Nick Saban shares humorous response to coaching return rumor
In a recent television appearance on Fox News' Fox and Friends, Saban was asked in an interview the question as to if he would ever return to the sidelines again.
Saban, in response, appeared to shut down speculation on a potential return, while also giving a humorous answer.
"I never really ever had a thought about getting back into coaching, until two days ago Mrs. Terry said I had to run the sweeper in the entire downstairs," Saban said. "While running the sweeper, the thought occurred to me," When you were coaching, you had a heck of a lot better job than this. That is only time I considered it."
"There is no opportunity that I know of right now, that would enhance me to go back to coaching." Saban also later added.
Saban, who announced his retirement back in Jan. 2024, was the head coach at Alabama for 17 seasons from 2007-23, winning six national championships during that span. As the head coach at Alabama, Saban also compiled a 206-29 overall record, recorded 16 10-win seasons, and won nine SEC championships.
Since announcing his retirement, Saban has remained around college football, most notably through his role on ESPN's weekly show "College GameDay."
As to if Saban would ever return, the answer certainly appears unlikely in the near future.

Alabama football 2025 season preview, predictions: Abduall Sanders Jr.
A new face to the program this fall, Abduall Sanders Jr. enters his first collegiate season with the Alabama Crimson Tide in 2025. Part of Alabama's 2025 recruiting class, Sanders is yet another name on the Crimson Tide's roster out of national powerhouse Mater Dei High School in California, the same program that has produced other defensive standouts such as Domani Jackson and Zabien Brown. As for Sanders in particular however, the talented freshman's role in 2025 is likely an unknown, as the linebacker has multiple names sitting ahead of him on the depth chart. Even despite this, could Sanders still make an impact this season? Here is everything you need to know about Alabama inside linebacker Abduall Sanders Jr. entering the season. Abduall Sanders Jr. player information Abduall Sanders Jr. career stats Sanders is currently entering his first season of college football. The linebacker has yet to compile any collegiate stats. Abduall Sanders Jr. 2024 stats Last season, Sanders was a senior at the prep level where he attended Mater Dei High School in California. Across 13 games, Sanders compiled 50 tackles, six TFL, three sacks, and two interceptions. Abduall Sanders Jr. recruiting ranking Per the 247Sports Composite rankings, Sanders was considered as the nation's No. 312 overall player in the 2025 recruiting class, as well as the No. 33 linebacker nationally. A four-star prospect, Sanders also committed to the Crimson Tide in March 2024, and was considered the No. 27 player in the state of California where he attended Mater Dei High School. Abduall Sanders Jr. 2025 season outlook It is likely an unknown as to how much time Sanders could see defensively this season. As to why, that is because Alabama has three names cemented at the top of the depth chart at inside linebacker in Deontae Lawson, Justin Jefferson, and Nikhai Hill-Green, along with a few others, including Sanders, behind that trio. Because of this, playing time could be hard to come by for Sanders this fall, but the freshman could still be a special teams option, in addition to a reserve inside linebacker. Overall, expect Sanders to see some action this season, but for the true freshman to likely be a depth option.

Fantasy football rankings: Bijan Robinson, Ja'Marr Chase lead the top 100
The Big Board takes into consideration past returns, current situation/performance and expected future gains in determining who should be included among the Top 100 fantasy football players. Essentially, the Big Board is a cheat sheet designed for a GM who is planning to participate in a draft today. Half-point PPR scoring for a 1QB league format is used as the baseline for the Big Board. * Player notes provided for the Top 50 players At age 23, he's the perfect vintage NFL RB — a do-it-all back, who was No. 1 in Touch% inside the 10-yard line, No. 2 in touches, No. 4 in RB targets, No. 5 in EPA per rush. A chain-moving target hog, Chase led the NFL in targets, first downs and catches of 10+ yards in 2024. Among WRs, only Odell Beckham Jr. and Justin Jefferson have scored more PPR points through the first 62 games of an NFL career than Chase. He gives away a few more touches than Robinson does in ATL, but he checks all the same boxes as a young (age 23), elite, dual-threat RB — 8 TDs of 10+ yards, 11 TDs inside the 5-yard line, 9.9 yards/rec (second-most among RBs with 30+ receptions). His offense is a Rolls Royce, and he's earned this spot (if not higher) after an epic 2024 campaign. But beware history hasn't been kind to RBs the season following a 400-carry campaign (inc. playoffs), and