Dolphins Waive Robbie Chosen

The Miami Dolphins waived wide receiver Robbie Chosen on Thursday. Apparently he wasn't the chosen one in Miami this year.

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey (calf) is officially inactive for Thursday night's divisional clash against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Blue Jays Could Be A Sleeper For Shohei Ohtani

At least one rival executive views the Toronto Blue Jays as a sleeper for free-agent two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani this offseason. Any plans the Blue Jays had to sign Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette to massive extensions might be on hold now. George Springer's six-year, $150 million contract expires after 2026, and the team... Read More

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (forearm), who is recovering from a broken forearm suffered in Week 9, did not take part in practice on Thursday.

Keenan Allen Back At Practice Thursday

After missing the first official practice of the week on Wednesday, Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (shoulder) returned to the practice field on Thursday.

Dameon Pierce Trending Towards Missing Another Game

Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce (ankle) remains sidelined at practice again on Thursday. Pierce has yet to practice this week and is trending towards missing his third straight game.

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said he would like to get running back Rico Dowdle more touches, but he also doesn't have a problem with the current ball distribution in the backfield between Dowdle and Tony Pollard.
