Bill Streicher-Imagn Images There appears to be a situation worth keeping an eye on in Washington right now. Terry McLaurin just sounded the alarm after latest Commanders contract update – Mike Luciano, RiggosRag.com Entering the final year of his contract, McLaurin is ready for an extension. The main reason the Washington Commanders are viewed as one of the more viable contenders across the NFL landscape at this moment is the electric passing game Kliff Kingsbury has installed. The connection between quarterback Jayden Daniels and receiver Terry McLaurin forms the backbone of this attack. McLaurin is trying to earn his last big payday after a dominant 2024 season, and he is not above making people uncomfortable in the name of trying to force Adam Peters’ hand. The main reason the Washington Commanders are viewed as one of the more viable contenders across the NFL landscape at this moment is the electric passing game Kliff Kingsbury has installed. The connection between quarterback Jayden Daniels and receiver Terry McLaurin forms the backbone of this attack. McLaurin is trying to earn his last big payday after a dominant 2024 season, and he is not above making people uncomfortable in the name of trying to force Adam Peters’ hand. According to Jordan Schultz, McLaurin has made his frustration with the lack of a long-term deal palpably clear. After showing up to voluntary workouts, McLaurin left the event early and has left many wondering if he will show up to the team’s mandatory minicamp amid this squabble. McLaurin is entering the final year of his contract, and there haven’t been very many talks between he and Washington as it pertains to a long-term contract. The Deebo Samuel trade has likely muddied the waters a bit, and it has put Washington in an awkward place with one of their best receivers ever. Terry McLaurin frustrated with Commanders not giving him long-term contract McLaurin was a good soldier for many years in Washington, constantly piling up 1,000-yard seasons despite below-average quarterback play. McLaurin’s 82 catches and 1,096 yards in 2024 were about on par with his usual averages, but he managed to snag 13 touchdowns after never having scored seven before this year. The Commanders still have a few years before they have to pay Daniels what will assuredly be an eye-watering contract, which should free them up to spend money on McLaurin. Samuel is a solid short-term addition, but this front office is making a severe error if they are putting off talks with McLaurin due to the Deebo acquisition. Donovan McNabb says the Eagles losing Andy Reid was a bigger mistake than the Giants losing Saquon Barkley – WFN.com Philadelphia’s loss is greater than New York’s loss. Saquon Barkley is the first Philadelphia Eagle to appear on the cover of the Madden NFL video game since former quarterback Donovan McNabb in 2005. Unlike McNabb, Barkley is not a homegrown Eagle drafted and brought up by the organization. To some, Barkley is a defector, as a former member of the rival New York Giants. The decision by the Giants to let Barkley leave the organization has been criticized as one of the worst mistakes in recent history after the running back led the Eagles to the Super Bowl and broke the franchise rushing record. “They made a real big mistake, and I think it’s going to cost them a little bit,” McNabb told Fox News Digital of the Giants. To McNabb, the Giants’ decision to let Barkley go may not be as bad a decision made by the Eagles over a decade earlier. McNabb, who played his entire Eagles career under former Philadelphia head coach and current Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid, believes his former team made a mistake by firing Reid after the 2012 season. The Eagles traded McNabb to the rival Washington Redskins (now the Commanders) three years before that. “There’s a couple mistakes they made. I was first and Andy followed,” McNabb said. “Now you sit back, and you start to watch, and you see how [Reid’s] career has gone to a different level.” Reid has won three Super Bowls with the Chiefs and gone to two more after reaching one and losing it with the Eagles. Reid is also credited with drafting and developing Chiefs superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes. To McNabb, the “mistake” of the Eagles firing Reid was bigger than that of the Giants letting go of Barkley. “To be honest with you, I’ll say the Eagles losing Andy,” McNabb said when asked the bigger mistake between the two. Giants QB Russell Wilson: Jaxson Dart’s presence ‘doesn’t change’ my approach – Kevin Patra, NFL.com Russell is still has a “business as usual” approach. For the second consecutive year, Russell Wilson signed with a club only to see a younger quarterback added. This year in New York, it was Jaxson Dart, a rookie first-round quarterback with the upside to take the Giants’ starting job away eventually. Wilson, who has been taking most of the first-team reps at OTAs, said Dart’s presence doesn’t alter his approach. “It doesn’t change anything at all,” Wilson said via the team’s official transcript. “I think the biggest thing is for me is just being my best every day, leading. I always think about just leading everybody, just leading every room, every moment, every time I get to step between the white lines and the opportunity of that.” Wilson inked a one-year deal worth up to $21 million and was anointed the starter by coach Brian Daboll. The contract, coupled with Dart’s presence, underscores that the 36-year-old QB is simply a bridge. The question is, when does Dart’s future start? Week 1? Week 10? Week 15? Week 18? 2026? A lot of that might have to do with how Wilson performs, starting with next week’s minicamp. For his part, Wilson had nothing negative to say about the talented rookie quarterback. “Jaxson’s been great, man,” Wilson said while speaking to reporters for the first time since the draft.

