Had Christian Kirk not gone down with a broken collarbone, the Jaguars wide receiver may well have become the Steelers’ long-sought-after wide receiver solution.

The Broncos are 5-4 but did make a seller’s trade, unloading Baron Browning (to the Cardinals) for a sixth-round pick.

The Cleveland Browns are 2-7, which has led some to question whether coach Kevin Stefanski will survive such a poor season.

Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry acquiring Deshaun Watson from the Houston Texans in March 2022 and handing him a fully guaranteed five-year, $230M contract will likely go down as an all-time NFL blunder.  With Watson recovering from the ruptured Achilles tendon he suffered on Oct. 20, Berry was asked during
