Winners and losers following the Eagles' 2025 offseason
Winners and losers following the Eagles' 2025 offseason As we await the arrival of training camp, here are the winners and losers of the Philadelphia Eagles' offseason. The Eagles have moved past Super Bowl 59 and are locked in on having a singular focus on the 2025 NFL regular season. Howie Roseman orchestrated another roster makeover in free agency, the 10-player NFL Draft, and several talented undrafted free agents. The Organized Team Activities and now the Mandatory Minicamp have concluded, and Philadelphia will get a five-week break before returning to the NovaCare Complex. Training Camp begins in late July – July 22 is report day, with a July 23 practice to follow – and a surprise move or two could still be on the way, but the majority of the work has been completed. As we await the arrival of training camp, here are the winners and losers of the Eagles' offseason. Winners Nick Sirianni Sirianni landed a new contract during the offseason. With no contract disputes or severe injuries, Sirianni confirmed that all 90 players on the Eagles roster were in attendance, giving some insight into the urgency of this season and the leadership in place. WR Jahan Dotson With A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith working out at their respective camps, Jalen Hurts was able to build a connection with Jahan Dotson and other Eagles pass catchers. Dotson reportedly didn't have any drops during the off-season, and he's in line for a breakout season in a contract year. OL Tyler Steen Tyler Steen appeared to take all of the snaps as the starting right guard, as he had during OTAs. Eagles coach Nick Sirianni was far from crowing Steen the winner when asked about the positional battle before practice. QB Kyle McCord The St. Joseph's Prep product mixed in throws to other receivers as he split third-unit snaps with Dorian Thompson-Robinson. He's not nipping at Tanner McKee's heels, but McCord will definitely make the roster. WR Danny Gray Gray was a topic of discussion around the NovaCare Complex, and the player we featured in a recent article continues to turn heads at Eagles practice. Gray signed with the Eagles' practice squad in mid-September after failing to make the 49ers' 53-man roster at the end of training camp. He wasn't elevated for a single game during the 2024 campaign. Losers Kenyon Green Acquired in a trade for C.J. Gardner-Johnson, Green had a quiet offseason. Tyler Steen appeared to take all of the snaps as the starting right guard, as he had during OTAs. Eagles coach Nick Sirianni, when asked about the positional battle before practice, listed Matt Pryor, Trevor Keegan, Darian Kinnard, and Brett Toth as also being in the mix when training camp begins next month. LB Jihaad Campbell First-round picks are essential, and Campbell was the first linebacker selected by Philadelphia in the first round since 1979. Campbell wasn't able to practice much this spring, but the Eagles are setting clear expectations for his summer. The good news for Campbell is that he should be able to maintain his conditioning as he rehabs that surgically repaired shoulder. QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson The Eagles acquired the former UCLA star in a trade that sent Kenny Pickett to Cleveland. Upon arriving, Thompson-Robinson discussed playing Chess with Jalen Hurts and offered elite athleticism at the position. Fast-forward a few weeks, and Philadelphia drafted former Syracuse quarterback Kyle McCord in the sixth round. Philadelphia will carry four quarterbacks throughout the summer, but Roseman drafted McCord, and he fits what the Eagles do with the deep ball. Loser-DB Sydney Brown The Eagles traded C.J. Gardner-Johnson to Houston for Kenyon Green, opening up a starting role for Sydney Brown or Tristin McCollum. Brown is a physical safety who is stout on special teams but doesn't operate efficiently in space or match up against elite pass catchers. Enter Andrew Mukuba, a Swiss army knife from Texas who could keep Brown relegated to special team duties. Mukuba can play the slot, operate in space, and play with range, drawing comparisons to Gardner-Johnson. CB Eli Ricks The Eagles lost Darius Slay (Steelers), James Bradberry (free agent), Avonte Maddox (Lions), and Isaiah Rodgers (Vikings) in free agency and signed Adoree' Jackson. Even with those moves, Philadelphia didn't draft a cornerback until the fifth round when they selected Mac McWilliams out of UCF. Williams (5-10, 191) will add some depth on the outside and in the slot, but he was a fifth-round pick for a reason. Ringo is the biggest winner, and although he'll battle Jackson, Ricks is barely mentioned when it comes to first team reps.

