  Panthers | Jonathon Brooks' return up in the air    Tue Feb 25, 01:26 PM

Carolina Panthers RB Jonathon Brooks (knee) remains without a timeline as he rehabs and recovers from the second anterior cruciate ligament tear he has suffered in as many years, according to general manager Dan Morgan.

Footballguys view: Brooks is likely to miss most if not all the 2025 season. He waited to come back from initial knee injury suffered in college, then Brooks re-injured the same knee when he did start playing. It's likely the Panthers will be in the market for a change-of-pace back to work behind starter Chuba Hubbard.

  Cowboys | Rico Dowdle could return to DAL    Tue Feb 25, 08:24 AM

Dallas Cowboys impending free-agent RB Rico Dowdle is a player the Cowboys are interested in re-signing this offseason, according to chief operating officer Stephen Jones.

Footballguys view: Undrafted out of South Carolina in 2020, Dowdle patiently waited for his opportunity with the Cowboys. He made the most of that in a contract year, and Dowdle rushed for over 1,000 yards in 2024. His 39 catches were a career high as well. With a great running back class in the 2025 NFL Draft, free agent running backs may not have as much interest as they want. Perhaps staying with the Cowboys on a team-friendly deal could be in Dowdle's future. Stay tuned.

  NFL | Ashton Jeanty waiting for Pro Day    Mon Feb 24, 12:31 PM

Boise State RB Ashton Jeanty will only participate in medical evaluations and team interviews at the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine, according to his agent. He'll wait until Boise State's Pro Day to do on-field drills.

Footballguys view: Jeanty is seen as the clear-cut best back in this draft class. He draws comparisons to Eagles RB Saquon Barkley, although has a bit of a different body type. Jeanty may be a top-5 pick in this draft when it comes to talent and potential impact, but with such a deep running back class there's a chance he falls past no.10 in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft.

  Bears | D'Andre Swift likely to return for 2025    Mon Feb 24, 11:18 AM

Chicago Bears RB D'Andre Swift is expected to be on the team's roster in 2025, despite an underwhelming 2024 campaign statistically, according to ESPN.com's Dan Graziano. He is slated to make $8 million during the upcoming season, of which $6.11 million is fully guaranteed.

Footballguys view: Swift did not produce in the expected way last season, but the team has a contract situation that keeps him around for another year. We'll see if the Bears add another running back to the mix in the draft, as this is an incredibly deep class at the position.

  Ravens | Derrick Henry could receive extension    Mon Feb 10, 12:40 AM

Baltimore Ravens RB Derrick Henry is expected to talk with the Ravens about a contract extension this offseason, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.

Footballguys view: Henry is coming off a phenomenal first season in Baltimore, having compiled 1,921 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns on a career-high 5.9 yards per carry across 17 regular-season games. He added 193 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 19 catches. He became the first player in NFL history with multiple seasons of 1,900-plus rush yards. After Baltimore was eliminated from the postseason, GM Eric DeCosta and head coach John Harbaugh suggested an extension was possible. With or without an extension, Henry will be in the RB1 conversation when draft season rolls around.

  Eagles | Saquon Barkley sets overall rushing record    Mon Feb 10, 12:39 AM

Philadelphia Eagles RB Saquon Barkley rushed 25 times for 57 yards in Super Bowl LIX to set the NFL season rushing record, postseason included, surpassing the mark of 2,476 yards set by Terrell Davis.

Footballguys view: Heading into the matchup, Barkley, named the AP NFL Offensive Player of the Year on Thursday, needed only 30 yards to move past Davis' 1998 mark. He did so on the final play of the first half with a 2-yard run. Barkley's 2,447 yards were second all-time in a single season heading into the game, having surpassed Davis' 1997 showing of 2,331 yards in last month's NFC Championship Game win over the Washington Commanders. He became the first player in NFL history to record over 2,500 rushing yards in a season, including the playoffs. Expect Barkley to be in the 1.01 conversation as we head into the 2025 draft season.

  Chiefs | Kansas City denied history    Mon Feb 10, 12:39 AM

Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes completed 21 of his 32 passes for 257 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions in a 40-22 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX. He was also sacked six times and lost a fumble. RB Kareem Hunt and RB Isiah Pacheco combined for 16 rushing yards on six carries, and WR Xavier Worthy finished with eight receptions for 157 yards and two touchdowns. TE Travis Kelce had four receptions for 39 yards, and WR DeAndre Hopkins had two grabs for 18 yards and a score. LB Drue Tranquill had a game-high 11 tackles and a sack.

