Month: May 2026

Ah, revenge games. Whenever an NFL player or coach goes up against an old team, it always makes for a good storyline. Sometimes, there’s no real hardcore animosity, and at least publicly, you’ll hear a lot about how it’s really just another game. So we’re not trying to manufacture hostility as much as highlight games where prominent personalities will run into their exes. If we headlined it as “Top 10 Water Under the Bridge Games for 2026,” you’d still understand what we’re going for. Will there be hugs on the field in pregame? Will the old fans cheer or boo the guy they bought a jersey of who signed elsewhere? These are the games where those questions will be asked and answered in 2026. There are a handful of coaches facing old teams every year, but this could be fun. Mike McDaniel got the Miami Dolphins to the playoffs twice in his four-year tenure as head coach (2022, 2023) after only one appearance in the previous 13 years, but they let him go as part of an overhaul. He went 35-33 as Miami’s head coach, but he now gets to be Justin Herbert’s coordinator. Miami is in a hard rebuild and unlikely to be competitive in 2026. His return to Miami, which will be two days after Christmas, will be one to watch, though. It didn’t make the cut, but we’ll also point out that a week earlier, the Dolphins will go to Green Bay to face the Packers, so it’s a return trip for head coach Jeff Hafley and quarterback Malik Willis, though an upset feels unlikely. We chose Romeo Doubs here, joining the defending AFC champs, but there are so many good receiver-vs.-old-teams on the 2026 schedule. Denver Broncos wide receiver Jaylen Waddle takes on his old team (Dolphins), as does new Buffalo Bills wide receiver D.J. Moore (Chicago Bears). Michael Pittman takes on the Indianapolis Colts after they traded him to the Pittsburgh Steelers, and Jauan Jennings faces the San Francisco 49ers following his decision to sign with the Minnesota Vikings. That list doesn’t even count the unsigned wide receivers (Tyreek Hill, Stefon Diggs, Deebo Samuel), who could add even more diva behavior against their former clubs. Kevin Stefanski spent six years as the Cleveland Browns’ head coach, getting the team to the playoffs twice and winning NFL Coach of the Year honors both times. Alas, he went 8-26 the last two years and was cut loose, landing quickly with the Atlanta Falcons, who will likely need a road win here if they want to compete for the NFC South title. Also worth circling are both Falcons games against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, as Baker Mayfield made it clear he remembers that Stefanski never called or texted him after the Browns traded him away. Beefs aplenty! The Los Angeles Rams actively addressed their secondary by raiding the Kansas City Chiefs this spring, giving up four picks (including a first-rounder) to acquire Trent McDuffie, then signing him to a $124 million extension. Jaylen Watson, a former seventh-round pick for Kansas City, signed a three-year, $51 million deal with the Rams in free agency. They won two Super Bowls with the Chiefs, but they’ll go up against them in a high-profile game on a Thursday night in early December. Again, no real ill will here, as Derrick Henry has said he’ll always have love for the Tennessee Titans. He played eight years for Tennessee, rushing for 9,502 yards and 90 touchdowns. He continues to be a dominant bell cow back at age 32 and will likely finish his career with the Baltimore Ravens, but he gets his first game against his old team this season. It’s a big challenge early on as Tennessee tries to show its defense will be better than 28th in scoring, as it was last year. The New York Giants’ only playoff win in the last 14 seasons came with Daniel Jones at quarterback, leading them to a nine-win season in 2022. That got him a massive four-year, $160 million contract, and Jones went 3-13 as a starter in 2023-24 before he was cut loose. He found himself with the Colts last year before tearing his Achilles tendon. Both of these teams have aspirations of improving in 2026, so Jones vs. Jaxson Dart on Thanksgiving weekend is quite the side dish. Trey Hendrickson made the Pro Bowl four straight years with the Cincinnati Bengals, led the NFL with 17.5 sacks in 2024, but this was a nasty split, with holdouts and one-year band-aid deals and a final breakup this offseason. The Bengals are trying to get a terrible defense improved after losing one of their best players, and now they have to face him twice in the division as well. Keeping Joe Burrow healthy and upright is always a Bengals priority, but Hendrickson will be motivated to pile up sacks in these two games. Robert Saleh’s return as an NFL head coach will come against the team that fired him after a 20-36 record in three-plus seasons in 2024. It’s two mostly bad teams squaring off for the right to start 