The Kansas City Chiefs have signed former Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt to their practice squad. This move aims to address the team’s injury-plagued backfield, particularly after Isiah Pacheco’s recent injury. According to NFL analyst Tom Pelissero, Hunt, who was the Chiefs’ 2017 third-round pick, was brought in for a workout. This reunion of sorts can be seen as a “homecoming” for Hunt, returning to the team where his NFL career began. https://x.com/TomPelissero/status/1836121659004088812?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1836121659004088812%7Ctwgr%5Ec2521bd30824a74bb4cb0f0cb4564e2adac8d9af%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.vibyemedia.com%2Fformer-browns-player-signed-by-chiefs%2F Hunt’s addition to the practice squad provides the Chiefs with much-needed depth at running back. With Pacheco sidelined, Hunt may see playing time soon, offering an…

The Cleveland Browns secured a hard-fought 18-13 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 2, improving their record to 1-1. However, quarterback Deshaun Watson’s performance was underwhelming, completing 22 of 34 passes for 186 yards, no touchdowns, and no interceptions. Watson’s lackluster start has sparked concerns about his ability to regain his form. A former NFL executive expressed doubts about Watson’s potential resurgence, stating, “I don’t think he’ll turn it around in Cleveland or anywhere.” Citing Watson’s lost confidence and diminished arm strength, likely due to off-field issues and injuries, the executive believes the Houston version of Watson is gone.…

The Cleveland Browns’ Week 2 victory evened their record at 1-1, but the team’s offense remains a concern. Quarterback Deshaun Watson has underwhelmed, and the running game has struggled. To address this, the Browns might consider acquiring another running back. A potential trade target is Houston Texans’ running back Dameon Pierce. As the Texans’ backup behind Joe Mixon, Pierce has shown flashes of talent but lacks consistency. In 28 games, he has 1,371 rushing yards, six touchdowns, and 43 receptions for 266 yards. At just 24 years old, Pierce could benefit from a change of scenery. Acquiring him wouldn’t break…

The New York Jets’ defense was dealt a significant blow over the weekend, suffering injuries to key players Jermaine Johnson, C.J. Mosley, D.J. Reed, and Michael Carter II. Johnson’s torn Achilles is a particularly devastating loss, but there is some positive news on the horizon. Fortunately, cornerback D.J. Reed and Michael Carter II are expected to return for Thursday night’s matchup against the New England Patriots. Both players were listed as full participants in practice on Tuesday, indicating they’ll be available for the crucial AFC East clash. Reed’s return is especially significant, as he’s developed into one of the most…

Pittsburgh Steelers star edge rusher TJ Watt has consistently faced frustration due to perceived unfair treatment from referees and pundits. Despite his exceptional talent, Watt has been snubbed for awards and feels he doesn’t receive favorable calls, particularly regarding holding penalties. Many believe Watt is held on nearly every play, but referees rarely call it. Former NFL official Gene Steratore shed light on this issue, explaining that holding occurs on almost every play, but referees have specific criteria for calling it. Steratore noted that Watt’s signature rip move, which contributes to his success, also makes it less likely for holding…

The Pittsburgh Steelers have placed linebacker Tyler Matakevich on the injured reserve list due to a hamstring injury suffered in Week 2’s game against the Denver Broncos. The injury occurred while Matakevich made a tackle on a punt return. As a result of being placed on the injured reserve list, Matakevich must miss at least four weeks. The Steelers can designate up to eight players to return from the injured reserve list per season, and they have already used two of those designations on tackle Dylan Cook and outside linebacker Jeremiah Moon. Matakevich, 31, was a key contributor on special…

The Pittsburgh Steelers announced on Tuesday that they have signed defensive back D’Shawn Jamison to their practice squad. To make room for Jamison, the team released cornerback Zyon Gilbert from the practice squad. Jamison, an undrafted free agent out of Texas in 2023, has had stints with the San Francisco 49ers and Carolina Panthers. He played 15 games for the Panthers in 2023, starting two, and recorded five tackles and one pass defended. Jamison had an impressive college career at Texas, appearing in 60 games and starting 40. He accumulated 139 tackles, 23 passes defensed, and two fumble recoveries. He…

As the 2024 NFL season began, the New England Patriots faced uncertainty with their pass rush following a late offseason trade that sent star pass-rusher Matthew Judon away. Concerns about replacing his impact quickly surfaced, but Keion White has alleviated those worries. In just two games, White has amassed 11 total tackles, four sacks, and a forced fumble, demonstrating his ability to disrupt the quarterback. At only 25 years old, he is rapidly emerging as one of the NFL’s most promising defensive talents. Pats Buzz shared an impressive statistic on X: White is currently on track to break the NFL…

Last year, due to numerous injuries, the Cleveland Browns had to bring in players off the street to finish the season. While this may be an exaggeration, it’s true that the Browns lost three starting-level offensive tackles to season-ending knee injuries. Although Dawand Jones has recovered from his injury, neither starters Jedrick Wills nor Jack Conklin have appeared in a regular-season game in 2024. https://x.com/DanielOyefusi/status/1835720392175919165?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1835720392175919165%7Ctwgr%5E6fde6e21d2ec7b71b6bca8f9c08ff172039804d6%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.vibyemedia.com%2Fkevin-stefanski-leaves-open-possibility-that-jed-wills-jack-conklin-return-this-week%2F However, this might change in Week 3. Analyst Daniel Oyefusi posted on X that both tackles are being evaluated for a potential return this Sunday. “Will one or both of Browns OTs Jed…

The Cleveland Browns secured a crucial Week 2 victory to even their record at 1-1, though it wasn’t a flawless performance. Offensively, the team continues to face challenges. Deshaun Watson has been underwhelming, and the running game hasn’t been particularly effective either. Given these struggles, could the Browns consider acquiring another running back? Recently, it was suggested that the Browns might target Houston Texans’ running back Dameon Pierce in a trade. Would such a move be logical? Pierce, currently a backup behind Joe Mixon, has shown potential in his first three NFL seasons but hasn’t been able to solidify his…
