Howie Roseman: The bottom line is winning, Jalen Hurts and Nick Sirianni do that

-
Eagles General Manager Howie Roseman says Philadelphia has a starting quarterback and a head coach who do what they're supposed to do: Win. Roseman said on WIP that he doesn't agree with the perception that quarterback Jalen Hurts is "on the clock" and is heading into a make-or-break year to remain the franchise quarterback. "No I don't agree with that," Roseman said. Roseman said Hurts and head coach Nick Sirianni are proven winners, and that's what the franchise needs. In games started by Hurts since Sirianni became head coach, the Eagles are 56-22 in the regular season and 6-4 in the postseason, including winning a Super Bowl. "I think the bottom line for us, in the position we're in, and really for all our fan base, is winning football games," Roseman said. "And all [Hurts] does is win football games, and that includes our head coach as well. For me, the barometer is winning football games. In terms of what Jalen does, he'...

Saints sign former Browns, Tennessee Vols WR to practice squad

-
This could be interesting. The New Orleans Saints are up to seven wide receivers between their practice squad and 53-man roster after signing former Cleveland Browns third-round pick Cedric Tillman. And we're still waiting to find out of Kevin Austin Jr. cleared waivers and will be returning to the practice squad, too. But what's Tillman's story? Tillman, 26, played college football at Tennessee (arriving in 2018, one year after Alvin Kamara turned pro) and was prolific in Josh Heupel's wide-open passing attack. He broke out in 2021 with 64 catches for 1,081 yards and a dozen touchdowns before taking as step back in 2022 while dealing with an ankle injury. The Saints passed on him to pick running back Kendre Miller at No. 71 overall in the 2023 draft, but he went off the board to Cleveland just a few slots later at No. 74. Injuries and inconsistent play have been a problem for Tillman in the NFL. He's been limited to 38 of 51 possible games since the Browns draft...

PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA - DECEMBER 15: Kaleb Johnson #20 of the Pittsburgh Steelers runs prior to an NFL football game against the Miami Dolphins at Pennsylvania on December 15, 2025 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. (Photo by Michael Owens/Getty Images) | Getty Images The Green Bay Packers have added depth to their running back room on Sunday, as they’ve traded for former Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kaleb Johnson. Johnson, a 23-year-old, was a third-round pick for the Steelers coming out of Iowa last season. Johnson ended up buried on Pittsburgh’s dept chart, though, following the team’s signings of Rico Dowdle and Travis Homer behind starter Jaylen Warren. As a rookie, the former All-American carried the ball just 28 times for 69 yards (2.5 yards per attempt) in the regular season, good for the third-most attempts on the team behind Warren and Kenneth Gainwell. Funny enough, he was actually fourth on the Steelers in rushing yards last year, as tight end Jonnu Smith had nine carri...

For a large majority of the roster, the Dallas Cowboys game against the Saints was simply another chance to build momentum heading into the regular season. For others, every snap carried extra weight as the uncertainty of job security hung in the balance. The Cowboys had already put together two strong preseason performances, but one final opportunity remained for players to either solidify their standing or make a late push before the roster is finalized. Against New Orleans, both sides of the Cowboys front lines had their struggles, which placed additional pressure on second-level defenders as well as skill players alike. Somehow, Dallas was able to take the game down to the wire which eventually ended in their first preseason loss. With the games now complete, here are the biggest winners and losers from the Cowboys preseason finale against the Saints. Reading a syndication? For the latest version of this article, click here.
