Aaron Jones Starts Week With Limited Practice

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (hamstring) put in a limited practice on Thursday.

The 28-year-old was a big disappointment […]

Javonte Williams Returns To Limited Practice

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams (quadriceps) was limited in Thursday's practice after sitting out on Wednesday.

Deebo Samuel Practicing Again Thursday

San Francisco 49ers wide receivers Deebo Samuel (knee, ribs) and Jauan Jennings (shin) were both on the practice field on Thursday after they put in limited practices on Wednesday.

Los Angeles Rams offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur said that wide receiver Cooper Kupp (hamstring) "looks healthy."

And from my vantage point, it looks […]

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (abdomen) hasn't practiced yet this week due to an abdominal injury, but he's still hoping to play in Week 5 against the Carolina Panthers.

Wan'Dale Robinson Limited Again Thursday

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said that wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) would be limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday.

Daniel Jones Wants To Get Darren Waller More Involved

In training camp, it was clear that New York Giants tight end Darren Waller would be quarterback Daniel Jones' favorite target this year. However, Waller and the team's offense has struggled through four weeks, and Waller hasn't reached 30 receiving yards in either of the last two games. Waller has still been Jones' top target, […]

Miles Sanders With Another Limited Practice

Carolina Panthers running back Miles Sanders (groin) put in yet another limited practice on Thursday.

Corey Seager Has Been Clutch In Postseason

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager has plenty of playoff experience and always seems to come up clutch at the plate. He went 4-for-8 with three doubles and two RBI in the two-game sweep of the Tampa Bay Rays in the wild-card series. In 2020 with the Los Angeles Dodgers when they won the World Series, […]

Braves Offense Gets Going Early

The Atlanta Braves offense was really good in the 2023 regular season. Part of the reason why they were so good this year is because they scored 146 first-inning runs, which is the second-most in MLB history since 1961, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. Atlanta scored a first-inning run 65 times this year, accounting […]
