MSU football offers, reportedly will host transfer edge rusher Georgia State transfer edge rusher Cam Williams will reportedly visit Michigan State next week
Michigan State football has reportedly set its eyes on a transfer edge rusher from Georgia State.
The Spartans have extended an offer to Georgia State transfer edge rusher Cam Williams, according to a post from his social media X account. Additionally, Spartans Illustrated reported on Wednesday night that Williams will visit Michigan State next week.
Williams played in 12 games for the Panthers last season, recording 21 tackles (five for loss), one sack and one forced fumble. Williams was the highest-graded defender for Georgia State in 2024, according to Pro Football Focus.
Williams has played for four different schools during his college career. He started off at Miami (FL) where he played in nine games with the Hurricanes in 2020. From there, he transferred to Troy (one game in 2021), Jacksonville State (12 games in 2023) and then Georgia State this past season.
Michigan State football is in the market for an edge rusher after Anthony Jones entered the yesterday. Jones was the top returner in sacks (two) for the Spartans from last year's roster.

Graham Barton Graded as Weak Link in Tampa Bay Buccaneers Offensive Line
Graham Barton Graded as Weak Link in Tampa Bay Buccaneers Offensive Line originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had a huge hole to fill in the offensive line after the retirement of Ryan Jensen. Jensen was consistently one of the best at his position throughout his career. Advertisement The team took Duke's Graham Barton with the No. 26 overall pick in 2024, hoping he could live up to the lofty standards at center that Jensen had set in place. While Barton was a guard in college, the transition was thought to be an easy one due to his raw skills. And it was. But in Pro Football Focus' latest rankings of NFL centers, Barton did not show well, ending up at No. 21. "While Barton's rookie season didn't culminate in an excellent grading profile, he showcased a solid foundation. In his second season at just 24 years old, the Buccaneers center will be hoping to build on his ability as a pass protector, where he allowed just a single sack across 640 pass sets in 2024." Advertisement Barton landed an overall grade of 55.6, which was the lowest across the Bucs' offensive line. Left tackle Tristan Wirfs earned an 82.5, left guard Ben Bredeson graded out to a 56.0, right guard Cody Mauch got a 74.6 and right tackle Luke Goedeke earned a 74.2. Notably, Barton was graded just higher than the guy he replaced, Jacksonville's Robert Hainsey, who filled in at center before he was drafted. Hainsey earned the No. 23 spot on the list. Kansas City's Creed Humphrey earned the top spot, followed by Baltimore's Tyler Linderbaum and Pittsburgh's Zach Frazier rounding out the top three.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers Offensive Duo Named in NFL's Top 5
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Offensive Duo Named in NFL's Top 5 originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers boast an incredible offensive duo that has already shown to be one of the best pairings in the NFL in just two short seasons together. Advertisement Quarterback Baker Mayfield arrived in Tampa Bay in 2023 after being tossed aside by the likes of Cleveland and Carolina and proceeded to make his first two Pro Bowl appearances of his career. When he joined the Bucs and wideout Mike Evans, magic happened. That's why Pro Football Focus ranked the pair in the top five of offensive duos in the NFL. 5. TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS: BAKER MAYFIELD & MIKE EVANS "Mayfield and Evans both ranked near the top 10 of their respective position rankings heading into the season, with Evans at No. 9 and Mayfield coming at No. 13. Since Mayfield arrived in Tampa Bay in 2023, his 22 big-time throws when targeting Evans are tied for the second most among duos in these rankings, behind only Tua Tagovailoa and Tyreek Hill (28). Mayfield-to-Evans has also produced 2,259 yards over the past two years, which ranks third on this list." Advertisement Mayfield and Evans rank behind, 4. Washington's Jayden Daniels and Terry McLaurin, 3. Houston's C.J. Stroud and Nico Collins, 2. Philadelphia's Jalen Hurts and A.J. Brown and 1. Cincinnati's Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase. Since Mayfield arrived in Tampa Bay in 2023, he's made his first two career Pro Bowls and had back-to-back career passing seasons. Evans continued his now-record-tying streak of 11 straight 1,000-yard seasons with Mayfield throwing him the ball the past two years, and has a chance to stand alone at the top if he can post his 12th in 2025.

Washington Commanders cornerback Marshon Lattimore may be entering a make-or-break season.
Washington Commanders cornerback Marshon Lattimore may be entering a make-or-break season. originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Washington Commanders made a trade with the New Orleans Saints back in November of 2024 to acquire veteran cornerback Marshon Lattimore. While he was only able to play in two games for his new team, he will play a key role for them in 2025. Advertisement And this season could be a very important one for the 29-year-old defensive back. In a recent article by Nick Shook, he picks some players who he believes are entering "make-or-break" seasons, and one of the players he lists is the Commanders veteran. "This is about earning the final year of his contract," Shook wrote. "Lattimore moved to Washington as a coveted trade acquisition but struggled to find the same form with the Commanders, posting some truly dreadful Pro Football Focus grades in the postseason. There's reason to believe a full year with Dan Quinn will fix things, and Lattimore is under pressure to do so this fall because the Commanders can cut ties with zero financial penalty in 2026." Lattimore will be a free agent after the 2026 season, so if he plays well in 2025, then he could lined up for quite the pay day when the time comes. Advertisement The veteran cornerback played 10 games in 2023, but he still racked up eight passes defended and 48 total tackles. The Commanders are hoping to compete with the likes of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC East this season, so Lattimore will be looking to help the team's defense do just that.
