Some days in New Orleans, Zack Baun would go home & cry. Others, he'd sit in his car in the Saints parking lot & sigh: This is going to be a long year. But after 4 years under the radar, Baun's found his stride with Eagles. What changed? I asked him 👇🏽 sports.yahoo.com/where-did-this…

I talked to Steelers rookie QB Will Howard today about where he has the most room for growth and he broke it down in depth. "I have power, but sometimes I have these movements that I do that are a little power-zapping," Will told me. Full 👇

The Bengals gave Shemar Stewart an extra $550K of guaranteed money in addition to the 50 percent of his signing bonus they give to their first round picks as compromise for the new language they are adding to the contract

Every one of Cincinnati's draft picks are now in the fold. The Bengals have agreed to terms with DE Shemar Stewart on his rookie deal, per @AdamSchefter.

Aaron Rodgers and DK Metcalf are eager to build chemistry — including by sharing a bathroom for the next month. It's all part of the bonding plan Rodgers hopes will make the Steelers one of "10 to 12" teams that can win it all. @JoriEpstein from Latrobe sports.yahoo.com/nfl/article/fr…

When Aaron Rodgers realized toilet in his & DK Metcalf's suite flushed loudly, QB told WR: "At night, if we got to piss, just don't flush the toilet." 9:30 Wednesday night, DK texted: "You asleep yet?" Aaron wasn't. "Bet. I'm about to flush the toilet." sports.yahoo.com/nfl/article/fr…

Extra credit to DK for giving me way more info than I expected 😂 honesty for the win

Aaron Rodgers says most teams enter season believing in Super Bowl chance. "But I think that there's really only 6 to 8 that really have a legitimate chance. Sometimes it's 10 to 12 & there's teams that surprise you. I would say, on paper, we're probably one of those 10 to 12."

Aaron Rodgers & D.K. Metcalf are suitemates at training camp. When D.K. got here, he heard a knock, thinking it was from his bedroom door — turned out to be Rodgers knocking on the door of the bathroom which the two are sharing 😂

Mike Tomlin says there will be times he allocates reps based on what players need, which means he will take reps from Aaron Rodgers & give them to Steelers rookie QB Will Howard

Strong stuff from @JoriEpstein at Bengals camp on the Trey Hendrickson and Shemar Stewart holdouts, what's going into them, and how other key figures on the team are feeling about them sports.yahoo.com/nfl/article/as…

Aaron Rodgers went 1/3, including the opening play INT, and forced an offside in his first four team reps. Mason Rudolph then came in and went 4/4 with the second team.

Aaron Rodgers’ first pass of Steelers team period hits the hands of…LB Patrick Queen. Defense and fans go crazy at the INT.

NFLPA executive committee member Cam Heyward says it’s been a “whirlwind” trying to “remedy” the union fallout amid loss of executive director Lloyd Howell & chief strategy officer J.C. Tretter. “The players are counting on us,” Heyward says.

What, exactly, are Bengals and first-round rookie Shemar Stewart debating in contract dispute? Here's what I gathered from visiting Cincy on training camp tour... sports.yahoo.com/nfl/article/as…

As Bengals open training camp without Trey Hendrickson and Shemar Stewart, Ja’Marr Chase sees “a lot of feelings involved,” he tells me. Latest from Cincy on why two edges are holding out—and how team is responding 👇🏽 sports.yahoo.com/nfl/article/as…

The silence and smirk was LOUD....

CeeDee Lamb when asked about Micah Parsons’ contract situation: “Obviously playing this media game with Jerry is not the best. It’s not fun. It’s not recommended. (Micah) knows what he brings to the table. He should get what he deserves. I’m not indulging in any of the craziness…

Bengals OC Dan Pitcher is committed to making Chase Brown a superstar this season 🚀 (via @JoriEpstein)
