The San Francisco 49ers and Brandon Aiyuk continue to discuss a contract extension and a trade is considered unlikely.

Wide receivers such as DeVonta Smith and Amon-Ra St. Brown have signed extensions recently, which helps set Aiyuk's market. Aiyuk is entering the final season of his current contract with the 49ers.

The 49ers drafted Ricky Pearsall in the first round, which increased speculation that Aiyuk or Deebo Samuel could be traded this offseason.

Philadelphia Eagles director of scouting Brandon Hunt interviewed Tuesday for the New England Patriots' lead personnel job, according to a report.

Three other candidates declined to interview with the Patriots -- Buffalo Bills director of player personnel Terrance Gray, former Arizona Cardinals vice president of player personnel Quentin Harris and Cincinnati Bengals senior personnel executive Trey Brown.

Patriots director of scouting Eliot Wolf has served as the de facto General Manager since Bill Belichick's departure earlier this offseason, and his expected candidacy for the job could explain the interview rejections.

Jackson answered, "Most definitely. I was 230 two years ago. I was 215 last season, but now I'm like 205."

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice is a suspect in an alleged assault that injured a man at a Dallas nightclub earlier this week, police have confirmed.

Rice was driving 119 mph before the crash on a Dallas freeway, according to an arrest warrant affidavit obtained by the Morning News.

There were a few reasons why Kirk Cousins left the Minnesota Vikings for the Atlanta Falcons in free agency this offseason.

For one, the Falcons were willing to offer Cousins more guaranteed money, but the Vikings' plan to draft a quarterback also played a role in the veteran looking for a new team, according to a report.

Minnesota was honest with Cousins about the possibility of selecting a quarterback high in the draft. The Vikings eventually took J.J. McCarthy with the 10th overall pick.

What's ironic is that the Falcons shocked many when they used the No. 8 overall pick on Michael Penix, Jr.

Cousins reportedly had no idea the Falcons were going to take a quarterback -- a decision which left him "shocked" and "disappointed."

The Carolina Panthers have agreed to a contract with running back Rashaad Penny.
