he Philadelphia Eagles have agreed to terms on a one-year contract with WR Alshon Jeffery.
Originally selected by the Chicago Bears in the second round (45th overall) of the 2012 NFL Draft, Jeffery (6-3, 218) has played in 63 career games over five NFL seasons, totaling 304 receptions for 4,549 yards (15.0 avg.) and 26 touchdowns.
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – For the second time in three years, the Giants have designated Jason Pierre-Paul as their franchise player. JPP was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent on March 9. By franchising Pierre-Paul, the Giants have until July 15 at 4 p.m. to reach a long-term contract agreement with him. If no […]
DeOssie is entering his 11th NFL season, all with the Giants. Quarterback Eli Manning, who is preparing for his 14th season, is the only current Giants player who has been with the team longer than DeOssie. They are the only players remaining from the Giants’ 2007 Super Bowl XLII championship team, and two of the five players left from the team that won Super Bowl XLVI (Jason Pierre-Paul, Mark Herzlich and Will Beatty, all of whom are free agents).
HOUSTON: The first thing players on both teams were asked after the New England Patriots erased a 25-point deficit midway through the third quarter and found a way to beat the Atlanta Falcons 34-28 in overtime of Super Bowl LI was…what happened? What switch went off in the minds of Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and […]
I would like to dedicate this column to creating a dream for an Eagles fan that is not far-fetched, based in reality, and can be a catalyst for Eagle in success in 2017.
In semi-recent history the league has proven that on average there are five new playoff teams each successive year…so…
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – The Giants today began their offseason roster restructuring by releasing two accomplished offensive players, wide receiver Victor Cruz and running back Rashad Jennings, their leading rusher in 2016. Both players began their NFL careers humbly, Cruz as an undrafted free agent, Jennings as the 250th overall selection in the 2009 NFL […]
Super Bowl 51 was arguably the great NFL title game every played.
The New England Patriots came back from a 28-3 deficit midway through the third quarter and rally for a 34-28 overtime win over the Atlanta Falcons. So many Super Bowl records set and broken. Here they are…
HOUSTON: There will be weaknesses on both the Atlanta Falcons and New England Patriots that each team will try to exploit.
One area each team considers a strength is their respective offensive lines.
The Patriots starting five have not played for any team other than the Patriots, which would give them an ideal level of continuity.
The Falcons have Alex Mack, who is listed by former NFL lineman Brian Baldinger as the “best center in the game.” Mack, who was drafted in the first round by the Cleveland Browns in 2009, was able to, on March 2, 2016, void his contract with the Browns, making him a free agent.
HOUSTON: Tom Brady talks to the media for the last time before he takes on the Atlanta Falcons in Super Bowl LI. Brady could be the first quarterback to lead his team to five Super Bowl titles.
It may not be fair, but NFL quarterbacks are judged by championships they’ve won. If he pulls this off, it will be tough to argue he isn’t the greatest quarterback of all time.
It was the Spring of 2013. Chip Kelly was the new coach of the Philadelphia Eagles and as a result the Eagles were the talk of the football universe.
At this time 32 teams had their undivided attention on the upcoming draft. What would Chip do? Skilled wideout, 3-4 outside linebacker/ pass rusher, or a dual threat quarterback to operate his warped speed no-huddle option offense?
The options for the fourth overall pick was as varied as the opinions…
