A year ago, Jordan Love was somewhat of an enigma for the Green Bay Packers heading into the team’s first season post-Aaron Rodgers. Now, the 25-year-old quarterback is setting his sights on the sport’s most significant hardware. Love was one of the breakout stars of the 2023 season. Despite some shaky stretches in his first season as the Packers’ full-time starter, he ended the season strong enough to have the entire fan base behind him. Love led Green Bay to a resounding playoff win, completely dismantling the Dallas Cowboys in the Wild Card Round. But he wants more than just…

The New York Jets were apparently ever so close to landing a two-time Super Bowl champion in free agency. Then in familiar Jets fashion, disaster struck. Veteran linebacker Shaq Barrett on Friday admitted that he very strongly considered signing with the Jets before ultimately striking a deal with the Miami Dolphins. Barrett inked a one-year deal with the Dolphins worth up to $9 million. Shaq Barrett Revealed Just How Close He Was To Signing With The New York Jets Barrett spoke to CBS Sports radio host Zach Gelb on Friday about the last-minute twist in his free agency journey this…
Veteran quarterback Joe Flacco had no plans of being anyone’s babysitter when he decided to join the Indianapolis Colts this offseason. Flacco last week signed with the Colts on a one-year deal worth up to $8.7 million. While the deal comes with $4.5 million in guaranteed money, it doesn’t come with the guarantee of a starting gig. Flacco is expected to be the backup behind Anthony Richardson, who is working his way back from a significant shoulder injury that prematurely ended his rookie season. In Flacco’s eyes, being Richardson’s backup doesn’t automatically equate to being the youngster’s mentor. Joe Flacco…
Los Angeles Rams icon Aaron Donald hung up his cleats for good last week. Donald announced last Friday his decision to retire from the NFL, leaving the game as unequivocally one of the greatest defenders of all time. How high up he is on the defensive totem pole in NFL history remains up for debate. While fans and pundits can argue amongst themselves about Donald’s GOAT case, the man himself has his own answer for where he ranks. Los Angeles Rams Legend Aaron Donald Addresses The GOAT Defender Talk The Rams on Friday posted Donald’s first interview since announcing his…
Marquise “Hollywood” Brown last week became one of the newest members of the Kansas City Chiefs. The wide receiver has no regrets about his less-than-smooth path to get to where he is now. The Chiefs signed Brown to a 1-year deal last week to join their wide receiver room. The 26-year-old had played his last two seasons with the Arizona Cardinals. Brown ended up on the Cardinals following a trade request he made as a member of the Baltimore Ravens in 2021. Brown had asked out of the team that drafted him in the first round of the 2019 NFL…
Kirk Cousins made the move to join the Atlanta Falcons last week. But the veteran quarterback wasn’t able to bring his jersey number with him. Cousins has worn the number 8 for the last full decade, making the switch from 12 after his second year in the NFL. But there’s already a man wearing 8 on the Falcons — rising star tight end Kyle Pitts. One of the fun minor storylines about Cousins’ move to Atlanta was whether or not Cousins would ask for his usual jersey number from one of his soon-to-be pass catchers. That reportedly won’t…
It’s still unclear what kind of player Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson will ultimately become on the field. But one thing about Richardson seems pretty clear — the man is already a stud of a person off the field. The Colts rookie last week crossed paths with a 19-year-old named Parker Suddeth, who was going through some car trouble while driving down I-65. Richardson was kind enough to lend a hand when nobody else would. Indianapolis Colts QB Anthony Richardson Helps Out A Stranded Fan In Need Richardson went viral this week after Parker had posted the story and…
Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons on Friday got some sweet revenge against ESPN personality Stephen A. Smith at the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game. Parsons, who played for celebrity game coach Shannon Sharpe’s Team Shannon was the standout performer at Indiana’s Gainbridge Fieldhouse. The Cowboys star was named MVP of the contest, leading Team Shannon to a 100-91 win over Team Stephen A. The hulking pass rusher poured on 37 points and 16 rebounds to dominate Smith’s squad on the hardwood. Parsons also added a few extra jabs while accepting his Celebrity Game MVP trophy. https://twitter.com/BleacherReport/status/1758678661698343070 Micah Parsons Pokes Fun At Known…
There were several larger-than-life personalities tied to the Kansas City Chiefs’ win at Super Bowl LVIII. Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce wanted to shine the spotlight on one hidden hero who helped deliver the Lombardi Trophy to K.C. The San Francisco 49ers’ decision to receive the ball first in overtime during last week’s Super Bowl has been scrutinized to death at this point. The Niners scored a field goal in their first OT possession, which granted the Chiefs final say in the 25-22 victory at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada. The revamped overtime rules added a whole new dimension…
Former NFL star Cam Newton could have easily taken a victory lap after Brock Purdy and the San Francisco 49ers came up short at Super Bowl LVIII. Instead, Newton surprisingly came to Purdy’s defense. Newton had previously gone on record to point out Purdy’s limitations as a quarterback well before this season’s Super Bowl victor was decided last week at Allegiant Stadium. The former NFL MVP is the reason why the term “game manager” has been used to describe Purdy this season with debates raging about how much of his success was thanks to Niners head coach Kyle Shanahan. Cam…
