Saints TE Gives Honest Take on Where Tyler Shough Stands in New Orleans’ ‘Full Blown’ QB1 Competition.
The New Orleans Saints face a big question at quarterback as they prepare for the 2025 NFL season. With Derek Carr no longer on the roster, the team’s QB competition is wide open. Well-known prospects like Spencer Rattler and Jake Haener are in the mix, but rookie Tyler Shough is quietly making a name for […]

Deebo Samuel (WR - SF)
7/2/25 4:57 PM -
49ers free agent idea lands $100 million WR. This offseason, the San Francisco 49ers made a major trade, sending away their veteran receiver, Deebo Samuel, to the Washington Commanders. With Samuel now out the door in San Francisco, the team could still look to upgrade the receiving position before the start of the new season. There aren't many big-time free-agent receivers available, but former Buffalo Bills receiver Amari Cooper is still on the open market, and Cody Benjamin from CBS Sports thinks the 49ers should try to sign him.

2009 Saints Ranked Among Top 5 Super Bowl Champions Of 21st Century. The NFL offseason is a perfect time to debate greatness, and the New Orleans Saints have one glorious moment of greatness in their dreary history. In 2009, the Saints could do no wrong. Quarterback Drew Brees led them to a 13-3 regular season record and home-field advantage in the NFC playoffs. From there, they beat Kurt Warner's Arizona Cardinals, Brett Favre's Minnesota Vikings, and Peyton Manning's Indianapolis Colts en route to the franchise's only Super Bowl win.

NFL insider: DK Metcalf was exceptional for under-pressure Seahawks QB in 2024. In this era of huge passing numbers in the National Football League, getting after opposing quarterbacks is a big-time priority for enemy defenses. Likewise, protecting the man behind center is very important to the head coach and his offensive coordinators. Lauren Gray of Pro Football Focus put together some very interesting analysis when it came to NFL wide receivers and who are the Top 10 in the league when comes to being the highest target rates when the quarterback is under pressure.

Seahawks rookie Jalen Milroe hilariously struggles with reaction drill. The Seattle Seahawks offense will look wildly different in 2025 with Sam Darnold taking over for Geno Smith at quarterback. Darnold had plenty of success in 2024 with the Minnesota Vikings, but there are still concerns. One of the more intriguing prospects in the class, Milroe has the tools to be a dangerous runner right away.

Eli Manning (QB - NYG)
7/2/25 12:00 PM -
This Position Group Named Giants' Biggest Question Mark Ahead of Training Camp. When an NFL franchise's quarterback situation has been in such dire straits for as long as the New York Giants' room has, it's understandable for those on the outside to doubt that anything will be different with the position as the 2025 season is right around the corner. For the first time in a long while, the Giants arsenal of gunslingers appears to be in the best shape it's been since the team saw their two-time Super Bowl MVP and legendary arm Eli Manning hang up the cleats for retirement at the end of the 2019 campaign. Through six mostly grueling seasons, the Giants tried to make it work with Daniel Jones as the heir apparent to the helm, but nagging injuries and a habit of poor decision-making in the pocket would mar his tenure in the Big Apple. The franchise would need to take a drastic turn to get back on the right track, which led to several significant moves at the quarterback position.

Bears QB Caleb Williams bothers former NFL star for multiple reasons. Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is probably one of the more polarizing players in the NFL, which does not come as much of a surprise given that he was also a somewhat controversial figure at USC. Heading into the professional level, many questioned whether or not Williams had the mental fortitude to handle the rigors of 17 games against the top athletes in the world, and some even questioned if he was really all that elite under center to begin with. Former NFL quarterback Matt Hasselbeck expressed his concerns about Williams during a recent appearance on The Herd, specifically naming a few things about the second-year signal-caller that perturbed him, first zeroing in on Williams taking 68 sacks during his rookie campaign.

