Ryan Fitzpatrick Makes Sense For Bills

Washington Commanders impending free-agent quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick makes a lot of sense to be Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen's backup in 2022. Mitchell Trubisky, who was Allen's backup last year, will move on in free agency and could land a big deal at the top of a weak free-agent class. Fitzpatrick was previously with the […]

Jarred Vanderbilt, Jordan McLaughlin Questionable For Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves power forward Jarred Vanderbilt (quad) and point guard Jordan McLaughlin (groin) have been deemed questionable to suit up for Friday's contest against Orlando.
