It isn’t often former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick decides to shower someone with praise, but when he does people are sure to pay attention. That’s sure to be the case after Matthew Slater announced his retirement Tuesday, prompting effusive praise from the man who drafted him. “Matthew Slater deserves every accolade someone could receive. He is a once in a lifetime person, and the best core special teams player in NFL history,” Belichick said in a statement, as shared by Adam Schefter of ESPN. “His daily, weekly and yearly work ethic, paved the way for his unsurpassed…
Kendrick Bourne was named a potential target for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Wide receiver isn’t a position that you would expect to be too high on the list of priorities for the Pittsburgh Steelers. The team has some talented options at the position and has major needs elsewhere on the roster. Still, they could decide they want to add another option at the position to try and give Kenny Pickett the best chance of succeeding in his third year in the NFL. That option could be a starter from another team with a struggling young QB. The Pittsburgh Post-Gazzette’s Ray Fittipaldo…
The Pittsburgh Steelers are no closer to plotting their path out of their quarterback crisis with the franchise internally divided over sticking with Kenny Pickett and Mason Rudolph. The Pittsburgh Steelers are in a state of confusion when it comes to their quarterback situation. The franchise reportedly can’t decide whether to stick with Kenny Pickett and Mason Rudolph or bring in a blockbuster addition such as Justin Fields, Kirk Cousins, Ryan Tannehill, or Russell Wilson. This past season, the Steelers had three different quarterbacks and now they’re thinking about either trading or drafting a new starter, according to the Pittsburgh…
Last year the Pittsburgh Steelers entered the season with Kenny Pickett as the unquestioned starting quarterback. Yet, by the time the playoffs arrived, it was Mason Rudolph starting for the Steelers, with a healthy Pickett playing the role of backup QB. Now Rudolph is set for free agency, leaving the Steelers’ 2022 first-round selection in position to reclaim the starting role, but Mike Tomlin has already indicated the former 20th overall pick will face competition. According to one Pittsburgh insider, the Steelers’ organization is split on what to do at QB this offseason. Longtime Pittsburgh Steelers reporter Gerry Dulac of…
The Steelers are still projected to be $7.44M over the salary cap following a few releases last week. However, The Athletic’s Mark Kaboly isn’t worried about it and believes Pittsburgh could make a big splash in free agency, which starts on March 13 at 4 p.m. ET. “They can create as much money as they need,” Kaboly said on Pittsburgh’s 93.7 The Fan. “You can manipulate four or five contracts to create a bunch of money. Cut a few guys here and there.” Kaboly is right in the fact that the Steelers have several ways they can make more space…
Manchester United have been informed that they could be committing an error that Liverpool could take advantage of. With 10 goals and six assists in his 27 games this season, Joshua Zirkzee has been establishing himself in Italy’s Serie A, but it’s possible that the Old Trafford team have lost interest in the striker. According to the Daily Express, due to Zirkzee’s outstanding performances, he is being considered by a number of Premier League teams, including Manchester City, Arsenal, and Liverpool. However, United emerged as a more likely destination, with Sport1 reporting that Erik ten Hag is reportedly interested in…
If ever there was a time for Liverpool’s frontline department to continue its even spread of goal contributions then this might be it. Saturday’s 4-1 win against Brentford might have taken them temporarily five points clear, while being enough to keep four between them and Manchester City after their 1-1 draw with Chelsea later that day, but it came at quite the cost to Jurgen Klopp. Curtis Jones was the first to succumb to injury, being forced off with a suspected ankle issue before the in-form Diogo Jota suffered the most serious setback of a bruising encounter at the Gtech…
Liverpool will be looking to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League to five points when they host Luton on Wednesday. Due to the Carabao Cup final against Chelsea next weekend, Jurgen Klopp’s side will face the Hatters at Anfield this midweek. Fresh off the back of Saturday’s 4-1 convincing win at Brentford, the Reds can earn their third successive top-flight victory and move further clear of Arsenal in second – while keeping third-place Manchester City, who face Brentford in their game in hand, on Tuesday, at arm’s length. As for Luton, they slumped to their second…
Rasmus Hojlund and Darwin Nunez’s Premier League stats have been compared. Back in the summer of 2022, Uruguayan Nunez joined Liverpool from Portuguese side Benfica in a deal reportedly worth up to €100 million Since then, the 24-year-old has scored 28 goals in 79 matches, including a fine finish during Saturday’s convincing 4-1 win over Brentford. However, many feel Nunez’s numbers should be much higher as he is often criticised for missing big chances. Meanwhile, Danish international Hojlund joined Manchester United last summer for a reported fee of £64 million. Despite his early struggles, Hojlund has now scored in six…
Liverpool are currently searching for Jurgen Klopp’s replacement to take over at the end of the season. Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has proposed a fresh name that might succeed the 56-year-old at Anfield. Following his incredible season at Bayer Leverkusen, it is commonly believed that Xabi Alonso, a former Reds midfielder, is Liverpool’s top pick to succeed Klopp this summer. Die Werkself are now unbeaten in all competitions and are top of the Bundesliga standings, eight points ahead of Bayern Munich, thanks to the Spaniard’s leadership. Alonso’s return to Merseyside at the conclusion of the season is not assured,…
