Star Vikings WR wants a new contract, absent from OTAs After two other top NFC receivers signed large contract extensions this offseason, Vikings star wideout Justin Jefferson is looking for his. Jefferson, the three-time All-Pro, was not at the team facility for the start of OTAs, according to ESPN. Jefferson is absent while he continues to negotiate an extension ahead of the final year of his rookie contract in 2023. He’s set to make $19.7 million on that contract this year. That figure, though, is well below what other receivers of his ilk have received this offseason. The Lions’ Amon-Ra…
Lions DT Brodric Martin clearly followed the Alim McNeill offseason plan Teammates can be great examples, and Lions defensive tackle Brodric Martin apparently followed through on one he said he noticed. Heading into his third season, Detroit Lions defensive tackle Alim McNeill made an effort to change his physique and up his game. He greatly reduced his weight and body fat percentage, and it paid off with a breakthrough campaign last season. Brodric Martin was healthy all season but barely played as rookie (three games, 28 defensive snaps), as could have been predicted given he was something of a developmental…
Detroit Lions Trade Proposal Adds Defense’s Missing Piece The Detroit Lions are considered a Super Bowl favorite and boast a roster loaded with young talent on both sides of the ball, thanks to general manager Brad Holmes‘ strong drafting in recent years. Detroit Lions, Brian Branch Detroit Lions safety Brian Branch (32) tackles Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson (3) during the second half at Ford Field in Detroit on Saturday, Dec. 16, 2023. One of the Lions’ biggest draft weekend coups over the past two years was the addition of former University of Alabama standout Brian Branch at safety. Branch,…
The multi-million pound Man Utd blow that could see stars flood for exit this summer Man Utd are set to see a huge turnover in playing staff this summer In a modern sense, it was a new low, even for a club who continue to push the boundaries and plumb the depths of credibility. Manchester United, once the fearsome kings of English football, recorded their worst ever Premier League finish this season, limping to the shrugging anonymity of eighth spot after a campaign that could, at best, be described as ‘patchy’. The Red Devils presumably began 2023/24 with lofty ambitions.…
HOJLUND’S IMPRESSIVE GOALSCORING FEAT Rasmus Hojlund notched his 16th goal of the season as Manchester United rounded off our 2023/24 Premier League campaign with a 2-0 win at Brighton on Sunday. The Dane smashed home past Jason Steele to successfully follow up on his strike against Newcastle United earlier in the week at Old Trafford. Finding his feet at the right time, Rasmus will now be targeting his first piece of silverware as a Red, following his summer switch from Atalanta. The 21-year-old leads our goalscoring charts as we head into the Emirates FA Cup final with Manchester City at…
Man Utd want to sign £70m star who could help turn Hojlund into a monster The United target could be their own version of Phil Foden. Finishing eighth in the table for a club like Manchester United is a disgrace, but arguably the worst statistic to come out of this season is their goal difference of -1. The defence has been highlighted as a big issue, but the attack has also been uninspiring, and despite the performances of Amad Diallo in recent weeks – who scored against Newcastle – the right-wing role has been a problem position this season. Amad…
Regarding his Liverpool admission, David Beckham predicts that he will be “get killed by Manchester United fans.” David Beckham says he’s ‘going to get killed by Manchester United fans’ after revealing his ‘love’ for Jurgen Klopp and admitting he is ‘sad’ to see him leave Liverpool. Klopp, who led Liverpool to multiple trophies following his arrival at Anfield in 2015, left the club following the season-finale on Sunday. Across his nine-year spell at Liverpool, Klopp ended the club’s 30-year wait for a Premier League title and also lifted the Champions League trophy and multiple domestic cups. The German, who is being replaced by former Feyenoord boss Arne Slot, will go…

News broke that Adrian Newey, Red Bull’s creative designer, would be leaving the team in 2025, which was the biggest shock.
