Jim Harbaugh And Chip Kelly Go To Bat For Colin Kaepernick
NFL free agency began three weeks ago, and Colin Kaepernick is still a man without a team, even in a league in which Mike Glennon just got $19 million guaranteed to actually start for someone. Is Kaepernick being blackballed because of his national anthem protest? It he still unsigned because of his...
"Megatron's Butthole" Is Stopped Up
The Atlanta Falcons will ostensibly begin play this fall in their new stadium (with its eight-petal retractable roof, which Drew referred to as “Megatron’s Butthole” and now I cannot think of it any other way). Except: the stadium was supposed to be open by now. But it wasn’t ready, so they pushed i...
Report: The NFLPA Already Has Problems With Tom Coughlin
Tom Coughlin, the Jaguars’ new executive vice president of football operations, has been brought into Jacksonville to try and turn the Jaguars into a competent football team.

Brandon Marshall Was Also Delighted By Jay Cutler's Bare Ass

The Billion-Dollar NFL Concussion Settlement Is A New Kind Of Disaster
The six-year long, billion-dollar NFL concussion class-action lawsuit is finally drawing near a close, but the infighting and confusion that has dogged the suit since its beginning continues as fierce as ever.

Where Will The Raiders Play The Next Three Years?
The Raiders are off to Las Vegas, but—not just yet. Construction has not yet begun on their fancy new stadium, financed with $750 million in taxpayer money, and it won’t be ready for action until 2020. That leaves three seasons, and for at least one of them—probably more—they’ll have to find somewh...
Roger Goodell Is Finally Going Back To Foxborough
The last time that Roger Goodell attended a Patriots home game was New England’s 2015 AFC Championship Game victory over the Colts, which has since gone down in infamy as the fateful night that kicked off the never-ending Ballghazi scandal. A quick recap: After discovering that the Patriots may hav...
Good News: The NFL Has More Rules
As everyone knows, the best part of the NFL season is when the league gets the chance to add rules and bylaws to an already-impenetrable rulebook. One of the new additions is a ban on players jumping over linemen to block field goal kicks....
Look At Jay Cutler's Ass
Jay Cutler’s unemployed and on vacation, which means that instead of worrying about preparing for the Jets, the quarterback gets to enjoy the weather and pose nude for wife Kristin Cavallari’s Instagram. A photo of Cutler’s butt lies within this post; consider yourself warned....
Why The Vote To Move The Raiders To Las Vegas Wasn't Unanimous
NFL owners like to project solidarity, even if it doesn’t exist. It’s better for their product and their PR if they present a united front in matters of league import, rather than a group of factious, occasionally squabbling mega-wealthy looking out for themselves and trying to out-earn each other i...
Yes, Yes, No, No, No, Yes, No, No, Yes, No, Yes, No, No, No, No, Yes, No, Yes, No, Yes, No, Yes, Yes, No, No, No, Yes, No, No, No
The NFL head coaches met in Phoenix for their annual meeting, and as usual, posed for a group photo. Gone is Jeff Fisher and his leisure suit, but Andy Reid’s vacation vibes remain. Ben McAdoo’s hair is exactly as you saw it last....
The Raiders Are Moving To Las Vegas And It Stinks

Bears Sign Mark Sanchez, For Some Reason
Former Jets and Eagles quarterback Mark Sanchez is back, baby. The Chicago Bears added Sanchez to their dogpile at quarterback and signed him to a one-year deal tonight, per a report from Ian Rapoport which was later confirmed by Adam Schefter....
Skins Finally Do Something Right, Propose An End To Those Ugly Color Rush Jerseys
Thursday Night Football is the NFL at its worst. Between the half-rested players and the blindingly ugly uniforms, it’s no wonder that Richard Sherman characterized it as a “poopfest.” Two years ago, the NFL made teams play in monochromatic Nike “Color Rush” jerseys for the express purpose of sellin...
Contracts That Void Themselves, And Other Ways NFL Teams Are Beating The Players
NFL teams use all sorts of contractual techniques to limit the earning power of players, from injury splits to per-game roster bonuses to an abundance of one-year “prove it” deals. But there’s nothing quite as breathtaking as NFL contracts that automatically void—contract language that literally mak...
