49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said WR Ricky Pearsall (knee/ankle) will be limited in Tuesday’s practice.

13 January 2026

It will be a walkthrough, and coaches do not have a perfect record of what they say winding up being the injury report truth. Still, it’s a good sign for Pearsall’s availability against the Seahawks in the Divisional Round to have any momentum towards the limited line after three straight DNPs and a wishful thinking questionable tag. Pearsall has not played since Week 17.

Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti said “I want [Lamar Jackson] to be my quarterback.”

Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin resigned.

13 January 2026

Tomlin told his players that he plans to step away from coaching. We’re not completely sure that he’ll be content with a booth gig, and at the very least other NFL teams will spend the next 36-48 hours trying to change his mind on that. Tomlin was 193-114-2 in his 19 years as Steelers head coach, winning a Super Bowl in 2008 and going to another in 2010. The end of his career became a morass of tough defensive teams that didn’t have a quarterback as Ben Roethlisberger declined, and yet Tom ...

Buccaneers completed an interview with Giants interim head coach Mike Kafka for their offensive coordinator vacancy.

13 January 2026

Kafka also has an interview scheduled with the Lions for their offensive coordinator vacancy. The Giants offense struggled for most of last year, though they did use three quarterbacks including rookie Jaxson Dart. Kafka never actually played with a full suite of options as Giants offensive coordinator and would be mildly interesting in a spot with better personnel. His roots with Andy Reid have led several reporters to conclude he might draw an interview there once the Chiefs moves on from Matt ...

Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell said he “wants a competitive situation” at quarterback.

13 January 2026

J.J. McCarthy “is going to be a major emphasis” per O’Connell, but the coach said “the competition in that room will only enhance the entire team.” It sure sounds like the Vikings are going to give McCarthy a bar he’ll have to clear in 2026 to start, whether that’s something like Mac Jones, another rookie, or perhaps a different bridge quarterback. McCarthy’s dynasty value and 2026 redraft value will take a major hit until and unless he manages to beat his competition out, leavin ...

Cardinals, Dolphins, Falcons and Giants each requested an interview with Chargers DC Jesse Minter for their head-coaching vacancies.

13 January 2026

Everybody’s doing it. Not enough people are talking about the dangers of peer pressure forcing you to interview Jesse Minter for their head-coaching vacancy at home. Here are the signs you need to look out for if your teens come home wanting to interview Jesse Minter. There are now eight teams with head-coaching vacancies and all eight have requested an interview with the 42 year-old defensive coordinator who held Drake Maye’s offense to 16 points in the AFC Wild Card round. We’re not sure ...

Ravens completed an interview with Vikings DC Brian Flores for their head-coaching vacancy.

13 January 2026

Busy day in the Brian Flores mines. This is the only head-coaching interview Flores has had thus far. He’s obviously more-than-qualified after a mostly-successful run with the Dolphins, but his impending lawsuit with the NFL has kept him from getting the kind of interview totals he likely deserves. The Vikings finished third in defensive DVOA last year and were second in 2024. It’s hard to come up with a better recent resume for any defensive mind who is actually available to interview.

Vikings WR Jordan Addison was arrested for probable cause trespassing on Tuesday morning.

13 January 2026

Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell would not say much about it when asked at a presser today, stating that he only “just learned about that very, very recently, so I don’t want to speculate on that in any way, shape, or form.” The Vikings will have to decide this offseason on extending a fifth-year option or beginning contract talks with Addison, entering his fourth season in the league in 2026. Given his DUI suspension last season and now this, a troubling pattern is beginning to emerge ...

Chargers fired OC Greg Roman.

13 January 2026


The Athletic’s Daniel Popper believes the “tenor surrounding [Chargers offensive coordinator Greg] Roman has very clearly changed” after the team’s Wild Card loss to the Patriots.

13 January 2026

A dejected Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh was non-committal about Roman’s return as OC following LA’s blowout loss to the Patriots on Sunday night — a loss that saw Justin Herbert have one of his worst games as a pro as the Chargers scored just three points. The team’s offensive lineman, including Bradley Bozeman, were circumspect when asked whether Roman should return as the team’s OC in 2026 and call plays. “That’s their call upstairs,” Bozeman told The Athletic. Widely consi ...

Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell said the team would be “very aggressive” in retaining defensive coordinator Brian Flores.