Minnesota Vikings Tight End Has No Interest in Contract Extension
The NFL offseason is cruising by. This week, the Minnesota Vikings will hold Mandatory Minicamp at TCO Performance Center in Eagan from Tuesday-Thursday. Then, they have one more voluntary OTA scheduled for the week after, June 16-18. From there, players will get a month or so off before they get ready to reconvene back in the south suburbs of the Twin Cities for Training Camp in mid-late July. Between now and then, general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and the Vikings front office will continue ongoing contract negotiations with coaches and players. Advertisement We've already touched on some of the coaches who are currently working on new deals, as reported by Darren Wolfson (KSTP) this week on SKOR North. Meanwhile, the most well-known and public player negotiation currently taking place is that of Josh Metellus, a deal Wolfson and others expect to get done eventually. Minnesota Vikings tight end looking forward to free agency next offseason…? Credit: Jeffrey Becker-Imagn Images The same cannot be said about tight end, Josh Oliver, however. The 28-year-old former 3rd round pick out of San Jose State is also due to hit the open market next offseason. Unlike Metellus, Oliver appears content with playing out the final year of his deal, before entering free agency next March. Don't get it confused. Just like everyone who works for the Vikings, the 6'5″ road grading tight end likes it in Minnesota and Darren believes he'll be open to a return. Advertisement Josh Oliver is confident in his abilities to earn more money on the open market, after one more successful season in purple. Should the Vikings rise up next offseason, as his best option for 2026 and beyond, Josh Oliver could still be back. Just no early discounts. 'If I had to bet, I'd like to think the two sides come to a happy medium eventually. That this is the next extension to get done. That it's not Josh Oliver. I think, at this point, Josh Oliver hits unrestricted free agency next March, which my understanding, is he would be okay with. He's moved around already. He sure likes it here, he is banking on himself having a good year this year, then being in a position to sign a third contract, maybe even back here. But not signing a contract extension like before training camp. I don't think that is happening unless things change. But right now, in the moment, no movement on the Josh Oliver front.' Darren Wolfson – Mackey & Judd Show (SKOR North) Losing Josh Oliver, who many consider to be the best blocking tight end in all of football, to free agency would be a big hit to what Kevin O'Connell wants to do offensively, especially since the Vikings are trying to be much more run-heavy, going forward with JJ McCarthy. How much would losing Josh Oliver hurt the MN Vikings? As a Viking, Josh Oliver has played 32 games, including 27 starts, racking up 44 receptions on 56 targets for 471 yards and 5 touchdowns, essentially doubling the numbers he had put up through the first four years of his NFL career, in Jacksonville and Baltimore. Season Age Team G GS Tgt Rec Yds 22 JAX 4 1 6 3 15 23 JAX — — — — — 24 BAL 14 1 15 9 66 25 BAL 17 9 25 14 149 26 MIN 17 14 28 22 213 27 MIN 15 12 28 22 258 Drafted in 2019 by the Jacksonville Jaguars, Oliver spent most of his first two NFL seasons on the injured list, including all of 2020. In March 2021, after playing just four total games (3 receptions, 15 yards) with the team that used a 3rd round pick on him, Josh Oliver was traded to the Baltimore Ravens. Advertisement Related: Justin Jefferson Reveals Why He Attended Minnesota Vikings OTAs Under John Harbaugh, Oliver became a crucial piece to the Ravens running game, but was utilized very little, outside of that role. He started only 10 games for Baltimore, in his two years there, catching 23 total passes for 215 yards and 2 touchdowns. The Paso Robles (CA) native then hit free agency in March 2023, where he quickly found a new job with the Minnesota Vikings, inking a three-year deal worth $21 million. What's followed has been the best seasons of his professional career. Multiple times since arriving in Eagan, head coach Kevin O'Connell has gushed over how much Josh Oliver means to what KOC's offense does on a weekly basis. But just one year from now, it sounds like one of the most underrated pieces of the Minnesota Vikings' high-powered attack could very well leave. Advertisement Next February/March, we'll find out how much the Minnesota Vikings really value Oliver, compared to other teams across the league, who may be able to offer him a more prominent role in the passing game, something he has proved he can handle when asked. Josh Metellus, Vikings struggling to find sweet spot in negotiations Metellus skipped the first few voluntary Vikings OTA sessions in May, before showing up and VERY lightly participating in their most recent workout, on June 2. It's pretty clear that the defensive leader's disinterest this spring is due to ongoing contract negotiations that stretch all the way back to this time last year. Related: Multiple Insiders Still See Kirk Cousins Landing Back in Minnesota Oddly enough, it sounds like the trip up in negotiations between Metellus and the Vikings is his position flexibility. Josh wants to be the highest paid safety in the league… but he plays more in the box than he does in the secondary. Should that work against him, though? 'On Josh Matelis I think there's been enough dialogue and [the Vikings] and [his agent] Drew Rosenhaus have worked out enough contracts: Christian Darrisaw, Aaron Jones, I mentioned Andrew Van Ginkel, go up and down the list…that I'd like to think eventually this gets done. But I'm telling you, I'm struggling to come up with what the numbers look like.' Darren Wolfson – Mackey & Judd Show (SKOR North) Advertisement Because linebackers and slot cornerbacks — where the former 6th round pick out of Michigan spends most of his time — are usually paid more than safeties. The problem with getting a Metellus deal done has nothing to do with lack of desire. He wants to be back in purple and, likewise, the Minnesota Vikings are motivated to bring him back.

