Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins completed 24-of-36 passes for 343 yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions in the Vikings 40-23 loss to the Falcons.

Teddy Bridgewater Struggles In Loss To Bears

Carolina Panthers quarterback Teddy Bridgewater completed 16 of 29 passes for 216 yards and two interceptions in a 23-16 loss to the Bears.

Dak Prescott Has No Infections Post-Surgery

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (leg) has not had any infections after his surgery. This sets Prescott up to start the four to six month recovery window from the injury.

Andrew Thomas Didn't Start For Giants

The New York Giants made a change with their offensive line, moving rookie left tackle Andrew Thomas to the bench and starting third-round rookie Matt Peart in his place. Not a great sign for Thomas, the No. 4 overall pick in this year's draft who has struggled so far. Maybe if this is a permanent […]

Drew Lock Officially Active For Week 6

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock (shoulder) is officially active for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots, while Jeff Driskel won't be active. This seems to suggest Lock is a full go as the starter, though a tough matchup against the Patriots means that Lock's just a low-end QB2 play. He'll be especially hurt by […]