Despite the team’s challenges, Aubrey’s remarkable performance offers fans a compelling reason for optimism and hope. In 2024, Aubrey demonstrated remarkable leg strength and precision, successfully making 40 out of 47 field goal attempts for an impressive 86% success rate. He also nailed all 30 of his extra point attempts which is indicative of his accuracy and ability to remain consistent. A standout moment came when he set an NFL single-season record by hitting 14 field goals from 50 yards or more, including a franchise-best 65-yarder against the Baltimore Ravens.

He earned his second consecutive Pro Bowl selection and was named a second-team All-Pro in 2024. His consistent excellence has positioned him as one of the league’s top kickers, leading to his ranking as the No. 1 fantasy football kicker heading into the 2025 season. He not only scored 157 points last year, which ranks the most in team history, he also the second-most from the season before at 150 points. “He’s like the @StephenCurry30 of kickers.

His dedication to the team and consistent performance make him a valuable asset as the Cowboys look to solidify their special teams unit. The Cowboys have a habit of finding absolute gems when it comes to the kicker position and Aubrey is no different. Both sides desire a long-term relationship and will look to seal deal this year. #Cowboys Brandon Aubrey has 76 field goals, the most of any kicker in NFL history during their first two seasons, per @Stathead. Aubrey needs 22 to have the most in NFL history across a player’s first three seasons. Averaging 38 per year, he should break that record in 2025. pic.twitter.com/ZPik2cTGmV — Brandon Loree (@Brandoniswrite) May 27, 2025 Outlook for 2025This is one of the easier outlooks to predict thanks to Aubrey’s proven track record and commitment to excellence. Cowboys fans can look forward to continued reliability in the kicking game and that includes kickoffs. His ability to convert long-distance field goals and maintain his composure under pressure will be crucial as the team navigates what could see some closely matched contests.

Ken Blaze-Imagn Images Dak Prescott remains the longest-tenured starting quarterback in the NFL with his particular team. This week. Aaron Rodgers finally decided to join the Pittsburgh Steelers, something that many football fans had been expecting for quite a while now. Rodgers has obviously been in the NFL for a very long time. In fact, he was drafted (now officially) over 20 years ago by the Green Bay Packers. It feels like even longer since Ted Thompson and Co. shocked Brett Favre with the decision the way that they did. When we get to Week 1 there is no question that Rodgers will be the starting quarterback across the league with the most time served, but given that Pittsburgh is now his third team (in four years), he obviously is no longer a part of the team with which he made his mark and won his lone Super Bowl (now almost 15 years ago by the way). There are several other quarterbacks in the league, starters and otherwise, who are longer in the tooth like Rodgers. Players like Russell Wilson, Kirk Cousins and even Joe Flacco are still hanging around. Narrowing things a bit though, if we focus on which team has the longest-tenured starter in terms of time served with his specific team then as it has been for some time now the answer remains Dak Prescott. It is rather wild to think that Prescott has been the Cowboys starting quarterback longer than any other quarterback has for their current team across the league, but that speaks to the turnover rate that we tend to see. Players who come close to him as far as still being with their teams are Patrick Mahomes with the Kansas City Chiefs (2017), Josh Allen with the Buffalo Bills (2018) and Lamar Jackson with the Baltimore Ravens (2018). Matthew Stafford represents a player with far more NFL experience than Dak, but he joined the Los Angeles Rams in 2021 which was five years after the Cowboys drafted Prescott. Similarly, Jared Goff technically has two days on Dak in terms of NFL experience as he was the number one overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, but he was a part of that Stafford trade and has been with the Detroit Lions for the last four years. Time can be a funny thing in the NFL, but no starting quarterback has spent more of it with their current team than Dak Prescott has with the Dallas Cowboys.

After showing flashes in his first year, Bland was given more opportunities as a starter and had one of the craziest breakout seasons for a player with such low expectations. He would go on to set an NFL record with five pick-sixes in a single season and would haul in a total of nine interceptions, which led both Dallas and league that year. That monumental season would see Bland get All-Pro and Pro Bowl honors and finish fifth in the Defensive Player of The Year voting, above players like Fred Warner or Roquan Smith. His elite ball skills, instincts, and ability to read quarterbacks made him a game-changing presence in the Cowboys’ secondary, helping solidify a dominant Dallas defense. He is now set to continue off the back of a career defining season after hitting setbacks in 2024, which saw him miss the majority of the year with a foot injury and not start a game until Week 12.

