Pressure Is On Jake Browning

Jaylen Waddle Unstoppable At Practice

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle continues to make noise at practice. In a joint practice with the Atlanta Falcons, Waddle "made tough catches look easy."

Michael F. Florio's 2021 Fantasy Football Rankings

Rankings are probably the most overrated aspect in fantasy sports. And most, if not all players fall victim to them at some point in their fantasy playing career.

Lions Sign Jordan Ta'amu

The Detroit Lions have signed quarterback Jordan Ta'amu, who spent the 2020 season on the Chiefs practice squad.

Ta'amu actually spent brief time on the Lions practice squad in December […]

49ers Waive Josh Rosen

The San Francisco 49ers have waived quarterback Josh Rosen. A first-round pick in 2018, Rosen's NFL career has been a complete dud.

Davis Mills Could Get Shot At Some Point

Ben Roethlisberger Will Play On Saturday

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger will play during the exhibition matchup against the Lions.
