The Pittsburgh Steelers have made a significant addition to their quarterback roster by selecting Will Howard from Ohio State in the sixth round of the draft. Joining Mason Rudolph and former Kansas State teammate Skylar Thompson, Howard represents the team’s first quarterback pick since Kenny Pickett in 2022. The Steelers plan to bring four quarterbacks to training camp, leaving one spot open, potentially for free agent Aaron Rodgers, whose future remains uncertain. Coach Mike Tomlin expressed enthusiasm about the possibility of adding Rodgers, highlighting the productive discussions the team has had with him.

Howard brings a championship pedigree that impressed the Steelers during the playoffs, throwing for over 630 yards and five touchdowns while completing 74% of his passes. He completed 73% of all throws during the season, showcasing his accuracy and ability under pressure. Offensive coordinator Arthur Smith noted Howard's performance in critical moments, particularly in the national championship game. The Steelers also drafted fellow Ohio State player Jack Sawyer, adding to the excitement and camaraderie for Howard as they join forces in Pittsburgh.

The New England Patriots have made a significant addition to their offensive line by selecting LSU's Will Campbell as the fourth overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Campbell, a three-year starter at left tackle, has been a subject of intense debate among scouts largely due to his arm length, which measured 32⅝ inches at the NFL Combine and 33 inches at LSU's Pro Day. Despite these concerns, Patriots coach Mike Vrabel expressed confidence in Campbell's ability to excel at left tackle, citing his impressive performance in the SEC.

During his last two seasons at LSU, Campbell showcased exceptional pass protection, allowing only two sacks. At 6-foot-6 and 319 pounds, he possesses ideal size and speed for the position, clocking a sub-5-second 40-yard dash. NFL analyst Daniel Jeremiah believes Campbell has the potential to be a long-term starter. With Campbell now at the top of the depth chart, veteran Vederian Lowe may transition to a backup role, especially after the acquisition of Morgan Moses on the right side.

Dynasty fantasy football demands foresight; evaluating players before their value declines is crucial. Identifying red flags early allows for timely trades, preventing losses from plummeting values. This strategy is applicable to identifying breakout candidates, as players can have inconsistent production year over year. Notably, Kyren Williams from the Los Angeles Rams is suggested as a sell candidate due to diminished efficiency, averaging 4.1 yards per carry in 2024, with potential competition from Blake Corum. Conversely, Rashid Shaheed of the New Orleans Saints shows promise as a buy, potentially emerging as a top target for quarterback Derek Carr. Lastly, players such as Jayden Reed from the Packers and Ricky Pearsall from the 49ers are evaluated, with Reed advised against retaining due to struggles against man coverage.

The bond between a player and a coach is unparalleled, nurtured through dedication and shared experiences. Recently, Ron Dugans, Florida State's former wide receivers coach, attended a game to support his former players, running back Trey Benson and defensive back Jammie Robinson, now with the Arizona Cardinals. Despite Benson's absence due to an ankle injury, Dugans’ presence highlighted the lasting relationships formed in sports.

The Cardinals achieved a remarkable 47-24 win over the San Francisco 49ers. Robinson, who joined Arizona after a brief stint with the Carolina Panthers, did not participate in the game. Dugans had also reconnected with former Miami running back DeeJay Dallas during this visit.

Benson's rookie season concluded with 291 rushing yards and a touchdown, showcasing his potential for future contributions to the Cardinals. Meanwhile, Robinson's future with the team remains uncertain as he navigates his recent transition from the Panthers, where he had minimal impact.

Having worked closely with both players at Florida State, Dugans's connection to them remains strong despite his recent departure from the coaching staff. The Seminoles, under Dugans's guidance, celebrated significant victories, including a Cheez-It Bowl win and an ACC Championship.

As Florida State moves forward with new coaching appointments, including Tim Harris Jr. as the new wide receivers coach, Dugans's next steps in his coaching career are still a mystery. His extensive experience across various programs and the NFL positions him well for future opportunities in football coaching.

The Carolina Panthers are set to face the Arizona Cardinals in their last home game of the season, hoping to secure a win after a challenging stretch.

Good news for the Panthers includes the return of key players like Jadeveon Clowney and A'Shawn Robinson, who were previously questionable. However, they will miss center Cade Mays due to an illness, with Brady Christensen expected to step in.

The game kicks off at 1 p.m. EST and will be broadcast on FOX.
