Josh Allen Won't Play In Preseason Opener

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that quarterback Josh Allen won't play in the team's preseason opener against the Indianapolis Colts on Saturday.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said that quarterback Tom Brady won't be back with the team until after the preseason game against the Tennessee Titans, which is on Aug. 20.

Matt Pryor, Bernhard Raimann Battling For Left Tackle Job

Indianapolis Colts offensive tackles Matt Pryor and Bernhard Raimann are battling for the starting left tackle job this summer after the team moved on from veteran Eric Fisher.

Mac Jones, Patriots Offense Struggling In Camp

New England Patriots second-year quarterback Mac Jones and the offense continue to struggle in training camp this summer. The defense has far outplayed the offense so far in camp, and The Athletic's Chad Graff thinks it's fair to be worried about the offense heading into the 2022 season. ESPN Boston's Mike Reiss thinks it wouldn't […]

Deshaun Watson To Start Preseason Opener

Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson is scheduled to start the team's preseason opener on Friday night against the Jacksonville Jaguars, along with most of the rest of the starters, as long as he isn't suspended indefinitely by then.

Robert Hainsey Just Dealing With Cramps

Tampa Bay Buccaneers center Robert Hainsey was injured in training camp practice on Wednesday and was carted off the field, but he was just dealing with cramps in his lower leg.

Zach Wilson To Play A Few Series In Preseason Opener

New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson will play one to two series in the preseason opener against the Philadelphia Eagles this week.

Kellen Mond Has Struggled At Camp

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kellen Mond has struggled at training camp and has thrown interceptions consistently. He's also operating with poor timing and checks down far too often, even in two-minute drills. When he's been forced off platform, his accuracy plummets and he often underthrows wide-open receivers. Mond has yet to win a situational drill in […]

Mitch Trubisky Has Inside Track On Starting Job

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mitch Trubisky is believed to have the inside track to win the starting job in training camp over Mason Rudolph and rookie first-rounder Kenny Pickett. This was the expectation going into training camp, and it's still the case despite the fact that Trubisky hasn't exactly looked great in practices so far. It's […]

Jalen Hurts To Receive First Preseason Action

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts led his team to the playoffs last year and is expected to take a big leap in 2022. Hurts possesses exceptional athleticism, which makes him dangerous as a dual-threat quarterback, but he has received a lot of criticism regarding his skill set as a passer. Hurts received an exciting new […]

Geno Smith To Start First Preseason Game

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith will make the start under center for the first preseason game, according to head coach Pete Carroll. The former second round pick looks to have the edge over Drew Lock. Although, Lock has looked better over the last week, but it sounds like this is Smith's job to lose. Smith […]

NFL Pushing For One-Year Suspension For Deshaun Watson

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said on Tuesday that the league is seeking a tougher penalty for Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson because his actions were "egregious" and "predatory behavior."

Is Deshaun Watson Worth Drafting in 2022? Fantasy Football Draft Outlook

One of the most difficult things to do as a fantasy analyst is to make projections about a player for the upcoming season based off of incomplete information.

Mekhi Becton Likely Out For The Year

New York Jets former first-round offensive tackle Mekhi Becton (knee) suffered an avulsion fracture of his right kneecap in training camp practice on Monday.

Drew Lock Outperforms Geno Smith Over The Weekend

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith took all of the first-team repetitions during Sunday's walk-through practice, while Drew Lock worked exclusively with the No. 2 offense as the QB competition appeared to remain status quo.
