Former Broncos assistant coach Rick Dennison lands with Seahawks
Rick Dennison's back in the NFL, this time with the Seattle Seahawks.
The Seahawks have hired Dennison as a run game coordinator and senior offensive advisor. Seattle also officially announced the hire of ex-Denver Broncos offensive coordinator Justin Outten as a run game specialist and assistant offensive line coach.
Dennison, 66, has an extensive history with the Broncos. He played linebacker for the team from 1982-1990. After hanging up his cleats, Dennison returned to the team in 1995 as an offensive assistant.
Dennison later had stints as a special teams coordinator (1997-2000), offensive line coach (2001-2005), offensive coordinator (2006-2008) and offensive line coach (2009) in Denver.
He left the Broncos in 2010 to serve as the Houston Texans' offensive coordinator under Gary Kubiak. Dennison then followed Kubiak to the Baltimore Ravens as a quarterbacks coach 2014 before returning to Denver (again with Kubiak) in 2015 as offensive coordinator.
Dennison helped the Broncos win Super Bowl 50 in 2015 and then spent one more year with the club before moving to the Buffalo Bills as an OC in 2017. He later spent time with the New York Jets, Minnesota Vikings and New Orleans Saints. Dennison now lands in Seattle, his eighth NFL team.

Former Longhorn punter earns record NFL contract
Former Longhorn punter earns record NFL contract Micheal Dickson rewarded with massive extension Former Longhorn star Michael Dickson is once again the highest-paid punter in the NFL. On Tuesday, Dickson signed a four-year, $16.2 million extension with the Seattle Seahawks. His extension came less than 24 hours after Jacksonville Jaguars punter Logan Cooke signed a four-year, $16 million extension. During his NFL career, the Australian native has been a human highlight reel with his leg. In seven seasons, Dickson has averaged 48.2 yards per punt, including a career-best 50 yards in 2023. Since making his NFL debut, the 29-year-old has placed 42.1 percent of his kicks inside the 20-yard line. As Dickson has become one of the Seahawks' best players, his work ethic has not gone unnoticed. One coach he has impressed is special teams coach Jay Harbaugh. " He's certainly not taken for granted within this building," Harbaugh said, per the team's website. "We love him and are highly impressed by him all the time. Just think the world of him, his consistency as a performer, he's really a model, even though what he does is really different from a lot of other positions on the field. I think when you get past that if you're another player and you see who he is as a pro and what he does day in and day out, the mental approach, the care he takes for his body, his ability to take information, good or bad, and process it and then move on. It's really a great example for other players as well." Dickson's success in the NFL has come as no surprise for many in Austin. He averaged 45.3 yards per punt over his three years at Texas and was a unanimous All-American in 2017. That is partly why the former pro-bowler was a popular prospect coming out of college. With no signs of slowing down, a big 2025 campaign could be on the horizon for Dickson. When the regular season begins in just a few months, he will again be one of the Seahawks' most important pieces.

Indeed, his four-year stint at San Siro was a complete disaster. Botafogo Sign Joaquin Correa from Inter Milan on Two-Year Deal MILAN, ITALY – FEBRUARY 25: Joaquin Correa of FC Internazionale gestures during the Coppa Italia, Quarter Final match between FC Internazionale and SS Lazio at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on February 25, 2025 in Milan, Italy. (Photo by) Despite swapping Lazio for Inter as one of Serie A's best forwards in 2021, Correa's career in Lombardy never took off. Inter tried to help the Argentine get back on track by sending him out on a season-long loan to Olympique Marseille in 2023/24. However, Correa flopped in Ligue 1 as Les Olympiens refused to sign him permanently the following summer. He spent most of the 2024/25 campaign as a marginal figure at Giuseppe Meazza.

In total, he made 99 appearances for the 20-time Italian champions, racking up 12 goals and nine assists.

Receiver Terry McLaurin skips Commanders minicamp while looking for a new contract
FILE - Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin during the NFC Championship NFL football game against the Philadelphia Eagles, in Philadelphia, Jan. 26, 2025. (AP Photo/Derik Hamilton, File) ASHBURN, Va. (AP) — Terry McLaurin is not at Washington Commanders mandatory minicamp as the team's top wide receiver looks for a new contract. McLaurin, who turns 30 in September, is only signed through the next NFL season. Advertisement 'Hey, sometimes football and business, they intersect and this is one of those times,' coach Dan Quinn said Tuesday. 'Terry is a fantastic teammate and really puts in the work, and we spent a lot of time with him already this offseason.' McLaurin has surpassed 1,000 yards receiving each of the past five seasons and fell only 81 short in his rookie year because he missed games because of an injury. A third-round pick in 2019 out of Ohio State who dealt with quarterback roulette for the quite some time after breaking into the league, McLaurin set career highs with 82 catches and 13 touchdowns with Jayden Daniels as the starter and Marcus Mariota the backup. Quinn downplayed McLaurin not being there, saying the good news is the wideout and QBs have already established strong rapport. He's leaving the negotiating part to general manager Adam Peters. 'The business side of things, Adam and their crew and Terry and his group, let them work through that,' Quinn said. 'But in the meantime, lots of stuff to do.' ___ AP NFL:
