Sports analytics giant Pro Football Focus has identified Denver Broncos starting center Lloyd Cushenberry, an impending unrestricted free agent, as a candidate for the 2024 franchise tag — a maneuver that could bridge a long-term extension between player and team. “Cushenberry has turned himself into one of the better centers in the NFL after a rough start to his career,” PFF analyst Marcus Mosher wrote Wednesday. “The 2023 season was his best, allowing just one sack despite playing well over 1,000 snaps on offense. The Broncos and Cushenberry will likely come to a long-term agreement but don’t be surprised…
T-Wolves’ Anthony Edwards smashes head on rim during nasty game-winning blocked shot Minnesota Timberwolves All-Star guard Anthony Edwards might have had one of the best game-winning blocks in NBA history on Thursday night against the Indiana Pacers – one that left his head hurting. With the Timberwolves owning a 113-111 lead with just seconds to play in the fourth quarter, Edwards could not hit the dagger two-pointer, and the Pacers got the rebound with time to go down the floor and tie it. Pacers guard Aaron Nesmith received a long pass, and it looked like he was going to…
On Saturday evening, the Boston Celtics will be in Arizona for a showdown with the Phoenix Suns. For the game, the Celtics will have their best player in the starting lineup, as All-Star forward Jayson Tatum has been upgraded to available. The former Duke star had initially been listed as probable. Tatum is having another fantastic season and enters the evening with averages of 26.8 points, 8.4 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.0 steals per contest while shooting 47.6% from the field and 37.3% from the three-point range in 59 games. The Celtics are the first seed in the…
Why do I keep watching the endings of Sacramento Kings games? Maybe for the same reason that people slow down when they’re driving by the wreckage left by a car crash. Sometimes things are just so terrible, you can’t look away. Unfortunately, neither can Sacramento Kings Coach Mike Brown nor Phoenix Suns Coach Frank Vogel. Both coaches have had the unenviable bad fortune of having to stand there and watch their teams consistently crumple over in the 4th quarter like a couple of empty potato sacks. On Monday, March 4th, the Sacramento Kings choked away a 22-point lead to…
The Seattle Seahawks roster could look very different this season. Potential free agent losses and acquisitions will most likely come with the new Mike Macdonald coaching staff – especially on defense. And two players he coached last season in Baltimore could be on the move. Set to become free agents – among others – on the March 13 beginning of the new league year are Baltimore Ravens linebacker Patrick Queen and safety Geno Stone. Salary cap issues could prohibit Baltimore from signing one or both, and SBNation thinks Queen and Stone would be “free agent fits” in Seattle. GENO…

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson is reportedly at the center of trade interest ahead of free agency. (AP Photo/Nick Wass) Days before free agency kicks off, the Pittsburgh Steelers are reportedly listening to trade offers for wide receiver Diontae Johnson, according to The Athletic. Johnson is heading into the final year of a two-year, $36.1 million extension and has a cap hit of $15.8 million for the 2024-25 season. Johnson is coming off a year in which he played the fewest games (14) of his five-year career and hauled in 51 receptions for 717 yards and five touchdowns…
Having spent three seasons as defensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions, Aaron Glenn could be on the verge of getting his first chance as an NFL head coach. Per ESPN’s Dan Graziano, Glenn is considered a “strong candidate” to replace Mike Vrabel with the Tennessee Titans by people close to the situation: “The Titans are casting a wide and diverse net, and this is one of the tougher ones to call at this point, but Glenn has appeal as a former player, as a part of what Dan Campbell has built in Detroit and as the coordinator who…
ESPN is reporting that the New York Giants will meet with free agent cornerback Darious Williams on Sunday. Williams was released on March 5th by the Jacksonville Jaguars in order to create salary cap space. The 5’9”, 187-pound Williams, who turns 31 on March 15, was originally signed as an undrafted rookie free agent by the Baltimore Ravens after the 2018 NFL Draft. He has spent time with the Ravens (2018), Los Angeles Rams (2018-2021), and Jaguars (2022-2023). In his six NFL seasons, Williams has played in 80 regular-season games with 55 starts, accruing 236 tackles, 62 pass defenses,…
seemed like yesterday when Miami Heat fans were rejoicing their team amidst consecutive strong wins. Now, they are back to dishing insults after another close loss to a title contender, this time against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Like Thursday night, Miami built a first half lead that was undone by a strong third quarter from Oklahoma City and highly contested fourth quarter. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 37 points, adding another star performance to his MVP-caliber season. The Heat did well against Chet Holmgren, who only had seven points on 3 of 9 shooting. Unfortunately, Miami’s big man failed to get…
