HENDERSON, Nev. (AP) — Derek Carr said Thursday night he will not extend the Feb. 15 deadline to help facilitate a trade from the Las Vegas Raiders. The Raiders must trade or release the quarterback by that date — three days after the Super Bowl — or Carr's contract will become guaranteed and Las Vegas will have to pay him $40.4 million over the next two years.

Aaron Rodgers said this week that he thought it was quote: 'interesting' that he was not involved in any rumored Green Bay Packers trade talks. Rodgers also raved about his former offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett, who is now with the New York Jets. Former teammate Davante Adams responded to a tweet asking which neighborhood Rodgers would move to by saying quote: 'mine.' Then, at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, Rodgers had this exchange on the broadcast, saying that he is quote: 'not going to San Fran.' Skip Bayless reacts to Rodgers' exchange, including why he would be a good fit with the Dallas Cowboys.

The 2022 NFL season isn't quite over yet — Super Bowl LVII between the Chiefs and Eagles is Feb. 12 (6:30 p.m. ET on FOX and the FOX Sports App) — but most teams, including all those in the AFC South, have shifted focus to 2023. Draft prep...

Russell Wilson may have had a down year last season but some help is on the way. The Denver Broncos hired Sean Payton as their next head coach after agreeing to a deal with the New Orleans Saints to trade their 2023 first-round pick and 2024 second-round pick for a 2024 third-round pick. The Athletic wrote that 'Payton's hiring leaves Russ with no excuses.' Emmanuel Acho, Joy Taylor, LeSean McCoy and David Helman debate on whether Russ is officially in the hot seat now.

Kyler Murray is apparently making it hard for the Arizona Cardinals to secure anyone promising in the head coaching position. The quarterback has garnered the reputation for being 'prickly' and previous spats with former coach Kliff Kingsbury may be sending red flags to prospects. Colin shares his thoughts on this 'unsurprising' turn of events.

Aaron Rodgers made it clear he wasn't looking to trade to the San Francisco 49ers, and the Green Bay Packers seem to be open to trading the QB to the AFC. That leaves Colin Cowherd to make a case for the Miami Dolphins. Watch as he explains why the veteran would best suit Miami, and reveals what other team in the AFC is going all out to acquire him.

Emmanuel Acho, LeSean McCoy, Joy Taylor, and David Helman debate whether Sean Payton can fix the Denver Broncos next season. Helman weighs in and explains it's a stretch for Payton to get the Broncos to the top of the AFC next year but believes he can improve Russell Wilson and the offense.

FOX Sports NFL analyst Mark Sanchez joins Colin Cowherd on The Herd to discuss what he will remember most about Tom Brady and his illustrious NFL career. The two discuss Brady’s passion and commitment for the game of football.

After 23 seasons Tom Brady announced his retirement this morning. The 45 year-old quarterback was a 15-time Pro Bowler, seven-time Super Bowl champion and holds nearly every major all-time passing record in the NFL. Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe react to Brady’s retirement.

TAMPA, Fla. — The retirement of an iconic player like Tom Brady is a tremendous loss for any team to overcome. As much as he has changed the Buccaneers franchise in the last three years, Tampa Bay's goal now is to continue his legacy of winning, without him. "You...

The Kansas City Chiefs are back in the Super Bowl, making their third trip in the last four seasons. But they've got their work cut out for them if they plan to get by the Eagles in the Big Game. And speaking of having their work cut out for them...

The offseason isn't officially underway yet, but the Dallas Cowboys have already promised change — at least at one position. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said Dallas will start over at kicker after Brett Maher missed five of his six extra-point attempts over two playoff games. Maher missed four extra points in the team's wild-card win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and his lone extra-point attempt in the divisional-round loss to the San Francisco 49ers was blocked.

Sean Payton is headed to Denver, but I’ve got to say: The last year working with him on FOX was an absolute blast. If the Broncos are getting the type of culture-builder and high-energy guy who appeared on our hour-long "pre-" pregame show this Fall on FOX, they're going to very happy with every cent (and yes, there were many cents) spent on the 61-year-old Super Bowl-winning head coach.

PHILADELPHIA — The first years they spent together were lean ones, with more coaching changes than trips to the playoffs. There was no sense back then that they were the building blocks of greatness. They didn’t even win their first postseason game until they had played together five years.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are about to find out what the New England Patriots discovered the past few seasons: It is hard to replace a legend at quarterback. With Tom Brady dropping his retirement notice via social media, the Buccaneers are suddenly facing life without a quarterback in a quarterback-driven league. Moreover, the franchise is hunting for a QB1 after being spoiled by a seven-time Super Bowl winner with off-the-charts intangibles and football character.

Emmanuel Acho, LeSean McCoy, Joy Taylor, and David Helman discuss Las Vegas Raiders WR Davante Adams recruiting Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers via social media. Joy explains the two are better together and with the possibility of Rodgers leaving Green Bay it would be great to see them reunite.

The retirement announcement wasn't a true surprise — how can it be, when it involves a 45-year-old football player? — but boy, it was something. Tom Brady walked away from football early on Wednesday morning, with a simple video post, on his phone, on a beach, fighting back emotion, and none of us should expect a reversal, not this time.
