Will Philip Rivers leave St. Michael to become the next coach at N.C. State? Here's my take from covering him for the past 6 seasons. #alpreps al.com/highschoolsports/2026…

Will Philip Rivers become the next head coach at N.C. State?

It's not unreasonable to think future NFL Hall of Fame QB Philip Rivers could return to N.C. State as head coach.

Ryan Kelly loved his time in Minnesota. He loved his neighbors. He loved his teammates. He loved the way Kevin O’Connell and the Vikings’ org supported him. This is a story about the toll concussions take, and why it’s so simultaneously hard to let go: nytimes.com/athletic/7711615…

Ryan Kelly wasn’t ready to end his NFL career. Concussions left him with no choice (Gift Article)

After 10 seasons in the NFL, Kelly faced a brutally tough decision this past offseason. Was it finally time to hang it up?
