The Daily's Verdict

This news site has a mixed reputation for journalistic standards. It is advisable to fact-check, scrutinize for bias, and check for conflicts of interest before relying on its reporting.

Bias

85%

Examples:

The author claims that the increase in media revenue for the 2024 season was an ‘extraordinary‗ factor contributing to the higher salary cap but it is actually stated by NFL officials that this year’s draft class will be smaller than usual due to Covid-19 restrictions and therefore not contribute significantly to increased revenue.

Conflicts of Interest

50%

Examples:

The author claims that Derrick Barnes’ interception was a full team effort when it was actually just him making the play.

Contradictions

85%

Examples:

Most estimates figured the number would be around $242-5 million, with only ProFootballTalk noting that it could be up to $250 million. This actual figure is higher than any estimates given this offseason, and it's more than $30 million more than last year’s $224.8 million cap.
The unprecedented $30 million increase per club in this year’s Salary Cap is the result of the full repayment of all amounts advanced by the clubs and deferred by the players during the Covid pandemic as well as an extraordinary increase in media revenue for the 2024 season.

Deceptions

45%

Examples:

The article claims there will be plenty of stars on the field for both teams when only one Pro Bowler from Tampa Bay Buccaneers and five Pro Bowlers and five All-Pros from Detroit Lions are mentioned. This is a lie by omission as it implies that all players on both teams are equally important.
The author quotes coach Dan Campbell saying that they can’t let Mike Evans go off but does not mention any other player on either team being overlooked by the general media.