Footballguys view: The Chiefs' quest for Super Bowl history never got off the ground. Philadelphia's swarming defense held Mahomes and the two-time defending champions to just 23 yards in the first half, and the Eagles led by 24 points at halftime before rolling on to the victory that kept the Chiefs from becoming the first team to win three straight Super Bowl titles and delivered the second in Eagles history.

  Eagles | Philly cruises to Super Bowl title    Mon Feb 10, 12:39 AM

Philadelphia Eagles QB Jalen Hurts completed 17 of his 22 passes 221 yards, two touchdowns and an interception and ran 11 times for 72 yards and a score in a 40-22 win over the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. RB Saquon Barkley rushed 25 times for 57 yards and caught six passes for 40 yards. WR DeVonta Smith had four catches for 69 yards and a touchdown, and WR A.J. Brown added three grabs for 43 yards and a score. CB Cooper DeJean returned an interception for a touchdown, and DE Josh Sweat had 2.5 of Phildelphia's six sacks.

Footballguys view: While Hurts, whose cell phone screen saver for the past two years has been a photo of him walking off the Super Bowl LVII field in Arizona surrounded by yellow and red confetti after losing to the Chiefs, was absolutely stellar en route to earning Super Bowl MVP honors, the defense shouldn't be overlooked. The Eagles forced three turnovers and held Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City offense to 275 yards. "This is the ultimate team game. You can't be great without the greatness of others. Great performance by everybody -- offense, defense, special teams," head coach Nick Sirianni said while holding up the Lombardi Trophy. "We didn't really ever care what anyone thought about how we won, or their opinions. All we want to do is win."

  Lions | Jahmyr Gibbs showed off explosiveness    Sat Feb 8, 01:19 PM

Detroit Lions RB Jahmyr Gibbs averaged 6.4 yards per touch in 2024, the most yards by any player with at least 300 touches in a season since Marshall Faulk in 2000.

Footballguys view: Gibbs has a lot of Faulk to his game. He moves quickly and smoothly, and Gibbs can gash a team with explosiveness as a runner or receiver. Gibbs is a player who can work in tight spaces, and he wastes little motion. He's clearly a fantasy favorite and one of the players who makes watching football fun.

  Packers | Josh Jacobs says GB needs No. 1 receiver    Sat Feb 8, 01:19 PM

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs said he believes the team needs to add a proven No. 1 wide receiver this offseason.

Footballguys view: Some want to make this statement more than it is; a mere statement of truth...and the truth isn't meant to make you feel good. The Packers don't have a true no.1 receiver and instead have spread the ball around in their passing game. How's that working out? Getting a stud, clear-cut no.1 receiver that QB Jordan Love could lean on could change the dynamics of this offense. Jacobs was not being disrespectful to any of his teammates, he was merely stating fact.

  Browns | Nick Chubb hoping to return    Sat Feb 8, 01:19 PM

Cleveland Browns impending free-agent RB Nick Chubb said he hasn't had any contract discussions but hopes to re-sign with the Browns.

Footballguys view: Chubb is one of the most naturally gifted runners in the league. Injuries have caught up to him, and that's why he's only played in 10 games over the last two seasons. While it's unlikely Chubb will be the back he was in 2022 (over 1,700 all-purpose yards), he can still be considered a strong part of a rotation. What's the price for that, and do the Browns want to pay it? These are questions to be answered with free agency about a month away.

  Eagles | Philadelphia's injury report for Super Bowl LIX    Fri Feb 7, 03:58 PM

Philadelphia Eagles WR Britain Covey (neck) practiced in full all week but has been ruled out for Super Bowl LIX against the Kansas City Chiefs. OL Nick Gates (groin) was limited in practice for a second straight day on Friday, Feb. 7, and is listed as questionable. DE Brandon Graham (elbow) and TE C.J. Uzomah (abdomen) practiced in full on Friday but are also listed as questionable. WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) was limited in practice all week but no longer appears on the injury report. LB Zack Baun (groin), DT Jalen Carter (illness), OG Landon Dickerson (knee), RB Kenneth Gainwell (concussion, knee), TE Dallas Goedert (ankle) and C Cameron Jurgens (back) practiced in full on Friday and have also been removed from the injury report.

Footballguys view: Graham was a hero in the Eagles last Super Bowl victory seven years ago against the Patriots, but it's not clear how big of a role he will be able to play on Sunday. Jalen Hurts knee injury from the divisional round will be a non-issue in the Super Bowl.

  Eagles | Saquon Barkley takes top honors    Fri Feb 7, 03:12 PM

Philadelphia Eagles RB Saquon Barkley was named The Associated Press' Offensive Player of the Year Thursday, Feb. 6.

