🏈 The Touchdown Collective: Seahawks move closer to being sold
Keeping you ahead of the game, one play at a time
In today’s Touchdown Collective there’s the latest from around the NFL in Press Coverage, while there is a dodgy drawing in Get to the Post.
📰 Press Coverage
Seattle Seahawks
There are two groups who lead the pack in the bidding to buy the Super Bowl champions, according to Front Office Sports.
One group is led by Boston Celtics minority owner Aditya Mittal and ex-Celtics governor Wyc Grousbeck. The other is led by 49ers minority investor Vinod Khosla.
The report also says that, per multiple sources, one of those two groups includes a former Seahawks player - but no names were disclosed.
Denver Broncos
QB Bo Nix looks to be in great shape ahead of training camp following the ankle injury which ended his season before the AFC Championship.
The video below was posted yesterday.
LA Rams
Rams offensive lineman Alaric Jackson is not facing charges related to his arrest last month on suspicion of domestic violence, the Los Angeles City Attorney’s office confirmed (via the Los Angeles Times).
Dallas Cowboys
A source has told The Dallas Morning News that there is currently no agreement or anything imminent with regards to veteran pass rusher - and free agent - Von Miller.
Miller posted an edit of himself in a Cowboys uniform on his Instagram on Wednesday.
Philadelphia Eagles
Cooper DeJean is preparing to play more safety this season after Vic Fangio announced the change to his base personnel defense this spring.
“I feel like I’ve gotten to learn all the roles in this defense pretty well,” said DeJean, an All-Pro and Pro Bowl player in the 2025 campaign. “I’m excited for the challenge of trying to perfect that position [safety] rather than going back and forth from safety to corner to nickel last year, kind of just sticking to that safety and nickel spot now.
“I’ve been preparing to play all the positions since I got here.”
Buffalo Bills
Brandin Cooks wants another run at a Super Bowl with the Bills to hopefully put the pain of last season’s play-off loss behind him.
After the whole ‘catch or no-catch’ which put a pin in the Bills’ 2025 campaign, Cooks is looking to put in the work once again.
“Obviously, Buffalo is the place I’d love to be,” Cooks told The Athletic. “I want to prove that to them and have a full off-season with them. Both sides are figuring things out. We’ll see, but hopefully something transpires because I love going to training camp. That’s where you build that callus.”
Arizona Cardinals
QB Jacoby Brissett posted to Instagram yesterday working out with some of his Cardinals team-mates in Florida amid his ongoing contract dispute with the team. “Great week w/ the guys!” the caption on his post read.
Brissett attended mandatory minicamp last month but missed voluntary workouts as he seeks a pay increase.
Tennessee Titans
Gunnar Helm’s new head coach, Robert Saleh, has been impressed with what he’s seen from the tight end so far.
Helm, who says there is “always something to prove, and there’s somebody always coming for your spot” is looking to keep improving in his second year. And his coach has noticed.
“Gunnar looks good, man,” Saleh said. “He looks like a legit dude - from what he was a year ago to what he is now, especially physically. Again, once pads come on, we’ll be able to decide all that, but like all these guys, hopefully they take a big jump and find a way to grab the bull by the horns and take advantage of their opps.”
Washington Commanders
The Commanders will retire jersey No.44 in honour of John Riggins at a ceremony on November 8.
Running back Riggins - a Pro Football Hall of Famer who helped the team win Super Bowl XVII and delivered some iconic moments - will have his jersey number retired at half-time in Week 9 against the LA Rams.
