Josh Jacobs' return date has been revealed
Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs appears to have a date circled for his return. Jacobs will be activated from the Commissioner Exempt list on Monday, according to multiple reports.

Former NFL standout shares his Jalen Hurts conspiracy theory Original
When it comes to quarterback Jalen Hurts’ blood clot, at least one former NFL standout thinks that there is more going on than publicly meets the eye.

Troy Aikman’s future takes another interesting twist Original
Troy Aikman may have a full array of options available to him this offseason, both in and out of the booth.

That means Aikman could theoretically have his choice of front office jobs in the offseason if he wanted to pursue one.

Another top NFL analyst could change networks this offseason
Olsen would be hitting the market at a good time for him. CBS is already in the market for a new top analyst, and Olsen held talks with them two years ago. There is also the sudden possibility that ESPN might need a new top analyst to pair with Joe Buck on “Monday Night Football.” Olsen is also not the typical broadcasting free agent. He spent time on FOX’s No. 1 crew during Tom Brady’s one-year sabbatical, and won plaudits for his work there.
