Jets fire GM Mike Maccagnan, and the decision might be tied to the signing of LeVeon Bell. Adam Gase, some believe, didn’t want New York to sign Bell. Interesting. more »

Factoid: Will Fuller
I have interest in Will Fuller. He’s had a lot of issues with injuries, but when he’s healthy, he’s been pretty special with Deshaun Watson. more »

Around the NFL: Kyle Rudolph, Part 2
The Vikings are looking to move on from Kyle Rudolph, with contract a factor. He could be traded or released in the coming weeks. What's interesting is the fact that the tight end position didn't exactly thrive last year in the first season of the Kirk Cousins era anyway. more »

Around the NFL: Rudolph on the move
Kyle Rudolph is on the trading block, and it looks like he’ll be moved sooner rather than later.

Around the NFL: Broncos receivers
In a lot of early drafts I've seen Emmanuel Sanders selected way earlier than I'd consider him. He's 32 years old and coming back from a torn Achilles, and that's an injury where a full recovery can't be assumed. Seems like Courtland Sutton should be viewed a lot more favorably. more »

Who was the last other pass catcher drafted in the first round who pulled this kind of stunt? This other player caught passes for two other franchises before returning to the team that originally picked him in the first round? answer »

Factoid: Rookie tacklers
Last year was a great year for rookie defensive players. Maybe it was an unusually talented class, or maybe it speaks to teams' willingness to put those players in the starting lineup quickly. Whatever the case, it was the most productive group of defenders we've seen in a long time. more »

Factoid: Post-Gronk Pats
Let me take another stab at the Benjamin Watson signing. I posted a quick hot take earlier, but since that time, I’ve had to look at things closer (when I was going in to revise the Patriots team story for the magazine). more »
