7/1/2026 |  NFL's mysterious one-point safety: The bizarre scoring play that's never happened and how it finally could (CBS Sports) If you've watched the NFL for any length of time, you've almost certainly seen every possible scoring play.
Well, except for one, and that's because it's never happened before: the one-point safety.

6/30/2026 |  2026 NFL offseason grades: Draft, trades, more moves by team (ESPN) Free agency is done, the draft is behind us, and we're through the flurry of post-June 1 trades. It's time to hand out 2026 offseason grades for every NFL team.
We'll evaluate the actual decisions each team has made during the offseason. This is not a measurement of talent gained or lost. That's a valid exercise, but a different one. For example, the Raiders have unquestionably improved their roster between the Super Bowl and now. But did they make good team-building choices to get there? I have doubts.
