Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Liam Coen said Saturday that <a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///nfl/players/209912" href="https://thescore.com/nfl/players/209912">Travis Hunter</a> will get his first reps on the defensive side of the ball next week. "We just kind of ended up making a decision that, from yesterday to today, we wanted to be able to clean up some of the things that we may have been able to miss yesterday [and] get extra reps on the offensive side of the ball," Coen stated after the team workout, according to <a href="https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/45085615/jags-travis-hunter-learning-playbooks-get-d-reps-next-week">ESPN's Michael DiRocco</a>. "And, next week, he'll start to roll on defense."Hunter has been studying Jacksonville's offensive and defensive playbooks since joining the organization. The Jaguars sent a package of draft picks to Cleveland in a blockbuster draft-day trade that included their 2026 first-round selection. Coen added that the plan was to focus Hunter's reps on the offensive side first because of the complexity of the terminology and the system.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>The 21-year-old played 700-plus snaps on both sides of the ball last season. "You've just got to get used to it," Hunter said. "It just has a lot of different types of calls, but other than that, the defense is pretty easy. You've just got to get used to the offense."Hunter will play a key role in Jacksonville's overhauled wide receiver room in 2025 after the Jaguars released <a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///nfl/players/115240" href="https://thescore.com/nfl/players/115240">Gabe Davis</a> and traded <a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///nfl/players/93483" href="https://thescore.com/nfl/players/93483">Christian Kirk</a> to the Houston Texans this offseason.The 2024 Heisman winner hauled in 1,258 yards and 15 touchdowns with four interceptions and 11 passes defended in 2024.

"I definitely love working, I love getting better, so whenever there's an opportunity for me to go and chase that, why not do it?"He added, "Competition brings the best out of you. That's just how life works. You just gotta compete and get better because somebody to the right, left, or in front of you is trying to outwork you and be better than you. Competition, I love it."<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>Jones signed a one-year, $14-million deal worth up to $17.7 million with incentives in March. General manager Chris Ballard said shortly afterward that there would be a competition for the starting job between Richardson and Jones.The 27-year-old Jones was released by the Giants in November and signed with the Minnesota Vikings for the remainder of the campaign. He threw 2,070 yards, eight touchdowns, and seven interceptions in 10 starts last season. Jones was selected sixth overall in the 2019 draft.Richardson is coming off a tumultuous year in which he was benched midway through the season for <a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///nfl/players/2945" href="https://thescore.com/nfl/players/2945">Joe Flacco</a>. He reclaimed the starting role two games later, finishing with a 6-5 record in 11 starts. The 2023 fourth overall selection completed just 47.7% of his passes for 1,814 yards with eight touchdowns and 12 interceptions.The 22-year-old said he's been working with private quarterback coach Dr. Tom Gormely to focus on footwork and staying calm in the pocket."That was one of the main things I wanted to focus on because everybody knows I can throw the ball whenever I'm smooth, but I want to find opportunities for myself to be consistent when I am off-balance and make decent throws," Richardson said. "And even when everything is perfect, making sure my feet are intact and my width and my base are solid and I'm just completing a pass."Indianapolis' offense ranked 24th in EPA/play and 27th in success rate last season, according to <a href="https://rbsdm.com/stats/stats/">Ben Baldwin's database</a>.