2026 with a dose of optimism. It would be better if this were against the Jets in New York, but you get a little of that in Week 3 when Titans offensive coordinator Brian Daboll gets to go back home to face the Giants, who fired him last season after a 20-40-1 record in New York. There might be some actual hostility here. Baker Mayfield gets his second crack (and his first joining the Tampa Bay Buccaneers) against the team that he led to a playoff win, who later traded him to the Carolina Panthers after giving $230 million guaranteed to Deshaun Watson in 2022. Mayfield wasn’t able to get the revenge he was hoping for against the Browns in his first meeting against his old team, losing to Cleveland in his first game as a member of the Panthers. But Mayfield has settled in nicely with the Bucs since then, and Cleveland is 8-26 in the last two seasons. It’s five times more interesting if this game’s in Cleveland, but the idea of Mayfield getting to play his home opener against the team that shipped him off — potentially against Watson, who didn’t play in the 2022 Browns-Panthers matchup — is peak NFL soap opera. Kenneth Walker III won a Super Bowl MVP with Seattle, rushing for 135 yards in their win over the Patriots, but then he left in free agency, signing a three-year, $43 million deal with Kansas City. Other key players left the champs as well, but he’s arguably the biggest name, and he’s going back to Seattle, so will the K9 fans be barking? Will the 12th Man be more “12 Angry Men?” And how motivated will Seattle’s run defense — allowing a league-low 3.74 yards per carry last year — be to not let him break a big run against them? Walker has said that he knew during the 2025 season that he wouldn’t be returning to Seattle for 2026, so there should be plenty of motivation on his end.​Latest Sports News from FOX Sports

When Mauricio Pochettino officially unveiled his 26-man United States men’s national team squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, one name rang a bell for fans on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border: Alejandro Zendejas. The Club América winger hadn’t been involved in recent camps, yet, when the dust settled on Tuesday’s announcement, the 28-year-old dual-national had secured his ticket to the big dance. But how did a player born in Mexico find his way on the USA roster? You have to look at the cross-border journey of a player built for big stages. Bordertown Roots And Liga MX Rise Zendejas’ story is the epitome of the modern Mexican-American soccer player. Born in the border city of Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, his family moved to El Paso, Texas, when he was less than a year old. He was quickly scooped up by the FC Dallas youth academy. Zendejas tore through the youth ranks in Dallas, which earned him a Homegrown contract in October 2014. By May 2015, he made his MLS debut against rival Houston Dynamo. He was a centerpiece of the U.S. youth national team setup, even repping the Red, White, and Blue at the 2015 FIFA U-17 World Cup, where he was a teammate of Christian Pulisic and Tyler Adams. In 2016, Liga MX royalty came calling. Chivas de Guadalajara signed the youngster, triggering an immediate cultural debate. Chivas famously only fields players of Mexican descent, meaning Zendejas had to publicly declare he would choose to play for Mexico internationally in order to play for Guadalajara. The club enjoyed a successful stint, lifting a Clausura 2017 league title and a Copa MX trophy, but consistent minutes were hard to come by for Zendejas, who wound up moving to Necaxa on a free transfer in 2020. With Necaxa, Zendejas took the next step. He bagged 11 goals and three assists over two seasons, which earned a transfer to Club América— Chivas’ biggest rivals— and one of the biggest, high-pressure clubs in North America, in 2022. He became the creative heartbeat of Las Águilas dynasty, helping lead them to three Liga MX titles in a row (Apertura 2023, Clausura 2024, Apertura 2024). Shortly after his move to América, Zendejas suddenly found himself the subject of an international tug-of-war. USA-Mexico Recruitment Both the USA and Mexico wanted him, which led to a back-and-forth between the U.S. Soccer Federation and Mexican Football Federation, one in which Zendejas initially played for the U.S. at the youth level. Mexico’s senior team even capped him in a couple of non-FIFA friendlies in 2021 and 2022, but a massive standoff ensued over his eligibility paperwork. Zendejas never filed the required one-time switch with FIFA to become eligible to play for Mexico, which was necessary because he had played for the USA in official competition. Rumors began swirling that Zendejas had requested then Mexico boss Gerardo ‘Tata’ Martino to be a starter with the Mexican team and a place in the 2022 World Cup. The Argentine coach described the