Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said that offensive tackle Jedrick Wills (ankle) is day-to-day with an ankle injury that he suffered in the Week 1 season-opening loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. X-rays on Wills' ankle came back negative, so there's a chance that he might not have to miss any game action. It […]

New Orleans Saints pass-rusher Marcus Davenport (pectoral) suffered a pectoral strain in the Week 1 blowout win over the Green Bay Packers and will miss some time, according to a source.

Broncos Defense Lives Up To The Hype In Week 1

The Denver Broncos defense looked like their strong suit in the 27-13 Week 1 victory over the New York Giants on Sunday. With the Monday night game pending, Denver's D finished tied for seventh among team defenses to open the season in standard-scoring defensive leagues, and it was without star pass-rusher Bradley Chubb in the […]

Courtland Sutton Does Very Little In Week 1 Win

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton was barely heard from on Sunday in the 27-13 win over the New York Giants in Week 1. Playing in his first regular season game since tearing his ACL in Week 2 of last year, Sutton was handled with kid gloves by the Denver coaching staff, which was a […]

Albert Okwuegbunam Vultures A Touchdown Against Giants

KJ Hamler Leaves Lots Of Points On The Field

Denver Broncos wide receiver KJ Hamler finished the 27-13 Week 1 win over the New York Giants with three catches on four targets for 41 yards.

Noah Fant Begins The Season Strong

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant got off to a strong start in 2021 in the 27-13 Week 1 season-opening win over the New York Giants on Sunday. Fant had a team-high eight targets and caught six of them (tied for the team lead) for 62 scoreless yards. The 23-year-old wasn't really a factor in […]

Breshad Perriman A Healthy Scratch In Week 1

Chicago Bears wide receiver Breshad Perriman will be a healthy inactive for the Sunday night game against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 1.

Jason Verrett Feared To Have Torn ACL

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters that he thinks cornerback Jason Verrett (knee) suffered a torn ACL in the Week 1 win over the Detroit Lions.

Marshon Lattimore Is Active For Season Opener

New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore (knee) is active for the Week 1 season opener against the Green Bay Packers.

Jermar Jefferson Won't Play In Season Opener

Detroit Lions rookie running back Jermar Jefferson is a healthy scratch for the Week 1 season opener on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers.

The fact that Jefferson doesn't contribute on special teams could make […]

Alex Collins A Healthy Inactive To Begin The Year

Seattle Seahawks running back Alex Collins will be a healthy inactive for the Week 1 season opener against the Indianapolis Colts.
