Ever wondered what really goes on on the football field when the cameras aren’t rolling? Hard Knocks: Offseason with the New York Giants gives fans a rare glimpse behind usually tightly locked front office doors.

Determined to bounce back from a disappointing 6-11 campaign, the Giants aim to revamp their roster through free agency and the draft.

With narration from Liev Schreiber, Hard Knocks pulls back the curtain on thrilling strategy sessions, negotiations, and tough decisions that shape the future of America’s oldest football franchise.

HBO’s Hard Knocks: Training Camp With the Chicago Bears has been mute on the curse words, and there’s a reason for that.

In a new interview, producer Shannon Furman explained why the NFL team hasn’t used profanity on the show, which is three episodes into the season.

“I’ll be honest, this team curses much less than any other team I’ve been around, but it is out of respect for the McCaskey family,” Furman said on the Chgo Bears podcast, referring to the team’s owners.

Furman added, “It’s something that they don’t do and wouldn’t want to see it. So it’s just kind of been a decision that was made out of respect for them, letting us in their house and wanting to be respectful to them.”

No cursing on Hard Knocks.

No major American professional sport has a longer offseason than the NFL, but the league never fails to find ways to turn professional football into a year-round entertainment product. As fans wait out the final summer months before their favorite teams suit up on the gridirons again, they can always count on new prestige documentaries to tide them over until kickoff.

For years, the summer football documentary niche was monopolized by HBO, whose annual training camp documentary “Hard Knocks” has long been beloved by sports media consumers. But Netflix got into the game in 2023 with “Quarterback,” an eight-part documentary that followed quarterbacks Patrick Mahomes, Kirk Cousins, and Marcus Mariota over the course of a season playing the sport’s most important position.

The streaming giant repeats the formula with the upcoming “Receiver,” which puts five of the NFL’s top wide receivers in the spotlight. Amon-Ra St. Brown of the Detroit Lions,...

The Chicago Bears will make their first appearance on HBO’s Hard Knocks throughout training camp, the team announced Thursday.

The Bears have never been featured on Hard Knocks, which has followed NFL teams during training camp since 2001. One reason is Chairman George McCaskey, who long opposed allowing HBO access.

But having No. 1 draft choice and USC man Caleb Williams at quarterback makes for a compelling storyline.

“We are honored to feature such an iconic NFL franchise on ‘Hard Knocks,'” NFL Films senior director and supervising producer Shannon Furman said. “The Chicago Bears have a talented roster, coaching staff and front office all determined to match the expectations of a hungry fan base. We are thankful to the entire organization for openin

The Bears will be the first team to report to training camp in late July. They play the Houston Texans in the Hall of Fame game in Canton,...

Mindy Kaling got right to the point at the top of the Warner Bros Discovery presentation Wednesday by joking how her show The Sex Lives of College Girls is “filled with smoking hot guys who run around campus topless.”

“It’s a Max show, not a BBC show,” she said.

HBO is expanding its NFL franchise Hard Knocks with a new series on the New York Giants.

The network is launching Hard Knocks: Offseason with the New York Giants, which will document the offseason for the first time.

The five-part series will launch on July 2.

It was announced by Casey Bloys, Chairman and CEO, HBO and Max Content, during the Warner Bros. Discovery Upfront presentation.

The series will follow the Daniel Jones-led New York Giants organization as the team prepares for their highly anticipated 100th season. Camera crews will chronicle the team’s every move as general manager Joe Schoen and other members of the team’s front office and staff navigate the critical offseason period from January to July 2024, from the NFL Scouting Combine to free agency, to the NFL Draft, and team minicamps.

The series is produced by NFL Films and Skydance Sports with Liev Schreiber narrating.

Jason Kelce, who retired earlier this year after 13 years with the NFL’s Philadelphia Eagles, told the crowd at Disney’s upfront how pumped he is to be joining “Monday Night Freakin’ Football!”

While he kept his shirt on, Kelce summoned the emotional intensity of his retirement announcement. When Abbot Elementary’s Quinta Brunson introduced him, Kelce hoisted her up off her feet, prompting the TV creator to joke that she felt like she’d just been on the Guardians of the Galaxy ride.

Kelce’s retirement was magnified by him becoming a player in the widely obsessed about romance between his brother, Travis, a member of the Super Bowl-winning Kansas City Chiefs, and pop superstar Taylor Swift. As the Chiefs marched through the playoffs, the Eagles wound up at home, giving Jason Kelce the chance to...

Quarterback Jared Goff was selected by the Los Angeles Rams with the first pick in the 2016 NFL Draft. After spending five seasons with the team and reaching the Super Bowl Liii, Goff was unexpectedly traded to the Detroit Lions.

The move sent Goff to a franchise that wasn’t a championship contender but a team that had been being down and out year after year. However, that changed in the 2023 season when the signal-caller led the Lions to playoffs and the team’s first-ever NFC North title.

Now fans want to know all about the athlete who lifted the spirits of an entire fan base and city. Here’s more on Goff and his fiancée Christen Harper.
