The ability has always been clear with offensive lineman Alijah Vera-Tucker. Availability, however, has been harder to come by. Since entering into the league in 2021, Vera-Tucker has suited up for just 43 of a possible 85 games. The missed time has largely stemmed from three separate season-ending injuries: two torn triceps to each arm […]
The Chicago Bears replaced Kevin Byard by signing former Seattle Seahawks safety Coby Bryant to a 3-year deal worth $40 million. Byard had an outstanding season for Chicago, earning All-Pro honors, and many expected him to return. Byard eventually would sign a 1-year, $9 million deal with the New England Patriots. So why did the […]
Colts have made a pair of depth signings already at defensive end, with Arden Key looking like a potential upgrade in pressure generation (11.2% Pressure Rate in 2025) from the Samson Ebukam (9.8%), Kwity Paye (9.6%), and Tyquan Lewis (8%) trio in 2025, and Micheal Clemons providing depth in run defense with his size, power, […]
The Celtics and the Thunder will both be shorthanded when they face off on Thursday night in Oklahoma City. For the Celtics, Jayson Tatum is out with right Achilles injury management.

After handily defeating the New England Patriots 29-13 in Super Bowl LX, the Seattle Seahawks entered the offseason with an unusually large number of restricted free agents. The most noteworthy of the RFAs was, without question, starting linebacker Drake Thomas, but the team also faced decisions on several key members of the special teams, including […]

The New England Patriots started free agency week by making a couple of fullback moves. Besides using the exclusive rights tender to retain Jack Westover, they also signed veteran Reggie Gilliam to a three-year contract worth $10.8 million. While those moves mean that the Patriots now have three fullbacks signed for 2026 — Gilliam, Westover […]
When the 2025 season began, the New England Patriots were coming off a 2024 season in which they had a 4-13 record (their second such record in a row), and ranked 30th in Defensive DVOA.

It’s pitching preview time, ladies and gentlemen. Over the next several days, I’ll be writing 10,000 words or so about everyone you might see pitching for the Red Sox to start the season.

That meant Team USA survived into the quarterfinals, and now manager Mark DeRosa no longer has to think about pesky details like whether his team has already clinched a spot in […]
All my homies hate Craig Breslow, but I don’t. I think he’s done a good job under constraints that seem to be slowly lifting as the years go by, as witnessed by the big-money signing of Ranger Suarez this winter, which woulda been unthinkable a few years ago. The team made the playoffs last year […]

Trade buzz tied Vincent Trocheck to the Boston Bruins leading up to the deadline, but the deal never got close to happening. The reason has now become clear that the New York Rangers simply asked for far too much. According to Kevin Paul Dupont of The Boston Globe , Rangers general manager Chris Drury placed a steep price on the veteran center, a cost that ultimately pushed Bruins GM Don Sweeney to walk away. Sullivan on how everything went down with Vincent Trocheck at the deadlin...

Boston has held a firm grasp on second place in […]