Will WR Darius Slayton Be Called Upon More This Season?. The New York Giants haven't had a lot to celebrate over the last several seasons, but one player they could give themselves a pat on the back for finding and supporting their offense in that span is wide receiver Darius Slayton. While Slayton, the Giants' 2019 fifth-round pick out of Auburn, wasn't a selection made by the Joe Schoen-Brian Daboll regime, the current leadership has seen firsthand the immense value that the veteran wide receiver brings to the team and knew they couldn't let that slip away in free agency this past spring. Before his teammate, Malik Nabers, stepped onto the scene in 2024, Slayton held the distinction of being the Giants' trusty pass catcher.

No reason potential Panthers game-changer should sit in free agency any longer. The woes of the Carolina Panthers' 2024 defensive unit have been well documented.

How Will the Raiders' RBs Perform in 2025?. The Las Vegas Raiders made a clear emphasis in the offseason that they wanted to include the run game as part of their new identity moving forward. Keeping things simple is effective in a league where everyone's trying to find the next big thing, as well as a resurgence in the importance of the running back position. The San Francisco 49ers traded for Christian McCaffrey, and it led them to a Super Bowl, even if they didn't win. The Philadelphia Eagles stepped up and did what they couldn't and defeated the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl, and Saquon Barkley was an undeniable part of that.

As July begins, Chism is reciprocating Bumpus' compliments by providing a ringing endorsement for the training program which may help him prove his case beyond a reasonable doubt. Bumpus, the CEO of Monroe, Washington's Elite Training Academy, coached Chism to a successful career at Monroe High School in which he amassed 166 catches for 2,581 yards with 39 total touchdowns.

DJ Moore maintains All-NFC North status even after an off year. With the possible exception of Caleb Williams, no one on the Bears offense welcomes the arrival of Chicago Bears coach Ben Johnson more than DJ Moore. In fact, Johnson probably appreciates it more than Williams because the second-year quarterback doesn't know what he doesn't know, as they say. Moore has seen what he can be as a receiver with proper targeting and play design, and now can realize this role again in 2025 after averaging a career-low 9.9 yards per reception in a struggling offense. Moore made it onto the On SI All-NFC North team as third receiver by a vote of writers covering the division's teams.

Las Vegas had the 32nd-ranked rushing attack in the NFL last season, as the unit mustered only 79.8 yards per game. Sincere McCormick was a glimmer of hope for the Silver and Black, but he got hurt toward the end of the season and is far from a proven commodity.

In their Week 16 dismantling of the Chicago Bears last season, the Detroit Lions felt it necessary to kick the Bears while they were down by running an incredible trick play late in the game. Jared Goff pretended to stumble after taking a snap, prompting Chicago's defenders to lose focus for just a moment as they anticipated a sack or a fumble opportunity. Instead, Goff steadied his feet and threw a dart to a wide open Sam LaPorta to seal the win.

One of the reasons some are high on Canales's squad is rejuvenated quarterback Bryce Young. His debut season in '23 was followed by a forgettable first two outings in 2024.

In 14 games, he accounted for 36 total tackles, two tackles for loss and only half a sack. Granted, stats don't always show the full extent of a player's impact, especially for defensive tackles, and the Seahawks' defense was definitely better with Murphy on the field than off of it.

Cowboy Roundup: Saquon Barkley's comments don't matter, Can Dallas win NFC East?. July is now officially in full swing, and we are all counting down the days until teams around the NFL report for training camp. With just under three weeks until the Cowboys report, there is still time for the team to bring in camp bodies or veterans who could bolster the roster at positions of need, so we'll have to wait and see if the front office decides to get active. Eagles running back Saquon Barkley caused a stir when he revealed the Dallas Cowboys did not reach out to him during 2024 free agency, but it doesn't really matter. InsideTheStar.com takes a look at why no one should care about the past Barkley is rehashing.

Sure, the Packers, Vikings and Lions might have one or even two backs who rate higher individually, but the Bears' backfield plan under Johnson for this season looks like a true group effort rather than one or two backs.
