Darius Slay's Injury Isn't Serious
Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay (knee) left the team's Week 13 loss to the Packers with a knee injury, but he's not believed to have suffered a serious injury, according to a source.

Jets Fire Defensive Coordinator Gregg Williams
The New York Jets fired defensive coordinator Gregg Williams on Monday, according to sources. It comes a day after Williams called a zero blitz against the Raiders in a hail-mary situation with the game on the line in the final seconds of the fourth quarter.

The Seattle Mariners and outfielder Mitch Haniger avoided salary arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, non-guaranteed $3.01 million deal on Saturday, according to sources.

Jets Release Chris Hogan
The New York Jets released wide receiver Chris Hogan on Saturday. The wideout had 14 catches for 118 yards in five games before he landed on the Injured Reserve in October with a high-ankle sprain suffered in Week 5. It's never a good sign when you're released by an 0-11 team, but Hogan's injury surely […]

Packers Place Corey Linsley On Injured Reserve
Green Bay Packers center Corey Linsley (knee) was placed on Injured Reserve on Saturday, meaning he'll have to sit out the next three games.

Devonta Freeman Put On COVID-19 List
The New York Giants placed running back Devonta Freeman (ankle), who is already on Injured Reserve, on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Saturday.

New Orleans Saints rookie wide receiver Marquez Callaway (knee) suffered a minor knee sprain in the Week 12 win over the Broncos, but he'll be sidelined for at least the next three weeks after being placed on Injured Reserve on Saturday.

Terry McLaurin Questionable Against Steelers
Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin (ankle), defensive end Ryan Anderson (knee) and offensive tackle Morgan Moses (groin) are questionable for Week 13 against the Steelers on Monday. McLaurin got in a full practice on Saturday, so he should be good to go for this week. The second-year pass-catcher has WR1 upside almost every […]

Ben Roethlisberger, Chris Boswell Questionable
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (knee) and kicker Chris Boswell (hip) are both listed as questionable for Week 13 against Washington on Monday. Roethlisberger didn't practice all week, but the Steelers also list him with a non-injury, so it's likely that they just gave the 17-year veteran some extra rest after a Wednesday game in […]

The Houston Texans activated running back David Johnson (concussion) from Injured Reserve on Saturday. Johnson missed exactly three weeks with a head injury but should return in Week 13 to face the division-rival Colts.

Myles Gaskin Activated From Injured Reserve
The Miami Dolphins activated running back Myles Gaskin (knee) from Injured Reserve on Saturday. It's great timing for Gaskin, as running backs Salvon Ahmed and DeAndre Washington are doubtful to play on Sunday due to injuries and Matt Breida is officially out after being put on the COVID-19 list. So Gaskin and Patrick Laird should […]

D'Andre Swift Downgraded To Doubtful
Detroit Lions rookie running back D'Andre Swift (illness), who cleared the league's concussion protocol this week but fell sick, has been downgraded to doubtful for Week 13 against the Bears.

Mark Ingram II, Calais Campbell Activated From COVID-19 List
The Baltimore Ravens activated running back Mark Ingram II and defensive ends Calais Campbell and Jihad Ward from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Saturday.

The Philadelphia Eagles elevated running back Jordan Howard from the practice squad to the active roster on Saturday for the team's Week 13 game against the Packers.

Steelers Activate Stephon Tuitt From COVID-19 List
The Pittsburgh Steelers activated defensive end Stephon Tuitt from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Saturday. Tuitt has 31 tackles and seven sacks in 10 games and has also forced two fumbles and has two passes defensed.

Carlos Hyde, Carlos Dunlap Questionable
Seattle Seahawks running back Carlos Hyde (ankle) and defensive end Carlos Dunlap (foot) are listed as questionable for Week 13 against the Giants. Hyde got in a limited practice on Friday, so we'd anticipate him playing on Sunday. Dunlap missed practice all week, so he's definitely on the wrong side of questionable for a great […]

Larry Fitzgerald Remains On COVID-19 List
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald remains on the Reserve/COVID-19 list as of Friday, according to head coach Kliff Kingsbury. It means that the veteran receiver is likely to miss his second straight game in Week 13 against the Rams. DeAndre Hopkins is facing a showdown with All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey, giving Christian Kirk plenty […]

Jerry Jeudy Questionable Against Chiefs
Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Jerry Jeudy (ankle) practiced in full on Friday, but he's listed as questionable for Week 13 against the division-rival Chiefs on Sunday night. Unless Jeudy suffers a setback on Saturday, he should be good to go in the rematch against the Super Bowl champions. Don't just assume that the Alabama […]
