Record-setting quarterback will be one of seven slated to appear on ESPN series
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.; March 2, 2016 – Penn State’s Christian Hackenberg (Palmyra, Va.) will be one of the seven quarterbacks participating in Jon Gruden’s QB Camp series on ESPN. Gruden’s QB Camp series, a signature element of ESPN’s annual pre-NFL Draft coverage, is returning for its seventh year this spring.
The Eagles announced today they have agreed to terms on a two-year contract with QB Sam Bradford.
The total value of the deal is $36 million, $26 million guaranteed. Reports say playoff bonuses could push the contract to $40 million.
The deal gives Bradford near elite money per year, while the Eagles must feel safe with just two seasons committed to a quarterback who has had significant injuries prior to coming to Philadelphia.
It appears both parties came away winners.
I just returned from a glorious fortnight of fun in the sun on the beautiful and pristine Nicoya Peninsula of Costa Rica.
Good afternoon. We finally got our coaching staff together – got a full roster of coaches now. Coach McAdoo and the coaches have hit the ground running and they’ve been working hard looking at free agents and obviously starting on the Draft. Our personnel department is working hard as well. Our scouts are here and our pro personnel guys are working hard on free agency back at Quest (Quest Diagnostics Training Center). I’ll open up for any questions.
Head coach Ben McAdoo today announced the composition of the Giants’ 2016 coaching staff.
McAdoo’s first staff will include 20 assistant coaches, including eight on offense, seven on defense, two on special teams, and three in strength & conditioning.
Twelve of the assistant coaches were on Tom Coughlin’s 2015 staff, including all three coordinators. Mike Sullivan will assume McAdoo’s former position as offensive coordinator after spending last season as the Giants’ quarterbacks coach. Steve Spagnuolo (defense) and Tom Quinn (special teams) will remain the coordinators of their respective units.

After helping his team win Super Bowl 50, one of the first things Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus said he wants to do this offseason is pay a visit to North Penn High School, where his career started about a decade ago. The Knights football program gave him the opportunity to hone his skills — physically and mentally – to arrive where he did on February 7, 2016…A World Champion. He also made the Temple football program stand tall on the sport’s biggest stage.
With their victory in Super Bowl 50, the Broncos are the ninth franchise to win as many as three Super Bowl championships. This was the eighth Super Bowl appearance for the Broncos, matching the record also shared by the Patriots, Steelers and Cowboys.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Under a cloudless sky, with temperatures hovering over 60 degrees, the Broncos walked onto the field at Levi Stadium on Saturday afternoon for a final brush-up before Super Bowl 50.
