Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said the team isn't considering benching quarterback Baker Mayfield when the team returns from their Week 13 bye. "We're not doing that," Stefanski said.

Brandon McManus Doesn't Attempt A Field Goal Sunday

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus wasn't really needed much in the team's Week 12 win over the Los Angeles Chargers by a score of 28-13 on Sunday.

Jerry Jeudy Posts Disappointing Line In Win Over Chargers

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy and the entire Broncos receiving corps did very little in the 28-13 win over the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 12.

[…]

Rashard Higgins A Healthy Scratch Sunday Night

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Rashard Higgins is a healthy scratch for Sunday Night Football against the Baltimore Ravens with Donovan Peoples-Jones (groin) officially active, tut it's a bit surprising with rookie Anthony Schwartz (concussion) out in Week 12. Higgins has been useless from a fantasy perspective this year, as he's mostly served as the team's […]

Denver Broncos quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (shin) missed the entire second quarter of the 28-13 Week 12 win over the Los Angeles Chargers after a hard hit from safety Derwin James.
