Sounds Like Some Bad Blood Between The Broncos And Brock Osweiler
Brock Osweiler feels he’s more likely to be successful with the Texans than he would have been with the Broncos.

The Chiefs Will Fight The NFL On Tampering Penalties
The Kansas City Chiefs have been hit by the NFL with a raft of penalties for illegally tampering with Jeremy Maclin during 2015's “legal tampering” period, and, frankly, it’s pretty insane.

When Will The Browns Cut Johnny Manziel?
The Cleveland Browns are completely done with Johnny Manziel; Hue Jackson’s comments at the combine are as close to confirmation as anyone needs.

Report: The Broncos Would Go After Colin Kaepernick If They Lose Brock Osweiler

Chris Cooley Has A Whole Bunch Of Thoughts On RGIII
Four years ago today, Washington agreed to send three first-round picks and a second-rounder to St. Louis for the right to move up to draft Robert Griffin III. Today, Griffin is a free agent, and the man the Skins selected on the third day of that draft is their QB and set to make $20 million....
Eagles-Dolphins Trade Could Be Off Because Of Byron Maxwell's Shoulder
The NFL’s two-day “legal tampering period,” on top of having a silly name, is a silly idea. It’s designed for teams to talk to agents before free agency officially opens, but they’re not supposed to agree to deals, not even in principle. They always do, of course—that’s why those deals are officiall...
Ricardo Lockette Explains How He Could Have Died After Blindside Hit

DeAngelo Williams Has Petty And Righteous Thoughts About Peyton Manning
Today is the day when everyone is supposed to shower Peyton Manning with praise. That’s all fine and good, but I’m personally glad that DeAngelo Williams is here to balance things out with some raw pettiness (especially since much of it comes at the expense of Pete Prisco, wearer of weird shorts)....
Police: Tre Mason Refused To Cooperate, Was Tasered During Arrest
Rams running back Tre Mason was arrested in Hollywood on charges of resisting arrest, marijuana possession, and reckless driving on Saturday.

Report: The Broncos Could Lose Brock Osweiler To The Texans
