Travis Jankowski Making Another Start In Game 5

Jalen Reagor Expected To Become A Starter

There is more opportunity in the New England Patriots pass-catching group now that receiver Kendrick Bourne (knee) is done for the year with a torn ACL. Wideouts Jalen Reagor, rookie Demario Douglas and JuJu Smith-Schuster are now the top three pass-catchers on the depth chart, with second-year receiver Tyquan Thornton and rookie Kayshon Boutte next […]

Carolina Panthers wide receivers DJ Chark Jr. (elbow) and Laviska Shenault Jr. (ankle) both missed the first official practice of the week on Wednesday.

[…]

Tyrod Taylor Won't Practice Wednesday

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said that quarterback Tyrod Taylor (ribs) will not practice on Wednesday.

Daniel Jones Practicing Without Limitations

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said that quarterback Daniel Jones (neck) is practicing on Wednesday without any limitations and is good to go heading into a Week 9 game against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Darren Waller Won't Practice Wednesday

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said tight end Darren Waller (hamstring) will not practice on Wednesday.

Atlanta Falcons head coach Arthur Smith announced on Wednesday that quarterback Taylor Heinicke will make the start over Desmond Ridder in Week 9 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Aidan O'Connell Expected To Start, Jimmy Garoppolo To The Bench

The Las Vegas Raiders are expected to start rookie quarterback Aidan O'Connell in Week 9 against the New York Giants and going forward, with Jimmy Garoppolo heading to the bench.

The Texas Rangers announced on Tuesday that outfielder Adolis Garcia (oblique) was removed from the World Series roster after suffering a moderate left-oblique strain in Game 3 on Monday night.