Jaguars Mandatory Minicamp wrap-up: Hunter plays both ways in final minicamp practice
On Thursday, the Jacksonville Jaguars wrapped up their inaugural Mandatory Minicamp under Liam Coen and James Gladstone. A shorter practice than Wednesday's public defensive dominance, Thursday featured a rebound of the offense as multiple Anthony Campanile curse words floated throughout the Miller Electric practice fields. Here are our takeaways wrapping up 2025 Mandatory Minicamp. Full media availability: Observations from Mandatory Minicamp Day 3: BTJ back in action Today's practice kicked off markedly different from Wednesday's highly competitive affair, with a little more 7-on-7 and a larger focus on special teams in the early periods. However, an easy early takeaway from practice was the visual confirmation that receiver Brian Thomas Jr.'s Wednesday tumble was truly a minor thing, with him corralling multiple 15+ yard catches in the early 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 periods. Advertisement All eyes on Hunter In your non-Brian Thomas Jr news, the Jaguars have finally given fans and media what they have been clamoring for: Travis Hunter playing on both sides of the ball within the same practice. Not only did Hunter start the day off on offense before later lining up on defense, but they also did it in style, sending him inside to change out of the offensive teal and into white (instead of just throwing a penny jersey over his teal outfit). The team is leaning into the gravity/aura that is Travis Hunter, as I'm sure fans are here for it. Coach Coen, when asked after practice, discussed the decision to finally unveil Hunter in his dual-role capacity and advised this was a natural part of Hunter's progression: 'That's definitely what we have to build towards for training camp, and then obviously in season, knowing that during practice, he's going to have to do both. He wants to do it. It's not as if it's something he can't handle. He wants to go and do that more. He wants more, and that's a good thing. But ultimately, we also have to protect him from himself at times as well, and make sure we get out of this phase healthy, but that is absolutely the plan moving forward.' In today's practice, Hunter secured 3 catches in the teams period, with most of them being the catch-and-run variety. On defense, his receiver was only targeted once, with him playing zone on the short catch and making the immediate stop. Overall, it was a sharp day for the rookie WR/CB with no noticeable errors or opportunities. Throughout this offseason, much ado has been made about players' weights and the change in the teams' weight training processes. Per Coen, Hunter is towards the top of the team in his physical growth this offseason. 'I think he's physically grown. You looked at, we had the weight room goals and accomplishments that we had this spring, and he was up there with some of the guys who have put on the most muscle mass since getting here this spring. So, I think I've seen a little bit of physical growth, specifically in his upper half, and also just, it's a lot of volume, man. It's a lot of volume. This is not an offense specifically that you just go out, line up and play. There's a lot of shifts and motions and two play calls, sometimes three play calls. So, it is a lot, and then him having to obviously do defense as well. You see the type of guy that he is. He's in here early, he stays late, and wants to work. He loves the game. The growth will continue. I think we'll see a little bit more of a jump once we get into training camp as well.' Advertisement The last widely recognized 'Ironman' player in the NFL (someone who plays significant, starter-level snaps on both offense and defense) was Chuck Bednarik of the 1950s Philadelphia Eagles. If Hunter were to play real, substantive, rotational offensive and defensive snaps for the Jaguars, it would be truly historic — likely the first serious Ironman role in the NFL in over 60 years. The initial learning and growth phase of the offseason is complete. Short-term goals met. Enjoy your time on the lake (or river), Travis. Don't call it a comeback For the rest of the Jaguars' offense, Thursday was a much cleaner day with a more balanced showing from the offense after Wednesday's defensive shellacking. Coen stated similar after practice: 'I thought it was just less balls on the ground in general, less procedures, less flags thrown on the ground today from our lovely referees that came from the NFL. That was great. Once those refs come, NFL guys come, it's real. They're throwing the real flags. It was great having those guys in the building and hearing their reasons why, so that definitely helped clean it up a little bit. Specifically offensively, I felt like it was just a better overall day. We wanted to leave here with good momentum and confidence that these guys can go and have and take through the offseason program.' Advertisement However, with Rookie Minicamp, OTAs, and