Eagles | Jalen Hurts terrific at home in 2025 Wed Feb 4, 07:30 PM
Philadelphia Eagles QB Jalen Hurts threw 14 touchdowns and only one interception at home during the 2025 regular season.
| Footballguys view: Hurts is one of the best quarterbacks in the league, and he's great at home. With three years left on his deal, the Eagles will push for another Super Bowl run in 2026. Hurts should continue being a dominant passer at home. |

Minnesota Vikings passing game coordinator/tight ends coach Brian Angelichio is being hired by the Pittsburgh Steelers as their new offensive coordinator, according to s sources.
| Footballguys view: Angelichio and Mike McCarthy have a previous working relationship from when they were with the Packers. He's a long-time NFL assistant, and now Angelichio gets to take on a larger role with a historic franchise. McCarthy is likely to be the team's play-caller on gameday. |

Link to story Cardinals | Nathaniel Hackett hired as OC Wed Feb 4, 02:37 PM
Miami Dolphins QB coach Nathaniel Hackett was hired by the Arizona Cardinals to fill their offensive coordinator vacancy on Wednesday, Feb. 4.
| Footballguys view: Good luck with that. Hackett hasn't done much outside of his time with Aaron Rodgers in Green Bay. Hackett didn't work with new Cardinals HC Mike LaFleur, but he did spend a few seasons with his brother Packers HC Matt LaFleur. Nothing is official, but most expect LaFleur to be the play-caller for the Cardinals offense. Now, about that quarterback thing... |
Packers | Green Bay expects to lose Malik Willis to free agency Wed Feb 4, 02:02 PM
Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst acknowledges that the team is likely to lose QB Malik Willis in free agency. He cites that he will likely look for a team where he will be able to compete for a starting job.
| Footballguys view: Everyone under the sun expects Willis to get a starting opportunity in 2026. Where that is nobody knows, but a team like the Steelers could show interest. Willis has a big arm, and his athleticism makes him a threat to run on any play. With his skill set, Willis could easily be a top-10 fantasy quarterback in the right system. |
Titans | Gus Bradley announced as DC Wed Feb 4, 01:58 PM
The Tennessee Titans announced Gus Bradley as their new defensive coordinator on Wednesday, Feb. 4.
| Footballguys view: Bradley is a long-time defensive coordinator who has worked with new Titans HC Robert Saleh in San Francisco. Saleh should call the plays on defense, allowing Bradley to set his scheme in Tennessee. |

Jets | Jacoby Brissett a Jets target Wed Feb 4, 12:52 PM
Arizona Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett could be a potential trade target for the New York Jets. Brissett played for offensive coordinator Frank Reich when he was the head coach of the Indianapolis Colts.
| Footballguys view: The Jets have Justin Fields as their top quarterback entering the 2026 season, and that's not good enough. Brissett could steady the ship for the Jets offense and at least give them a fighting chance. |

Link to story Jets | Frank Reich hired as Jets OC Wed Feb 4, 09:57 AM
Former Carolina Panthers head coach Frank Reich was hired by the New York Jets as offensive coordinator Wednesday, Feb. 4.
| Footballguys view: Reich has his work cut out for him with the Jets. The quarterback situation is a mess, and a centerpiece of their offense (Breece Hall) is a free agent. Reich will see what he can do with an underwhelming roster on offense and a head coach in Aaron Glenn who begins 2026 firmly on the hot seat. We'll be curious to see if Reich can be part of the staff that changes the culture with this losing team. |
Colts | Confident Daniel Jones will be retained Wed Feb 4, 09:57 AM
Indianapolis Colts QB Daniel Jones (Achilles) might be ready for the season, and the team is confident it will be able to retain him for 2026.
| Footballguys view: Jones suffered a torn Achilles in Week 14's loss to the Jaguars, so his availability for Week 1 is in question. Signing an effective veteran quarterback coming off this major injury is something the Colts should do. Jones had the Colts looking like one of the best teams in the league early in the 2025 season. |

Bills | Khalil Shakir led team with 719 receiving yards Wed Feb 4, 09:57 AM
Buffalo Bills WR Khalil Shakir led the team with 719 receiving yards, with the next-closest receiving being WR Keon Coleman with 404 yards. The team is likely to address the receiver position in either the draft, free agency, or both.
| Footballguys view: The Bills thought Coleman could be a no.1 receiver, but his second pro season totals (404 yards) fell short of his rookie year (556 yards). In order to be active in free agency, the Bills must first get under the salary cap. OverTheCap.com currently has them $7.4 MM over the cap. |
Jaguars | Appear in line to extend Travon Walker Tue Feb 3, 11:55 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars LB Travon Walker appears to be in line for an extension this offseason. He finished with 37 total stops, 18 solo tackles, 3.5 sacks and two passes defensed in 2025, his fourth season in Jacksonville.
Link to story Jaguars | Unlikely to use tag on Devin Lloyd Tue Feb 3, 11:53 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars LB Devin Lloyd, an impending free agent, might be too expensive on the free-agent market, and the team is unlikely to use the franchise tag at a projected $28.2 million.

