    Falcons to sign CB A.J. Terrell to 4-year, $81M extension

    The Falcons have been beefing up their defense, and their latest move is to lock down standout cornerback A.J. Terrell. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Atlanta has signed Terrell to a four-year, $81 million contract extension that includes a massive $65.8 million guaranteed. That's the largest guarantee ever given to an NFL cornerback, and Terrell's $20.25M average salary makes him the second-highest paid cornerback ever.

    Over the last week or so, the Falcons have also traded for linebacker Matthew Judon and signed free agent safety Justin Simmons.

  • Bengals DE Miles Murphy expected to miss 4-6 weeks with knee sprain

    Cincinnati Bengals defensive end and 2023 first-round pick Myles Murphy is expected to be sidelined for four to six weeks with a knee sprain, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

    Murphy, 22, suffered the injury on a non-contact play on Tuesday, according to reports, and needed to be helped off the field. The Bengals have already lost Cam Semple for the season with a torn Achilles and just got Sam Hubbard back to practice.

    Last season, Murphy compiled three sacks and 20 tackles, with three QB hits and three tackles for loss. He was Cincinnati's first-round pick (No. 28 overall) out of Clemson.

    Panthers, Seahawks work out a trade

    Jackson, 27, is entering his fourth NFL season. He has played 17 games in each of the past two seasons with 1 career interception and 19 pass deflections. Barrett was selected in the seventh round (240th overall) in the 2024 NFL draft out of Michigan.

  • Commanders trade WR Jahan Dotson to Eagles for picks

    The Commanders have made a rare in-division trade. They've traded wide receiver Jahan Dotson, a 2022 first-round pick, to the Eagles. Dotson and a 2025 fifth-round pick are headed to Philly, while Washington receives a third-round pick and two seventh-round picks in the 2025 draft.

    Washington selected Dotson with the 16th overall pick in the 2022 draft, but he has yet to deliver on the promise of that draft position. Now he's getting a fresh start with the Eagles, who want to see what he can do without the expectations of a first-round pick on his head.

  • Aaron Rodgers done with preseason, will play next in Week 1

  • Will Haason Reddick report to Jets? Not even Robert Saleh knows

    The salary standoff between the Jets and Haason Reddick continues to drag on, and at this point no one knows how it might end. That includes head coach Robert Saleh — though no one is going to believe he "hasn't really thought about" when Reddick will report.

  • Commanders trade for kicker Cade York

  • Linval Joseph to the Cowboys

    The Cowboys are shoring up the middle of their defense with veteran DT Linval Jospeh, who played for the Bills last season.

  • Russell Wilson says he's going to play in Saturday's preseason finale

    Wilson, who is currently trying to hold off Justin Fields in the Steelers' QB competition, said Wednesday he's going to play against the Lions on Saturday.

    He's been the favorite for the starting job for months and seems to have head coach Mike Tomlin's backing. Wilson went 8-of-10 for 47 yards in the Steelers' loss to the Bills in preseason Week 2, and neither he nor Fields have had much success leading Pittsburgh's offense this month.

    Jahmyr Gibbs is on pace to play in the Detroit Lions' season opener.

    Gibbs, who left practice earlier this month with a hamstring injury, is "trending the right way" to be available for their season opener against the Los Angeles Rams on Sept. 8. Gibbs is expected to return to practice next week, coach Dan Campbell said on Tuesday, after their final preseason game this weekend.

    "He's trending the right way," Campbell said, via ESPN. "Wish we had more practice with him, but as far as the health of it, he is healing and he's on schedule to be back and get his legs back under him and we'll see where he's at."

    Daniels was the No. 2 overall pick in this past April's NFL Draft, and went 10-of-12 for 78 yards in the Commanders' preseason loss to the Dolphins over the weekend. The 2023 Heisman Trophy winner earned solid reviews in joint practices last week with Miami, and looked good in his preseason debut against the Jets on August 10 too.

  • Cowboys officially sign DE Carl Lawson

    Lawson spent the past three seasons with the Jets, and is two years removed from a seven-sack campaign. Last season, he was hindered by a back injury in preseason and ultimately fell out of the Jets' pass rush rotation.

    Steelers RB Jaylen Warren to miss multiple weeks

    Jaylen Warren may be sidelined for the Pittsburgh Steelers' season opener this fall. Warren went down with a hamstring injury in their preseason loss to the Buffalo Bills on Saturday.

    Though specifics are not yet known, Warren will miss "multiple weeks" due to the injury, the NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported on Sunday.

    Warren ran for a career-high 784 yards and four touchdowns last season, his second with the Steelers.

    The Steelers will open the regular season against the Atlanta Falcons on Sept. 8, which is exactly three weeks away. Warren's status for that matchup is now in doubt.

