The recent switch in streaming strategy is largely attributed to delivering content where a substantial user base already exists. 'For 14 seasons, NFL Top 100 has delivered the ultimate peer-ranked countdown in sports,' said Ross Ketover, NFL Films senior executive, in the official statement. 'This year, we're bringing it to where fans already are — on X — with a fast-paced format that honors the original series.'
The post further reveals that NFL-affiliated accounts already command over 50 million followers on the platform where 1 million authors attracted 6 million posts in the 2025 season. Hence, the shift aims to 'thrive and fuel year-round conversation' in a medium where the necessary discourse already exists.
'Delivering original content experiences with world-class partners, especially around sports, is a top priority for X,' said Mitchell Smith, Head of Original Content at X, in his statement. 'We are excited to work with the NFL and NFL Films to launch our first original series together, and reinvent a classic for a digital-first audience.'

This pattern will continue till August 29 and the final Top 10 players will be revealed in the finale episode on September 1. The finale will be streamed live on the NFL Network at 8 PM ET.
'This marks the 15th consecutive year that current NFL players have voted to determine the top 100. The 2025 edition embraces a short-form, digital-first format designed for today's fans — blending NFL Films' signature storytelling with exclusive footage, commentary, and a social-native viewing experience,' the post added.

Shedeur Sanders lands on CFL negotiation list: Will it affect his NFL future?
Shedeur Sanders has barely had time to unpack his bags in Cleveland, and already, another team is eyeing his future. The Toronto Argonauts, reigning Grey Cup champions, recently placed the rookie quarterback on their 45-man negotiation list, per Newsweek.

(Photo by Jason Miller / GETTY IMAGES NORTH AMERICA / Getty Images via AFP)(Getty Images via AFP) Sanders, who just fell to the fifth round in the 2025 NFL Draft, after being passed over by multiple teams, was scooped up by the Browns. 'It's time to take advantage of the opportunity—gotta go in there with a different mindset; and lead the program in whatever role I gotta be in until it's my time,' Sanders said after being drafted, per ESPN. ALSO READ| Shedeur Sanders' first traffic-stop video goes viral as officer says, 'He doesn't know who you are' Coming off a monster season at Colorado, where he threw for over 4,100 yards, 37 touchdowns, and completed 74% of his passes, Deion Sanders' son was viewed by many as one of the most polished passers in college football. But despite the production, his draft stock fell, partly due to concerns about his pocket timing and whispers about a speeding ticket that reportedly raised character questions in some war rooms. Why the CFL is watching Shedeur Sanders closely Enter the Argonauts, who added Sanders to their Canadian Football League (CFL) negotiation list, which gives them exclusive rights to sign him if he ever expresses interest in heading north. It's a routine manoeuvre in the Canadian league, but it actually proves how valuable Sanders' potential is even outside the NFL. Toronto has used this tactic before with former NFL talents like Ricky Williams, Chad Kelly, and Johnny Manziel. For now, Shedeur signed a four-year rookie deal worth $4.65 million, including a $447,000 signing bonus. The CFL's minimum rookie salary—around $70,000 CAD doesn't even come close. ALSO READ| Shedeur Sanders admits making 'wrong choices' amid Ohio speeding controversy Quarterbacks coach Alex Van Pelt has been pushing Sanders hard, especially on footwork and blitz recognition. Sanders will go toe-to-toe in training camp with other backups for the coveted QB2 spot behind Watson. If he makes the 53-man roster, the Argonauts' claim is just a footnote. But if he ends up on the practice squad or faces roster cuts, the CFL window opens, and Toronto would have a 10-day exclusive period to try to woo him.

How Travis Kelce Was Taylor Swift's ‘Anchor' in Emotional Six-Year Masters Battle
Taylor Swift's reclaiming of her original master recordings marked the emotional closure of a long, public battle, but what made it unforgettable was having Travis Kelce beside her. Six years after her catalog was sold without her consent, Swift bought back the rights to her first six albums in May 2025. Doing so while in a supportive, grounded relationship made the achievement even more personal. It was a 'turning point' in a relationship that's becoming more serious by the day. A career milestone meets personal stability Swift's acquisition of her first six albums meant the end of a nearly six-year battle that began when her original catalog was sold without her approval. According to People, close sources to the pop star described the milestone as 'emotional and empowering' for her, and noted she finally felt 'relieved' and at peace. But what elevated the moment, per the insider, was Kelce's presence. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end offered steady support through the emotional process and 'was honored to support her and he wouldn't have wanted it any other way.' A turning point for Taylor and Travis After wrapping the Eras Tour, the 14-time Grammy award winner has stepped back from the stage, opting instead for a slower-paced summer spent between New York, Nashville, and private getaways with Kelce. As the publication's source states, the downtime has allowed their relationship to grow in ways their previously hectic schedules never allowed. For the first time, Swift won't be juggling a world tour as the Derrick Thomas MVP heads into the NFL season—something insiders say will allow her to fully support him the way he's supported her. 'It's been a turning point for their relationship in a lot of ways,' says the source. With both facing focal moments in their careers, the foundation they're building together looks stronger than ever.