Minicamp in the books, Coen noted that the next goal for the team is resting up, but also making sure they are prepared in the coming weeks to hit the ground running for Training Camp (both physically and mentally): 'The work doesn't stop. Go enjoy family and get away from it a little bit, but we've got a lot of work to do this summer. We've got to come back in the best possible physical shape that we can be in coming into training camp, not use training camp to get in shape. That's got to be something that we're hitting the ground running and able to just go once we get in here. And they've got a lot of studying to do. They've got a lot of material to continue to cover, so that again, we're not starting back at square one when we come back in training camp. We will, in fact, go back to install one, but install one may be a little heavier than install one this spring. So, ultimately, they've got some work to do this summer, and that was the message.' Trevor Lawrence: Fashion sleeve or nah? After QB Trevor Lawrence's productive Thursday practice, he was asked about the use of his compression sleeve on his throwing shoulder over the past practices, which Coach Coen previously advised was precautionary due to general soreness. Lawrence provided his perspective on the fashion choice to the media: 'You have to think about I hadn't thrown before OTAs since December, so it was about four months of not throwing. I don't know the last time, I couldn't tell you the last time I didn't throw for four months. I guess four years ago, when I got surgery. I think just going from that to, I started throwing a couple of weeks before we started the offseason program, but then we jumped into practice and heavy volume. I think just over time, obviously, you have to adjust and get in shape for that, so just a little bit of soreness. The compression helps just relieve some of that, but that's all it is so nothing I'm concerned about.' Both Lawrence and Coen touched on Trevor's seemingly immediate chemistry with WR Dyami Brown this offseason, with Trevor raving about Brown's speed, ability to take the top off the defense, but also his football IQ: 'He's a really smart football player. He's picked up the system really quickly. He's always in the right spot. I think that's something about him, I don't know if you guys watched plenty of practices, he's gotten the ball a lot because it seems like he's always in the right spot. He always has a feel for the zone, like where to sit, where to throttle, kind of those voids. I just think he's really smart and I'm really excited about adding him to the offense, to the weapons that we already have.' Advertisement Coen, in his availability, also raved when discussing Dyami's skill set and his ability to be more than what folks have seen from him to date: 'I think when you watched him last year and you saw a little bit more of a ball in hand/deep threat. You didn't really see him work the intermediate that much, and I think over the course of this spring, Trevor and him have gained a little bit of a chemistry on some of those intermediate in- breakers, curls, maybe out-cuts, I just think that they have a little bit of chemistry in that that was part of the selling point to have him come here was, man, we really want to continue to diversify your route tree and have you do more. You're not just a screen, jet sweep, vertical threat. We want to continue to diversify his route tree, and I think that those two have built a little bit of chemistry out here.' Secondary competition updates CB Jarrian Jones continues to put together a solid offseason resume, with an extremely nice pass breakup on a deep in-breaking route from Dyami Brown. CB Deantre Prince, not to be outdone, followed that play up with a great play on the ball from Nick Mullens, nearly pulling in the interception on the sideline throw to WR Trenton Irwin. It wasn't only the cornerbacks to get in on the action, however. In addition to the solid secondary play by Jarrian and Deantre, rookie linebacker Jack Kiser also showed off his Senior Bowl defensive back coverage skills, securing a nice pass breakup in the teams period. Clutch Cam (Little) Cam 'The Cannon' Little went five-of-five on field goals on Thursday during the teams period, with a long of around 57 yards. Coen wrapped up his presser, discussing the sophomore kicker out of the University of Arkansas. 'He's a stud. You should see him hit a golf ball; it's the same that you see out here. He's explosive. The ball jumps off of his foot. He's got multiple different kicks in his repertoire in the kickoff game as well, which obviously we know with the new rule changes will be really imperative for us to be able to take advantage of some of those rules with the different types of kicks and styles of play. He's been great. Been really consistent, and he's really fun to be around.' Advertisement That's it from us until late July/early August's Training Camp dates are announced!