    Steelers center Nate Herbig out with torn rotator cuff

    The Pittsburgh Steelers will be without center Nate Herbig for the forseeable future. Herbig sustained a torn rotator cuff in training camp last week, according to ESPN's Brooke Pryor. Though specifics aren't yet known, he's expected to miss a significant amount of time.

    Herbig was the Steelers' top reserve lineman last season, and he was active for all 17 games. With him now out, rookie center Zach Frazier will likely start at center this fall. Frazier was selected in the second round of the draft out of West Virginia.

    "Zach's a hard worker," Steelers quarterback Justin Fields said Thursday, via ESPN. "He's humble, doesn't say much, but boy, he works. So glad to have him on the o-line and I mean, he's a strong, strong boy.

    "He's smart too, so it's great to see a rookie that young, that smart controlling where the protections are going. I'll flip a protection, and he already had done it before I'll even do it sometimes. So just seeing that from him, knowing how smart he is, is definitely a good thing to see."

    Marquez Valdes-Scantling out with neck injury

    Though X-rays came back negative, which is a good sign, Buffalo Bills wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling sustained a neck injury in Saturday's 9-3 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Valdes-Scantling left that game on a cart.

    It's unclear how long he'll be sidelined, or if this will impact his status for their Week 1 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals on Sept. 8.

    Gardner Minshew named as starting QB for the Raiders

    Minshew Mania is back for 2024, with Las Vegas Raiders coach Antonio Pierce announcing Sunday that Gardner Minshew will be the Raiders' starting quarterback for this season.

    Minshew, who won the starting job over second-year QB Aidan O'Connell, signed a two-year deal with the Raiders in March. The mustachioed play-caller spent last season with the Indianapolis Colts, throwing for a career-high 3,305 yards and 15 touchdowns in 13 starts; however, he was also sacked 34 times and threw nine interceptions.

  • Bengals kicker Evan McPherson signs 3-year contract extension

    Cincinnati Bengals kicker Evan McPherson signed a three-year extension through the 2027 season, the team announced on Sunday. The deal is worth $16.5 million, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.

    The contract agreement was reported on Friday, but became official with the Bengals releasing a statement and photos of McPherson signing the deal on its social media account.

    Last season, McPherson made 26 of 31 field goals (84%) with a long of 56 yards. He was also perfect on extra points, kicking through 40 of his 40 attempts.

    For his career, McPherson has made 84% (78-for-93) of his field goal attempts, his longest being for 59 yards.

The deal, worth up to $10 million, has $7 million guaranteed and will keep Gilmore in Minnesota for at least one season.

  • NFL Preseason Blitz: Chiefs have a new weapon, Jayden Daniels and Malik Nabers shine

    Rookies took center stage again on Saturday with full slate of Week 2 preseason games. Chiefs rookie WR Xavier Worthy flashed his big-play ability, including a 37-yard grab from Patrick Mahomes.

    For the Commanders, rookie QB Jayden Daniels looked good for his second straight preseason games with a strong, efficient performance.

    And the Giants got to see some positive signs from rookie No. 6 overall pick Malik Nabers, who four catches for 54 yards.

  • Caleb Williams starts slow, finishes strong in 2nd preseason game

    The Bears' hyped No. 1 draft pick Caleb Williams didn't look quite as sharp in Saturday's preseason clash with the Bengals as he did in his debut a week earlier.

  • Michael Penix done for the preseason

    The Falcons have seen enough of their rookie QB and No. 8 overall draft pick Michael Penix after one preseason game. Head coach Raheem Morris said he won't play again this preseason, which is a curious decision considering Penix seems unlikely to see much action in the regular season with Kirk Cousins as the established starter.

    Deebo Samuel has faith Brandon Aiyuk will remain with 49ers

    Also on Friday, 49ers GM John Lynch said he's "hopeful" a deal can get done with Aiyuk.

    "You know, I'm not going to characterize any chances or anything," Lynch said. "I can tell you this, it's been a long, arduous, hard process, a hard journey. We started this early and for whatever reason haven't been able to get it across the finish line. That's been frustrating, but the communication still has been really good both with Brandon and his agent, and we're trying to figure out solutions. You know I'm always hopeful. I'm an optimistic person in nature, and I'm always hopeful that we'll get there and get there soon. I can tell you, we feel the urgency to have him, the season's approaching, and we have ample time."

    “I'm free right now as in, where I am in life, what I’ve done here — not what I’ve done here, but who I’ve been here,” Dak Prescott told Yahoo Sports. “Understanding that sure, I'm deserving of [the next contract]. But then again, I mean, I told [my physical therapist] Luke [Miller] this: This game is judged off of winning the Super Bowl. And I understand people's angst, maybe their angst and me having not done that.

    “Hey, if these people want to move on, it's a business. But I know, as I said in the media, it's a two-way street.

    “Things have to be right from my end as well.”
