The Vikings announced a number of front office updates yesterday as new general manager Nolan Teasley began to shape the group around him. In some of those updates, Minnesota parted ways with quite a few personnel staffers, chief among them being former assistant general manager Demitrius Washington. According to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, the team is expected to name his replacement(s) soon.

Per Pelissero, Andrew Healy and Trent Kirchner are expected to be named assistant general managers sometime over the next few days. Pelissero’s NFL Network colleague Ian Rapoport added that Healy “will serve as the team’s [secondary football...

Hello, good evening and welcome to day two of the 2026 World Cup. After Mexico and Canada held their opening matches it’s now time for the United States to have their opener. Tonight, they go up against a CONMEBOL competitor Paraguay.

I’m not going to try and do any kind of breakdown of the game because I don’t follow soccer nearly at all and to attempt it would confuse y’all and annoy me (ugh, reading). So instead I’ll say here is your open thread for watching the USMNT with your fellow Texans fans Americans.

Who: USMNT v. Paraguay...

The Minnesota Vikings are going through a crucial offseason as head coach Kevin O’Connell is in the early stages of determining the winner of the quarterback derby. Holdover J.J. McCarthy and former Arizona Cardinal Kyler Murray will show off their talents throughout training camp and into the preseason before the head coach makes a decision on who will be under center when the Vikings host the Green Bay Packers in Week 1.

O’Connell is under extreme pressure as the Vikings prepare for the 2026 season, which is his fifth with the team. The Vikings have had two playoff seasons under...

This week's edition of the PFR mailbag addresses questions regarding the top three NFC West teams from 2025. Patrick Mahomes' new Chiefs deal, its implications, and more, are also covered.

James asks:

If [Aaron] Donald comes back, do you see the Rams as the clear favorite? Or are the Seahawks somehow being slept on?

It will certainly be interesting to see if Donald really does come back in 2026, won’t it? I don’t know if he’s in position to play a full season after two years out of the game, but signing in time for the playoffs would (well, should)...

Any soccer fans out there? Lamar Jackson said he was going to “look into” the World Cup, so we figured we’d give Ravens fans a place to talk about the U.S. Men’s National Team’s debut against Paraguay!

“I really haven’t followed soccer this season, but I’m going to try,” Jackson said on Wednesday, adding that he was excited for the World Cup, which is being co-hosted by the U.S. along with Mexico and Canada.

The United States is thought to be the best team in Group D, sitting 17th in FIFA’s current rankings, followed by Turkey (23rd), Australia (27th), and...

As the NFL offseason transitions into the dead zone, it felt like the right time to revisit Jacksonville’s recent draft history. The general rule of thumb around the league is that a draft class should be given at least three years to be fairly evaluated. With several Trent Baalke selections now approaching contract extension territory, that window has arrived. Baalke’s 2021 to 2024 tenure in Jacksonville draws mixed reviews from the fanbase, but credit where it’s due, there are day two and day three picks worth acknowledging.

So which one stands above the rest?

The Pittsburgh Steelers inked two big players to contract extensions recently. They signed OLB Nick Herbig to a mammoth extension, and his production has been strong compared to his snap usage. The other player, TE Darnell Washington, is supremely talented. So why did the Steelers sign Washington to an extension? Former Steelers RB Merril Hoge […]