he's unlikely to again offset losing goal-line carries by scoring another 9 rushing TDs of 10+ yards. (That would be unprecedented.) Despite seven DNPs in 2023, Jefferson still ranks No.1 in receiving yards and PPR PTS in NFL history among WRs through the first five seasons of a career. He's also No. 3 in receptions. Jefferson's 28 catches of 20+ yards in 2024 was seven more than the second-place finisher (Darnell Mooney, 21). The past four RBs to be drafted with a top-six pick (Saquon Barkley, Leonard Fournette, Ezekiel Elliott, Trent Richardson) have finished no worse than eighth in PPR PPG in their rookie season, with Barkley (RB1) and Elliott finishing in the top 3. Jeanty has a clear runway to finish among the top five RBs in carries and targets. One of 14 RBs in NFL history to average 17.3 PPR PPG in each of their first two seasons (min. 10 games each season) — Achane won the RB receiving triple crown: most catches (78, 10 more than any other RB), receiving yards (592) and TD receptions (6). He led NFL in target share (30.7%) and averaged 7.3 catches per game as a rookie, and the NYG QB ceiling has been raised for his second year in the league. Lamb was the fantasy WR1 in 2023, and was top-5 in FPPG at WR from Weeks 1-9 while Dak Prescott was healthy. At just 26 years old, with Dak back and George Pickens in tow to help keeps defenses honest, Lamb should be back among the cream of the WR crop. He's one of three players in NFL history with 115 catches, 1,250 receiving yards and 10 receiving touchdowns in back-to-back seasons. He's also one of three with 400+ catches in his first four NFL seasons, and St. Brown leads the NFL in first-down receptions over the past three seasons. There are no tush push concerns in Baltimore, as Henry easily led the NFL in Touch% inside the 2-yard line (80%) — he posted the fourth-most PPR points in NFL history by a RB in his 30s. Like a shot of Wild Turkey 101 and a beer chaser, CMC is perhaps best taken at the turn, where you can immediately follow the pick with something to soothe the "burn" of selecting a 29-year-old who has played seven games or less in three of the past five seasons. That said, he was a league winner in those other campaigns. Do you feel lucky? PFF's highest graded WR of 2024, Nacua has the second-most catches (184, behind only Odell Beckham's 191) through a player's first 28 NFL regular-season games. (He had 7+ catches in 14 of those contests). TD upside is the issue, as he is outside the top 50 in target share inside the 10-yard line for the past two years, and new teammate Davante Adams is first in that span. He's tops on the "My Guys" list for 2025. London easily led WRs in target share inside the 5- and 10-yard lines, was third in overall target share and was an all caps ALPHA in three games with QB Michael Penix (led the NFL with 352 receiving yards and was fourth with 22 receptions from Weeks 16-18). Thomas was top-8 in target share (top-6 in target share inside the 5-yard line) and averaged 22.9 PPR PPG over his final six games of 2024. Only Ja'Marr Chase was better at WR in that span. Among the elite talents at WR, Collins has some fantasy headwinds to overcome in terms of target share (outisde the top 30 at WR the past two years) and red zone targets (outside the top 25 over the past two years combined). Only Jahmyr Gibbs posted more fantasy points at RB over the final three weeks of 2024 than Taylor, who averaged 21.6 carries per game, but the rub is a three-year average of 5.3 DNPs and 21.2 receptions. His 9 TDs from inside the 2-yard line led all RBs, and he closed 2024 season with a TD in nine straight games (inc. playoffs). But as the only RB to have at least 260 touches in each of the past six seasons, mileage concerns have to be in the back of your mind. Williams was the top bell cow of 2024, as he led RBs in Touch% (78.8%). He's topped 13 PPR PTS 22 times (in 28 total games) over the past two seasons, trailing only Derrick Henry (25) and Bijan Robinson (23) among RBs. Brown has netted a PPR PPG mark of 16.5 or better each of the past three seasons -- Justin Jefferson, CeeDee Lamb and Amon-Ra St. Brown are the only WRs who have matched that. He was the No. 8 WR in PPR PPG in Weeks 8-18, outpacing fellow standout rookies Brian Thomas and Malik Nabers in that 10-game span. McConkey flashed chain-mover talents with the fifth-most catches of 10+ yards (49). He gets a significant QB upgrade in Year 2 (Geno Smith) after setting rookie TE records for targets (153), receptions (112) and receiving yards (1,194) despite catching passes from a Minshew/O'Connell/Ridder QB trifecta (or, if you will, "tri-inefecta"). His 5.4 YPC is the third-highest mark among rookie RBs (min. 200 carries) in NFL history, and he had fourth-lowest percentage of carries of zero or negative yards (14%). He's earned a 300-touch leading role, but can he hold up to it? Jackson finished as the No. 1 fantasy QB for the second time in his career, and it followed