Rob Gronkowski addresses Tom Brady, Raiders rumors

While Tom Brady playing quarterback for the Las Vegas Raiders in 2023 — a team he has an ownership stake in — sounds a bit farfetched, the NFL says it’s definitely a possibility.A league spokesperson confirmed to TMZ Sports on Wednesday that Brady could take snaps for the Raiders even as a part owner of the team if agreed to by a consensus of the other NFL owners.“Two NFL-wide votes would need to happen in order for Brady to be a part of the Las Vegas ownership group and be under center at the same time,” TMZ Sports reported.Brady would...

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell declined to comment on if his club could pursue former Arizona Cardinals and Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins. "But I like our receivers room," Campbell added while speaking with reporters on Thursday, per Myles Simmons of Pro Football Talk.

Paul Chryst was a rather successful college football coach. The problem? He seemingly wore out his welcome at Wisconsin after a stretch that saw him basically dominate in the Big Ten from 2015-19.After leading Wisconsin, his alma mater, to 10-win campaigns in four of his first five seasons, Cyryst went 4-3 in 2020 and 9-4 in 2021, which was apparently enough of a "slip" to earn him a pink slip in 2022.
