Dallas Cowboys star pass rusher Micah Parsons has been in the news recently after leaving the door open to join the Pittsburgh Steelers somewhere down the line. The former first-round pick is from Harrisburg, PA, and played his college ball at Penn State. This hometown reunion is extremely unlikely for a number of reasons. The Cowboys are going to pay Parsons every penny it takes to keep him in Dallas, and Parsons confessed he has ‘no interest in playing anywhere but with the Cowboys’. Seeing Parsons don the black and gold would be a dream, but there’s a bigger…

The New England Patriots could pounce on star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb amid trade speculation due to his absence at Dallas Cowboys mandatory minicamp. That’s how Bleacher Report’s Brad Gagnon sees it since the Patriots don’t have an elite No. 1 receiver. New England’s offense looked lackluster for all of 2023 with the team’s top receivers underperforming amid 13.9 points per Gagnon proposed the Patriots could trade rookie wide receiver Ja’Lynn Polk and a future first-round draft pick to the Cowboys for Lamb. New England could easily afford Lamb amid $44.25 million in salary cap space, and Lamb wants to…
Why Riddick believes rookie 49ers receivers could replace Deebo originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area The 49ers possess arguably the most potent offensive skill-position player group in the NFL, but that didn’t stop San Francisco from adding a pair of wide receivers in the 2024 draft. But could those selections have been made in preparation for a future that doesn’t include one of the 49ers’ star wide receiver duo of Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk? ESPN’s Louis Riddick certainly believes so. During a segment on “NFL Live,” Riddick explained that San Francisco’s decision to select Florida wide receiver Ricky…
The Dallas Mavericks will play the Boston Celtics in Game 2 of the NBA Finals at TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts, on Sunday. Despite their 107-89 loss in Game 1, coach Jason Kidd told reporters that there’s “no panic” with his team. “There’s no panic with this group,” Kidd said after Saturday’s practice. “We didn’t play well in Game 1. Give credit to Boston; they did. But it’s a series. We don’t just look or capitalize on just one game. We’ve lost Game 1 a lot of times, and we’ve responded. We believe that we can respond in Game 2.”…
Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers exited the club’s loss to the White Sox earlier Saturday due to left knee soreness, though manager Alex Cora told reporters (including Tom Caron of NESN) following the game that the club is hopeful that the issue isn’t more serious than that. Caron also relayedcomments from Devers himself about the issue. The 27-year-old noted that he would not be in the lineup for tomorrow’s series finale against Chicago but that he hoped to be back in the lineup for the start of the club’s series against the Phillies in Boston on Tuesday. The news…
LAKE FOREST, Ill.., — The Chicago Bears wrapped up day three of mandatory minicamp on Thursday with all eyes on the 2024 first-overall draft pick in Caleb Williams as he gets his feet wet in the NFL. The former Heisman trophy winner got his first exposure to playing against an NFL defense in the past three days, as he played in 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 drills against the likes of Pro Bowl-caliber players like linebacker Tremaine Edmunds and cornerback Jaylon Johnson. As expected, growing pains were the theme of many reports out of minicamp for Williams. The rookie signal-caller reportedly…
It is possible, however outlandish it might seem now, that the Cowboys and wide receiver CeeDee Lamb will continue their game of contract chicken into NFL training camp, have it morph into a holdout from Lamb and ultimately create so much negative energy that Cowboys brass finally decides to chuck it all in and simply trade Lamb elsewhere. Longshot, no doubt. But also possible. Lamb did not show up for mandatory practices last week, and could be fined around $100,000 for the decision. Those fines will continue if he goes into training camp without a new deal, at…
Once again, the Phoenix Suns’ season ended in disappointment, far from the NBA Finals and their fans’ expectations. Despite what owner Mat Ishbia said at the end of the season, the team could make changes this summer. According to John Gambadoro, via Evan Sidery, the Suns have three roster needs that they are prioritizing this offseason. Apparently, they are looking for a point guard who can play more than 20 minutes per game as well as a backup big-man upgrade over Drew Eubanks. Finally, they are looking for a young, athletic wing to fill out the roster.
Over the past seven seasons, few players on the defensive side of the football have had as much impact in the secondary as veteran cornerback Darius Slay, who has been named to a Pro Bowl six of those seven seasons and an All-Pro once while playing for the Detroit Lions and Philadelphia Eagles. Despite being successful ever since joining the Eagles, it appears that he seriously considered leaving the team last NFL offseason, which would’ve been a major blow for Philadelphia, in order to join Lamar Jackson and company with the Baltimore Ravens.