Footballguys view: Let's call this the "best offensive player that isn't a quarterback" award. Barkley's true potential was reached in a diverse running game that leveraged the best offensive line in the league into one of the best single season performances by a running back in NFL history. If the Eagles can win Super Bowl LIX, he'll surely be a big reason why.

  Colts | Jonathan Taylor able to find room in 2024    Fri Feb 7, 02:58 PM

Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor ranked third in the NFL with 859 rushing yards before contact during the 2024 season.

Footballguys view: Taylor had some ankle issues during the season, but resumed the dominant form that had him in contention to be the #1 overall pick in fantasy drafts in 2022 by the end of the season. Despite that development, he may go lower next season than the late first/early second round ADP he carried into 2024 fantasy drafts.

  Steelers | Najee Harris could remain in Pittsburgh    Fri Feb 7, 01:14 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers impending free-agent RB Najee Harris did not have his fifth-year team option picked up by the team last offseason, but Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette believes there is 'a strong possibility' that he could be signed to a new contract before the start of free agency on March 12.

Footballguys view: Dulac, a long time Steelers beat writer, said there is also a "strong possibility" that the team is going to bring back Najee Harris on a two or three-year deal at between $7-$10 million a season, so the could run back their 2024 backfield even though it is a very strong class at the position in the draft. Last offseason, the team turned down the chance to have Harris under contract for this season for about $6.7 million, so if they do sign him at the terms Dulac laid out, it would be admission that was a mistake even though he might have a lower cap number for 2025 than he would have had under the fifth year option.

  Steelers | Jaylen Warren expected to be tendered    Fri Feb 7, 12:29 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren is expected to receive a tender offer as a restricted free agent, according to sources Friday, Feb. 4.

Footballguys view: This is an easy call for the Steelers, the only question is whether they use the right of first refusal tender at around $3.2 million, which would give them no compensation if another team signs Warren to offer sheet that they refuse to match, or go up to about $5.2 million to be able to recoup a second round pick if another team signs Warren to an offer sheet, which would effectively lock him up, since that's steep price to pay to steal Warren away, especially in a running back rich draft year.

Uzomah (abdomen) fully participated in practice.

Footballguys view: Smith's status is something to monitor on Friday. He's a speed receiver, one of the best in the league, so a hamstring injury can slow him down a bit. Let's see if he's limited again or a full participant in the final injury report before the Super Bowl.

  Eagles | Philly's Wednesday practice report    Wed Jan 29, 04:19 PM

Philadelphia Eagles RB Saquon Barkley (non-injury), WT A.J. Brown (non-injury), OG Landon Dickerson (knee), RB Kenneth Gainwell (concussion, knee), TE Dallas Goedert (ankle), C Cameron Jurgens (back), DT Moro Ojomo (shoulder), WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and OT Brett Toth (knee) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Jan. 29. WR Britain Covey (neck) was limited during practice. The Eagles did not hold a practice Wednesday, so the practice report is an estimation.

Footballguys view: The Eagles have a lot of time before they have to be ready to play the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX, so this bye-week injury report isn't determinative. That said, Smith's injury bears watching. As Profootballtalk.com notes, Smith was not listed on Philadelphia's report last week. He was on the field for 83 percent of the Eagles' offensive snaps in the NFC Championship Game and caught all four targets for 45 yards. Gainwell, who has to work through the concussion protocol, also bears watching. Goedert, Dickerson, and Jurgens also bear watching. Running back Saquon Barkley and receiver A.J. Brown should be non-issues, but we'll follow up as needed.

  Chiefs | Wednesday practice report for Chiefs    Wed Jan 29, 04:18 PM

Kansas City Chiefs S Bryan Cook (quadriceps), RB Kareem Hunt (quadriceps), QB Patrick Mahomes (ankle), OT Jawaan Taylor (knee) and CB Jaylen Watson (ankle) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Jan. 29. The Chiefs did not hold a practice Wednesday, so the practice report is an estimation.

Footballguys view: Mahomes remains on the report with his lingering ankle injury. The Chiefs have had him on the report every week since Week 16 after he sprained his right ankle against the Browns in a Dec. 15 game. He has remained a full participant since the start of the postseason. Mahomes is 34-of-51 for 422 yards and two touchdowns in two postseason games. He also has run for 57 yards and two touchdowns. That Hunt would have practiced fully had there been an actual session is also a positive. We'll follow up as needed but expect every player with a pulse to be available for next week's Super Bowl LIX against the Eagles.
