It’s also impossible to overlook the reality that Aikman’s desire to double dip by working for the Dolphins and ESPN could make him less attractive. Aikman can’t enter team facilities, and he can’t attend practice. Others who don’t work for an NFL team (or who don’t partially own the team) face no such restrictions.

Amazon Prime Video has agreed to a contract extension with Kirk Herbstreit to remain as its NFL game analyst on “Thursday Night Football," per The Athletic’s
@AndrewMarchand
.

Herbstreit is in the final season of his initial five-year deal with Prime Video, and his new deal is shorter than his initial contract.

The agreement also gives Amazon flexibility to move on if one of its top targets, like Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay, were to become available.

The Vikings have scratched and clawed their way to a 3-0 record. Dating back to last year, Minnesota has won eight in a row.

They’ve done it with defense and special teams. Their offense, to date, has not been good enough.

Via NBC Sports research, the Vikings could become the first team in the Super Bowl era to win four straight games without gaining 250 or more yards.

Currently, the Vikings have the worst offense in the NFL, with an average output of 238.3 yards per game. (The Titans rank 31st, with 249.3.)

Kirk Cousins is still a bridge quarterback for the Raiders, holding down the starting job until No. 1 overall pick Fernando Mendoza is ready. Alex Smith did that for Patrick Mahomes for one season, and Aaron Rodgers held off Jordan Love for three seasons.

Cousins has already served in that role once, starting 14 games for the Falcons in 2024 before they turned to first-round rookie Michael Penix. (Cousins ended up starting eight games last season when Penix was injured.)

With the Raiders off to a 3-0 start, though, no one is calling for Mendoza.

“We’re just worried about playing the next game, and [Cousins is] playing this next game,” Raiders coach Klint Kubiak said, via Mark Anderson of the Associated Press. “Fernando’s ready to go when called upon.”

Cousins has won seven games in a row, the league’s longest active streak. He can become the first quarterback since the 1970 merger to win four consecutive games for two teams in the same streak.

Cousins has thrown nine touchdown passes and three interceptions and his passer rating of 107.2 ranks eighth.

Sometimes NFL officials get it right. Sometimes they get it wrong. And when that happens, the NFL often acknowledges the mistake to its teams, as it did with the Los Angeles Rams and their controversial pass interference call against the Denver Broncos.

The NFL has apparently admitted its officials were wrong to call pass interference on Rams defensive back Josh Wallace in the Sunday Night Football game.

That call almost certainly cost the Rams the game.

Rams coach Sean McVay said Wednesday he was told by the league that Wallace should not have been called for defensive pass interference on that play.

Huge if true.

The NFL did not immediately respond to an email from OutKick seeking confirmation that the league acknowledged the officiating mistake to McVay. So we're going on his word only.

#Rams HC Sean McVay said on Wednesday that the NFL admitted it got a late DPI call wrong against the Broncos.

Today, the league sent a memo to teams reminding them that all conversations regarding officiating must remain confidential.
