The New England Patriots are currently set up well with two young quarterbacks, Mac Jones and Bailey Zappe, who both have winning records as starting quarterbacks during their short tenure in the league.

Imitation is the finest form of flattery. Travis Kelce and the Chiefs secured the AFC championship game win over the Bengals, getting their win back from last year's title game and jumpstarting a Shawn Michaels vs. Bret Hart-esque feud. What happened after the bell set that up. Following the KC...

The 49ers' hopes of competing in the 2023 NFC championship game were quashed when starter Brock Purdy left after just a few plays due to an elbow injury. Now, the team is hoping that injury won't have an impact on its 2023 season. Purdy was diagnosed with a fully torn...

The 2022-2023 football season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers has seemingly been the most stressful, exhausting season of Tom Brady‘s life, not necessarily because of the demands of the NFL lifestyle or his age, but reportedly more so due to the “traumatizing” nature of his very public divorce from supermodel Gisele Bündchen in the midst of it all. According to ESPN reporter Jeff Darlington, who spoke about Brady’s second retirement announcement on the network’s “First Take” segment Wednesday morning, “He’s tired. I think it’s not just about the 23-year career … He’s 45 years old. It’s time to rest up.” Darlington...

If Derek Carr is going out, he's going out swinging. The longtime Raiders quarterback looks destined for a future away from Las Vegas after being benched the final two games of the regular season. If that is the case, then it seems likely that Carr made his last appearance in...

Should the NFL drop the Pro Bowl like it's hot? With Tyler "Snoop" Huntley getting a Pro Bowl selection on Tuesday, some seem to believe so. The Ravens quarterback was added to the AFC Pro Bowl roster Tuesday, replacing an injured Josh Allen — and displacing people's faith in the event.

The Pro Bowl has had an image problem for a while. Fans got bored watching the next-best stars in the league play two-hand touch the week before or after the Super Bowl. The answer? Make the event the Pro Bowl Games. Instead of one big football game, the NFL transitioned...

This year's Pro Bowl represents something of a crapshoot. That's not just because the festivities are taking place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, mind you. The league has given the annual competition a facelift, hoping to breathe life into an event that has tended to pass by on the calendar life a gentle breeze.

Super Bowl 57 should be one for the ages, as we have the AFC champion Chiefs taking on the NFC champion Eagles in Glendale, Arizona, next Sunday evening (6:30 p.m. ET, FOX). The Eagles enter the Super Bowl as 1.5-point favorites, with the total set at 50.5 points, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. Philadelphia defeated San Francisco 31-7 in the NFC championship game, while Kansas City took down Cincinnati 23-20 in the AFC championship game.

The 2023 Pro Bowl is getting a facelift in many ways. Gone are the days of a single exhibition game on Sunday for bragging rights, in are the days where the week's events lead to a cumulative score. The week leading up the flag football game on Sunday will feature...

Tom Brady announced that he is retiring from the NFL once again. But this time, the legendary quarterback says it's "for good." Brady's announcement came on social media, where he posted a 53-second clip Wednesday that revealed his decision. "I know the process was a pretty big deal last time,"...

It takes a special wide receiver turning in an amazing season to win Sporting News' Offensive Player of the Year. Justin Jefferson did just that for the Vikings in 2022. Based on voting from fellow NFL players, Jefferson beat out NFL MVP-caliber quarterbacks Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts for the prestigious honor. Jefferson becomes the third wide receiver to win Sporting News' Player of the Year in any capacity, joining Jerry Rice (a two-time winner) and Antonio Brown (for the Steelers in 2017).

Arian Foster made some waves on a podcast on Tuesday by claiming that the NFL is rigged and players received scripts before games. While it's difficult to say how serious he was being -- likely not at all -- he certainly had an inventive backstory regarding how the NFL managed its games.

Patrick Mahomes' Super Bowl showdown with fellow MVP candidate Jalen Hurts is being billed as a spectacle to end all spectacles. It's a game that certainly appeals to the average NFL fan: two of the league's most charismatic stars dueling in the biggest game of the season. Nick Bosa is...

While Super Bowl 57 is 11 days away, it's never too early to get your prop bets in before most of the public's money inflates the market.

We're attempting to get ahead of those line moves to get the best of the number, giving ourselves a higher chance to cash our tickets.

The 2023 Super Bowl is finally upon us, with Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts leading a star-studded battle of No. 1 seeds.

Considering this is our last chance to bet on NFL action for seven months, let's break down some of our favorite spread, moneyline, over/under, and prop bets for Super Bowl 57.

A lot happened during the 2022-23 NFL season and playoffs that was unpredictable, but in the end, the Chiefs and Eagles — objectively the two best teams in football — found their way to Super Bowl 57. It's the 14th Super Bowl meeting between two No. 1 seeds...

The NFL offseason isn't far from its official kickoff, just a month and a half away. Free agency and new league year opens on March 15 with the league legal tampering period beginning two days earlier. Although the biggest prizes might again be available via trade like last year with...