a top-4 finish in 2023. Among QBs, he ranks first in rushing yards (1,736), third in passing TDs (65) and fourth in rushing TDs (9) over the past two seasons. Once Cincy finally leaned into him as their bell cow, Chase was RB6 in those 13 games from Weeks 4-17 — the 18.3 PPR PPG mark during that span would have placed him top-5 among RBs for full 2024 season. McBride led all TEs in target share and was fourth overall behind WRs Nabers, Jefferson and London. His three 12-catch games in 2024 set a TE single-season NFL record, and he was the only player at any position in 2024 with more than one such game. Only a season removed from being the No. 2 fantasy WR, and despite playing with a wrist injury all season (surgically repaired in February), he still put up mid-level WR2 production in games Tua Tagovailoa started. Allen become Mr. Reliable with just one DNP over the past six seasons and averages of 31 passing TDs, 4,060 passing yards and 9.5 rushing TDs in that span. He finished in the QB top-3 in each of the past five season seasons. Buffalo's desire to keep QB Allen out of harm's way resulted in a TD spike for Cook (18, double his first two seasons combined) as he handled 13 carries inside the 5-yard line (the most by a RB in the Allen Era). He has averaged 4.9 YPC and 9.1 YPR over his first three NFL seasons. The past four NFL RBs to average at least those thresholds through the first three seasons (min. 300 carries, 45 receptions) were Jamaal Charles, Adrian Peterson, Larry Johnson and Barry Sanders. In his 10 games played from Weeks 4-17, only teammate Ja'Marr Chase averaged more PPR PPG than Higgins' 20.6 mark. Only 26 years old, he's one of just 16 WRs in NFL history to average at least 11.4 PPR PPG (min. 12 games per season) in each of first five NFL campaigns. Slot machine (NFL leader in slot snaps) enjoyed a 2024 breakout, posting the sixth-best PPR PTS at WR from Weeks 2-16. He reached 100 catches for the first time and had a Rec% of 75.2, third-best among WRs with 100+ targets. Daniels had the second-most fantasy points by a rookie QB (behind 2011 Cam Newton). His 891 rushing yards were the most by a rookie QB in NFL history. The secret sauce was staying on the field (NFL-high 66 plays per game), thanks to the sixth-highest Comp% and league-high 73 scrambles. He finished as TE1 for first time in 2024 and is again likely to be heavily leaned on with Deebo Samuel gone and Brandon Aiyuk recovering (ACL/MCL). His fantasy finishes at TE in PPR PPG for the past seven seasons looks like this: 1, 6, 2, 3, 3, 2, 3. Strong TD (8) and reception (46) tallies helped keep his name in the RB1 mix, but his efficiency was down and he missed six games. There's optimism for a rebound in his rushing metrics, though, as new OC Klint Kubiak has been talking up Walker's fit as Seattle moves to a run-heavy outside zone blocking scheme. He has 13 DNPS over the past four seasons and is in his age-30 season, but he finished fifth in PPR PPG at RB in 2024 and is clearly positioned to once again be the focal point of the NOLA offense. Despite persistent injury and team environment headwinds, Hall has managed to average more than 16 PPR PPG through his first three seasons. His next battle might be a backfield timeshare with Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis. Coming off his first top-10 finish among WRs in PPR PTS, Wilson joins elite company (Ja'Marr Chase, Justin Jefferson, Michael Thomas, Odell Beckham Jr.) as one of just five WRs in NFL history with 80+ catches, 1,000+ receiving yards in each of first three NFL seasons. There's plenty left in the tank as he proved after acclimating to the Jets after a midseason trade (WR4 over the final 10 weeks). Adams leads the NFL in target share inside the 10-yard line over the past two seasons. A contract dispute threatens to dampen spirits for McLaurin, who is coming off his first WR top-10 fantasy finish (No. 7 in PPR PTS), which included leading the league in contested catches (24) and receptions of 50+ yards (5), plus four games with 2 TDs. Hampton joined Ashton Jeanty as only RBs picked in Round 1 of the 2025 NFL Draft. Opportunities should be plentiful with an LAC team that ranked top-10 in percentage of rush plays and dealing with uncertainty around an eye injury to vet FA signing Najee Harris. Conner posted a career-high in games played (16) and total yards (1,508) and was a metrics darling, be they advanced or otherwise. He's averaged at least 15.4 PPR PPG in each of the past four seasons, something that only Joe Mixon can match at the RB position. The "tush push/brotherly shove" stay of execution keeps Hurts' elite fantasy QB status intact. He has 35 rush TDs in past four seasons, nine more than second place (Josh Jacobs, 23), and his three seasons with 13+ rush TDs is sixth-most in NFL history. He has 1,000+ receiving yards in each of his 11 NFL seasons, second-most to Jerry Rice (14), and only Rice (13), Randy Moss (9) and Terrell Owens (9) have more