Although the two quarterbacks will split reps, the Cleveland Browns coaching staff has announced Brian Hoyer, not Johnny Manziel, will start Monday night against the Washington Redskins. After an inconclusive Week 1 preseason game, fans were wondering whether Manziel would get the nod in Week 2. Browns Head Coach Mike Pettine got ahead of the rumor train by releasing an official statement that said he and his staff are "comfortable" with Hoyer starting their Monday Night game against the Redskins. “I think it's a … [Read more...]

Jadeveon Clowney Cleared for Houston Texans First Preseason Game
The Houston Texans have cleared top overall NFL draft pick Jadeveon Clowney to play in their preseason game tonight against the Arizona Cardinals. The linebacker's ability to play in the Texans' preseason debut was unsure as recently as one week ago. Having Jadeveon Clowney cleared makes the game much more intriguing for fans and coaches alike. Texans fans got a scare just one week ago when Clowney was carried off the field. Although he was approved to return July 26 from sports hernia surgery in June, he was … [Read more...]
Johnny Manziel Expected to Start for Browns in Week 1
While the Cleveland Browns coaching staff remains mum on the team's official starting QB, a member of the coaching staff from their Week 1 opponent thinks the Browns' highest-profile rookie will get the starting nod in Week 1. Was Johnny Manziel expected to start the regular season as the team's top QB? Not five days ago. But according to Dick LeBeau, a defensive coordinator for the Pittsburgh Steelers, it may be Manziel's inevitable role. On Monday, Manziel took most of the first-team reps during the Browns … [Read more...]
Tom Brady to Sit Out New England Patriots Pre-Season Game Tonight
Quarterback Tom Brady will sit out tonight's New England Patriots pre-season game against the Washington Redskins, according to an ESPN source. No specific reason was given for Brady sitting out. With Brady on the sideline for the Pats' first pre-season game, the Patriots coaching staff will have a chance to learn more about backup QB Ryan Mallett. During the regular season Mallet won't likely see much play, so tonight's preseason game against the Redskins will give him some good first-team reps. It's not like … [Read more...]
Don’t Read into Johnny Manziel Taking First-Team Reps
Social media blew up yesterday with reports of Johnny Manziel taking first-team reps at the Cleveland Browns' practices on Monday. On one hand, it was surprising to see Manziel taking the entire slate of first-team reps rather than splitting duties with would-be starting QB Brian Hoyer. On the other -- and perhaps "more realistic" -- hand, the Browns had to see what "Johnny Football" really offers. According to a report on NFL.com, Manziel's first pass with the first-team Browns was a 40-yard bomb that went right … [Read more...]
NY Giants RB David Wilson Done for Season, Career
NY Giants quarterback Eli Manning will be pitching the ball to another running back this season. After another neck injury in preseason practice, NY Giants RB David Wilson has been placed in the injured reserve for the season and will likely be done for his career. Two doctors have independently advised that Wilson stop playing football or risk irreparable damage to his neck and spine. The news is an unexpected blow for the 23 year-old, who had shown much promise in his first two seasons. The 2014-15 NFL season … [Read more...]
Draft Day Blu-ray Release Date: Just Before NFL Kickoff
