Wes Welker: Broncos ‘in trouble’ if I have to catch 112 passes
During his time with the New England Patriots, Wes Welker was arguably the most reliable receiver in the league. The 112 passes he caught per year proved he was Tom Brady’s favorite target, but that does not mean he will serve the same role for Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos. Welker played alongside Randy Moss for three seasons, but he has never played with as talented a...

New York Jets quarterbacks Mark Sanchez and Geno Smith are now clear where they both stand with the infamous Joe Namath.
Smith has quickly become the people’s champ and the assumed favorite to win the Jets starting job as early as training camp.

Green Bay Packers Trying Mike Neal at Outside Linebacker

Now, the Packers may be trying to maximize that ability because on the first day of organized team activities, the fourth-year defender from Purdue was moved from his customary defensive end position to outside linebacker.
Remembering that it is only OTA’s — the move...

He ran all over teams, putting up over 2000 yards on the ground...
