Raiders Lead the Free-Agent Makeover, Top the Five-Team Improvement List

Sports Illustrated ranks the five NFL teams that improved the most in free agency this offseason, placing the Las Vegas Raiders at No. 1 for a cohesive coaching alignment and impactful signings (including Linderbaum and strengthened edge/linebacker depth) that could lift their competitiveness; No. 2 the San Francisco 49ers, boosted by Mike Evans and interior pass-rush upgrade Odighizuwa; No. 3 the Denver Broncos, with Jaylen Waddle adding explosiveness and a stronger offense and defense; No. 4 the Los Angeles Rams, rebuilding the cornerback room around Watson and McDuffie; and No. 5 the Houston Texans, adding Braden Smith, Wyatt Teller, David Montgomery and Reed Blankenship to stabilize the O-line and defense. The piece frames these moves as a potential catalyst for better results and schedules this coming season.

If it lined up, Rams would’ve traded Davante Adams for A.J. Brown, McVay says

Rams coach Sean McVay said a Davante Adams trade was on the table if L.A. could land A.J. Brown, and acquiring Brown would have made trading Adams ‘best for our team.’ The Rams didn’t pursue Brown because of medical-record concerns, keeping Adams’ future in play as the team weighed Brown’s and Adams’ 2026 salaries alongside Puka Nacua’s extension and a March 15 roster bonus.

Biting allegations surface as Rams WR Puka Nacua faces provocative footage and lawsuits

Madison Atiabi, the accuser in Puka Nacua’s biting allegations, has filed a restraining order and a defamation lawsuit. TMZ video shows Atiabi twerking near a sleeping Nacua in a van after the alleged bite, while Atiabi says he collapsed unconscious for hours. Nacua’s attorney denies an antisemitic remark and says the bite was “horseplay.” The case could affect Nacua’s looming contract talks after a career year in 2025.

Nacua lawyers allegedly offered 'make it all better' weeks before the suit, attorney claims

Madison Atiabi’s attorney alleges that, about six weeks after a Dec. 31 bite, a representative of Puka Nacua’s legal team tried to offer a settlement to “make it all better,” leading to a mediation that didn’t resolve the dispute. Atiabi has since filed a restraining-order request and a lawsuit; Nacua’s camp denies antisemitic remarks and says the bite was horseplay, while prosecutors investigate and videos are presented by both sides. The civil case continues, with a potential criminal review ongoing.

Rams WR Puka Nacua Faces Lawsuit Over Alleged Antisemitic Remark and Bite

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua was sued in Los Angeles for assault and battery after a woman alleges he made an antisemitic remark and bit her on New Year’s Eve; the complaint also cites gender violence and negligence, while Nacua’s lawyer denies the antisemitic claim and calls the bites horseplay. The case follows a prior incident in which Nacua apologized for an antisemitic gesture during a livestream.

Nacua’s Lawyer Denies Antisemitic Bite Claims, Plans Defamation Action

Puka Nacua’s attorney denied the Dec. 31 bite and antisemitic remarks, saying the accusations are false and a defamation suit will be filed; Atiabi sought a restraining order in Los Angeles, which a judge temporarily denied ahead of an April 14 hearing. The defense asserts the case is not sexual or domestic-violence related and cites a sober witness who disputes the remarks, while noting Nacua’s December apology for an antisemitic livestream moment. Mediation reportedly included pressure to publicize statements and possible blackmail.

Nacua on the clock for a big Rams payday as WR market soars

Rams wideout Puka Nacua, entering the final year of his rookie deal, is positioned for a lucrative extension as the NFL’s wide‑receiver market climbs—driven by Jaxon Smith‑Njigba’s contract and impacting peers like George Pickens. A four‑year, about $43 million per year new‑money APY could yield a five‑year, roughly $177.7 million deal, with teams possibly waiting until summer to gauge the market as the salary cap continues to rise. Nacua’s three‑season totals (313 catches, 4,191 yards, 21 TDs) underscore his value and why delaying could only push the price higher.

Rams Eye Anthony Richardson in Trade Talks Amid QB Shuffle

Reports tie the Rams to trading for Anthony Richardson from the Colts, potentially adding a lottery-ticket QB behind Matthew Stafford. Richardson’s NFL future is uncertain, so L.A. could pursue a modest cost (likely day-three pick plus guaranteed money) in a multi-team rumor list that also includes the Buccaneers, Chiefs, Lions, Packers, and Ravens. The Rams currently lack a clear backup beyond Stetson Bennett, and Jimmy Garoppolo remains a free agent who could return, but the deal remains speculative.
