Top NFL training camp storylines
How will Browns' quarterback competition end?
Joe Flacco appears to be the favorite, Kenny Pickett is a veteran with a shot, Dillon Gabriel was the higher of the two draft picks this past spring, and Shedeur Sanders is, well, Shedeur Sanders. Whoever wins, it'll be buzzy.
Aaron Rodgers, Jalen Ramsey join up with Steelers
Two of the biggest offseason additions happened in June, and the Steelers are counting on them to help lift the franchise higher than a first-round exit and into genuine Super Bowl contention.
Will Terry McLaurin get a new deal?
Terry McLaurin had his best season last year and is now entering the final year of his current contract. But there's been little movement on an extension, despite McLaurin sitting out of minicamp in June to send a message. "I've been pretty frustrated, I'm not gonna lie," McLaurin said Tuesday. The question Washington must answer: How long will he stay that way?
What's up with contract extensions for Micah Parsons and Trey Hendrickson?
T.J. Watt got his historic contract extension. Now attention turns toward two other star pass rushers, Micah Parsons and Trey Hendrickson. The Cowboys notoriously slow-play retaining their star talent, so while it feels like a Parsons deal will get done, the fact it hasn't is notable. And the Bengals and Hendrickson are talking again, so there's that.
How fast will all second-round picks sign?
A handful of second-round picks from this past draft have now signed, after the first two that did had their contracts fully guaranteed. The rest are pushing for as much guaranteed money as possible, and thus far it's benefited the players greatly.
How will George Pickens incorporate with Cowboys?
Dak Prescott is hyped to throw to newly acquired wide receiver George Pickens, especially with CeeDee Lamb already in the same offense. Will we see early fireworks at camp and in preseason from this connection?
How will J.J. McCarthy look as Vikings QB?
After missing last year (on-field, at least) due to injury, J.J. McCarthy takes the reins as QB1 in Minnesota. Will the 2024 10th overall pick reward the faith of head coach Kevin O'Connell and general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, who let Sam Darnold walk this offseason? And if he doesn't, could a Kirk Cousins reunion be in line?
How will Jaguars use Travis Hunter?
The second overall pick of the draft has spent the majority of his time on offense this offseason and has gotten defensive snaps when the daily plan called for it. We'll get more information on how the Jaguars will use him this month.
How soon can Jaxson Dart start?
Russell Wilson is QB1 with the Giants to start training camp. But first-round pick Jaxson Dart has prototype physical traits and could push to begin his inevitable takeover of the job sooner rather than later.
Ben Johnson's first year with Bears, Caleb Williams
Chicago wanted an offensive mastermind to pair with its first overall pick from 2024. Ben Johnson is that guy, having helmed the Lions' prolific offense the past few seasons. What will he look like as a head coach with a talent like Williams?
Raiders' new-look offense gets installed
Geno Smith is the quarterback. Ashton Jeanty is the running back. Brock Bowers is arguably TE1 leaguewide already. Chip Kelly is the new offensive coordinator. The Raiders should be entertaining as hell on offense. We get our first true glimpses very soon.
Sam Darnold takes over in Seattle
The Seahawks' $100(.5) million QB is the centerpiece of an overhaul that took place this offseason. Klint Kubiak will be calling plays, DK Metcalf is gone, and the offense as a whole will look different. The biggest piece will be Darnold, who can either prove the first 16 games last year were his real self — and not the last two.

Joey Bosa says he's hung out with new Bills teammates more than any other in career

