Bobby Slowik In No Danger Of Being Fired
Jan 20, 2025, 7:59 PM ET
The Houston Chronicle's Jonathan M. Alexander reports that Houston Texans offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik is not in danger of being fired after a tough second season in charge of the offense. Houston's offense looked better in two playoff games, but overall they regressed in 2024 as they finished 19th in scoring offense and averaged 21.9 points per game (19th) while ranking 22nd in average yards per game (319.7) and 21st in passing offense. Head coach DeMeco Ryans has been non-committal on the status of the entire coaching staff since losing to the Chiefs in the Divisional Round on Saturday, although quarterback C.J. Stroud has endorsed Slowik. Most of the Texans' struggles on offense came in pass protection, as they allowed Stroud to be sacked 52 times after he was sacked only 38 times in his rookie year in 2023. He was sacked a career-high-tying eight times in the loss to the Chiefs.--Keith HernandezSource: Houston Chronicle - Jonathan M. AlexanderComments · Join ChatOpen App

Brock Bowers Returns in Week 10

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers (ankle) has returned to Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks. The 25-year-old exited in the first half of the Week 10 matchup and was previously questionable to return. Bowers missed the first two weeks of the 2026 season as he recovered from a knee injury, but has since led the Raiders' receiving corps with 48 catches for 658 yards and six touchdowns. Las Vegas faces big challenges in Week 10 as Fernando Mendoza makes his first NFL start against a stingy Seahawks defense.--Chelena GoldmanSource: Gregg Bell via X.com
Jalen Coker a Massive Bust in Week 10 Win
Chelena Goldman
Nov 15, 2026, 4:45 PM ET
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker was a non-factor in a Week 10 win against the New Orleans Saints, failing to catch any of his four targets on the day. It's a season low for the 25-year-old, whose production and efficiency have declined over the 2026 campaign. Carolina's receiving corps as a whole failed to score a touchdown in Sunday's game, but Coker's lack of production was emblematic of his season-long struggles. The Panthers' receiving room is healthy right now, including tight ends Tommy Tremble and Darren Waller, and starting running back Chuba Hubbard has contributed to the passing game, which challenges Coker's target share going forward. Coker has fallen to WR21 in RotoBaller's position standings.--Chelena GoldmanSource: ESPN

Nov 15, 2026, 4:37 PM ET
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers (ankle) is questionable to return against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 10, ESPN's Ryan McFadden reported. Bowers was hurt on an Ashton Jeanty run with 11:31 left in the first quarter. He walked off under his own power, went to the medical tent, and returned by the 8:29 mark. He then went to the locker room after Fernando Mendoza's 10-yard touchdown run capped the Raiders' opening drive. Bowers had caught his only target, a six-yard pass from Mendoza, before leaving.--Bruno MuléSource: Sam Warren
Christian Watson Has Bust Performance in Lopsided Week 10 Loss
Chelena Goldman
Nov 15, 2026, 4:27 PM ET
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson had just three catches for 37 yards in a 30-10 home loss to the Minnesota Vikings. The 27-year-old entered Sunday's NFC North showdown posting over 100 receiving yards in back-to-back games, and a touchdown in Week 9 against the New England Patriots to tie him for the second-most receiving TD's in the NFL (7). Matthew Golden led Green Bay's receiving corps with five catches for 70 yards, and rookie J. Michael Sturdivant had the Packers' only receiving touchdown on the day. It was an all-around rough day for the Packers' offense, with Jordan Love getting sacked eight times. Watson will face another tough defense in Week 11 when the Packers visit the Rams, making his bust performance in Week 10 all the more disappointing.--Chelena GoldmanSource: ESPN

Rhamondre Stevenson Held to Five Scrimmage Yards in Week 10
Bruno Mulé
Nov 15, 2026, 4:22 PM ET
New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson managed 1.5 PPR points in Sunday's 35-10 loss to the Detroit Lions in Munich. He ran six times for four yards and caught his only target for one yard. His first carry went for four yards from Detroit's seven-yard line, and his other five netted zero. The Patriots settled for a field goal on that opening drive after losing Drake Maye to an ankle injury. Stevenson (knee) missed Wednesday's practice, was limited Thursday and Friday and played after being listed as questionable. Corey Kiner took three carries on the opening drive and had six by halftime to Stevenson's three. Kiner finished with 10 carries for 25 yards, and Stevenson played no fourth-quarter snaps. Seven of Kiner's eight carries against the Green Bay Packers in Week 9 came after Stevenson hurt his knee. Stevenson caught three passes for 46 yards and a touchdown before leaving that game. Kiner's first-half workload in Munich puts Stevenson in flex range for Week 12 at the Los Angeles Chargers.--Bruno MuléSource: RotoBaller