Browns quarterback <a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///nfl/players/2945" href="https://thescore.com/nfl/players/2945">Joe Flacco</a> said he's ready to win the starting signal-caller job after returning to Cleveland on a one-year deal."I don't think there's any expectation of exactly who's going to be the starting quarterback," Flacco said on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1z5b-2buR0">ESPN Cleveland radio</a>."I'm excited to get in that room and go show that I have a lot of football ahead of me and kind of become part of the team and do my best to prove all those things - just like you always would when you kind of come into a new situation and want to be the guy."<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>Flacco signed a contract Friday that can earn him up to $13 million with incentives. He spent the 2023 campaign with the Browns and earned Comeback Player of the Year after going 4-1 in five starts. He helped lead Cleveland to the playoffs, throwing for 1,616 yards with 13 touchdowns.The 40-year-old Flacco joins a quarterback room that only houses <a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///nfl/players/173994" href="https://thescore.com/nfl/players/173994">Kenny Pickett</a> and <a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///nfl/players/84667" href="https://thescore.com/nfl/players/84667">Deshaun Watson</a>. Pickett was acquired from the Philadelphia Eagles in March, and it's uncertain if Watson can play in 2025 due to an Achilles injury.Pickett, 26, has struggled since entering the league as a first-round pick in 2022, compiling a 15-10 record as a starter while throwing for 15 scores and 14 interceptions.Cleveland owns the No. 2 pick in next week's draft and could select a quarterback to compete with Flacco and Pickett. However, <a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///ncaaf/players/152938" href="https://thescore.com/ncaaf/players/152938">Cam Ward</a>, the projected top signal-caller in the draft, is the heavy favorite to go first overall. It's unclear if the Browns are willing to take a swing on a quarterback with their top selection."I do think competition in that quarterback room, in general, kind of breeds the environment to learn and to become the best version of yourself," Flacco said.The Browns finished 3-14 last season, and the offense ranked 32nd in EPA/play and success rate, according to <a href="https://rbsdm.com/stats/stats/">Ben Baldwin's database</a>.

Browns' Flacco ready to win QB1 job: 'Excited to get in that room'

The 2025 NFL draft is nine days away, and organizations are getting ready to select their next cl...