Cowboys' Micah Parsons Conducts 'Private Green Light' Meeting With Owner Jerry Jones
Cowboys' Micah Parsons Conducts 'Private Green Light' Meeting With Owner Jerry Jones originally appeared on Athlon Sports. FRISCO — Micah Parsons didn't do much, if anything, on the field for the Dallas Cowboys during Tuesday's mandatory minicamp opening here at The Star. Advertisement But he did do one thing for certain: He met with team owner Jerry Jones. As the Cowboys take on a new tone under first-year coach Brian Schottenheimer, the team had 100-percent attendance on this first day of minicamp. Among those present? Cowboys defensive star Micah Parsons. Originally, Micah hoped to have his extension signed and done months ago ... maybe to the tune of five years and $200 million. That hasn't happened, despite a series of one-on-one meetings between Parsons and either Jerry or Stephen Jones. But on Tuesday came yet another meeting ... and while the conversation between Micah and Jerry was private? Advertisement We did get to see it unfold from the sidelines at practice. Micah told us afterward that contract talks were not central to the visit. And he continues to maintain patience, it seems. 'I'm still hanging tight,'' he said. "I understand it's up to (him). He gives the green light on everything. So hopefully something is done by next month.' What's "next month''? On July 20, the Cowboys will make their yearly pilgrimage to Oxnard, California, for training camp. Parsons said he plans to be in attendance though his level of participation might depend on how negotiations progress. "Yeah, some people like to take their time more than others you can't rush the process,'' Parsona said. "(Jerry) wants the deal to go as cleanly as possible. I want the deal to go as cleanly as possible." Advertisement How will this thing get done? In the end, more "private'' meetings ... And then one final "green light'' from Jerry Jones.

Notes from latest Buffalo Bills OTA session: Josh Allen, James Cook among those absent
The Buffalo Bills are back on the practice field at One Bills Drive this week as the team continues working through Organized Team Activities (OTAs). Tuesday was the lone session this week with media in attendance, which revealed a bit more than is typical of these practices. Here's what we learned when the rubber turf pellets settled following the latest OTA session... James Cook again not at OTAs The least surprising news of the day was that running back James Cook continues his absent streak at OTAs. Bills Mafia is well aware of Cook's situation heading into the final season of his four-year rookie contract. Cook wants to be paid from the team that drafted him before he hits free agency, and like a top back in the league whose 2024 production warranted such a tag. The tougher conversations about Cook will begin if he's not in attendance once Mandatory Minicamp begins next week. Advertisement That said, offensive coordinator Joe Brady understands the situation and isn't letting it distract the team from its offseason goals. Cook wasn't the only players missing from OTAs on Tuesday, with Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic noting that defensive back Cam Lewis and quarterback Josh Allen were both absent. As is typical of such absences, no further information was available. We do know that Josh Allen just married Hailee Steinfeld, so him missing an OTA practice or two should come as no surprise. It would seem more likely any honeymoon for the power couple happens once Allen gets an extended break following Mandatory Minicamp — but his isn't the only massively busy and important schedule to manage in this scenario, as Hailee Steinfeld continues to see her star rise as a successful Hollywood actress, singer, and fashion icon. TLDR: There's zero cause for concern about Josh Allen's absence. Plenty of Bills players listed non-participants during Tuesday's OTA These sessions are somewhere in-between a typical practices and in-season walkthrus. That means players aren't allowed to engage in football contact, but they do run drills at speed to simulate how functions of a particular play are to be executed. Among those listed as non-participants on Tuesday were defensive end Joey Bosa, right tackle Spencer Brown, linebacker Baylon Spector, and safety Damar Hamlin. Advertisement Bosa continues working through a recent calf injury, and we shouldn't expect to see him on the field until training camp — perhaps a generous timeline by the team out of an abundance of caution for his health. The move with Bosa, like Von Miller before him, will be to limit his exposure to risk and also keep him on a snap count. The other names in Brown, Spector, and Hamlin are a bit surprising, with no updates to their health