Super Bowl LVIII will be the ninth instance of a Super Bowl rematch deciding the league’s champion.

Now, Mahomes is going for his third, while the 49ers are trying to avoid a three-game losing streak in Super Bowl appearances. San Francisco won’t be the first…

CeeDee Lamb’s mom, Leta Ramirez, was not happy with how the Dallas Cowboys’ season ended during Super Wild Card Weekend.

That benefits the Steelers’ secondary, which lost a starting safety to a suspension in Week 15. Damontae Kazee earned a suspension for the final three games of the regular season after a hit that he laid on Colts wide receiver…

The rich will get richer, as the Baltimore Ravens are receiving reinforcements during their well-earned postseason bye week.

In his four-year career, Duvernay has 94 receptions for 898 yards and five touchdowns. Nice numbers, but…
