Carlos Hyde wanted to outplay the better-known No. 28 on the field, Adrian Peterson.
He did that and more, and Jim Tomsula’s San Francisco 49ers produced a victory in his debut as head coach minus the interim status he had for the final game of 2010.

Something happened during the NFL’s season opener between the New England Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers.
“We were listening to the Patriots’ radio broadcast for the majority of the first half through our headsets,” Steelers coach Mike Tomlin told reporters follow a 28-21 loss. “We will let the league officials handle it.”
Except Pittsburgh didn’t let the league officials handle it. They wrote about it on the team’s official website and came within an inch of accusing New England of cheat
The Eagles have released Tim Tebow, ending the former Heisman Trophy winner’s bid to win the No. 3 quarterback job for Chip Kelly in Philadelphia.

All NFL teams must reduce their rosters to 53 players by 4 p.m. ET on Saturday, but Tebow appeared to be in contention for a roster spot after Philadelphia traded Matt Barkley to the Arizona Cardin

The Redskins are planning on starting Kirk Cousins at quarterback in their regular-season opener against the Dolphins, sources told ESPN’s Dianna Russini.
Cousins, who has started nine games over his first three seasons in the NFL, would get the starting nod over Robert Griffin III, who is awaiting clearance to play after suffering concussion like symptoms Aug. 20 in a preseason game.
Cousins, 27, is expected to start Saturday night’s preseason game against the Ravens. The 27-year-old has be
Tim Tebow of the Philadelphia Eagles warms up prior to the game against the Indianapolis Colts on Aug. 16, 2015 at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.
In wake of the fights breaking out at joint practices—the Rams and Cowboys this week, the Redskins and Texans earlier in August as depicted on HBO’s Hard Knocks—it isn’t that shocking to hear that there was nearly a fight between the Eagles and Ravens Wednesday.
That is, until Tim Tebow intervened.
From reports, it was unclear exactly who

If it’s preseason it must be time for Robert Griffin III to utter meaningless quotes that are ridiculed for his complete lack of self awareness. And (checks watch), it’s time.
Here was the Redskins quarterback, who should no longer be referred to as “RG3” because nicknames are for people who aren’t in quarterback battles with Kirk Cousins, speaking to Alex Parker of Washington’s ABC affiliate right before the ‘Skins broke camp (via DC Sports Bog):

The NFL confirmed Wednesday that it is reviewing the incident between former New York Jets player IK Enemkpali and quarterback Geno Smith, and the linebacker could face penalties under the league’s personal conduct policy.

In March, Arizona Cardinals coach Bruce Arians was asked when the NFL would have a female coach.
The answer was Monday.
The Cardinals hired Jen Welter as an assistant coaching intern for training camp and the preseason to work with inside linebackers. She is believed to be the first female coach of any kind in the NFL.
“Someone asked me yesterday, ‘When are we going to have female coaches?'” Arians said. “The minute they can prove they can make a player better, they’ll be hired.”

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has upheld Patriots quarterback Tom Brady‘s four-game suspension for violating the league’s policy on integrity of the game, the league announced Tuesday.
Brady was suspended four games in May after footballs used by the Patriots during the AFC Championship Game against the Colts were found to be inflated under the minimum level prescribed by the league. Along with the NFL Players Association, Brady challenged his penalty and testified before Goodell at an appea
