Jason McIntyre Co-Host of THE HERD and FOX Sports Betting Analyst When it comes to the NFL Week 6 Thursday Night Football game, it’s 49ers all day. San Francisco has historically dominated the series with the Seahawks, winning five straight against Seattle — including the two meetings last year by a combined 30 points.  How much does this matter given …

In a moment of total transparency, standing in front of a semicircle of reporters in Schembechler Hall for the first time since his spring 2023 arrival, Michigan football quarterback Jack Tuttle admitted none of this was expected. Not a seventh year of eligibility. Not a starting job. Heck, as recently as this spring, not even throwing a football. Michigan quarterback …

Equanimeous St. Brown may no longer play in the same division as his brother, star Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown.  But Equanimeous, who signed with the New Orleans Saints practice squad this offseason after stints with the Lions’ NFC North rivals, Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears, still apparently has some beef with Detroit. “If people could chose …

The Titans hope to have Will Levis at quarterback for Sunday’s game against the Colts, but they added some veteran depth in the event they have to start Mason Rudolph. The team announced that they have signed Trevor Siemian to the practice squad on Wednesday. They also signed tackle Leroy Watson to the active roster from the practice squad. Siemian …

It’s been more than 13 months since Connor Stalions was on Central Michigan’s sidelines during its game at Michigan State. CMU’s administration and head coach still haven’t said what happened. They know what happened. We’ve all known since late October of last year that a man who looked a whole lot like the disgraced former University of Michigan football staffer …

The NFL has placed New England Patriots safety Jabrill Peppers on the exempt list while he goes through the legal process following his arrest on charges that he shoved his girlfriend’s head into the wall and choked her.

Alabama football is looking to get its third-down defense back on track against South Carolina. Considering South Carolina has one of the worst third-down conversion rates in the country at 30%, ranking 121st out of 133 teams, opportunity is knocking. Banging, rather. Co-defensive coordinator and defensive backs coach Maurice Linguist said Tuesday that the Crimson Tide has spent the week …

New York Giants edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux has had wrist surgery and will be week to week, coach Brian Daboll said Wednesday. Thibodeaux played in Sunday’s 29-20 win over the Seahawks in Seattle.

Maye praises Brissett as ‘great mentor’ ahead of first Patriots start originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston The New England Patriots offense has struggled mightily through five games, so the team is making a change at quarterback ahead of Sunday’s Week 6 game against the Houston Texans at Gillette Stadium.

It’s amazing what a 500-yard game will do to put concerns about a quarterback to rest. Kirk Cousins’ prolific night last Thursday in a 36-30 overtime win over the Bucs was enough to put the Falcons in first place in the NFC South.

Aaron Rodgers is headed to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. That is true even if the New York Jets can’t find a way out of their early season spiral that saw their record fall to 2-3 and their coach, Robert Saleh, get fired on Tuesday. Heck, that is true if he never completes another pass for the New York …

Auburn football still can’t seem to get out of its own way, which was proved evident by an apparent miscommunication during the Tigers’ 31-13 loss to Georgia in Week 6. Quarterback Payton Thorne and the Tigers (2-4, 0-3 SEC) faced a fourth-and-1 on their own 44-yard line to start the fourth quarter against the Bulldogs. Thorne was inevitably stuffed on …

Why did the New York Jets fire head coach Robert Saleh after five games? In a statement following Saleh’s dismissal on Tuesday, team owner Woody Johnson said that the decision to fire Saleh and elevate defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich to interim head coach came because the Jets aren’t where they should be given their “expectations.” That said, citing “a number …
