Broncos learn 'Hard Knocks' fate after NFL announces 2025 team
After the NFL revised its rules for compulsory appearances on Hard Knocks, the Denver Broncos became eligible to be featured on this year's version of the popular NFL Films show on HBO.
The Broncos have not, however, been selected to appear on the show this summer.
Instead, the NFL announced Wednesday that the Buffalo Bills will be featured on the summer version of Hard Knocks, with camera crews following the Bills through training camp and preseason.
The league also debuted a new version of Hard Knocks last fall that follows an entire division during the season. After featuring the AFC North last year, the in-season edition of the show is set to follow the NFC East in 2025.
Eventually, the divisional rotation will land on the AFC West. So the Broncos are poised to be featured on some version of Hard Knocks within the next six years.
Hard Knocks is televised on HBO and available to stream on HBO Max.

Joe Burrow takes blame for 2024 Bengals failure despite NFL-leading stats
The post Joe Burrow takes blame for 2024 Bengals failure despite NFL-leading stats appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Cincinnati Bengals were one of the more disappointing teams in the NFL during the 2024 season. Cincinnati got off to a slow start and could not shape up in time to make the playoffs. One Bengals player is taking complete responsibility for the 2024 season, despite having some incredible statistics. Advertisement Bengals QB Joe Burrow opened up about the team's disastrous 2024 season at OTAs on Friday. Burrow claimed that he should have played better to get his team into the playoffs. 'If I had played even better, we wouldn't have been in that spot that we were in,' Burrow said. 'I just focus on getting better myself, and I feel like everyone in the locker room feels the same way. If I go out there and play better than I did last year, then it doesn't matter what goes on anywhere else.' It is admirable for a franchise quarterback to stick up for his team. However, it is clear that Burrow and the offense were not the problem for the majority of the season. Burrow had his best statistical season in the NFL during the 2024 season. He logged 4,918 yards with 43 touchdowns and only nine interceptions. He did this while completing 70.6% of his passes, which was even better than during Cincinnati's Super Bowl season in 2021. Advertisement Ja'Marr Chase even won the triple crown in 2024, leading the NFL in receptions, receiving yards, and receiving touchdowns. Either way, it is good to see Burrow motivated ahead of the 2025 season.

If you ask Bengals backup QB Jake Browning, there is one easy answer. Browning praised Burrow for his incredible ability to process information before and during a play in a recent interview. 'Process,' Browning said. 'The number of times he goes to the right person on time and accurately. He processes so quickly. Before and during the play. He has an above-average arm, but I wouldn't say it's crazy. He's an above-average athlete, but not crazy. He's really accurate. But the thing he does is process really fast. And to me, that's the toughest thing to evaluate in a quarterback coming out of college.' Advertisement The Bengals run one of the most unique offenses in the NFL because it takes advantage of Burrow's incredible ability to process. NFL fans will get a closer look at Burrow when season 2 of Netflix's 'Quarterback' documentary series airs later this summer.

Jaquan Brisker glad to be back practicing with Bears after recovering from concussion
The Bears held their second day of mandatory minicamp at Halas Hall on Tuesday, and Pro Bowler Jaylon Johnson was among the two excused absences. But the return to active duty of another defensive back, Jaquan Brisker, was a welcome sight. Brisker said it felt great to be back on the football field. The Bears safety missed the final 11 games last season because of a concussion. "It was hard, you know, being away from football — especially week to week. You know, it was kind of, you know, getting sad, depressing, things like that, Brisker said. "But you know, got over it. It's time to move on, and I'm back now." Getting over it was not easy for Brisker. He said because of the type of concussion he had, he basically had to retrain his nervous system — doing a lot of side-to-side movements and getting his eyes moving around. This was also his third diagnosed concussion in three seasons, but Brisker says there was no talk about retiring. No, not with no one — especially not myself, not with my parents," Brisker said. "I feel like if my parents, you know, say something, it's deep. So if it didn't come from them, or come from me, I didn't hear it, to be honest." Brisker said he was not worried about himself. "No, I'm not. I'm good. I'm past that point. I'm really moving on, so I'm just focused on playing ball," he said. "I'm really clear, man. I'm really good." Brisker said his teammates, especially Montez Sweat, helped him through the toughest times last season. He added that this is just another bump in the road, and now No. 9 is back and on the field to make plays.

Eagles Looking For New Ways To Address Edge Rusher Needs
Eagles Looking For New Ways To Address Edge Rusher Needs originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Few teams have lost more to a position group this offseason than the Philadelphia Eagles along their defensive line. Advertisement Stars like edge rushers Josh Sweat and Brandon Graham as well as defensive tackle Milton Williams have all moved on from the team after their dazzling appearance in Super Bowl LIX. Following the trade of Bryce Huff, the Eagles have a clear need along the edge of their defensive line. And while the organization has never been shy of thinking outside the box for solutions, they may have one specific plan in mind. When the Eagles picked linebacker Jihaad Campbell with the 31st pick in April's NFL Draft, the team seemed to open up to the possibility of a freak athlete like the Alabama star becoming an edge rusher. 'We've seen what [defensive coordinator Vic Fangio] can do with guys with this skill set,' GM Howie Roseman said. 'I don't want to put this player in that box [of stacked LB or edge rusher]. That's what I'm saying. This guy can grow into anything that you want. Advertisement 'You see it, what's going on in the league, and Zack Baun is a great example. These guys, they can rush from the edge, they can play in space. They can affect the quarterback from depth, from the edge, and that's what we're looking for.' If Campbell can become a similar player like Dallas Cowboys star Micah Parsons, it could change the very fabric of Philadelphia's defense. That's a big ask. But it's part of the plan. And if it works? It can keep the Eagles defense among the elite units in the league for a long time.
