New York Jets head coach Adam Gase gave quarterback Sam Darnold a vote of confidence after one of the worst statistical games of his career in the Week 7 loss to the Bills.

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (ankle), who has been designated to return from Injured Reserve, is wearing a red jersey again on Tuesday, which means he won't take part in practice.

The Baltimore Ravens are signing wide receiver Dez Bryant to their practice squad on Tuesday, according to a source.

Bryant hasn't played […]

Broncos Defense Gets Embarrassed In Week 7 Loss

The Denver Broncos Defense had a daunting matchup in Week 7 against the Super Bowl champions, and they proved they weren't up to the task in the 43-16 blowout loss on Sunday. It came a week after the defense stepped up to slow down Cam Newton and the Patriots in an upset win. But the […]

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus made his lone field-goal try from 43 yards out in the 43-16 blowout loss to the Chiefs on Sunday in the snow.

Jerry Jeudy's Arrow Continues To Point Downward

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Jerry Jeudy had another disappointing day for his fantasy managers in the Week 7 blowout loss to the division-rival Chiefs in a game played in the snow in Denver.

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock attempted a season-high 40 throws in the 43-16 blowout loss to the Chiefs in Week 7, completing 24 of them for 254 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions.

Leonard Fournette Good To Go Against Raiders

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (ankle) is "good to go" for Week 7 against the Raiders, according to head coach Bruce Arians. Fournette sat out in Weeks 4 and 6 and played only one snap in Week 5. It complicates things in Tampa's backfield, but Fournette will likely provide a change of pace […]

Lane Johnson Suffers Grade 1 Knee Sprain

An MRI exam confirmed that Philadelphia Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson (knee) suffered a Grade 1 MCL sprain in the Thursday night win over the Giants, but he shouldn't have to miss much time, according to a source.

Cleveland Browns tight end Austin Hooper is having surgery on Friday for appendicitis and has been ruled out for Week 7 against the Bengals, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski.

Updating a previous report, Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (foot) has been ruled out for Week 7 against the Browns.

Joe Mixon Not Practicing Friday

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (foot) is not practicing on Friday. Although the Bengals are calling Mixon day-to-day, this will be his third straight missed practice of the week, which will make him extremely questionable to play in Week 7 against the Browns. The 24-year-old lead back has had at least 16 carries in […]

Zack Martin Ruled Out For Cowboys

Dallas Cowboys offensive guard Zack Martin (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 7 against the Washington Football Team.

It will hurt the Cowboys rushing attack and running back Ezekiel […]

Minnesota Vikings veteran safety and special teams contributor George Iloka (knee) suffered a torn ACL in practice on Wednesday and will undergo season-ending surgery, according to a league source.

Vikings Haven't Lost Faith In Kirk Cousins

Minnesota Vikings general manager Rick Spielman said that quarterback Kirk Cousins' shaky start to 2020 hasn't caused the franchise to lose faith in the signal-caller after they gave him a two-year, $66 million contract extension this spring. "You just kind of have to go back and look at the big picture," Spielman said. "But I […]

The Las Vegas Raiders had no more positive COVID-19 tests from their latest round of testing, a positive sign that their Week 7 game against the Buccaneers will be played as scheduled.
