If history is any indicator, it’s a sure thing that the NFL’s postseason field will feature new entrants in the 2022 season. But who makes the cut?

Several players yet to see their first regular-season NFL action are making waves in the preseason, but others are trending in the wrong direction.

Jimmy Garoppolo would represent a significant step up from Jacoby Brissett as a fill-in for Deshaun Watson, who was suspended Thursday for 11 games.

The NFL’s playoff picture typically undergoes a radical shift every year, with at least four teams swapping out in each season since 1990.

As the preseason kicks into high gear, several former NFL first-round picks find themselves fighting for their livelihood.

With a little less than one month until the NFL regular season begins, there already looks to be a pecking order emerging enter the preseason.

Browns shouldn’t give up season if Deshaun Watson can’t play. Baker Mayfield has shown he can win there, and doing it again would appeal to suitors.

Siragusa won a Super Bowl title with the Ravens and served as a popular Fox NFL sideline reporter after his retirement.

With training camps a couple months away, it’s time to take stock of a wild offseason of movement in the NFL. Who’s ticking up and who’s sliding down?