condition as “extortion.” “The player needed to sign a document and the player didn’t want to sign it,” Mexico’s coach told TUDN after a friendly loss to Paraguay in 2022. “There is no problem with the federation, no problem with the manager, nothing.” Mexico was ordered to forfeit five matches (three at the youth level) and fined 10,000 Swiss francs by FIFA for using Zendejas while he was affiliated with the United States. World Cup Bound With USA The definitive answer from Zendejas came in March 2023, when Zendejas filed his one-time FIFA switch, committing his international future to the United States. “I am very proud of being Mexican-American. Values from both cultures have made me the person I am today,” Zendejas said in a statement afterwards. “I believe in following your heart. Mine tells me that my future lies representing the USA.” The move paid immediate dividends, as he helped the USA secure a Concacaf Nations League trophy the same year. Heading into the USA World Cup roster selection three years later, Zendejas appeared to be on the outside looking in. However, he has been in-form for club, racking up six goals and four assists this season. Earlier this month, he stepped up for América yet again, scoring twice and adding an assist in the Clausura quarterfinals against Pumas. He has only 13 total caps to his name, but Pochettino spoke positively about Zendejas after the roster reveal. “Alejandro offers a number of possibilities. He can play on the wings or in the midfield pockets. He’s a good communicator and has strong relationships with his teammates. He’s a very interesting player tactically.” Making the roster is only the first test for Zendejas, who will be competing for minutes this summer alongside forwards Brenden Aaronson, Folarin Balogun, Ricardo Pepi, Christian Pulisic, Tim Weah and Haji Wright. Regardless of how many minutes Zendejas plays, he has endured one of the most unique journeys to the World Cup, all the way up to the roster reveal.​Latest Sports News from FOX Sports

For all the madness associated with modern roster building in college football, where the transfer portal turns winter into a shopping spree and makes it nearly impossible to track who has gone where, the end result is still rather fun: a spring and summer of prognostication, where figuring out how it all might fit together becomes a months-long game. Will ‘Quarterback A’ really thrive in a spread offense? Will ‘Edge Rusher B’ finally put the pieces together under a new defensive coordinator? And what about ‘Running Back C,’ who waited his turn and climbed the depth chart — without transferring — to eventually challenge for playing time? This is what makes the build up to college football so exciting: The debates are never-ending. So with that in mind, here are 10 potential breakout candidates who could become household names in 2026: * Recruiting rankings and historical data courtesy of 247Sports Height: 6-foot-2Weight: 200 poundsClass: Redshirt seniorPrevious schools: TCU (2022-25) Last season: 272 of 413 (65.9%) for 3,472 yards, 29 TDs and 13 INT in 831 snaps Let’s start with the obvious: It’s unusual for a three-year starting quarterback from the power conferences to be featured on this type of list, especially considering how prolific Hoover was at TCU. He threw for more than 9,600 yards and 71 touchdowns in 36 appearances for the Horned Frogs, guiding the program to a pair of nine-win seasons and two bowl victories during that span. Not a single FBS quarterback will enter the 2026 campaign with more career passing yards or passing touchdowns than Hoover, who has one year of eligibility remaining. He’s expected to be the next great one-and-done quarterback prospect for head coach Curt Cignetti, following in the footsteps of Kurtis Rourke and Fernando Mendoza, both of whom joined the Hoosiers as transfers. Cignetti’s incredible knack for quarterback development helps explain why Hoover is rightly viewed as a breakout candidate this fall despite everything he’s achieved. Rourke had already been named the 2022 MAC Offensive Player of the Year at Ohio before throwing a career-high 29 touchdown passes in his only season at Indiana while leading the Hoosiers to the College Football Playoff. And all Mendoza did after throwing for 3,004 yards and 16 touchdowns as a sophomore at Cal was put together one of the most decorated campaigns in recent memory, punctuated by the Heisman Trophy and a national championship en route to becoming the No. 1 overall pick. Such remarkable precedent suggests that Cignetti can probably elevate Hoover, too. Height: 6-foot-4Weight: 250 poundsClass: SeniorPrevious schools: Georgia (2023-24), Missouri (2025) Last season: 23 total tackles, 9.5 TFL, 9 sacks and 54 pressures in 509 snaps Anyone who watched Miami’s impressive run to the national championship game last season understood the impact