1. Ranking all 31 NFL Stadiums

"No. 5 - Arrowhead Stadium
Five years ago, one of the NFL's oldest stadiums completed a $375 million facelift, preserving a building that first opened in 1972. The seating bowl, featuring some of the league's best sightlines, was left untouched. The same held true for the iconic arrowhead-shaped video boards in both end zones.

The Chiefs contacted Drake Thursday, worked him out Friday, signed him to a free-agent contract Saturday, and then had him on the practice field Sunday." READ MORE…
