He’s listed as questionable to return but has next to no chance to see another snap in a meaningless game for LA. Entering the game as the Rams’ top back with Kyren Williams inactive alongside other LA starters, Corum had two carries for ten yards before leaving the game. Ronnie Rivers is in line to be the Rams’ lead back for the rest of the game.

Vrabel, who was passed over for head coaching jobs last offseason, will also interview with the Jets for their head coaching vacancy. Vrabel went 54-45 over six years with the Titans, running one of the most conservative offenses in the NFL and largely failing to adopt to the modern NFL. The Saints would represent a total rebuild project for Vrabel, 49. In Chicago, Vrabel would inherit Caleb Williams in Chicago after Williams’ borderline disastrous rookie campaign. Only Anthony Richardson and Will Levis had lower EPAs per play than Williams in 2024.

Elliott gets his wish to play for a Super Bowl contender while the Chargers get some much needed depth at running back as they begin their Super Bowl journey in Wildcard Weekend. Expect Elliott to play sparingly, if at all, when the Chargers travel to Houston to face the Texans on Saturday.

The franchise breathes a collective sigh of relief following the scary incident in the team’s Week 18 loss to the Cardinals, which required the cart to take Guerendo from the field. It likely means he will be ready for the start of offseason activities, including organized team activities. Guerendo filled in for the injured Christian McCaffrey and Jordan Mason admirably this season, presenting yet another draft day smash for a franchise known for cashing in on their draft picks.

Bradley’s three-year contract with the team ended this year, meaning he was not technically fired, although his defense’s performance down the stretch more than warranted it. The Colts allowed 25.1 points per game in 2024 while allowing the Broncos, Titans, Giants, and Jaguars to average 34.25 points per game over the final month of the regular season.

Gannon also said on Monday that Murray is “a top-level, franchise quarterback.” While opinions may differ on whether or not Murray is a “top-level” quarterback, it’s hard to argue against him remaining as the team’s starter next season. Not because of his play but because of the five-year, $230.5 million contract extension he signed in the 2022 offseason. Murray is under contract through 2028 and carries a cap hit just north of $45 million next season. It’s unlikely any team would want to trade for Murray given his cap hit, and the dead cap hit he carries in 2025 tops out at just over $63 million. The Cardinals don’t have many options outside of playing Murray, who threw for 3851-21-11 in his first full season as a starter since 2020.

Florio’s report comes hours after it was announced by NFL Media that the Saints had submitted a request to interview the former Stanford head coach. While an interview could still come down the line, it appears the Saints have no interest in interviewing Shaw at this time.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported earlier that the Saints were expected to file a formal request to speak with Glenn. Now, the current Lions defensive coordinator will have a chance to speak with a team he played for in 2008 and served as an assistant from 2016 to 2020 before joining Dan Campbell and company in the Motor City. Glenn has been a hot name NFL coaching cycles for the last several seasons, and will have ample opportunities to land a job for the 2025 season. The Lions, who hold the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs, could be looking at a staff overhaul on both sides of the ball if Glenn and offensive coordinator Ben Johnson both leave at the end of this season.

McDermott said he was “hopeful” that Cooper would be available for Sunday’s game against the Broncos, but would not commit to it. Cooper has not been a full-time receiver in Buffalo since being acquired, so perhaps it doesn’t matter much either way, but it sure isn’t ideal for perhaps the best pure outside receiver the Bills have to be away from the club ahead of the playoffs.

Monken, 58, has never served as a head coach in the NFL, but his reputation as an elite offensive coordinator, specifically in the passing game, has always made him a threat to bolt for a top job of his own. Monken has spent the last two seasons with the Ravens and may have helped coach Lamar Jackson to his second-straight MVP after Lamar won MVP last season. Monken is one of several head coaching candidates the Bears hope to speak with in the coming days. While he isn’t the young, big-named player caller in the ilk of Ben Johnson, Joe Brady, or Liam Coen, it wouldn’t come as a surprise if Monken had a chance to eventually lead his own team and build an offense to best suit his play-calling.

The Dolphins DC now has at least two interviews, one with the Bears and one with the Saints, before we turn to recent vacancies that opened. Weaver profiles more as the leader of men type, and was considered a finalist for the Falcons job in 2024. Weaver played in 103 NFL games and had 15.5 sacks and 265 combined tackles before shifting over to the coaching side, where he’s mostly been a defensive line coach outside of a failed stint as Texans DC in 2020 and his run as Dolphins DC in 2024. He’s not someone with any obvious Saints ties, but Weaver appears to be one of the hotter names on the coaching market right now.