that edge rushers Reuben Bain Jr. and Akheem Mesidor had on the Hurricanes’ success. Bain, who became the No. 15 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, led the country in quarterback pressures (83) and tied for 18th in sacks (9.5) while logging more snaps (561) than any other player at his position, according to Pro Football Focus. Mesidor, who was selected No. 22 overall in last month’s draft, finished tied for fourth nationally in quarterback pressures (67) and tied for third in sacks (12.5) while logging the second-most snaps (513) of any player at his position. Together, their production never wavered despite hardly ever leaving the field. To begin filling the voids left by Bain and Mesidor, who became the first Miami defensive players selected in the opening round since 2021, the Hurricanes turned to Wilson via the transfer portal. Originally a five-star prospect in the 2023 recruiting class, Wilson began his collegiate career in a reserve role at Georgia before carving out more playing time in Year 2. He parlayed the remnants of his recruiting pedigree and improved production into a highly priced move to Missouri as the No. 3 overall player in the transfer portal. Once Wilson entered the transfer portal again in January — this time after amassing nine sacks and 54 quarterback pressures for the Tigers — he committed to Miami as the No. 9 transfer and second-best edge rusher in the portal. Height: 6 feetWeight: 190 poundsClass: SophomorePrevious schools: None Last season: 45 catches for 651 yards and 4 TDs in 542 snaps Unfathomable levels of hype and hysteria surrounding five-star quarterback Bryce Underwood rendered him arguably the most scrutinized freshman in college football last season. Few of Underwood’s classmates, if any, were tasked with shouldering such astronomical responsibilities in exchange for such life-altering dollar amounts. Both the donor fundraising apparatus and football program had been reconfigured or recentered around Underwood, whose landscape-altering flip from LSU to Michigan now represents the high-water mark of an otherwise unsightly tenure under former coach Sherrone Moore, an integral figure in the quarterback’s recruitment. But when the dust finally settled last December, following lopsided losses to then-No. 1 Ohio State and then-No. 13 Texas, sandwiched by Moore’s firing, another freshman on Michigan’s roster had outperformed Underwood. Wide receiver Andrew Marsh, a four-star prospect and the No. 117 overall recruit, turned in an exceptional rookie campaign despite a passing offense that ranked 107th nationally. He finished second in the country for receiving yards among true freshmen, trailing only Malachi Toney of Miami. His final tallies of 12 receptions for 189 yards in a comeback win over Northwestern established new single-game program records by a first-year player. If he and Underwood both adapt quickly to new offensive coordinator Jason Beck, then Marsh should have a chance to become Michigan’s first 1,000-yard receiver since Jeremy Gallon in 2013. Height: 6-foot-7Weight: 237 poundsClass: JuniorPrevious schools: None Last season: 33 catches for 433 yards and 7 TDs in 475 snaps In the modern era of college football, where newly hired coaches can flip rosters instantaneously via the transfer portal, the arrival of Lane Kiffin at LSU was always going to catalyze significant change. And right on cue, the Tigers will enter the 2026 season having secured the No. 1 transfer portal class in the country thanks to 17 blue-chip signees and 41 new players overall. Nine of Kiffin’s transfer signees are wide receivers, a position group that lost its top six contributors from last season, which speaks to how significant the Tigers’ rebuild figures to be in certain areas. There are plenty of new faces for quarterback Sam Leavitt to acquaint himself with in the coming months. Green, however, represents a rare holdover from the Brian Kelly era and someone expected to take another step forward in Kiffin’s scheme this fall. After playing sparingly as a freshman, Green came into his own last October by snagging eight catches for 119 yards and a touchdown against South Carolina, kicking off a string of three straight games with a score. From that point forward, Green caught at least four passes and chipped in at least 45 receiving yards in five of his next seven games. A two-touchdown effort against Houston in the Texas Bowl sent a clear message to Kiffin shortly before the transfer portal opened. Green finished the season third on the team in receiving yards and third in receptions, raising the expectations for him this season. Height: 5-foot-9Weight: 205 poundsClass: JuniorPrevious schools: None Last season: 170 carries for 878 yards and 5 TDs in 350 snaps There aren’t many coaches in college football with better reputations for developing overlooked high school prospects