There have been some very interesting moves and stories this offseason in the NFL, especially in the last couple of weeks. Let SFL.media catch you up on some of these stories.
Huge Trade Involving Myles Garrett
Myles Garrett, the NFL’s reigning Defensive Player of the Year, was traded from the Cleveland Browns to the Los Angeles Rams on June 1, 2026. In return, the Browns got Jared Verse, a young All-Pro edge rusher, plus a 2027 first-round pick, a 2028 second-round pick, and a 2029 third-round pick. This move gives the Browns assets for a rebuild, while the Rams add a game-changing pass rusher as they go all-in on a Super Bowl run.
Myles Garrett, is a two-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year and the league’s active sack leader. The Browns moved him after struggling through two losing seasons, hoping to rebuild around younger talent. This trade gives the Rams a huge boost for a Super Bowl push, while the Browns gain future assets for a new chapter.
Myles Garrett, a dominant force on the defensive line, has been a cornerstone of the Browns’ defense since being drafted first overall in 2017. Known for his incredible athleticism, game-changing sack ability, and leadership on the field, Garrett has established himself as one of the premier pass rushers in the NFL.
Over his six seasons with the Browns, Garrett recorded 64 sacks, consistently ranking among the league’s top defenders. His impact was not just limited to his sack numbers; Garrett’s presence on the field often drew double teams, freeing up other defenders and creating opportunities for the Browns’ defense to shine. The Browns, despite Garrett’s individual excellence, had struggled to build a consistently competitive team around him in recent seasons. The departure of their star pass rusher marked a significant shift in the team’s defensive strategy, as they looked to rebuild and retool for the future. The trade also reflected the Browns’ confidence in their current defensive lineup and their belief that the additional draft capital could help them fill other critical roster needs.
On the other side, the Rams were looking to bolster their pass rush as they aimed to bounce back from a disappointing season. The addition of Garrett, who at 27 years old is still in the prime of his career, provided the Rams with a dynamic playmaker capable of transforming their defensive unit. The trade also allowed the Rams to part ways with Epenesa, who had shown flashes of potential but was not able to consistently produce at the level expected. Jared Verse, the main player from the Rams’ history, played a significant role in the trade negotiations as the Browns evaluated their options. Verse, known for his high football IQ and versatility on the defensive line, was initially considered a key piece in the Rams’ defensive scheme.
However, the acquisition of Garrett allowed the Rams to rework their defensive alignment and set their sights on future success. The trade between the Rams and Browns marked a turning point for both franchises. The Rams, with Garrett now leading their defense, hoped to recapture their championship form, while the Browns received valuable draft assets and a roster spot to continue their rebuilding efforts. Only time would tell if the trade would yield the desired results, but the acquisition of Myles Garrett signaled the Rams’ intent to make a serious playoff push in the upcoming seasons.
AJ Brown Finally Gets Away from Philly
A.J. Brown was traded from the Philadelphia Eagles to the New England Patriots on June 1, 2026. The Eagles received a 2028 first-round pick and a 2027 fifth-round pick in return. Brown, who previously won a Super Bowl with the Eagles, now joins the Patriots and reunites with coach Mike Vrabel. His contract with New England is valued at 112.75 million dollars, with 32.75 million guaranteed.
Absolutely! A.J. Brown entered the league in 2019 as a second-round pick by the Tennessee Titans out of Ole Miss. He quickly emerged as one of the most dynamic receivers in the league, earning Pro Bowl honors in his second season. In 2022, he was traded to the Philadelphia Eagles, where he helped lead the team to a Super Bowl appearance. Brown is known for his physicality, after-the-catch ability, and ability to stretch the field. With his move to New England, he looks to bring that same big-play potential to the Patriots’ offense.
Giants Sign a Bunch of Wide Receivers
The New York Giants recently signed three wide receivers: Odell Beckham Jr., JuJu Smith-Schuster, and Darnell Mooney. Beckham re-signed with the Giants on a veteran minimum deal worth up to 1.3 million dollars, while Smith-Schuster also joined for a similar veteran-minimum contract. Mooney signed a one-year deal worth 10 million dollars. These moves come as the Giants build depth due to injuries, and both Beckham and Smith-Schuster are seen as veteran stabilizers, while Mooney is expected to be a big-play threat. You can also throw in Braxton Berrios as well. He will return kicks and do some slot play.
There is a big reason the Giants have gone HAM on wide receivers. And that is Malik Nabers. Malik Nabers tore his right ACL in Week 4 of the 2025 season. He had surgery in late October 2025 and a second procedure in May 2026 to address stiffness. While he’s making progress, his return for Week 1 is uncertain, and the Giants have signed veterans like Beckham and Smith-Schuster to bolster the receiving corps while they wait for him.
Fins Add a Speedy Veteran at WR
The Miami Dolphins signed wide receiver Jalen Reagor on June 2, 2026, though the exact contract terms weren’t disclosed, suggesting a low-risk, short-term deal. Reagor was drafted 21st overall by the Eagles in 2020 and has 86 career receptions for 1,037 yards and four receiving touchdowns. With Miami rebuilding its receiving group, Reagor will compete for depth and special teams duties.
After a Long Career With the Browns, David Njoku Signs with the LA Chargers
David Njoku has signed a one-year deal with the Los Angeles Chargers for up to 8 million dollars, depending on incentives. The deal includes 850,000 dollars guaranteed and a cap hit of about 2.95 million dollars for the 2026 season. Njoku, drafted by the Browns in 2017, is coming off injury setbacks but gives the Chargers a versatile, low-cost option at tight end.
The Mother of Will Levis Went on a Podcast and Admitted to a Leaked Sex Tape of Her Son from 2024
In 2024, NFL quarterback Will Levis was the victim of an intimate recording leak, which his mother, Beth Levis, revealed on a podcast. The leak came after a hacking group accessed his device while he was at the University of Kentucky. Levis hired cybersecurity experts and a private investigator to try to remove the tape, but no criminal charges or league actions have been reported. As of now, his focus is on recovery after being placed on injured reserve in 2025.
Recently, Will Levis’s mother revealed on a podcast that a hacking group in Eastern Europe accessed Levis’s device in 2024 and leaked an explicit video of him and his former girlfriend. Levis spent a large amount on cybersecurity and private investigators to remove the content, though full removal wasn’t possible. So far, no criminal charges have been announced, and there’s been no disciplinary action from the Titans or the NFL.
Squeaky Clean Good Guy, Coach Mike Vrabel Involved in Major Sex Scandal
Recently, a scandal involving Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel and reporter Dianna Russini emerged after NY Post’s Page Six published photos of them together at a resort in Arizona in April 2026, both married at the time. Earlier photos from 2020 also surfaced, raising speculation, though both Vrabel and Russini denied any affair. Russini resigned from her job, Vrabel took time off for personal counseling, and the NFL chose not to investigate, though rumors about paternity and further private events continue to circulate.
Russini and her husband, Kevin Goldschmidt, welcomed their son Michael Andrew in August 2021, and she stated the name was a tribute to her brother, not Vrabel. Despite speculation, no credible evidence links the name to Vrabel, and the paternity claims or tests have been denied.