For the first time in his professional career, five-time Pro Bowl pass rusher Joey Bosa is playing for a new team. And that's not the only new first of his career. "I hung out more with teammates in Buffalo in the 6 weeks I was here than probably my entire career," the 10-year NFL veteran defensive end said to the press. Bosa joined the Bills on a one-year deal. One in which he's hoping to buck the trends of his past injury history and compete for a championship with a playoff contender. His comments on hanging out with his teammates read as consistent with what's known about the Bills roster, that they spend much of their time together off the field, forging a strong bond that translates to the locker room and onto the field in game play as well. The adjustment to his new team as well as to Western New York has been a good one for the 30-year-old and his family. "It's nice, it gets repetitive every year the same thing over and over again, I mean I loved my time with the Chargers and I wouldn't trade it for anything, but I think it was just getting a little redundant, especially with my injuries the last few years, I needed a fresh start, and new scenery, so it's been a really pleasant surprise, getting to know Buffalo and Orchard Park, it's been beautiful," Bosa shared. "I have a yard, I have space to live and my dog can run around and we've got families of geese in the backyard that we've been following, my fiancée loves it, the fans are amazing unless you're at dinner and they're screaming mid dinner, I can't remember the song (probably shout) but it was quite the experience." Buffalo won't need him to play every snap, as they have defensive end depth to keep his workload manageable so as to maximise his opportunities to remain healthy and impact games. They are hoping he can form a dynamic threat across from edge rusher Greg Rousseau, and with A.J. Epenesa and Landon Jackson in their rotation. The group provides the Bills with tremendous defensive length against opponents (Jackson - 33 1/4" arms, Epenesa - 34 1/2" arms, Walker - 34 1/4" arms, Bosa - 33 3/8" arms). "I'm gonna try to be the player that I've always been," he noted. "Like I mentioned, stay healthy, I think I can be dominant still. I'm still only just 30. I'm not washed just yet. I'm getting there, but I got a little bit longer." The veteran pass rusher reached the playoffs three times in nine years with the Chargers, including two wild-card round exits. Buffalo, meanwhile, has made the playoffs in seven of the last eight years and is a Super Bowl contender. "Let's hope I don't mess that up now," Bosa added. "Hopefully, I can be a tool to help push it over that edge to get to the place that obviously everybody here has their eyes set on. It's fun coming to an organization that has been there and done it. They all have a really common goal, and we all know what that is. Every team has that same goal, but not every team has the same chance of actually achieving that goal. So yeah, it's exciting. I just want to do anything I can to help the team win, and hopefully we just continue the success." I mean, he's a dog. He's everything I've seen watching him, like when he was on the Chargers, you know? So, it's fun to be out there with a with a guy like that," Rousseau said about his new teammate after Monday's practice. "It's a blessing. Also, just a really cool dude. Off the field, we have conversations about random stuff every day. When asked what stands out about Bosa, he also noted his work ethic and attitude. 'He's consistent, you know what I'm saying? The way he just comes to work, has a good attitude," Rousseau added. "Obviously, his experience, you know, so I mean, we're really happy to have him." Bosa is embracing the fresh start and the high expectations that come with joining a championship contender in Buffalo, and is confident in what he has to offer. "I think I still have a lot left to give playing-wise, not just wisdom-wise," he said. "As long as I stay healthy like we're talked about, which I'm going to do everything in my power to do that and be as helpful as I can to this team, I think I can go out there and have a great year."

5 stunning fantasy football trophies to order for your 2025 league

Unless you're the Super Bowl champs, nothing compares to draft day for your fantasy football team. For many, a trip to Buffalo Wild Wings or a friend's basement-turned draft "war room" is as intense as the actual NFL Draft itself. While that's fun, the feeling of watching your hand-picked team (or auto-drafted, but please no) will your funkily-named squad to a championship is almost euphoric. Sadly, it's been too long since I've had that feeling as my wife has won each of the past two seasons. But not this year! For those champions, money or bragging rights is typically the reward.

Drew Allar's growth from 3-star recruit to Penn State's leader

From Underdog to Top Dog James Franklin didn't hesitate when asked about Drew Allar at Big Ten Media Days. He's proud of him. Not just for what he does on the field, but for how far he's come since high school. 'Drew has made tremendous growth every single year,' Franklin said. 'All the way back to recruiting.' He reminded everyone that Allar wasn't always seen as a surefire star. 'When we first started recruiting, [he] was a three-star recruit, kind of a throwback recruit,' Franklin said. 'Kept getting better, kept moving up the charts.' Some recruiting services had Drew Allar as the top-rated quarterback in the nation. That alone shows the type of work Allar put in before even stepping on campus. Franklin also pointed out how Allar had to sit and learn his freshman year as a backup behind an NFL quarterback. He didn't complain. He got better. 'He's now 6'5", 235 pounds, can make every throw on the field,' Franklin said. 'He's shown that he can hurt people with his feet and has really, really made tremendous strides as a leader.' That leadership is a huge part of why Franklin is so high on him heading into the 2025 season. 'He's willing to have tough conversations with his teammates,' he said. 'He's holding himself to a high standard.' Allar already had first-round NFL Draft buzz last season, but chose to return to Penn State for one more year. That decision says everything. 'Unfinished business collectively as a team but also as an individual,' Franklin said. For Franklin, Allar represents what Penn State is all about—doing things the right way and playing for the team, not just yourself. 'He's really what it's all about,' Franklin said. 'It's team, team, team. It's community. It's Penn State.' Now, heading into his third straight year as the starting quarterback, Allar is on track to graduate this fall. He already has more than 800 completions, 50-plus touchdowns, and fewer than 10 interceptions—stats that put him in rare company since 1956. The stage is set for Allar to not only lead but also to take the final leap. Franklin and the rest of Penn State believe he's ready. And honestly, after everything Allar's shown on and off the field, it's hard not to believe it too.
