Update: Gillislee lived up to the billing in the Patriots season opener, scoring two touchdowns through a quarter and a half of play.

Sean McVay speaks in swift, forceful bursts of football verbiage, and the youngest head coach in modern NFL history often expresses his thoughts in the second person. "Really, until you get out there in the game, it probably won't set in," McVay said of his historic debut Sunday. Yep, this

The Chiefs have had a rocky start against the Patriots, and decided to get creative on their second drive of the game by running the option with Travis Kelce.

The Bengals signed linebacker Vontaze Burfict to a three-year contract extension worth a reported $38 million that will keep him with the team through the 2020 season.
