The Texans have ARRIVED to NFL free agency! ESPN’s Adam Schefter just reported that the Houston Texans are signing former Philadelphia Eagles S Reed Blankenship to a 3-year, $24.75 million deal: Many of us here at Battle Red Blog have been hoping/expecting some Texans activity this offseason, and the Texans have been plenty active when […]
Reed Blankenship is not returning to the Philadelphia Eagles in 2026. The Birds are losing their starting safety and team captain to the Houston Texans, who are reportedly signing Blankenship to a three-year, $24.75 million contract.

The mostly healthy Cleveland Cavaliers take on the not at all healthy Philadelphia 76ers. I’ll be in the comments throughout the game sharing my thoughts. Feel free to join in on the conversation and let your voice be heard in the comments below. Go Cavs!
The deal many expected to happen this spring has indeed come to fruition, as ESPN’s Jeff Passan is reporting that the Phillies and Jesús Luzardo have agreed to a five-year contract extension that will keep the left-hander in Philadelphia through 2031. Luzardo, now 28 years old, will be 34 when his contract expires. Passan also […]
In a wild sequence this afternoon, the Las Vegas Raiders secured three defensive starters. They agreed to terms with linebackers Nakobe Dean of the Philadelphia Eagles and Quay Walker of the Green Bay Packers. They also re-signed pass-rusher Malcolm Koonce. Earlier in the day, they signed Colts’ pass-rusher Kwity Paye and. they also re-signed cornerback […]
The Eagles are starting to build their 2026 roster by first looking at internal free agents and who they want to bring back.

With the new league year approaching, the NFL officially announced compensatory picks in the 2026 NFL Draft. The Philadelphia Eagles were awarded the following four selections: The Eagles earned these picks through their free agency losses last offseason. Milton Williams signing with the New England Patriots got them a third-rounder, Josh Sweat signing with the […]
You couldn’t have written a better script for Flyers winger Alex Bump. From missing the initial calls from the Flyers saying he was getting called up for Saturday’s game against Pittsburgh, to scoring his first National Hockey League goal, to getting a paper mask after the game thanks to Nic Desaluriers’ luggage snafu, it was one to remember. It sounds like Bump isn’t going to be one-and-done, or two-and-done if head coach Rick Tocchet’s statements after practice Monday is any measuring stick....
The Philadelphia Flyers (a not-so-good team in the NHL) are hosting the New York Rangers (a bad team in the NHL) on Monday night as we count down the days left in this season. And these two teams aren’t bad and mediocre in an exciting way — so this might be a slog to watch. Puck drop: 7:00 p.m. How to watch/listen: 📺: NBCSP+ 📻: 93.3 WMMR Pregame reading Jamie Drysdale got into his first career fight at the game on Saturday, and he loved every second of it. Just anot...
The Philadelphia Flyers’ biggest splash at the trade deadline wasn’t selling off a bunch of aging veterans for whatever draft picks they could pry from the hands of the top teams around the NHL — bad news for some fans. But, they took the step to clear up space for potential top-end winger prospects in the future and bet big on a former top draft pick figuring it out in their system. By bringing in David Jiricek from the Minnesota Wild, they have possibly solve some of their problems on t...
There’s still a bit of uncertainty as to what the Eagles’ wide receiver room will look like in 2026, but one player we do know WON’T be back in Philadelphia is Jahan Dotson. The Birds’ WR3 is reportedly heading to the Atlanta Falcons on a two-year deal worth $15 million and includes $10 million guaranteed, […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers will look to establish some positive momentum after Sunday’s disappointing loss to the Boston Celtics. Even though they’ll be playing on the second night of a back-to-back, going up against this version of the Philadelphia 76ers should help them. The Sixers will be without their four best players: Joel Embiid (oblique), Tyrese […]
The Philadelphia Eagles and Michael Carter II have agreed to a “renegotiated contract” that will keep the 27-year-old defensive back in Philly this season, according to a report from PHLY’s EJ Smith. This news was first noted by Will Parkinson (although it is inaccurately stated that Carter was cut, which he wasn’t): Entering the new […]
The Eagles made a big deal ahead of the NFL trade deadline in 2025, bringing edge rusher Jaelan Phillips to Philadelphia from Miami. The former Dolphins pass rusher was instantly impactful upon reuniting with Vic Fangio and he even called the trade the best thing to ever happen to him. Despite the Eagles reportedly making […]
Former Philadelphia Eagles edge defender Jaelan Phillips, SB Nation’s third overall rated free agent this season, is reportedly signing with the Carolina Panthers for a deal that is wildly outside of their current cap situation. The 26-year old pass rusher is one of the big gets of the offseason, a fact underscored by the 4-year, […]
Newly acquired Flyers prospect David Jiricek made his Phantoms debut on Saturday, and battled some of the ups and downs of a start on the fly with a new team.
Much was made over the weekend about the Philadelphia Eagles reportedly receiving calls about trading Jalen Carter. But Bill Colarulo of 97.5 The Fanatic is now reporting that those rumors were potentially just a negotiating tactic, and that, in fact, the team and Carter are in talks on a long-term contract extension. “The Jalen Carter […]
Here are the lineups. For the Phillies: For the Red Sox: Let’s talk about it (or the WBC stuff)
The NFL’s negotiating window (AKA the “legal tampering” oxymoron) officially began at noon today, March 9. All impending free agents are now permitted to have contact with every team in the league. The biggest news development to occur right after the window opened, however, involved a top free agent re-signing with his own club. Alec […]
Is it on TV? No! It is not! And you better get used to that, because NESN isn’t showing the game tomorrow or Friday this week either and the Sox are off on Wednesday. I will never in my life understand this. Even if it’s “too expensive” to do a full broadcast, why not just […]