Texans | Hopeful Aireontae Ersery will progress Tue Feb 3, 11:45 PM
Houston Texans OT Aireontae Ersery had what is viewed as a rocky rookie campaign, and the team is hopeful he'll be able to step up. The offensive line struggled in 2025, and the team must bulk up their interior offensive line to help open holes in the ground game, particularly in short-yardage situations, according to NFL.com's Kevin Patra.
Link to story Texans | Ed Ingram was best of lot on offensive line Tue Feb 3, 11:42 PM

Ravens | Travis Jones led team with five sacks Tue Feb 3, 11:13 PM
Baltimore Ravens DT Travis Jones led the team with five sacks. However, head coach Jesse Minter is expected to address the pass-rush situation in the offseason, adding more pressure with perhaps multiple extra rushers. Minter didn't bring extra rushers often, as Los Angeles Chargers defensive coordinator, blitzing at just a 20.4% rate last season, third-lowest in the NFL.

New England Patriots DT Milton Williams is the only player in Super Bowl LX who is making his third-career Super Bowl appearance. He won last season as a member of the Philadelphia Eagles.

He had two sacks and four quarterback hits in last season's postseason run in Philadelphia, including two sacks and a forced fumble in Super Bowl LIX against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Link to story Cardinals | Mike LaFleur to call plays Tue Feb 3, 03:09 PM
Arizona Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur will call plays for the team in 2026.
| Footballguys view: Though Sean McVay has been the Rams' playcaller, LaFleur played a vital role in the team's success. In his three years in Los Angeles, the offense was fifth in passing yards, first downs, and touchdowns, sixth in yards and points per game, and eighth in red-zone efficiency. In 2025, McVay, LaFleur, and quarterback Matthew Stafford were at the forefront of an offense that was first in the NFL in points and yards ahead of a run to the NFC title game. LaFleur, who handled playcalling for two seasons as Jets offensive coordinator, told reporters on Tuesday that "he missed it." |
Steelers | Brian Angelichio interviewing for OC vacancy Tue Feb 3, 02:21 PM
Minnesota Vikings TE coach Brian Angelichio is interviewing with the Pittsburgh Steelers for their offensive coordinator vacancy on Tuesday, Feb. 3.
| Footballguys view: With Saints assistant Scott Tolzien, who interviewed for the Steelers OC spot on Monday, deciding to stay in New Orleans, it appears that Angelichio is the only name left in the race in Pittsburgh. As SI.com notes, during his time in Minnesota, Angelichio has been a key part of Kevin O'Connell's staff and offensive game planning. Angelichio doesn't have experience calling plays at the NFL level, but that won't matter in Pittsburgh as head coach Mike McCarthy will handle that role. It would allow Angelichio to learn the role slowly while helping to form and execute McCarthy's game plan. |
Browns | Todd Monken doesn't commit to Shedeur Sanders Tue Feb 3, 01:56 PM
Cleveland Browns head coach was asked if QB Shedeur Sanders would be QB1 for the team in 2026, and he said that it is to be determined. He added he 'absolutely' can earn the job, though.
| Footballguys view: "I think like any position on the team, that's still to be determined," Monken said of Cleveland's QB situation. "Am I excited about Shedeur? Am I excited about all the quarterbacks in the room? Am I excited to coach this football team? Absolutely." Monken talked about what he likes in a quarterback, focusing heavily on intangibles and personality. Meanwhile, the Browns have been in search of consistent, steady, productive quarterback play effectively since the team re-entered the league in 1999. It remains to be seen if Monken can develop Sanders or any other quarterback into that kind of player. |

Saints | Scott Tolzien staying put Tue Feb 3, 11:21 AM
New Orleans Saints quarterbacks coach Scott Tolzien will remain with the team after interviewing for offensive coordinator positions.

In 2025, Tolzien worked with rookie Tyler Shough, helping him finish the season having completed 67.6 percent of his passes for 2,384 yards with 10 touchdowns and six interceptions in 11 games with nine starts. Now Tolzien will continue to work with Shough to further his development. |

Bears | Connor Senger sought for Bears interview Tue Feb 3, 10:42 AM
Arizona Cardinals pass game specialist Connor Senger has been requested for an interview for the Chicago Bears offensive coordinator post.
| Footballguys view: Senger joined the Cardinals as a coaching fellow in 2022 and took on his current role after working as a quality control coach and assistant quarterbacks coach. According to Profootballtalk.com, Senger has drawn interest as a quarterbacks coach in recent days as teams put together their coaching staffs ahead of the 2026 season, and he also served as the offensive coordinator for the East team in this year's East-West Shrine Bowl. Senger called plays in that role, but Bears head coach Ben Johnson handles those duties in Chicago. |
Giants | Matt Nagy hired as offensive coordinator by Giants Tue Feb 3, 09:19 AM
Former Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy was hired by the New York Giants for their offensive coordinator post.
| Footballguys view: Nagy, who was the Chiefs' offensive coordinator for the past three seasons, will be tasked with leading the development of second-year quarterback Jaxson Dart and an offense that has other young players such as Malik Nabers and Cam Skattebo. Head coach John Harbaugh told reporters that Dart was involved in the hiring process. The Chiefs' offenses under Nagy finished ninth, 16th, and 20th over the past three years in total yards. They failed to crack the top 10 in scoring in any of those three seasons, although Andy Reid has been the Chiefs' primary playcaller. |