than Iowa head coach Kirk Ferentz. And if recent results are any indication of where Ferentz stands, the talent in his program keeps getting better: Just last month, Iowa set a new school record with seven players selected in the 2026 NFL Draft, most in school history for a single year. It also extended the Hawkeyes’ eye-catching streak of 48 consecutive years with at least one player drafted. Could Moulton be next in line? If he is, the development arc to get there will mirror everything the Hawkeyes have stood for under Ferentz, beginning with an unheralded high school recruitment. A native of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where high-major prospects are everywhere, Moulton was the No. 1,473 overall player and No. 13 tailback in the 2023 recruiting cycle when he committed to Iowa over UConn. No other power-conference program offered him a scholarship. Since then, all Moulton has done is increase his production from 93 yards and two touchdowns as a freshman, to 473 yards and three touchdowns as a sophomore, to 878 yards and five touchdowns as a junior. Moulton averaged better than 5 yards per carry in six of his final eight appearances last season, two of which came against ranked opponents, and navigated the entire year without losing a fumble. Height: 5-foot-10 Weight: 210 poundsClass: JuniorPrevious schools: None Last season: 24 carries for 224 yards and 5 TDs in 47 snaps One of the more memorable images produced at this year’s NFL Scouting Combine was shared on social media by Ja’Juan Seider, the associate head coach and running backs coach from Notre Dame. The image showed Seider wearing a white Fighting Irish sweatshirt and flanked by four running back prospects taking the field in Indianapolis, all of whom he’d coached: Nicholas Singleton and Kaytron Allen at Penn State, where Seider worked from 2018-24 under former coach James Franklin; and Jeremiyah Love and Jadarian Price at Notre Dame, a program he joined ahead of the 2025 season. The unspoken message — that any running back wishing to be drafted should come play for Seider — was resoundingly clear. Each of his pupils from that photo went on to be selected within the first six rounds of last month’s draft, including two in the opening 32 picks alone. Seider’s impressive track record makes placing a wager on Williams, the projected starter at Notre Dame, feel like a relatively safe bet given how effective the Fighting Irish were at running the ball last season: tied for third nationally at 5.69 yards per carry overall. And while the bulk of that production was unquestionably provided by Love (1,372 yards; 18 TDs) and Price (674 yards; 11 TDs), who brought Notre Dame to within a whisker of reaching the College Football Playoff for a second consecutive year, the explosiveness flashed by Williams in reserve duty caught more than a few people’s attention. Williams averaged a staggering 9.3 yards per carry and found the end zone once every 4.8 attempts. He gained more than 200 of his 224 total rushing yards after contact, according to Pro Football Focus, and did not fumble. Height: 6 feetWeight: 198 poundsClass: Redshirt seniorPrevious schools: Alabama (2022-23), Florida State (2024-25) Last season: 76 total tackles, 2 TFL, 2 FF, 4 INT in 674 snaps Having added just 32 transfers over the previous four offseasons combined — a reflection, in part, of the resources Ohio State poured into player retention — head coach Ryan Day added 17 new players to compile the sport’s seventh-best portal class overall, trailing only Penn State in the Big Ten. At least five of those newcomers are expected to be plug-and-play starters for a defense that lost seven players to the NFL Draft following an incredible first season under coordinator Matt Patricia. No absence will loom larger than that of safety Caleb Downs, a two-time unanimous All-American and eventual first-round pick. That’s where Little, the son of former NFL safety Earl Little, enters the mix for Ohio State after earning second-team All-ACC honors last season. Originally a four-star prospect in the 2022 class, Little signed with Alabama after taking additional official visits to USC, Florida State and Oregon. He made just eight appearances in two seasons for the Crimson Tide before entering the transfer portal ahead of the 2024 campaign, ultimately landing at Florida State. Even though the Seminoles finished below .500 each of the last two years, Little blossomed into an effective Swiss Army Knife in the secondary. His snap count for 2026 was split between free safety (376), box safety (226) and slot corner (65), which makes Little a potential candidate to fill Downs’ roving role. Little did miss the tail end of spring practice while undergoing a minor knee procedure. Height: 6-foot-2Weight: 200 poundsClass: JuniorPrevious schools: NC State (2024-25) Last season: 39 catches for 629 yards