Raiders | Oakland to hire Edgar Bennett
The Oakland Raiders will hire former Green Bay Packers offensive coordinator Edgar Bennett as their new wide receivers coach, according to sources.
Footballguys View: Bennett was the Packers WR coach from 2011-2014 before taking over as the offensive coordinator in 2015. The Packers let him go as their coordinator earlier this month and he wasn’t out of work for long. Bennett will be tasked with getting the most out of Amari Cooper in 2018 and beyond.
Eagles | LeGarrette Blount scores TD

Browns | Cleveland has talked with Brock Olivo
The Cleveland Browns have interviewed former Denver Broncos special teams coordinator Brock Olivo for their special teams coordinator position.
Footballguys View: Olivo’s special team unit in Denver was atrocious this year and he was removed after only one season. There was some buzz about him getting interesting from college teams as a head coach.
Eagles | Nelson Agholor accounts for 44 yards
Philadelphia Eagles WR Nelson Agholor ran two times for 20 yards and caught all three of his targeted passes for 24 yards in a 15-10 NFC Division Series victory over the Atlanta Falcons.
Eagles | Jay Ajayi effective in divisional clash
Philadelphia Eagles RB Jay Ajayi ran 15 times for 54 yards and caught three passes for 44 yards in a 15-10 win over the Atlanta Falcons.
Footballguys View: Ajayi lost a fumble early in the game, but he made up for that with the rest of his play. He gets about the same amount of touches per game for the Eagles, and that number did not rise much for the team’s first postseason game. We’ll see if Ajayi gets a larger role in the NFC Championship Game next week.
NFL | Calvin Johnson not coming back
Retired WR Calvin Johnson said he is not interested in playing professional football again and is enjoying his time off the field.
Footballguys View: Every year (just like with Barry Sanders years ago), we have to check in with Megatron to see if there’s a chance we could see him again. Johnson also said he does not want to be a coach because it would take up too much of his time.
