Ditka: A certain magic still lingers in the very name. Don’t miss the premiere of NFL FIlms’ “A Football Life: Mike Ditka” Thursday at 10 p.m. ET on NFL Network.

Be sure to tune into NFL Network Tuesday afternoon as free agent wide receiver Terrell Owens drops by after his public workout intended to impress NFL scouts.

On this week’s edition of the NFL Fantasy Live podcast, NFL.com insider Jason La Canfora visits to talk about Ryan Mathews.

It took only two weeks of the season — and one of the worst starts in NFL history — for Chiefs coach Todd Haley to be placed on the hot seat.

Free-agent QB David Garrard is out of sight but not completely out of mind.

OK, so Randy Moss says he’s done. And then? NFL Network information man Jason La Canfora isn’t sold.

NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora checked in Thursday on “NFL Total Access” to discuss one of the secrets behind Panthers rookie QB Cam Newton’s record-breaking debut, which running back will have the most carries for the Texans in Week 2 and the latest in Terrelle Pryor’s appeal process.

Texans WR Kevin Walter left Sunday’s 34-7 victory over the Colts with a shoulder injury, and the initial reports suggest he will be out for a long period of time, if not the entire season.

Seahawks starting left tackle Russell Okung didn’t make it through the first quarter of his team’s opening preseason game against the Chargers on Thursday night before running into more injury problems.

Really, all it takes is for one meddling columnist to connect some wayward dots and then … sound the Brett Favre Watch!

The Redskins have informed longtime starting center Casey Rabach that he will be released.

Everyone remembers their first day of summer camp, right? Well. Today’s the day for nine lucky teams, and the rest of the 32 NFL teams open training camp in the next few days. With so much to do in so little time, every camp should have some interesting storylines to follow.

Bucky Brooks and Steve Wyche cross their fingers this is the final podcast during the lockout and give it a proper sendoff, N’awlins style. Also, they cover free agency, the Bengals’ offense and more.

Handicapping the market for Reggie Bush, NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora would be “surprised” if Bush’s next home isn’t in Philadelphia, St. Louis or Miami.

One of the major storylines of the locked-out offseason has been where Kevin Kolb will land when the lockout finally ends, and in the four months of non-activity the Eagles’ backup quarterback has ascended to the status of an elixir for the handful of teams still needing a starter.
