Reunion: Odell Beckham Jr. is returning to the New York Giants, the team he last played for in 2018. Beckham visited the team again Monday, and is signing with New York.
Sources: Rams QB Matthew Stafford’s recently revised contract includes rolling guarantee triggers after the 2026 and 2027 seasons, creating flexibility and allowing both sides to continue evaluating the reigning NFL MVP’s future each of the next two offseasons.
🏈 Stafford is still due $40 million in 2026, and now also has a $5M guaranteed roster bonus in March 2027. His $45M base salary in 2027 and a $5M March 2028 roster bonus become fully guaranteed if he’s still on the roster on the third day of the 2027 league year, meaning a decision for next season comes by mid-March.
🏈 A $100 million base salary in 2029 would vest if Stafford is on the 10th day of the 2028 league year — a dummy year that creates a deadline for the sides to work out a new deal or move on if Stafford, who will turn 40 in February 2028, intends to keep playing.
Stafford can earn $5 million in incentives each of the next two seasons ($2.5M for NFC championship win and $2.5M for Super Bowl win with 70% playtime in each game).
So, if counting the March roster bonuses as part of the prior year’s compensation, Stafford is due $45 million for 2026 and $50M for 2027, with a chance to earn $105M total with incentives over two seasons.
We are devastated to hear about the passing of John Sterling, a WFAN and Yankees radio icon whose voice was synonymous with an entire generation of Yankee fandom.
Rest in peace, John ❤️
Four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers to @PatMcAfeeShow: “Anyone on here expecting me to make some big decision on here, just turn it off right now.”
But Rodgers is effusive in praising new Steeelrs coach Mike McCarthy. Says there’s no deadline. Conversations to be had down the line.
Giants are hiring NFL executive Dawn Aponte as Sr VP in football operations, per @JordanRaanan and me.
Aponte has been with the league since 2017 as the chief administrator of football operations. She also has previous experience working on the team side with the Dolphins, Browns and Jets.
Shedeur Sanders is being added to the Pro Bowl Games roster. Sanders will replace Drake Maye, whose New England Patriots have advanced to Super Bowl LX.

#Rams coach Sean McVay confirmed that QB Matthew Stafford has just a sprained finger and will be OK. But CB Ahkello Witherspoon was placed on IR with a shoulder injury.
Black Monday may be the worst day of the year for many @NFL coaches, but it's actually one of the most interesting days for #NFL fans.
@MoloriMedia shares why he believes no channel or media platform covered the day better than @SiriusXMNFL!