The 2025 NFL draft is nine days away, and organizations are getting ready to select their next class of players. Here's a look at five teams that could define draft weekend:<h3>Cleveland Browns</h3>The Browns desperately need a franchise quarterback and own the No. 2 selection in this year's draft. In most years, this would be a prime position to roll the dice and select a signal-caller. But the 2025 draft features one of the weakest quarterback classes in recent memory.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>Cam Ward, the projected top passer in the draft, is the heavy favorite to be Tennessee's No. 1 overall selection. That leaves Cleveland with a tough decision to make - one that will ultimately have ripple effects for the rest of the first round.They could swing for Shedeur Sanders, the presumed No. 2 quarterback, though many evaluators believe that would be a reach. If they pass on Sanders, top prospects like Travis Hunter or Abdul Carter could be in play, or they could explore trading down.The Browns have the most draft value in 2025 with 10 total picks, including five selections in the top 105, according to <a href="https://www.tankathon.com/nfl/power_rankings">The Harvard Sports Analysis Collective</a>. Kenny Pickett and Joe Flacco are competing to be the Week 1 starting quarterback, but the Browns have the draft ammo to add someone to the mix if they don't attack the position with their first selection.<h3>New Orleans Saints</h3><figure class="article-segment--image"><img src="https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/780364/cropped_GettyImages-1354250456.jpg?ts=1744561849" srcset="https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/780364/w220xh124_GettyImages-1354250456.jpg?ts=1744561849 220w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/780364/w320xh180_GettyImages-1354250456.jpg?ts=1744561849 320w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/780364/w640xh360_GettyImages-1354250456.jpg?ts=1744561849 640w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/780364/w768xh432_GettyImages-1354250456.jpg?ts=1744561849 768w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/780364/w1080xh607_GettyImages-1354250456.jpg?ts=1744561849 1080w"><figcaption class="article-segment--image-caption"> Wesley Hitt / Getty Images Sport / Getty</figcaption></figure>The Saints are in no man's land heading into the 2025 draft. New Orleans finished 5-12 last season after a 2-0 start and hasn't reached the playoffs since 2020 in a weak NFC South division. Its roster lacks young talent after years of poor drafting, and the organization refuses to initiate a full rebuild.General manager Mickey Loomis fired head coach Dennis Allen in November and hired former Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore to help steer the ship. Derek Carr was projected to be Moore's starting quarterback in 2025, but his season is reportedly in jeopardy due to a shoulder injury that may require surgery. Carr's four-year, $150-million contract has also handicapped the salary books. Spencer Rattler, Jake Haener, and Ben DiNucci are the other signal-callers on the Saints' roster. New Orleans has the No. 9 selection in the draft and four top-95 picks. The Saints could take a quarterback with their first selection and have the ammo to move up in the draft if need be. Loomis, the general manager since 2002, has to be feeling the heat after hiring his third head coach. General managers usually don't get the chance to hire a fourth, so Loomis needs to get the Saints moving in the right direction. The 69-year-old has been aggressive in recent drafts, trading up to select players such as Chris Olave, Trevor Penning, and Marcus Davenport. If New Orleans attacks a quarterback early, other teams eying signal-callers will be scrambling.<h3>San Francisco 49ers</h3>The 49ers' front office let several former starters walk in free agency following a disappointing 6-11 season riddled with injuries. Dre Greenlaw, Charvarius Ward, Talanoa Hufanga, Javon Hargrave, and Deebo Samuel all battled ailments and are now gone.The 49ers' roster is in transition, but the team still has the talent to make a run in 2025 and bounce back after a fourth-place finish in the NFC West. General manager John Lynch has plenty of picks to work with, as San Francisco holds the fifth-most draft value, per <a href="https://www.tankathon.com/nfl/power_rankings">The Harvard Sports Analysis Collective</a>.Lynch has sat back this offseason and watched his roster dwindle, so expect him to be active in the trade market. The franchise has seven picks in the final four rounds, which Lynch can use to move up in earlier rounds or acquire cheap veteran talent.<h3>Seattle Seahawks</h3><figure class="article-segment--image"><img src="https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/780366/cropped_GettyImages-2001364356.jpg?ts=1744561991" srcset="https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/780366/w220xh124_GettyImages-2001364356.jpg?ts=1744561991 220w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/780366/w320xh180_GettyImages-2001364356.jpg?ts=1744561991 320w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/780366/w640xh360_GettyImages-2001364356.jpg?ts=1744561991 640w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/780366/w768xh432_GettyImages-2001364356.jpg?ts=1744561991 768w, https://assets-cms.thescore.com/uploads/image/file/780366/w1080xh607_GettyImages-2001364356.jpg?ts=1744561991 1080w"><figcaption class="article-segment--image-caption"> Steph Chambers / Getty Images Sport / Getty</figcaption></figure>Seattle has been the talk of the offseason. It dealt quarterback Geno Smith to the Raiders, traded wide receiver DK Metcalf to the Steelers, and released a fan favorite in Tyler Lockett. To counter these moves, the Seahawks signed Sam Darnold and Cooper Kupp, setting the stage for a new offensive regime in 2025.The Seahawks are the only team in the league with five picks in the top 92 selections, giving general manager John Schneider flexibility on the first two days. This isn’t a rebuild - the front office believes it can still compete in the NFC West.A general manager doesn’t make this many bold moves without a bigger plan in mind. You don't trade your starting quarterback and borderline star wideout while signing players like Darnold and Kupp if you're not prepared to be aggressive with the assets you recouped from the trades. If Seattle zones in on a player it likes in the first round, it can easily jump up from 18. It can also use its five picks in the first three rounds to trade for players that help the team win now. Schneider has received pushback for how he handled his team this year, and how he navigates the draft will be fascinating to watch.<h3>Philadelphia Eagles</h3>The Eagles are coming off a dominant Super Bowl victory and have the core of their team returning for next season. However, they lost Josh Sweat, Milton Williams, C.J. Gardner-Johnson, and Mekhi Becton, who all contributed to their 2024 success. General manager Howie Roseman has taken low-risk, high-reward swings on players in free agency, but he's been relatively quiet this offseason.If you know Roseman's history, he won't sit back on draft weekend. The 49-year-old made eight trades in last year's draft, tied for the most since the NFL went to seven rounds in 1994, according to <a href="https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-draft-2024-eagles-tie-nfl-record-for-most-trades-in-7-round-draft-here-are-all-the-moves-made/">CBS Sports' Jeff Kerr</a>. Philadelphia owns the 32nd pick in the first round, but it has plenty of draft capital to work with. It has eight selections this year and is projected to have 12 in 2026.Recent drafts have been home runs for the Eagles, producing foundational players like Jalen Carter, Nolan Smith, Quinyon Mitchell, and Cooper DeJean. With Roseman’s aggressive, calculated style, expect the Eagles to stay one step ahead of the curve again this year.

