The ballad of Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney is well-known by now in both Kansas City and New York.
Toney, a cornerstone of Florida’s fleeting success under coach Dan Mullen, was picked 20th overall by the Giants in the 2021 draft. However, New York largely left him to languish on the bench, and he ended his Giants career with just 420 receiving yards in 12 games across two seasons.

James Bradberry might have thought his holding penalty was behind him. He thought wrong
As thrilling as Super Bowl LVII was, it was not without controversy. The playing surface has received a lot of attention in the days following the game, as has a holding penalty on Philadelphia Eagles cornerback James Bradberry called in the closing minutes. That penalty gave the Kansas City Chiefs a fresh set of downs deep in Eagles’ territory with under two minutes remaining, setting the stage for the game-winning field goal and the modest upset.

It’s Valentine’s Day which means love is in the air, and — to borrow one more tired cliche — one of Cupid’s arrows hit the Minnesota Vikings’ mascot, Viktor The Viking.
Viktor had his eye on one Valentine in particular: FanDuelTV’s Kay Adams. Viktor decided that instead of trumpeting his love for Adams through that annoying horn at U.S. Bank Stadium, he went the modern route and tweeted at her.

What a couple. Keep your head on a swivel, Shams.
The Raiders released their former starting quarterback to avoid paying him more than $40 million in guaranteed money. Here are the teams who could try to sign him.
Let the Derek Carr sweepstakes begin.
With the Pro Bowl quarterback declining to waive his no-trade clause, the Raiders released Carr on Tuesday before his $32.9 million salary for the 2023 season would have become fully guaranteed. The Raiders would have also been on the hook for $7.5 million of Carr’s ’24 salary if he was on the roster past the deadline.
The former right guard played 10 seasons in the NFL.
Conrad Dobler, a former 10-year offensive lineman in the NFL, died on Monday at the age of 72. Dobler played most of his career with the then-St. Louis Cardinals, making three Pro Bowls and a second team All-Pro with the team, along with stints with the Saints and Bills.
“He was the kind of tough, physical and fierce player that you love to line up with as a teammate and hate to line up against as an opponent,” Cardinals owner Michael Bidwell said in a statement.
He has been with the team since 2014.
The Derek Carr era has officially come to an end for the Raiders after the organization released the Pro Bowl quarterback on Tuesday, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Carr, 31, will now be allowed to sign with a team of his choosing as soon as this week as a free agent.
The Raiders had until Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET—the NFL’s transaction deadline—to cut Carr in order to avoid paying him $40.4 million in guarantees. The four-time Pro Bowler would’ve been entitled to the hefty sum over the next two seasons as part of a three-year, $121.

Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is eligible for a contract extension this offseason as he’s entering the final year of his rookie contract, but it sounds like those conversations have yet to begin.
Two days after the Eagles lost 38–35 to the Chiefs in Super Bowl LVII, Hurts was asked about any updates regarding his potential contract extension, and he avoided giving a straight answer.
