ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports the Titans requested an interview with Cowboys DL coach Aaron Whitecotton for their defensive-coordinator vacancy.

23 January 2026

Whitecotton also had an in-house interview with the Cowboys to fill their defensive coordinator vacancy, but it’s worth noting that the veteran coach has never served as a defensive coordinator. Whitecotton worked with the Jets under Robert Saleh in the past, so this interview with the now Saleh-led Titans shouldn’t come as much of a surprise.

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports the Titans have spoken to Steelers OC Arthur Smith about their offensive-coordinator vacancy.

23 January 2026


Speaking on Monday Mornings with Mitch, Bills TE Dawson Knox said Dalton Kincaid played the entire 2025 season with a torn PCL.

23 January 2026

Bills beat writer Ryan Talbot notes that “a source close to Kincaid confirmed what Knox said” on the podcast. This certainly comes as a bit of a surprise. Kincaid, who popped up on multiple injury reports this season due to a knee injury, apparently played through the entire season with a PCL injury he suffered in 2024, which caused him to miss some time. We would assume that surgery will be in Kincaid’s future to correct the issue after he was limited to just 253 routes run this season on ...

NFL insider Josina Anderson reports Bears defensive backs coach Al Harris is scheduled to meet with the Titans on Saturday for their defensive-coordinator vacancy.

23 January 2026

Harris continues to make the rounds for defensive coordinator openings. The former Pro Bowl corner, who entered the league as a coach in 2012, joined the Bears last offseason as their defensive backs coach and pass game coordinator after spending the previous five seasons with the Cowboys in a similar role. Under Harris, the Bears led the league with 33 turnovers, which included 23 interceptions. Harris most recently met with the Commanders and spent four years coaching alongside Dan Quinn durin ...

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports the Browns are meeting in-person with Jaguars OC Grant Udinski for their head-coaching vacancy.

23 January 2026

According to Fowler, “interest in Udinski is real” for the Browns. Fowler said the Browns are still expected to meet with Rams assistant Nate Scheelhaase next week before making any decisions, but Udinski will have a good chance to make an early impression. In his first season as the Jaguars’ offensive coordinator, Udinski helped lead the team to the sixth-highest scoring offense in the league, while Trevor Lawrence enjoyed a career-year that put him in the MVP conversation. Udinski turned ...

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the Chargers have requested an interview with Ravens DC Zach Orr for the same position.

23 January 2026

With former Chargers DC Jesse Minter now heading to Baltimore to serve as their next head coach, the Chargers have a new vacancy to fill. The obvious connection here is the Harbaughs. After spending the last two seasons coaching with John Harbaugh in Baltimore, Orr could become the latest coach and/or player to make the leap to Jim Harbaugh’s Chargers. Orr’s time in Baltimore was marked by challenges. Despite his defense ranking ninth in points allowed in 2024, the Ravens often felt like the ...

The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reports Josh Allen will have “significant say” on the Bills’ next head coach.

23 January 2026


Bills are expected to interview former Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel for their head-coaching vacancy on Friday.

23 January 2026

McDaniel is expected to take the job as the Chargers’ offensive coordinator, but he’ll still take time to speak with the Bills about their head-coaching opening before settling for a coordinator role. McDaniel withdrew his name from the Browns’ head-coaching search earlier this week in favor of the Chargers’ job, but having the chance to lead a team with one of the best quarterbacks in the game in Josh Allen could be too much for McDaniel to pass up should the opportunity present itself. ...

Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza has declared for the 2026 NFL Draft.

23 January 2026

The 2025 Heisman Trophy winner and national champion didn’t take long to announce his decision. Just days after downing Miami in the College Football Playoff national championship game, Mendoza, who is widely believed to be the No. 1 pick in this year’s draft, will leave college for the pros. Mendoza is a fourth-year prospect who got his start at Cal, before transferring to Indiana for the 2025 season. Under head coach Curt Cignetti, Mendoza showed tremendous improvement, throwing for career ...

Chargers requested an interview with Rams assistant head coach and pass game coordinator Aubrey Pleasant for their defensive coordinator vacancy.

23 January 2026

Pleasant’s current stint with the Rams began in 2023, when they hired him as the defensive backs coach and pass game coordinator. He was promoted from the former role in 2024, though per the team’s website, he continued to work closely with the defensive backs last season. He previously coached cornerbacks for the Rams from 2017-2020.

Seahawks LT Charles Cross (foot) did not practice on Thursday.

23 January 2026

Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald told reporters earlier today that they are “optimistic” about Cross’ availability this week. Cross’ top-two backups, OT Josh Jones (knee/ankle) and OT Amari Kight (knee), were also absent again on Thursday and are considered “day-to-day,” per Macdonald.

Seahawks QB Sam Darnold (oblique) was limited on Thursday.

23 January 2026


Falcons completed and interview with Steelers assistant general manager Andy Weidl for their general manager vacancy.

23 January 2026

Weidl spent the last four seasons in his current role. He previously served as the Eagles’ vice president of player personnel and has worked in the NFL for 27 years. This is Weidl’s first interview in the current hiring cycle.

Rams EDGE Byron Young (knee) did not practice on Thursday.

23 January 2026

Rams head coach Sean McVay told reporters that keeping Young sidelined thus far is a precautionary measure. The Rams’ sack leader (13) is still expected to play. Young ranks second on the team in quarterback pressures (74) and fifth in tackles (56).

Broncos WR Pat Bryant (concussion) practiced fully on Thursday.

23 January 2026

Great news. The Broncos’ third-round rookie is on track to play in the AFC Championship Game against the Patriots as long as he remains setback-free. Bryant caught three passes for 32 yards on the Broncos’ opening drive last week. He should handle a featured role in the offense once again this week, though head coach Sean Payton may opt for a run-heavy approach with backup QB Jarrett Stidham under center.

Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins (foot) was limited on Thursday.

23 January 2026

Dobbins is in the questionable camp at this time. The 27-year-old rusher is attempting to return from a Lisfranc injury suffered during an illegal hip-drop tackle in Week 10 against the Raiders. Ideally, he upgrades to full participation tomorrow.

Broncos WR Troy Franklin (hamstring) was limited on Thursday.

23 January 2026

Franklin has a chance to play this week, but hamstring injuries can be finicky. The young wide receiver was forced from last week’s Divisional Round win over the Bills after suffering the injury in-game. He earned zero targets before departing.

Patriots CB Carlton Davis (concussion) was limited on Thursday.

22 January 2026

Davis still has a chance to clear the NFL’s five-phase concussion protocol, but he will probably need to upgrade to full participation tomorrow. Davis leads the team with 12 pass breakups this season. It would be great to have him on the field for New England’s AFC Championship Game against the Broncos, though Denver may opt for a run-heavy approach.

Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (shoulder) practiced fully on Thursday.

22 January 2026

Henderson is practicing fully this week, so his availability for the Patriots’ AFC Championship Game against the Broncos’ top-tier defense is not in jeopardy. He will continue sharing the backfield workload with veteran RB Rhamondre Stevenson, who is playing very well at the moment.

Patriots EDGE Harold Landry (knee) did not practice on Thursday.

22 January 2026

Landry still has a chance to play, though it would be nice to see him resume practicing tomorrow. The veteran pass rusher ranks third on the team in quarterback pressures (50), second in sacks (nine) and 10th in tackles (28). Patriots LB Marte Mapu (hip) was also absent on Thursday.
