The NFL schedule traditionally gets plenty of attention. However, there has been more scrutiny as the league has carved out games for streaming services.

Of the 272 regular-season games next season, 22 will on a streaming service as the primary network (one more than announced last season), and 14 will be primarily on cable.

That leaves 236 games that will be on CBS, Fox, NBC or ABC, meaning 87% of the schedule will be on broadcast television, the same percentage as last year. All games in a team’s home market air on a broadcast network.

Even with greater scrutiny of its distribution models, the league stuck to the same plan, according to Hans Schroeder, the NFL’s executive vice president of media distribution.

“Our focus is on getting the best games into the best windows,” Schroeder said. “And even with the additional games that went to Netflix, we think we’re expanding the reach of those games.

Putting the Bills’ Christmas Day game on Netflix is absolute BS

Christmas day games were on Netflix last year too I think. Maybe Prime but not regular stations.

I know I was at my brothers and he's "frugal" and didn't have any of the streaming stuff. My sister ended up streaming off her phone so we could watch them.

Myles Garrett finally got his wish — to be a part of a consistent winning team instead of one in perpetual rebuilding.

The Cleveland Browns traded the two-time AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year to the Los Angeles Rams for pass rusher Jared Verse and three draft picks in a blockbuster deal on Monday.

Garrett was the unanimous choice for Defensive Player of the Year last season after he had 23 sacks and broke the NFL single-season record. He is expected to report to the Rams’ facility on Tuesday and have a news conference to discuss the trade.

he Eagles agreed Monday to trade star wide receiver A.J. Brown to the Patriots for a first-round draft pick in 2028 and a 2027 fifth-round pick.

The fifth-round selection will be the better of New England's two picks in that round of next year's draft, sources told ESPN.

The trade, which has been discussed and anticipated across the NFL for months, reunites Brown and Patriots coach Mike Vrabel.

In a statement posted to Instagram on Monday, Brown thanked the Eagles and their fans.

"Playing for this city has been an honor, and I'm thankful for every moment I had in midnight green. Thank you, Philly. Much love always. God bless," he wrote.

Brown, who turns 29 on June 30, gives Patriots quarterback Drake Maye a No. 1 target as part of a revamped top of the receiver depth chart alongside free agent signing Romeo Doubs.

DETROIT (AP) — NFL player Terrion Arnold of the Detroit Lions was charged Thursday in Florida with leading a plot to detain and pistol-whip three people whom he believed had stolen luxury goods and $100,000 in cash from him.

It turned out that the three, including Arnold’s personal driver, had nothing to do with the theft in February, investigators said.

Two people charged alongside Arnold have pleaded guilty in the attack and agreed to cooperate with Tampa-area authorities, court records show.

The 2026 NFL training camps are on the horizon, and with that in mind, ESPN surveyed league executives, coaches and scouts to help us rank the top 10 players at 11 different positions. This is the seventh edition of these annual rankings.

Here's how it works: Voters gave their own top 10 players at a position, then we compiled the results and ranked candidates based on the number of top-10 votes, composite average and dozens of interviews, with research and film study help from ESPN NFL analyst Matt Bowen as well as ESPN Research. More than 70 voters submitted a ballot on at least one position, and in many cases all positions. Additional voting and follow-up calls with those surveyed contributed to placements.


1. Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills

Highest ranking: 1 | Lowest ranking: 4
Age: 30 | Last year's ranking: 2

Allen has long pushed to supplant Mahomes, but he had to fight for every vote to finally make that happen. Allen took advantage of the composite voting, averaging a ranking of 2.10 per ballot. That helped him overcome his 34.1% first-place clip, slightly below Mahomes' 41.5%. One NFL general manager perfectly summed up why Allen -- the only player in NFL history with at least 200 passing touchdowns and 50 rushing touchdowns -- belongs at the top, though.

"He's the most singularly unstoppable player at the position when you get his A-game," the GM said. "And he has cut down on the turnovers the past two seasons."

Once among the game's most generous at gift-wrapping footballs for defenders, Allen has assuaged the turnover problem, averaging eight interceptions per season since 2024 (down from an average of 15.7 from 2021-23). He fumbled 12 times over the last two years, an improvement from his 20 from the previous two seasons -- and a small consideration against the backdrop of 41 rushing touchdowns since 2023. Reversion to his old ways surfaced at the worst possible time, though, when he threw two interceptions and fumbled twice during last season's divisional roundin Denver.

"You live with him and die with him," an NFL coordinator said. "You can't get mad at him because he won a lot of games for you with a similar style and he was so good."

That same coach credits Allen for elevating the play of teammates: "Look who he was throwing to. His wideouts weren't great. But he made it work and brought out their best. He elevates the people around him, clearly."

Multiple coaches credited now-head coach Joe Brady -- Allen's offensive coordinator the previous two seasons -- with streamlining Allen's game and implementing a scheme that accentuates his strengths. Allen's three seasons with at least 25 passing touchdowns and 10 rushing touchdowns (all over the past three years) are the most in NFL history.

See the rest of the list here.

The Buffalo Bills set out with a goal of revamping one of the weaker wide receiver rooms in the NFL this offseason, and on Tuesday, they added another intriguing name to their list of additions.

The Bills officially claimed wide receiver Quentin Skinner off waivers from the New York Jets on Tuesday, per the league's transaction wire. Skinner signed with the Jets as an undrafted free agent out of Kansas last year and went on to appear in one game this past season.

In a corresponding move, the Bills released veteran wide receiver Devan Thompkins, who joined the team just last month. Buffalo has 14 total wide receivers on its 90-man roster at the time of writing.

Saw that earlier and wasn't sure how I felt about them at first but saw some "live" photos and they are better than that pic.

I get it though. The new stadium leans towards the silver "nickel city" with the giant silver Buffaloes out front (which my cousin said are awesome) and the silver Buffalo Nickel. They at least have history in them.

Better than those red ones.

I'm sure he has a contract that pays no matter what so about game 3 he will get hurt and be out for the season, collecting that paycheck.
