The Pittsburgh Steelers’ quarterback position continues to be surrounded by all sorts of rumors in the offseason. The Steelers only have one quarterback with a contract for the 2024 NFL season, and that’s Kenny Pickett, who’s already gotten the support from the team as Pittsburgh’s QB1. But that hasn’t stopped people from wondering what is OUT there for the Steelers.  Justin Fields Rumors Continue To Follow The Pittsburgh Steelers  Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields has long been linked to the Steelers, but Pittsburgh hasn’t significantly moved the needle on that front (at least that’s what it seems from the outside).…

That sound you just heard is the collective groan of every science professor in Lubbock after Texas Tech Red Raiders product and 2024 NFL Draft prospect Tyler Owens said that he doesn’t believe in space or planets outside of Earth.  “I don’t believe in space,” Owens said at the NFL Combine on Thursday. “I don’t think there’s, like, other planets and stuff like that,” he added. “I thought I used to believe in the heliocentric thing where we used to revolve around the sun and stuff. But then I started seeing flat earth stuff and I was like, this is…

Maybe Eric Bieniemy is the problem. That seems to be the message Stephen A. Smith tried to get across when he recently spoke about the now-UCLA Bruins offensive coordinator. In a shocking change of tune, Smith said that he has come to a point of realization that it doesn’t make sense for him to defend and campaign for Bieniemy as a potential head coach of an NFL franchise (h/t Awful Announcing). “I have spent years lamenting the state of affairs when it comes to the state of affairs as it pertains to the National Football League and Black coaches,” said…

When it comes to football, there is no team better than the Kansas City Chiefs, and they have the Vince Lombardi Trophy to show as evidence. But in terms of making the players satisfied with different areas related to an array of subjects including quality of team facilities and ownership, there is barely anything that signifies winning within the Chiefs organization, as reflected by the latest annual team report cards from surveys conducted by the NFL Players Association. In fact, the Kansas City Chiefs, who are on a quest to win three Super Bowls in a row, came in second…

But there’s also Mason Rudolph, whom the Steelers want to retain amid the looming 2024 NFL free agency.  The Pittsburgh Steelers Don’t Have Full Control Of Mason Rudolph’s Outlook But the desire to have Rudolph back in Pittsburgh isn’t enough for the Steelers to keep him in the…

Terrion Arnold has yet to see a single snap in the NFL. He does’t even know yet which team will take him at the 2024 NFL Draft. But in his mind, he is already a Pro Football Hall of Famer. “I write it down every day and say I refuse to ever let that happen again. And that’s what’s going to lead me and take me to getting that gold jacket, which is the Hall of Fame. The gold jacket, and I ain’t talking about the one you could buy,” the former Alabama Crimson Tide star said on Thursday at…

The Las Vegas Raiders don’t have an inspiring quarterback situation. They have Jimmy Garoppolo, who likely has played his last game in Raiders uniform, and Aidan O’Connell, who just doesn’t have the look and play of a potential franchise quarterback. The 2024 NFL Draft is coming right up, and with it comes hope for the Raiders to select a potential future long-term QB. Las Vegas Raiders Head Coach Antonio Pierce Is Enamored With Jayden Daniels Las Vegas Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce has not hidden his admiration for one of the top NFL QB prospects this year in LSU Tigers…

New Orleans Saints pending free agent Jameis Winston is not yet ready to surrender his dreams of becoming a QB1 again, and he knows that’s unlikely to happen in 2024 with the Saints, who still have Derek Carr atop the quarterback pecking order. It’s looking like the former Heisman Trophy winner and No. 1 overall pick at the 2015 NFL Draft is on his way to the waters of NFL free agency. New Orleans Saints head coach Dennis Allen recently shared his thoughts on Winston and the QB’s outlook on the team, though, he did not provide any concrete insight…

Caleb Williams has finally addressed the rumors that he has no interest in playing for the Chicago Bears. The USC Trojans product has dispelled that notion in a recent interview with ESPN. He even gave a solid outlook for the Bears, who still have Justin Fields in the fold. “If I get drafted by the Bears, I’ll be excited,” he said. “If they trade the pick, and I get drafted by someone else, I’m just as excited. Speaking about Chicago, they have a talented team, a talented offense and defense. For anyone to be in that situation, I think they’d…
