Tom Brady's dual life as Fox analyst and Raiders owner has him watching opponents from a headset as the Raiders face Chiefs and Eagles later this season. The NFL says remote production meetings are allowed but on-site access remains restricted, prompting debate about competitive edge versus access. Coaches and executives split on whether Brady’s involvement creates a real edge or a perception problem, and the league could refine guardrails at the upcoming owners meeting.

Tampa Bay opened 2025 with two road wins, sitting atop the NFC South as Bowles and Mayfield push a high-tempo attack forward. It’s the third straight 2-0 start for the duo, a rare streak, but midseason slumps remain a recurring risk. With injuries lingering, the schedule turns brutal: Jets, Eagles, Seahawks, 49ers, Lions will test sustainability. Fantasy notes point to Week 3 pickups Romeo Doubs and Zach Ertz, plus mentions of a Vikings running back reunion and a Texas Tech–Utah NFL Draft duel shaping wider fantasy angles.

Jalen Mills lands on the Texans' practice squad, adding veteran depth as Houston searches for stability after an 0-2 start. Mills owns a nine-year résumé with 115 games and 91 starts, eight interceptions, and 59 passes defended, offering versatile coverage and run support for a developing secondary. Houston shuffled its practice squad again, cutting Silas Bolden and Jaylon Thomas to align with Week 3 needs. The move signals a measured, cost-controlled path to revamping a struggling defense.
