year-old tackling machine finished as the No. 11 linebacker in IDP fantasy leagues in 2024 while recording 129 tackles (79 solo), a career-high four sacks, 12 tackles for loss, six QB hits, an interception, a forced fumble and two fumble recoveries in 17 starts. He has now started 17 regular-season games in three straight years and has 100-plus total tackles in four straight seasons. Edwards should once again be an every-week starting IDP linebacker in 2025 as long as he stays healthy.

2 days agoFormer Florida and Georgia running back
Trevor Etienne is visiting with the New England Patriots on Wednesday, according to NFL insider Ian Rapoport. The 20-year-old rushed for a career-low 609 yards and averaged 5.0 yards per carry in his lone season with the Bulldogs, but dealt with injuries for most of the 2024 season. However, his overall productive profile is impressive, with 371 carries for 2,081 yards and 23 rushing touchdowns in 34 career games. He added 62 receptions for 432 yards and one score through the air. The brother of
Travis Etienne is expected to be a Day 3 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, and the Patriots could be interested in adding a rookie to their running back room to compete with
Antonio Gibson and
Rhamondre Stevenson.

2 days agoFormer University of Michigan tight end
Colston Loveland has taken a backseat to former Penn State tight end prospect
Tyler Warren during offseason NFL Draft buzz, but the former College Football Playoff National Champion is expected to be a first-round pick, and NFL insider Jordan Schultz reports he could go in the 10-22 overall range. "A f---ing awesome football player man," an NFL college scouting director told Schultz. "Does it all. Day 1 mismatch, Day 1 star." Over his final two collegiate seasons, Loveland caught 101 passes for 1,231 yards and nine touchdowns despite playing in a run-heavy offense. While most tight ends take time to develop in the NFL, we've seen
Sam LaPorta and
Brock Bowers deliver TE1 campaigns as rookies. If Loveland lands in the right offense, he could have immediate fantasy football upside.

2 days agoFormer Texas wide receiver and 2025 NFL Draft prospect
Isaiah Bond, who surrendered on a sexual assault warrant last week before posting bond and being released, is filing a complaint against his accuser. The 21-year-old's agent, Damien Butler, released a statement on Wednesday calling the allegations false. "Earlier this evening, Isaiah's attorneys at Nesenhoff & Miltenberg, LLP filed the attached complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas in response to the false allegation of sexual assault and defamatory statements made against him. Unlike the false narrative that has been amplified, the truth, once revealed in its entirety, will show that he was targeted by a woman eight years his senior, relentlessly pursued, enticed by explicit photos & videos and ultimately setup for financial gain." Needless to say, this is a situation worth monitoring with just eight days to go before the 2025 NFL Draft kicks off. Bond caught 54 passes for 540 yards and three touchdowns in his lone season at Texas after transferring from Alabama.

2 days agoThe Cincinnati Bengals have signed veteran backup quarterback
Logan Woodside to a one-year deal, according to NFL.com. The 30-year-old was signed by the Bengals last offseason and spent most of the 2024 campaign on the practice squad. Woodside, a former seventh-round pick by the Bengals out of Toledo, has completed four of his seven career passing attempts for 34 yards and one interception in 12 games with the Tennessee Titans and Atlanta Falcons. At best, he'll likely stick around on the practice squad once again in 2025, but he could face an uphill battle to make the roster in any form.

2 days agoThe New York Giants are holding private workouts for top quarterback prospects
Shedeur Sanders,
Jalen Milroe, and
Tyler Shough, which suggests the team is interested in adding a late-Round 1 or early-Round 2 rookie signal-caller in the 2025 NFL Draft. However, general manager Joe Schoen says the Giants "don't think it's mandatory" to take a quarterback after the additions of veterans
Russell Wilson and
Jameis Winston. The organization is clearly doing late-process homework on the QBs who could slip into the back half of Round 1 or later, so their plans after the No. 3 overall pick remain a mystery. Wilson and Winston could provide better quarterback play than New York has seen since Eli Manning, but neither is a long-term solution for a head coach and general manager running out of time to rack up wins.

2 days agoTexas A&M defensive tackle Shemar Stewart visited with the Chicago Bears on Monday, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. The Bears definitely need help with their pass rush despite adding Dayo Odeyingbo in free agency to pair with Montez Sweat. The Bears hold the 10th overall pick in the first round of next week's NFL draft, but Stewart could be in play later in the round if they trade back. The 21-year-old's physical attributes jump off the page, but his production with the Aggies didn't exactly match up, as Stewart had only 31 tackles (six for loss), 1.5 sacks, a forced fumble and two pass breakups in 12 games last year at Texas A&M. He wasn't a full-time starter until last year, but he has been rising up draft boards since a dominating performance at the Senior Bowl. Among others, he's also visited with the Pittsburgh Steelers and New England Patriots.

2 days agoSeveral NFL teams told FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz that Syracuse quarterback
Kyle McCord is one of the more undervalued players in the entire 2025 NFL draft. McCord visited with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday and with the New York Giants on Tuesday, according to sources. The 22-year-old led the nation in passing in 2024 and has acquitted himself well throughout the draft process with good interviews and impressive on-the-board work. McCord has prototypical NFL size, a winning pedigree and capacity to read coverage. He's currently being considered a sleeper in what is a weak draft class at the quarterback position in 2025. Both the Steelers and Giants are two of the most QB-needy teams in terms of long-term investments, so it wouldn't be a surprise to see either of them go after McCord on Day 2 or 3 of this year's draft.

2 days agoThe Athletic's Dianna Russini says that the quarterback she's heard being discussed in NFL circles more than anyone else lately is University of Louisville QB
Tyler Shough. Because of his rising draft stock and the fact that there are plenty of teams desperate for a franchise signal-caller, there is a chance that the 25-year-old QB is taken in the first round next Thursday night. Russini said an NFL head coach told her that he believes Shough is the best quarterback prospect in this year's draft class, including Miami's Cam Ward. Shough is old for a rookie QB, but his experience (seven years in college) certainly could give him the leg up in terms of being pro-ready the fastest in a QB draft class that is considered pretty weak. In his final season at Louisville, Shough threw for 3,200 yards, 23 touchdowns and six interceptions. Don't be surprised if a team trades back into the back half of the first round to select him next week.

2 days agoThe Denver Broncos are visiting with Ohio State running back
TreVeyon Henderson on Wednesday, according to 9 News' Mike Klis. Many mock drafters think that Henderson would be an ideal fit for head coach Sean Payton's offensive system as both a rushing and receiving threat out of the backfield. Henderson had two 1,000-plus rushing yard and 27-catch seasons with the Buckeyes, and the Broncos are certainly looking to bolster what was a below-average rushing attack last year, especially after
Javonte Williams departed in free agency. On Tuesday, Henderson visited with the Pittsburgh Steelers, who pick one slot after the Broncos in next week's NFL draft at No. 21. Henderson excels in pass protection as well, which is something most NFL teams put a ton of value in, especially for young backs. If Denver takes the 22-year-old in the first round, he'd likely lead the backfield in touches in 2025.
