As many speculated, an injury did have something to do with Kirk Cousins’ sudden drop-off in play. The Falcons quarterback revealed that it happened during Atlanta’s Week 10 loss in New Orleans. This answers a lot of questions. Cousins set a Falcons franchise record against the Buccaneers about a month earlier and threw for nearly 500
The Falcons have two big to-do’s this offseason — improving the defense, particularly the pass rush, and moving Kirk Cousins. Well, what about two birds with one stone in a Myles Garrett trade? The hottest topic around the NFL for most teams isn’t the Super Bowl; it’s the reigning Defensive Player of the Year requesting
Everyone expects the Falcons to take a defensive player with their first-round pick, which would be the first time Terry Fontenot has done so since taking over in Atlanta. The defense needs all of his attention. Fontenot needs to add multiple starters in the secondary and in the trenches, but more than just bodies, getting
After a tumultuous process in which Falcons fans got plenty of laughs, it seems the Saints have found their next head coach. New Orleans targeted a number of candidates, but for one reason or another, they all decided against taking the job. Aaron Glenn chose the infamously poorly run Jets, while Kliff Kingsbury and Joe

A Myles Garrett trade is a possibility for the Falcons and probably the other 30 teams in the NFL, but the big question is: how much is it going to cost? When the Raiders traded Khalil Mack to the Bears in 2018, he was 27 years old and garnered two first-round picks from Chicago. Garrett
Myles Garrett has officially requested a trade from the Browns, according to a statement obtained by NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport. “As a kid dreaming of the NFL, all I focused on was the ultimate goal of winning a Super Bowl — and that goal fuels me today more than ever,” Garrett wrote. “My love
The Atlanta Hawks haven’t made a move ahead of Thursday’s NBA Trade Deadline, but the two blockbuster trades that did happen will have a profound impact on the club. In the less stunning of the two, the Kings agreed to move De’Aaron Fox to the Spurs as a part of a larger three-team trade. Here
I said it in August, and it’ll be put to the test this Braves season: Spencer Schwellenbach’s ascent has softened the blow of Max Fried’s departure. At the time, Schwellenbach was coming off an outing in which he recorded nine strikeouts in 6.2 innings of two-run ball in a 3-2 series-clinching win against the rival
