Before Brian Robinson Jr. ever carried the ball in an NFL regular-season game, he was shot twice. August 28, 2022, out on H Street NE in Washington, two teenagers approached him during an attempted carjacking… Robinson wrestled a gun away from one of them, the other shot him anyway.

Every NFL team tries to build a dynasty and win Super Bowls, but only a select few in NFL history have found such consistency. Over the next five years, these are the teams that have the best chance at ultimate success.

NFL prospects from major programs get most of the attention, but there are numerous examples of players drafted from small schools who have become difference-makers.

Back in August 2025, Brian Robinson Jr. stood at a podium in San Francisco and told reporters exactly what he planned to become. “My job is to complement (McCaffrey) as well as I can and be the best duo in the league.” Bold words from a man traded for a sixth-round pick.

Veteran QB Kirk Cousins is among the top signal callers left on the free agent market, but he might not be close to signing a deal yet. Per Jason La Canfora of SportsBoom, Cousins could wait until “deep into the offseason” to make a decision about where he’s playing in 2026.