He was never called to the NFL Scouting Combine, and when his name was called in the fifth round of the NFL Draft, it left many draft analysts scratching their head. This makes his rapid rise to NFL stardom one of the more remarkable underdog stories in Cowboys and NFL history. What an amazing moment in history. We was lucky to be right there in AT&T this day.

Photo by Kyle Ross/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images It would be incredible if Damone Clark took another step forward this season. The Dallas Cowboys added veterans Jack Sanborn and Kenneth Murray to their linebacker room in free agency, and both are expected to play a lot in 2025. Plus, they’re looking for a leap in year two from Marist Liufau who showed a ton of promise as a rookie last season. However, going into a contract year, Damone Clark is still a question mark. Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer talked to the media on Tuesday. When speaking on Clark, he gave the former fifth-round pick some high praise in regards to what he’s seen this offseason. I think the way he’s diagnosing things looks quicker to me than maybe in the past. Maybe a little more command of it. The physical traits have always been there and I think the connection he has with Flus and Borgonzi … that’s important. When the Cowboys hired Mike Zimmer to be the defensive coordinator a year ago, he admitted that he had to blend things together a bit and that hurt the entire unit. Clark struggled big time in Zimmer’s scheme to the point where he was an afterthought early on in the season. Clark would only play 168 snaps all year and produced 28 tackles. Matt Eberflus is the new head man on the defensive side of the ball for the Cowboys. For years, he’s built a reputation for being a guru of the linebacker position. With DeMarvion Overshown likely being out until at minimum mid-season, Clark becomes an even more important part of the linebacker rotation. Getting him back to performing at a high level will not only bode well for this season, but it could give the Cowboys quite the room for the future with Overshown and Liufau if he’s brought back in 2026. All of this has to be taken with a grain of salt with it just being OTAs. Once training camp comes and the pads come on, then it will be clear where Clark is in Eberflus’ scheme and if he can be a significant contributor this season. Clark has talent. That has never been the issue. In 2023, he registered over 100 tackles under Dan Quinn. Thankfully, he won’t be asked to be the main guy under Eberflus but just a solid and reliable rotational piece.

Photo by Cooper Neill/Getty Images What are you expecting Micah Parsons’ role to be in 2025? All eyes are on Micah Parsons, though that’s hardly unusual. During the season, it’s usually opposing offensive coaches and players who constantly obsess over Parsons, where he’s at and who’s tasked with trying (and often failing) to stop him. Right now, all eyes are on his money, specifically the lack thereof. Parsons’ rookie deal is set to expire after this upcoming season, and extension talks have been slow thus far. To no one’s surprise, Parsons has opted to skip voluntary workouts, though he recently pledged to show up for mandatory OTA’s, avoiding any potential fines or added drama. While everyone is focused on whether or not a deal will happen – spoiler alert: it will, but not before a lot more hand-wringing – the bigger question regarding the superstar defender should be focused on what his role will be in 2025. Since entering the league in 2021, Parsons has enjoyed a sort of hybrid role for the Cowboys. While his elite pass rush skills have meant that he’s going after the quarterback on the majority of snaps, it hasn’t kept him from being moved around the defense like a chess piece. When Dan Quinn was in town, Parsons lined up quite literally everywhere. He spent most of his time on the line of scrimmage, but lined up somewhere different every snap. He would frequently start at off-ball linebacker too, before blitzing at the snap. Quinn even had Parsons lined up out wide as a defensive back on a couple isolated occasions. Parsons’ role became a bit more defined with Mike Zimmer last year, but not restrictively so. While the 2024 season saw Parsons’ highest percentage of snaps on the line of scrimmage, Zimmer essentially built his scheme around Parsons having the discretion to line up wherever he wanted, with the star pass rusher saying this early in the season: The fact that I got the creativity to control things where I know I got to be on my A-game always because I got these other guys depending on me now to like controlling that [alignment]. It kind of gets me more excited, it gets me more into it. It gets that drive, that hunger just a little bit more. Now I feel like I just can’t let this guy [Zimmer] down. He’s giving me the keys to the system. Parsons still primarily played out on the edges, where he’s most comfortable and most effective, but the freedom to move around at will helped unlock a different animal for the Lion. It became common for Parsons to work as a linebacker mugging the A-gap on third downs, a popular front for Zimmer. He even took 17 charted snaps at defensive tackle, an alignment so unique that offensive linemen didn’t quite know what to do with it. Zimmer is gone, though, and he’s replaced by Matt Eberflus. While there are some philosophical similarities between Eberflus and Zimmer – they both come from 4-3 backgrounds and call a lot of zone coverage – there are more differences than similarities. Eberflus has generally been more rigid in his schemes. While Zimmer is hellbent on doing anything and everything to confuse the quarterback – sometimes at the cost of confusing his own players, too – Eberflus has always prioritized simplicity in scheme, preferring to let his players’ natural athleticism do the work for them. That begs the question of how Eberflus will deploy Parsons. In looking at Eberflus’ defenses in the past, the most we’ve seen in terms of creativity with his pass rushers is having hybrid defensive ends who shift inside on passing downs. Hardly akin to the multiplicity that Parsons is capable of. That said, Eberflus has never worked with a player like Parsons. Earlier in the offseason, Eberflus was asked about his plans for the perennial All Pro. While he didn’t give anything specific – not atypical for coaches in February – Eberflus did say this: “Micah is a premier pass rusher. We’re going to use him that way, certainly, and he’s one heck of an athlete that can do a lot of different things for us on defense. And when you have a guy like that, you want to be able to utilize his skill set. As we’re around him more, we’ll see what that skill set is, and really take advantage of that. … He knows that we’ll just make him in the best light that he can be in terms of position, in terms of pass rush, and really utilizing what he does best, and that’s rushing the passer.” Eberflus seems to be hinting at still preserving some of Parsons’ positional flexibility, but did keep coming back to his view of Parsons’ value really coming in the pass rush aspect. Another key bread crumb from his comments: “as we’re around him more.” Thus far, Eberflus hasn’t been around Parsons much. Therefore, the process of figuring out how to move him around, where he’s most comfortable, and how the scheme should change as a result of that position flex has been delayed somewhat. It doesn’t help that the Cowboys didn’t retain any defensive coaches from last year, aside from former safety Darian Thompson, who is assisting with the secondary. Eberflus won’t have any other coaches to rely on for intel about how to best maximize Parsons’ unique abilities, just the players and the film. Parsons is likely to still be a one-man wrecking crew even if Eberflus’ plans for him are vanilla compared to recent seasons, but it’s something worth considering. Given how much of Parsons’ tremendous value stems from the fact that he can beat you from anywhere, it’s at least a little concerning that we don’t really know how he’ll be used in this new scheme.

