Browns HC Todd Monken Not Interested in QB Brendan Sorsby; Latest On Team s QB Competition
Browns head coach Todd Monken is not tipping his hand when it comes to his team s starting quarterback competition. While the media currently views Deshaun Watson as the favorite to open the season under center, second-year passer Shedeur Sanders remains in the mix and has impressed Monken with his progress in the mental side of […]

The Athletic's Zach Berman believes "it's not a stretch to speculate" that Saquon Barkley could have a greater role as a pass catcher.
Berman notes that Barkley had 136 targets in his final two seasons with the Giants compared to just 93 with the Eagles over the past two years, and adds that new OC Sean Mannion was teammates with Todd Gurley when Gurley averaged 84 targets in 2017 and 2018 with "a similar offensive scheme." A.J. Brown's absence will absolutely leave a target vacuum that Barkley could step into. If so, that would be a major boon for his fantasy prospects in 2026.

Cardinals Not Planning Josh Sweat Trade?
JUNE 6: While the Cardinals gave Albert Breer of SI.com an emphatic “no” when he asked prior to this year’s draft if they would trade Sweat, Breer says he would not rule out a deal. Given Gannon’s presence in Green Bay, Breer believes the Packers remain a viable landing spot, particularly if Gannon does not […]

The Athletic's Mike DeFabo believes second-round WR Germie Bernard "has a good shot" to work his way into the rotation at receiver in 2026.
DeFabo calls Roman Wilson the WR3 "at this exact moment," which isn't exactly a qualifier that lends to us believing that Wilson will be there at the end of training camp after his first few lost seasons. Bernard "has a really high floor" per DeFabo's looks at OTAs and we wouldn't be surprised if he had a role in his first season. It's hard to see how it would be more than mildly fantasy interesting behind DK Metcalf and Michael Pittman, but perhaps Bernard can establish himself for a bigger 2027.

The Athletic's James Boyd believes the Colts "could consider" signing EDGE Joey Bosa.
The need is clearly there with second-round pick Jaylahn Tuimoloau, Micheal Clemons and Arden Key competing for the role next to Laiatu Latu at the moment. Boyd also mentions Cameron Jordan, Jadeveon Clowney and Leonard Floyd among others as possibilities. The veteran edge rusher and wideout markets are still unfolding ahead of training camp.

Bengals TE Erick All (knee) is practicing, but said he isn't "fully cleared yet."
All missed the end of the 2024 and the entire 2025 season with a pair of knee surgeries, one to clear out damage done from a surgery at Iowa, and another to repair a torn ACL. He enters the third year of his rookie contract as a deep, deep sleeper in fantasy leagues behind Mike Gesicki, but All did look pretty good in 2024 while healthy. He should at least give the Bengals some usable multi-TE set snaps if necessary.

Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte said he'll report to mandatory minicamp this week.
Boutte wouldn't seem to have a real role with the Patriots after they acquired A.J. Brown on June 1 -- one could argue the most surprising thing about that deal going down is the fact that Boutte wasn't involved in it. Boutte is reportedly available in a trade, and ESPN's Dan Graziano reported last week that the Patriots have received interest. It's in Boutte's financial best interests to show up.

The Athletic's Mike DeFabo believes Joey Porter Jr. will make "around $22 million to $27 million per year" on a new contract with the Steelers.
Pittsburgh has been handling in-house business over the last week, re-signing Darnell Washington and Nate Herbig to major extensions. It would not be surprising if Porter -- whom DeFabo classifies as a "hold in" in OTAs -- as next on the priority list.

Free agent CB L'Jarius Sneed visited with the Chiefs on Thursday.
Clearly there was no rush to add him to the roster. It's the first sniff of NFL interest we've seen for the former star cornerback since he was released by the Titans, and unsurprisingly it was with his former employers in Kansas City. We suspect this has a chance of happening at some point this offseason, but the 29-year-old Sneed is likely to sift through options ahead of training camp.

Nathan Peterman has retired after six seasons in the NFL.
Peterman only started five games, but managed an incredible 13 interceptions in 160 career attempts while becoming synonymous with horrific quarterback play. He appeared in games with the Bills, Raiders, and Bears from 2017-2023, and will reportedly become an agent for Range Sports.

Teams Remain Interested In Acquiring Raiders DE Maxx Crosby
While the Cowboys and Patriots were originally floated as teams that could re-enter the Maxx Crosby sweepstakes after the Ravens nixed the deal that would have brought the star pass rusher to Baltimore, more recent reporting has indicated Crosby will remain with the Raiders in 2026. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones (mostly) shut the door on […]

Lions hired former Dolphins GM Chris Grier as a personnel executive.
Grier was unceremoniously dumped in the middle of last season by the Dolphins after they started 2-7. Most general managers don't get a second chance, and Grier had a long run in Miami. If nothing else, this adds a little experience to Detroit's front office.
