Another analyst steps up to defend Jalen Hurts after Cam Newton's harsh critique
Another established voice come to Jalen Hurts defense after cam Newton's verbal assault. No one loved beef like the late, great 'Drama King,' D.J. Kay Slay. If things were quiet and there wasn't any, he'd create some. If he were here, he'd be having a field day with the Jalen Hurts narratives if he hadn't passed on after a COVID-19 contraction in 2022. This seemed like a mere opinion a couple of years ago. Still, it's hard to think of a starting quarterback who is marginalized and disrespected more often than the Philadelphia Eagles starter. All he does is win. All people do is complain. If you only read the narratives, you'd think he was Trevor Lawrence or Justin Herbert... But, that probably doesn't make the point we're trying to communicate because people keep telling us those two are better players. Recently, Cam Newton joined the Jalen Hurts onslaught. That was surprising. If anyone joined Hurt's side, we would have assumed it would have been him, but no dice. Hurts found some support as Newton was criticized for his statements. The 2015 NFL MVP didn't waver. He doubled down. Most thought training camp would shift the focus away from this, but an established voice joined the discussion. And, he's backing Hurts. Chase Senior is an analyst and content creator over at Chat Sports. He hosts Eagles Now and the 49ers Report. He joined in on the Newton vs. Hurts discussion and did Philadelphia sports fans proud. We tried to play devil's advocate and offer a varying opinion just for kicks after that one, but we can't. Senior hit the nail on the head there. That sound you hear is Newton's jaw hitting the floor. Well done, Mr. Senior. There's seemingly nothing left to add after that level of excellence. That being said, we get back to the Eagles training camp news.

New York Giants' Malik Nabers makes debut on NFL Top 100 Players of 2025 list
There aren't many players the New York Giants can hang their hats on these days. Defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence, linebacker Brian Burns, and left tackle Andrew Thomas, the team's three highest players, are among the best at their positions in the league, but there's not a lot to pick from after that -- yet. Enter second-year wide receiver Malik Nabers, who set an NFL record for receptions by a rookie wideout last season. Nabers is one of the league's biggest rising stars and was recently named to NFL Network's Top 100 Players of 2025 list. No. 67 - Malik Nabers, WR, New York Giants 15 games | 109 rec | 1,204 rec yds | 11.0 ypr | 7 rec TDs | 2 rush yds | 1 rush TD An emerging star in New York, Nabers was a highlight reel every week for the Giants. Regardless of who was under center for the Giants, the No. 6 overall pick in the 2024 draft filled the stat sheet. Nabers was a bright spot in New York's underwhelming season with his receptions tally briefly holding the rookie record, and finishes his debut campaign with a Top 100 accolade to his résumé. NFL Pro Insight for : Malik Nabers was targeted on 36.5% of his routes run when facing single-high safety coverage last season, second-highest in the NFL among wide receivers with at least 150 such routes run. Nabers earned 103 targets against single-high coverages last season, nine more than any other receiver. However, he gained just 649 yards on those targets, ranking 13th overall. The Giants feel they have several other possible rising stars, such as safety Tyler Nubin, tight end Theo Johnson, running back Tyrone Tracy Jr., and linebacker Abdul Carter.