Photo by Perry Knotts/Getty Images This ranking feels pretty unfair to DaRon Bland. The Dallas Cowboys had a bad 2024 season overall. Expectations were that the team was talented enough to win the Super Bowl—maybe not, but at least compete for a Wild Card playoff spot. There’s no question the front office could have done more to set the team up better last season, but injuries played a significant role in last year’s downfall. The Cowboys seem to be paying for their woebegone year in Pro Football Focus’s annual positional power rankings of NFL players, with many from Dallas absent entirely from the lists. In their latest ranking of the league’s Top 32 cornerbacks heading into 2025, All-Pro cornerback DaRon Bland was sitting at the bottom. 32. DaRon Bland, Dallas Cowboys Bland missed the first 10 games of the 2024 season due to injury after a 2023 campaign in which he broke the NFL record for pick-sixes. His PFF advanced coverage grade wasn’t great, even though his standard PFF coverage grade over the past two seasons ranks sixth. His 71.4 PFF coverage grade in 2024 was solid, but he failed to log an interception after his record-breaking season. 2025 should be a good indicator of whether Bland can continue his playmaking ways. Quarterback Dak Prescott was not the only star player missing for Dallas most of the season. Bland was available for just seven games due to a stress fracture in his foot at the end of training camp. There were glimpses of his old self during games last year, particularly against Mike Evans and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but Bland spent most of the season regaining his footing. Clearly, by PFF’s metrics, Bland did not have the same season he had in 2023 that made him a Defensive Player of the Year finalist. In the same list a year ago, PFF had Bland ranked as the 31st cornerback, even after his record-setting pick-six season. The rankings seem more about ‘what have you done for me lately,’ but even in the write-up, there is a tip of the cap to who the player Bland used to be, saying, “his standard PFF coverage grade over the past two seasons ranks sixth. Bland has proven to be one of the better cornerbacks throughout most of his three seasons in the NFL, so a down year in 2024 should not weigh too heavily against him, especially when the expectation is that he will return to form a year after his injury. Year four seems critical not only for Bland’s outside perception but also for himself financially as he heads into the final year of his rookie contract.

Ed Mulholland-Imagn Images What do you think of Aaron Rodgers joining the Pittsburgh Steelers? One of the most predictable things of the entire offseason happened on Thursday when it was announced that, at long last, Aaron Rodgers is officially now set to join the Pittsburgh Steelers. It took until June for this to happen, but as noted it was always predictable that Aaron was going to wind up in the Steel City. Amazingly the Steelers play the New York Jets in the first week of the season so we will get to see Rodgers against his former team immediately. The Steelers are the team who the Green Bay Packers beat in Super Bowl LV under Mike McCarthy, so Pittsburgh fans now have to root for the man who ruined one of their better days. We can understand that sentiment what with the McCarthy element. For our Friday discussion here at BTB we want to know what you think of the Rodgers’ signing? Is Pittsburgh now on the right track? Is this inconsequential? Let us know in the comments below!
