His time without a team may not last much longer.
In the Super Bowl era (1966 to present) of the NFL, a total of 30 QBs have rushed for 100 yards or more in a regular-season game. How many of the 30 can you name in five minutes?

The NFL Draft always delivers many twists and turns that leave fans and analysts scratching their heads. This list isn't looking at hindsight and finding the biggest busts in history.

A recent report suggested that the Washington Commanders could view former Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott as an eventual replacement for current Washington head coach Dan Quinn.
This late into the offseason, it’s a little odd that Deebo Samuel has yet to find a landing spot. A second-round pick out of South Carolina by the 49ers in 2017, he blossomed into a star in San Francisco, peaking in 2021 with 77 receptions for 1,405 yards and six touchdowns.
