Charles Clay's Reliability Should Continue

Buffalo Bills tight end Charles Clay is still leaning towards being the same reliable, consistent player we've always been accustomed to despite the latest situation that surrounds the quarterback position.

Adrian Peterson Agrees To Join Redskins

The Washington Redskins signed free-agent running back Adrian Peterson (Cardinals) on Monday, adding a much-needed boost to their beleaguered backfield after losing rookie Derrius Guice (knee) to a season-ending injury in early August.

Josh Allen's Time Appears to be Now

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is on the cusp of taking center stage with the recent injury to fellow teammate and now injured player AJ McCarron.

Detrez Newsome Leads The Way Against Seattle

Los Angeles Chargers running back Detrez Newsome knew he'd be the man coming into the game against Seattle, and he took advantage of the opportunity.

Geno Smith Widens The Gap For Backup Job

Jon Ryan Leaving Seattle

Seattle Seahawks punter Jon Ryan is officially calling it quits with the Seahawks following the team's second preseason game.

Rasheem Green Looks Like He'll Be A Star

Seattle Seahawks rookie defensive lineman Rasheem Green racked up another 1.5 sacks against the Chargers, giving him three in two games. The third-round pick has shown impressive skill up front, and he once again showed that he can be effective against both the run and the pass. Green is being molded to take Michael Bennett's […]

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver David Moore is one of a handful of guys battling to snag one of Seattle's final two receiver spots, and he laid down quite an audition on Saturday night.

Chris Carson Looks Good Besides Fumbles

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson ran well during Seattle's second preseason game, but the only thing that's really going to be remembered were the fumbles.

Minnesota Vikings rookie kicker Daniel Carlson has secured his spot as the team's kicker heading into the 2018 season following the release of seven-year veteran Kai Forbath.

Markus Wheaton Dealing With a Hamstring Strain

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Markus Wheaton sat out practice again on Sunday due to a hamstring strain. Wheaton hasn't practiced in two weeks.

Xavier Woods Could Miss Week 1

Dallas Cowboys defensive back Xavier Woods could miss Week 1 due to a hamstring injury. He suffered a strain during Saturday's preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals. One of the bright spots in an otherwise dull defense last season, Woods would be a noticeable absence in the Dallas secondary.
