▪ The problem: There’s very little evidence that Tagovailoa can stay healthy, or that he will have a lengthy NFL career because of the number of injuries — from concussions, to hip issues, to broken bones — he has had throughout his career. The 26-year-old has missed 15 of 80 regular-season and playoff games because of medical issues.

Well, this wasn't exactly the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback news fans were hoping for. The Steelers signed Miami Dolphins backup quarterback Skylar Thompson on Tuesday, just three days after their 2024 season came to an end with a 28–14 wild-card loss to the Baltimore Ravens.

Skylar Thompson’s contract with the Dolphins expired Monday and it didn’t take long for him to find a new home.

After a 5-12, last-place season that included 10 consecutive losses and the in-season firings of coach Matt Eberflus and offensive coordinator Shane Waldron, the Chicago Bears are now embarking on a search to hire the franchise’s next head coach.

The Packers finished 26th in pass rush win rate in 2024, making edge rusher a natural need. Scourton didn’t have as much of an impact at Texas A&M this year as anticipated after his transfer from Purdue, but he remains supremely talented.

Chicago has also interviewed interim coach Thomas Brown, former Carolina and Washington coach Ron Rivera, Detroit defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn, former Stanford coach David Shaw, Arizona Cardinals offensive coordinator Drew Petzing, Miami Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver and New York Giants offensive coordinator Mike Kafka.

That’s a position we will always focus on, and it will be a position that we will focus on this offseason,’ Miami Dolphins general manager Chris Grier said.

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin seemingly refuted a report about how the organization views quarterback Justin Fields in 2025.

Mike Tomlin and the Pittsburgh Steelers are one-and-done in the playoffs again. It's a tale as old as time for the iconic head coach and the Steelers have now lost their last five postseason games, with their last playoff win coming against the Miami Dolphins in January 2017.
