Robinson provides the dynamic playmaking ability that makes him an every-down threat, giving the team confidence in their primary option. However, depth remains crucial in the NFL, and the Falcons recognized an opportunity to strengthen their backfield. The team made that move official Tuesday by signing Jashaun Corbin from the UFL’s San Antonio Brahmas. “BREAKING: The Atlanta Falcons are signing @XFLBrahmas RB Jashaun Corbin, per league source,” James Larsen of Pro Football Newsroom reported. “Corbin led the UFL in rushing yards (514), with 4 TD’s to his name.

With the Pacers now on the verge of elimination, Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle talked about Haliburton after the game. “He’s not 100%. It’s pretty clear.

The Cincinnati Bengals have emerged as contenders behind Joe Burrow’s leadership, while the Baltimore Ravens continue their success with Lamar Jackson directing the offense. The Pittsburgh Steelers have remained consistently competitive under Mike Tomlin, though they’ve searched for answers at quarterback since Ben Roethlisberger’s retirement. That search appears to be over with Aaron Rodgers now in the fold, and the expectations are shifting dramatically. ESPN’s Peter Schrager believes this could be the year Pittsburgh takes the next step. “I’ve been very high on the Steelers the last few days, so high that today on First Take, I suggested they could be Super Bowl contenders. The reason I say that is because they didn’t just make these moves to get to where they were these last few years, which is a nice Saturday or Sunday afternoon Wildcard game...

However, FOX Sports host Emmanuel Acho still doesn’t like their chances. The former NFL player said Indiana Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle has too much of an edge over Thunder coach Mark Daigneault. “I do not think Rick Carlisle will get outcoached more times than not in the final three games of this series,” Acho said on “The Facility.” . @EmmanuelAcho is putting his trust in Rick Carlisle to lead the Pacers to win the NBA Finals: “Rick Carlisle will not get out-coached more times than not in final 3 games of this series.” pic.twitter.com/Tdkz1UMpA9 — The Facility (@TheFacilityFS1) June 16, 2025 As simple as that argument might seem on the surface, Acho does have a valid point.