provided as of publishing. It's concerning to see Spector's name here given the amount of time he's already missed in his young career. Regarding Hamlin, his being sidelined could play heavily into the opportunity we've heard about regarding second-year safety Cole Bishop. Additionally, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN reported that nickel cornerback Taron Johnson was participating in a red jersey, and only in limited fashion. That's not great news but, again, it could simply be the team exercising due diligence in protecting Johnson at all costs in the offseason. Bills continue racking up injuries during Week 2 of OTAs While many are concerned about Bosa's health, it's again potentially a situation of the team being overly cautious during a point when they can afford to do it. We of course can't know if Bosa would practice or suit up were this training camp or the regular season, but we understand it's something the team doesn't feel the need to rush him through to avoid missing key work at the moment. Advertisement Yet Bosa is no longer the only concern. Alex Brasky reported that wide receiver Joshua Palmer left the field with what 'appeared to be a lower body injury.' After spending time with medical trainers in the field house, Palmer did return to the practice field with teammates. Hopefully it's a situation that doesn't linger for Palmer, who like so many other receivers on the team, undoubtedly benefits from every available snap right now, no matter who's throwing the football. Do the Bills have a brewing LB controversy brewing? Many will ask that very question, but I believe the answer is 'no.' Yes, linebacker Dorian Williams has 'shined' in sessions open to media, as noted by Alex Brasky, but it shouldn't come as any surprise. Nor should it surprise anyone if his continued development comes at the expense of snaps for veteran linebacker Matt Milano. Milano has endured a brutal stretch of injury and the hope is that he's in the clear now and able to stay on the field. But Father Time is undefeated, and Milano's losing ground on that front. It may seem unfair for a guy in Milano who's played his tail off since day one, but Williams could find himself back in a starter's role during 2025 regardless of '58's' health. Catching up with Bills players and coaches on the mic If you didn't get to listen in during Tuesday's media availability, below are the full press conferences for defensive coordinator Bobby Babich, offensive coordinator Joe Brady, special teams coordinator Chris Tabor, plus cornerbacks Tre'Davious White and Dane Jackson, as well as safety Taylor Rapp. Advertisement DC Bobby Babich Bills Mafia already knows Bobby Babich is an engaging, often fun interview. Babich is a genuine football guy, someone very excited to talk about the players under his direction — from both their on-field work and ability, to their intangibles and what they bring to the table has people away from football. Babich gave the press a generous 23 minutes of his time, and he covered a lot of ground. Make sure to set aside some time to hear all Babich had to say, from rookies to veteran players, during Tuesday's media session — embedded below. OC Joe Brady Joe Brady was his usual conversational self, fully in the moment with reporters and ready to respond to any question posed before him. Brady covered a ton of topics in the 18 minutes he spent with members of the media on Tuesday, so be sure to catch up with his entire press conference below. STC Chris Tabor Catch up with all new special teams coordinator Chris Tabor had to say, including what he learned during a season away from coaching in 2024, how he sees returns changing in 2025, the competition at punter and lots more. You can watch his full press conference via the embedded video below. CB Tre'Davious White Pleasantly, White really appears back to his old self. It's arguable that Tre' White never really left the Bills in 2024, if you listen to the excited way he talks about last season's team when asked if anyone's ability has surprised him since returning. 'Did you see our offense last year? [eyes fluttering] Did you see the MVP?' [huge smile]' Advertisement ...before continuing to note how impressive it is for Allen to have won MVP and the team get to within one game of the Super Bowl. White did draw attention to wide receiver Khalil Shakir's game, stating 'his after catch, the way he attacked the ball and just not dropping anything; hands of Velcro, man White had plenty more to offer, so be sure to check out his full presser below. CB Dane Jackson Dane Jackson chats with the media about returning to the Bills, his role with the team, and what he's observed about the defense and teammates since hitting the field at One Bills Drive.