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (concussion) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs. The 25-year-old exited the Week 10 matchup in the fourth quarter after catching six of 12 targets for a game-leading 109 yards. Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr. isn't short on targets for the remainder of Sunday's game, with receiver Jahan Dotson and tight end Kyle Pitts Jr. still in the mix. Running backs Bijan Robinson and Khalil Herbert have also caught passes from Penix in Week 10.--Chelena GoldmanSource: Tori McElhaney
Amon-Ra St. Brown Ends Touchdown Drought With Two Scores in Munich

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown scored twice on third-and-long in Sunday's 35-10 win over the New England Patriots in Munich, ending a five-game receiving touchdown drought. Jared Goff went to him on consecutive plays to close Detroit's opening drive. St. Brown gained seven yards on second-and-16 before turning another short throw into a 56-yard touchdown on third-and-nine. His only target after halftime came on third-and-10, when he caught a short pass over the middle and got a push from teammates to finish a 28-yard score. St. Brown caught four of five targets for 98 yards after Detroit listed him as questionable Friday following three limited practices with a rib injury. Jahmyr Gibbs drew eight targets and Jameson Williams saw seven. St. Brown remains a WR1 when Detroit hosts the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 11. Sunday was his first game all season with fewer than eight targets. Against the Miami Dolphins in Week 9, he caught eight passes for 86 yards and drew twice as many targets as any teammate.--Bruno MuléSource: RotoBaller
Sam LaPorta Has Another Disappointing Fantasy Outing in Week 10
Chelena Goldman
Nov 15, 2026, 4:04 PM ET
Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta was expected to have a bounce-back performance in Week 10 against a 25th-ranked New England Patriots' passing defense. Instead, the 25-year-old caught just one pass on four targets for 16 yards in the 35-10 win in Munich. The Lions have been leaning more on Jahmyr Gibbs and the run game in recent weeks, which has impacted LaPorta's production since Detroit's Week 6 bye. Then again, Gibbs topped the receiving corps with seven catches for 99 yards, while Amon-Ra St. Brown hauled in two touchdowns. The Lions will face a decent Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense in Week 11, making LaPorta's bust performance in Week 10 sting a little more.--Chelena GoldmanSource: ESPN

New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's home game against the Buffalo Bills. Smith, 36, did not start the second half after taking a hard hit at the end of the second quarter. He briefly returned in the third after clearing concussion protocol, but limped back to the medical tent after one drive. The veteran completed 13 of 21 passes for 148 yards and no touchdowns before exiting Sunday's game. Rookie quarterback Cade Klubnik, who had only played in the season opener, took over for Smith to start the second half and remains in the game.--Chelena GoldmanSource: Mike Garafolo via X.com
Jahmyr Gibbs Has Two TDs in Big Win vs. Patriots
Chelena Goldman
Nov 15, 2026, 3:49 PM ET
Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs had 22 carries for 153 yards and two touchdowns in a 35-10 win against the New England Patriots in Week 10. He added seven catches on eight targets for 99 yards that helped propel Detroit to victory. That brings Gibbs to a league-leading 177 carries this season for the third-most rushing yards (847) and the second-most rushing touchdowns (9). New England entered the matchup with the 10th-ranked run defense in the NFL, but struggled all game to contain Gibbs and the Lions' offense. Gibbs lived up to his must-start status in Week 10 and will now prepare for a tall task facing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 11.--Chelena GoldmanSource: ESPN

Houston Texans wide receiver Xavier Hutchinson is being evaluated for a concussion after leaving Sunday's Week 10 game against the Cleveland Browns, according to Aaron Wilson. Hutchinson was injured on a deep pass intended for him that drew a defensive pass interference penalty with 10:53 left in the fourth quarter. He caught four of seven targets for 58 yards before leaving, including an 11-yard touchdown in the second quarter. It was his third straight game with a touchdown catch.--Bruno MuléSource: Aaron Wilson

Houston Texans running back Woody Marks (concussion) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's Week 10 game against the Cleveland Browns with a concussion, according to DJ Bien-Aime. Marks was injured on a three-yard run early in the third quarter and finished with 12 carries for 50 yards and one catch for 15 yards. With David Montgomery (groin) inactive, Emari Demercado and Dare Ogunbowale are Houston's remaining running backs against Cleveland.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Dont'e Thornton Jr. (back) is inactive for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Seattle Seahawks, according to Ryan McFadden. Thornton was added to the injury report Friday, did not practice that day and was listed as questionable. The Raiders activated him from injured reserve on Oct. 27, and he has yet to make his season debut. Tre Tucker caught four of eight targets for 55 yards against San Francisco last week, and Jalen Nailor led Raiders wide receivers with 37 offensive snaps. Both are available for Fernando Mendoza's first NFL start.--Bruno MuléSource: Ryan McFadden