seasons of 1,000+ receiving yards and 8+ TDs than Evans (8). Burrow was second in Comp% above expected in 2024 and had 71 pass attempts inside the 10-yard line in 2024, 22 more than second-place Patrick Mahomes. When healthy, he's a bankable top-5 fantasy QB, with averages in the three seasons he's played 16+ games of 4,668 passing yards, 37 passing TDs, 3 rushing TDs. Metcalf was just WR31 in half-PPR PPG in 2024, but was among the top 23 in three of the previous four seasons, and Aaron Rodgers sustained two WRs (Garrett Wilson and Davante Adams) at that level for NYJ last season. Sutton finished top-15 in PPR PTS at WR for first time in his career. He's thrived in the red zone under Sean Payton, as only Mark Andrews (17) has more TD grabs than Sutton (14) from inside the 20 during the past two seasons. In the past six seasons, Moore has finished between WR6 to WR25 in PPR PTS despite never playing for a team that ranked above average in points or yards. New HC Ben Johnson offers his best hope yet in terms of offensive upside. Hubbard was RB9 in a 14-game span from Weeks 2-16 and should maintain lead role, but you have to wonder if Rico Dowdle or rookie Trevor Etienne will take some third-down work. Hubbard averaged an NFL-low 4.0 yards per catch and 5.7 yards after catch (second-lowest at RB). He was a disappointing WR30 in his rookie season and was 77th among WRs (min. 50 targets) in Catch% and 64th in Contested Catch%, and 42nd in Catch% on passes of 20+ yards (min. 10 targets). Drafting him as a WR2 means buying into the talk of changes in physique (added 10 pounds of muscle), confidence and how he'll be used on the field. Worthy stepped up as a go-to option in the KC passing game in the second half of his rookie campaign — just 20 catches through his first nine games, but 58 receptions in his final 10 contests (inc. postseason). He also flashed versatility with a WR-high three rushing TDs. With a likely lengthy Rashee Rice suspension, Worthy should see plenty of time in KC's offensive spotlight this season.

Dane Brugler's 2026 NFL Draft summer positional rankings: Linebackers
Editor's note: This is the fifth installment of Dane Brugler's 2026 Summer Scouting series. Previous rankings: Edge rushers | Running backs | Defensive tackles | Tight ends If we are forecasting the deepest positions for the 2026 NFL Draft, linebacker has to be in the conversation. There are a few first-round hopefuls at the top of the list, led by Georgia's CJ Allen. But the quality should extend into Days 2 and 3 with promising linebacker talent. (Note: Asterisk represents draft-eligible underclassmen. Heights and weights are what NFL teams have on file for each player, with a 'v' representing verified measurements and 'e' for estimated measurements.) Advertisement Between his range, instincts and the fact that he dons Georgia's No. 3 jersey, Allen brings back immediate flashbacks of Roquan Smith patrolling the middle of the defense in Athens. Allen is quick to key, read and flow and shows the range to make plays outside the numbers. Although he isn't the longest player, he can defeat blocks with quickness or force. Allen also hits like a ton of bricks without sacrificing his balance at contact, which makes him a reliable tackler. On the play below, Notre Dame running back Jermayne Love has a few steps of momentum but Allen's stopping power plants him in the hole. Allen trusts his eyes in coverage and looks comfortable turning and shadowing routes, so I wouldn't call him a liability by any means. But he can do a better job recognizing routes and getting his head turned to influence the catch point. Texas found some success throwing behind him in last year's regular-season matchup. Allen broke into the Bulldogs' starting lineup as a true freshman after Jamon Dumas-Johnson was injured, and he never gave the job back. His tape last season showed an every-down backer with natural diagnose skills and the ability to cover ground quickly. And he doesn't miss tackles — he strikes with accurate angles and the play strength to put ball carriers on the ground. If Allen continues to ascend in his second year as a starter, he will lay claim to LB1 in this draft class. Styles is built differently. He immediately passes the eye test with his tall, well-defined frame and long arms (the strength staff at Ohio State raves about him), and he moves like an athlete who is 30 pounds lighter. With his speed, fluidity and reflexes, Styles has outstanding range to open and react to what he sees. Between his first season as a starter and last year, Styles took a big step reading his keys and understanding field leverage. But he still needs to improve his tackling mechanics to be a better finisher. Though his long arms help him wrap, Styles leaves too much production on the field. Styles checks a lot of boxes that will be scouting catnip for NFL teams. A former five-star recruit, he is a 20-year-old senior with rare physical traits and the son of a former