The franchise quarterback is unhappy and has the power to influence his next destination. That, along with a salary-cap hit, complicates things for the Texans.
With the Lions agreeing to try to trade quarterback Matthew Stafford and with Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson possibly asking for a trade of his own, it makes sense for an annual (or so) refresher on how trades work in January and February. Teams can strike unofficial deals now; there’s nothing that prevents them from doing […]
After a dozen seasons in Detroit, quarterback Matthew Stafford will be moving on. So where will he go? Plenty of teams will be interested, especially with a contract that pays out only $20 million in 2021. (He may want a new deal on the way through the door, however.) Despite being only a one-time Pro […]
Matthew Stafford is on the way out in Detroit. Stafford told the team he wants to be traded and the Lions plan to trade him, Tom Pelissero of NFL.com reports.

Perhaps the most controversial play of this year’s playoffs happened when Chiefs safety Daniel Sorensen forced Browns receiver Rashard Higgins to fumble into the end zone with a helmet-to-helmet hit that wasn’t flagged. Sorensen was also not fined for the hit, Tom Pelissero of NFL Media reports. A fine would be a tacit acknowledgement that […]
The Buccaneers have elevated safety Javon Hagan and guard Ted Larsen from their practice squad for Sunday’s NFC Championship Game.

Hagan coming up from the practice squad should provide […]
The Chiefs announced they promoted receiver Marcus Kemp and defensive back Chris Lammons to the active roster from the practice squad.

The Falcons have announced four more coaching hires. They named Gary Emanuel as defensive line coach, Steve Hoffman as a senior assistant, Justin Peelle as tight ends coach and Matt Pees as a defensive assistant.

The news that NBCSN will wind down by the end of the year was met by some with confusion and surprise (and, in a few cases, superfluous condolences).

Coaches who get fired with years remaining on guaranteed contracts have two options: Don’t work and get paid 100 cents on the dollar by the former employer or take a job and see the amount owed from the former employer reduced by the money earned at a new job. Basically, the coach who takes another […]
Chiefs cornerback Bashaud Breeland will play tomorrow against the Bills. The Chiefs announced today that Breeland has cleared the concussion protocol and is no longer on the team’s injury report.
