You know the NFL has a problem when quarterbacks are defending the people who get paid to hit them. But that, somehow, is reality in 2018. “I’m kind of getting fed up with it,” former NFL quarterback Michael Vick said on Tiki and Tierney. “These last two calls that was made on Clay Matthews really...

When Jameis Winston received a three-game suspension to begin the year, it was easy to assume that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers would struggle, especially with games at New Orleans and against Philadelphia in Weeks 1-2.

Former Steeler and two-time Super Bowl champion Hines Ward dropped by CBS Sports Radio on Thursday to discuss the drama in Pittsburgh – from Le’Veon Bell to Antonio Brown to everything in between.

Alvin Kamara was perhaps the most explosive running back in football last season, totaling 1,554 yards and 13 touchdowns on just 201 touches.

Nike has made Colin Kaepernick the face of its latest ad campaign – a controversial move applauded in some corners yet reviled in others. “It’s definitely a lightning rod, and they've been known to not be scared of that,” tennis legend Andre Agassi said on Tiki and Tierney. “The history is what it...

The Jacksonville Jaguars were perhaps the most surprising team in the NFL last season. They hadn't made the payoffs since 2007 but won the AFC South and reached the AFC Championship.

Rick Piitno dropped by CBS Sports Radio on Tuesday to discuss numerous topics, including his career, fall from grace, and new book, “Pitino: My Story.” “I wrote this book for one reason: it gives closure to a career,” Pitino said on Tiki and Tierney. “I don’t think I’ll ever coach again. I do...