Super Bowl champion linebacker. On top of his freaky tools, he was voted an 'Iron Buckeye' this spring for his training and discipline, and one member of Ohio State's staff told me Styles is 'one of the best leaders in the program.' Advertisement Styles isn't quite the speed demon that Isaiah Simmons was coming out of Clemson, but there are certainly similarities between the two as former safeties and rare size-speed athletes. Simmons has struggled to become a consistent NFL starter, but he was a top-10 draft pick because the NFL will always bet on athletic traits. Styles has a chance to be a first-round pick for the same reasons. Once he sees it and gets going, Hill is a dogged chaser in pursuit — which was unsurprising to see on tape considering he led the Longhorns last season in tackles (113), tackles for loss (16.5) and forced fumbles (four). He does some of his best work as a blitzer, when there is less reading and more attacking, which allows him to unlock and chase. Hill is highly disruptive on the Oklahoma tape, especially as a pass rusher, because he is able to avoid blocks and track down the ball carrier. Hill can be quick to fill versus the run, but he tends to be too reactionary with his reads. And when his diagnose skills aren't on time, he finds himself stuck in the muck or flowing the wrong direction based on the mesh read. NFL scouts are hoping to see a jump this season in his anticipation (downhill and in coverage) and ability to punch off blocks. Hill arrived in Austin as a five-star recruit with a ton of fanfare, which he lived up to as a Freshman All-American in 2023 and second team All-American in 2024. Because of his resume and production, NFL hype has followed. NFL scouts don't currently view Hill as a slam-dunk first-round pick — as one scout put it to me: 'His traits are good, but I can't call any of those traits 'outstanding.'' But Hill is an easy player to like because of his size, speed and hunting skills. Advertisement Weeks is a classic run-and-hit linebacker, at his best when kept clean. He trusts what he sees, mirrors well laterally and closes in a flash to explode through his target. Weeks also has dynamic blitzing talent, and his athleticism shows when he drops into coverage. With a slightly undersized frame, Weeks can get lost in the trash at times when blockers impede his path. He can dip around blocks and isn't shy using his hands, but his pursuit speed with clean sight lines is what separates him from other linebackers. Last season, as a sophomore, Weeks moved into a starting role and immediately put himself on the NFL radar with his play speed and clean-up talent. He finished the 2024 season with a team-best 125 tackles plus double-digit tackles for loss and three forced turnovers (two fumbles, one interception). Weeks suffered a gruesome dislocated ankle and broken tibia in the bowl game and underwent offseason surgery. However, he is expected to be full-go by the end of summer — and the Tigers need his energy on defense. Aside from his talent, Weeks has the type of football character that will endear him to NFL coaches (Brian Kelly: 'Whit is our driver. … He's got incredible passion. It rubs off on our entire defense.'). Perkins gets where he is going in a hurry, regardless of alignment. He is a twitched-up athlete with the burst to win immediately or the speed to track down plays. He is fluid in everything he does, which helps him be effective as a rusher, dropper or chaser. This is the first play on the South Carolina tape and sums up Perkins' game: Despite the eye candy in the backfield, Perkins reads the tight end screen off play action and showcases burst to close for what should have been a tackle for loss. (He needs to become a better tackle-finisher on plays like this.) Over the last two seasons, Perkins evenly split his snaps between the edge, off-ball linebacker and a nickel role in the slot. You could argue that his best highlights have come while rushing off the edge, but he can't play there full-time at this size. Advertisement Does he have the take-on and diagnose skills to be a full-time off-ball player? Can he survive in a slot role at the next level? Or does he need a true hybrid position to maximize his skill set? The answers to those questions will be very different from coach to coach and scheme to scheme. As early as his true freshman season in Baton Rouge, Perkins put his name on the NFL radar — his level of athleticism sets him apart from the rest. Most expected him to leave after his junior season and be part of the 2025 NFL Draft, but a torn ACL last September changed those plans and NFL scouts are eager to see him back on the field. Despite Perkins' special athleticism, I don't think the phrase 'draft him and figure out where to play him later' applies here. Coaches need a specific deployment plan to understand how (or if) he fits the scheme, because he will be viewed as versatile by some but as more of a tweener by others. 1. Styles 2.