13 January 2026

The Vikings are reportedly working on a new contract for Flores, one of the game’s best defensive minds who headed a Minnesota defense that allowed the league’s third lowest EPA per play in 2025. Flores, who once served as Dolphins head coach, could be a head coaching candidate for some of the teams looking to hire in the coming days and weeks. The Commanders are in talks with Flores about their defensive coordinator vacancy. It appears the Vikings are ready to do whatever it takes to keep F ...

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports the Commanders are hoping to interview Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores for the team’s defensive coordinator vacancy.

13 January 2026

It’s unclear if the Commanders have formally requested an interview with Flores, whose Minnesota defense terrorized opposing passers and allowed the NFL’s third lowest EPA per play in 2025. In Washington, Flores would be taking over a talent-bereft defense that was among the league’s worst against the rush and the pass in 2025. Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell said Tuesday that the team would be “very aggressive” in retaining Flores for 2026 and beyond.

Panthers picked up QB Bryce Young’s fifth-year contract option.

13 January 2026

Carolina general manager Dan Morgan said Tuesday that the team would exercise Young’s option. Young in 2025 showed signs of life as a viable starting NFL quarterback, posting career highs in drop back success rate (45 percent) and adjusted yards per attempt (6.3). Young now has 49 touchdowns to 30 interceptions over three NFL seasons. Morgan added Tuesday that the Panthers were “up in the air” about a long-term deal for Young, 24. He’ll be the team’s starter for at least the next two y ...

Dolphins interview former Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski for the team’s head coaching vacancy.

13 January 2026

Stefanski, the two-time head coach of the year during his tenure with the Browns, could have his choice of open head coaching gigs. He’s interviewed with the Falcons, Giants, Ravens, and Titans, and now is in talks with a Dolphins team that recently fired Mike McDaniel. Stefanski during his time with Cleveland was a creative offensive play designer and play caller who was hamstrung by ownership with a Deshaun Watson contract that ranks among the worst in the history of pro sports. His history ...

Panther general manager Dan Morgan said a long-term contract for QB Bryce Young is “up in the air.”

13 January 2026

“We’re still talking through the roster,” Morgan said of a long-term extension for Young, whose play improved in 2025 as the Panthers made the postseason for the first time since 2018. “It’s up in the air and we’re still working through it.” Young in 2025 had a career-high 45 percent drop back success rate, in line with Caleb Williams and Tyler Shough. He also posted a career-best 6.3 adjusted yards per attempt. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported reported the Panthers are expected to ...

Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio believes it’s “hard to imagine” Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin not coaching in 2026.

13 January 2026

Tomlin said after the Steelers’ Wild Card loss to the Texans that he was not in the “mindset” to make a decision on whether he’ll return to Pittsburgh in 2026. “I’m more in the mindset of what transpired in this stadium, and certainly what we did and didn’t do. Not a big-picture mentality as I sit here tonight,” Tomlin told reporters after yet another first-round playoff exit for his Steelers. Florio points out that Tomlin, who will turn 54 in March, has been coaching since the m ...

Bucs will interview Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monken for the team’s offensive coordinator vacancy.

13 January 2026


Titans will interview former Giants head coach Brian Daboll for the team’s head coaching vacancy.

13 January 2026


Christian Kirk caught 8-of-9 targets for 144 yards and a touchdown in the Texans’ Wild Card win over the Steelers.

13 January 2026

Kirk served as quarterback C.J. Stroud’s primary option throughout as alpha wide receiver Nico Collins drew lockdown shadow coverage from standout corner Joey Porter Jr. That role only grew in the fourth quarter following Collins’ departure due to a concussion, an ailment that has a good chance of keeping him sidelined through the team’s Divisional Round matchup against the Patriots next weekend. Jayden Higgins will likely step into the primary perimeter role in the absence of Collins afte ...

Dalton Schultz caught 3-of-4 targets for 12 yards in the Texans’ Wild Card win over the Steelers.

13 January 2026

Schultz fell victim to a defensive struggle as the game entered the fourth quarter with the Texans nursing a 7-6 lead before two defensive scores broke things wide open. The veteran tight end has a good chance to step into increased usage considering the concussion suffered by alpha wide receiver Nico Collins, particularly considering the tight end-funnel matchup against the Patriots in the Divisional Round.
