The New York Giants are getting some (slight) revenge for the Saquon Barkley thing. Adam Schefter of ESPN reported on Tuesday that the Giants are signing veteran safety Jalen Mills. They have reached agreement on a one-year deal with the 29-year-old Mills. Mills had been with the New England Patriots for the last three seasons. But he was originally drafted by the rival Philadelphia Eagles in 2016 and started on Philly’s Super Bowl LII-winning team in the 2017 season. The ceiling is not all that high anymore for Mills, who has transitioned from cornerback to safety in recent years and had been…
Puka Nacua had one of, if not the most impressive, rookie campaigns for a wide receiver in NFL history. The Rams’ rookie broke multiple receiving records, including the most receptions and yards in league history, which filled an endless list of all-time greats. Even crazier is that he did it as a fifth-round draft pick, the 20th overall receiver in the 2023 NFL Draft. To say that the Rams found a diamond in the rough would be an understatement. Whether it was making impossible catches or just being at the right place at the right time, Nacua proved to be an excellent…

And now, after trade rumors seemed to indicate Fields would either end up with the Atlanta Falcons, Las Vegas Raiders, or Pittsburgh Steelers, there might not be a suitable trade partner for the Ohio State product, according to…

The Detroit Lions don’t have to worry about the potential of losing Jared Goff to NFL free agency for another year. However, the Kirk Cousins contract signed by the Atlanta Falcons could have a ripple effect on the Lions’ cap situation and roster management moving forward. Detroit is among the leaders in cap space this offseason, which helped them land edge rusher Marcus Davenport on Monday. The Lions’ front office is expected to remain active in NFL free agency in the days to come, but the club also has to think about the future. In 2025, offensive tackle Taylor…