and 5 TDs in 460 snaps College football fans are undoubtedly familiar with the oft-repeated narrative that says USC still doesn’t have the requisite size and strength in the trenches to compete for a national championship under head coach Lincoln Riley. And the program’s spotty record in the NFL Draft largely confirms those suspicions: zero offensive linemen drafted in the first six rounds since 2021; one defensive lineman drafted in the first seven rounds during that same period. That story is far different at wide receiver, a position where Riley and his staff have produced five draft picks over the last four years combined, including two early-round choices last month alone in Makai Lemon (Round 1, No. 20 overall) and Ja’Kobi Lane (Round 3, No. 80 overall). Which means that for the first time in what feels like ages, the Trojans are entering a season with legitimate questions about their receiving corps, especially when factoring in the additional departures of tight ends Lake McRee and Walker Lyons from last year’s squad. That’s why the addition of Anderson, who was rated the No. 11 overall transfer and No. 3 wide receiver in the portal, was so significant as Riley attempts to lift USC into the College Football Playoff for the first time. Anderson is far and away the most experienced, and most proven, player for a position group that will likely lean heavily on underclassmen (Tanook Hines, Zacharyus Williams) and true freshmen (Kayden Dixon-Wyatt, Trent Mosley) alike. Put simply, Anderson must deliver if the Trojans want to reach their potential. Height: 6-foot-4Weight: 250 poundsClass: SophomorePrevious schools: Penn State (2025) Last season: 8 total tackles, 3 TFL, 1 sack and 15 pressures in 150 snaps After successfully reinventing Ohio State’s defense during an impressive run from 2022-24, the last of which was punctuated with a national championship, defensive coordinator Jim Knowles had enough cachet to effectively handpick his next role. He opted for a new challenge at Penn State, where head coach James Franklin agreed to pay him $3.1 million per year, an eye-catching, market-resetting sum. But almost nothing about the 2025 campaign went according to plan for the Nittany Lions, including the defense. Knowles’ unit finished 56th nationally against the run (142.5 yards per game), 87th in opponent third-down conversion rate (40.9%), and 64th in opponent red zone touchdown rate (58.8%). The two sides parted ways after a tumultuous season, and Knowles was quickly hired for the same role at Tennessee. Despite the ugliness of it all, Knowles still made enough of an impression for several players to follow him via the transfer portal. That group includes safety Dejuan Lane (No. 334 transfer, No. 29 S), linebacker Amare Campbell (No. 144 transfer, No. 10 LB), and defensive tackle Xavier Gilliam (No. 54 transfer, No. 7 DL). But the most notable addition to the Volunteers’ roster this offseason was Coleman, a former blue-chip recruit who flashed elite talent in limited action last year, enough to leave Penn State fans hoping new coach Matt Campbell could keep him. Coleman missed most of spring practice and a series of team activities due to what head coach Josh Heupel described as “off-the-field” issues. If he does return to the program, he is widely expected to win a starting spot in Knowles’ defense this fall. Height: 6-foot-2Weight: 201 poundsClass: Redshirt juniorPrevious schools: Ohio State (2023), NC State (2024-25) Last season: 33 catches for 441 yards and 2 TDs in 532 snaps In 2023, during the thick of Brian Hartline’s tenure as Ohio State’s wide receivers coach, Rogers was among the recruits targeted by the sport’s unquestioned wideout whisperer — an honor for any rising star at that position. Two classes prior, Hartline had signed Emeka Egbuka and Marvin Harrison Jr., a pair of future first-round picks. One year down the line, Hartline would add a budding phenom named Jeremiah Smith, now the best receiver in college football. The same recruiting cycle that included Rogers also featured Carnell Tate, the No. 4 overall pick in this year’s NFL Draft. Simply being prioritized by Hartline and Ohio State carried real weight given the program’s receiver pipeline. But it never quite worked out for Rogers at Ohio State. He appeared in four games as a true freshman without recording a catch before entering the transfer portal, ultimately landing at NC State. He stepped into a larger role almost immediately, logging at least 380 snaps in each season and finishing with 68 receptions for 919 yards and three touchdowns. That production made him the No. 58 overall transfer and No. 15 wideout in the portal this past winter, which propelled him to another lofty platform at Alabama. Now, Rogers is expected to compete for a starting role opposite former five-star Ryan Coleman-Williams.​Latest Sports News from FOX Sports