New England Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels said Thursday that taking a year off from coaching will help him better prepare for the 2025 season."I think it was something you don't ever think about doing, but I would say it's a blessing to have the time to go back and look at what you've been through in terms of the changes and different highs, lows," McDaniels told reporters, according to <a href="https://www.audacy.com/weei/sports/patriots/mcdaniels-emphasizes-clean-slate-for-returning-patriots">Tom Carroll of WEEI</a>.McDaniels most recently served as head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders but was fired eight games into the 2023 season. He finished his two-year tenure in Las Vegas with a 9-16 record.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>The 48-year-old returned to New England in January after new head coach Mike Vrabel hired him to run the offense. McDaniels had spent 13 years as the Patriots' offensive coordinator during two separate stints starting in 2006."You look back at the past in terms of what we've done schematically and what the league is doing now strategically," McDaniels added."I had a really good opportunity last year to watch football without a lot of deadlines, which was a new, interesting opportunity for me and just see different things that were coming up throughout the course of the league."McDaniels will be tasked with revamping an offense that ranked 27th in EPA/play and 30th in points per game. The Patriots' front office added <a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///nfl/players/65482" href="https://thescore.com/nfl/players/65482">Stefon Diggs</a> this offseason to give <a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///nfl/players/199741" href="https://thescore.com/nfl/players/199741">Drake Maye</a> a veteran pass-catcher. They also brought in offensive linemen <a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///nfl/players/44290" href="https://thescore.com/nfl/players/44290">Morgan Moses</a> and <a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///nfl/players/85737" href="https://thescore.com/nfl/players/85737">Garrett Bradbury</a>."I always start each year with a fresh perspective," McDaniels said. "I wasn't here last year, and I know every player on our team is going to get a fresh start. We're going to give everybody our best, and our job is to take the guys that we have on our offense and make them better."

<a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///nfl/players/111570" href="https://thescore.com/nfl/players/111570">DK Metcalf</a> wanted out of Seattle long before being traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers in early March.The former Seahawks wideout reportedly requested a trade multiple times in recent offseasons, sources told <a href="https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/44478218/nfl-owners-meetings-2025-buzz-annual-league-draft-palm-beach">ESPN's Brady Henderson</a>.Seattle didn't plan on trading Metcalf this offseason, Henderson added. Ultimately, the Seahawks had to consider the wide receiver's unhappiness and the large contract he would command before they decided to move him.<div class="the-score-article-ad-unit"></div>Metcalf's reported preferred landing spots were the Los Angeles Chargers and Houston Texans. However, the Steelers were willing to give Metcalf a five-year, $150-million deal on top of Seattle's desired draft compensation of a second-round pick. The Patriots were also interested in Metcalf, but he didn't want to go to New England, Henderson reported.Seattle also released veteran wide receiver <a data-in-app-uri="thescore:///nfl/players/54107" href="https://thescore.com/nfl/players/54107">Tyler Lockett</a> this offseason after a 10-year run with the team.

He has 6,324 receiving yards and 48 touchdowns in 97 career games.

Stanford is hiring former Indianapolis Colts and Carolina Panthers coach Frank Reich as its interim head coach for the 2025 season, the school announced Monday.
