Marquise Brown Up In The Air For Week 16

Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said that wide receiver Marquise Brown's (heel) status for the Week 16 game against the Chicago Bears remains to be determined. However, potential bad weather in Chicago on Sunday won't play a factor in whether Brown suits up this weekend. The Cardinals are not in the playoff picture whatsoever, […]

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Zay Jones (hamstring) is considered week-to-week heading into the Week 16 contest versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this Sunday.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence (concussion) remains in the league's concussion protocol, but head coach Doug Pederson said he is "progressing well" after suffering a concussion late in Sunday night's loss to the Baltimore Ravens.

Zach Wilson Still In Concussion Protocol

New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson (concussion) remains in the league's concussion protocol on Wednesday. The Athletic's Zack Rosenblatt writes that it seems unlikely that Wilson will play this weekend against the Washington Commanders on Christmas Eve, especially since the Jets were officially eliminated from the playoffs with last Sunday's blowout loss to the Miami […]

Royals Avoid Arbitration With Kris Bubic

The Kansas City Royals avoided salary arbitration with left-hander Kris Bubic on Tuesday by agreeing to a one-year, $2.35 million deal with him.

Jaguars Sign E.J. Perry To Practice Squad

With Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence in the league's concussion protocol this week, the team signed free-agent quarterback E.J. Perry to their practice squad on Tuesday, according to his agent. The Jaguars have only C.J.

The team also added defensive end Zach McCloud and wide receivers Jaydon Mickens and Juwann Winfree to their practice squad while letting offensive guard Lewis Kidd go from the practice squad.

Lions Waive Riley Patterson, Activate Hendon Hooker

The Detroit Lions waived kicker Riley Patterson on Tuesday and activated rookie quarterback Hendon Hooker (knee) from the Non-Football Injury list in a corresponding move.

Buffalo Bills rookie tight end Dalton Kincaid (shoulder) and running back Ty Johnson (shoulder) were both limited in the team's walkthrough practice on Tuesday.

Chase Brown Dealing With Chest Injury

Cincinnati Bengals rookie running back Chase Brown (sternum) is on the Week 16 injury report after being listed as limited in the team's first practice of the week on Tuesday. It's an injury that shouldn't keep Brown from playing in Week 16 against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers, but it's something worth watching. The 23-year-old fifth-round […]

Pat Freiermuth Limited On Wednesday

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth (knee) was listed as a limited practice participant at Tuesday's practice session.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett (ankle) put in a limited practice on Tuesday and went through drills as the fourth QB, following Mason Rudolph, Mitch Trubisky and Trace McSorley.

Free-agent wide receiver Jarvis Landry worked out for the Indianapolis Colts on Tuesday. The five-time Pro Bowler has not played with anyone in 2023 after two straight down seasons in 2021 and 2022 with the Cleveland Browns and New Orleans Saints, respectively, that were marred by injuries. The 31-year-old slot receiver caught just 25 passes […]

Najee Harris Picks Up DNP To Start The Week

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris (knee) was listed as a non-participant in the team's first practice of the week on Tuesday.

Kendre Miller Shows Signs Of Activity

New Orleans Saints rookie running back Kendre Miller (ankle) practiced on a limited basis on Tuesday for the first time since spraining his ankle in Week 9. Keep in mind, it was an estimated status at the team's walkthrough practice, but it nevertheless is progress for the 21-year-old third-rounder after it was looking like he […]

Chris Olave Back At Practice Tuesday

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant on Tuesday, which is notable because he missed all of practice last week and didn't play in the Week 15 win over the New York Giants. He was also listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report. With Olave […]
