What we are
Pigskin Nightly is an independent, data-first pro football site covering all 32 teams under one roof. Every game has a live field, a win-probability river, a drive chart and the full box score; every club has its own section and its own desk. Scores, box scores, injuries, depth charts and rosters come from public ESPN feeds; play-by-play models come from the open-source nflverse project; everything else on this page we compute ourselves from those plays (where the numbers come from). Desks write strictly from that data under our editorial standards, and corrections are made in the open (corrections policy).

Masthead
Pigskin Nightly signs by desk, never by an invented individual byline: each of the 32 clubs has its own desk with its own beat, listed in the newsroom. The publisher answers for every page.
