Packers coach Matt LaFleur is usually mild mannered. Late in the first half of Sunday’s game against the Vikings, he definitely wasn’t. LaFleur blew a gasket after the officials ruled that a pass to receiver Romeo Doubs did not result in a touchdown. Because the play happened within the final

Broncos running back Tyler Badie avoided a serious outcome on Sunday, after he suffered a back injury against the Jets. And while his prognosis is positive, he’ll be missing some time.

On one hand, I’m not sold Adams is the “missing piece” in this situation. There are deeper issues on the New York Jets. But, hey, he’d probably get like 16 targets per week! While that’s an exaggeration, of course, I’m confident it wouldn’t take Aaron Rodgers and Adams long to

Steelers defensive lineman Larry Ogunjobi’s availability for Sunday night is no longer in doubt. Ogunjobi was originally listed as questionable to play because of a groin injury, but the team announced a positive change in his status on Saturday morning. Ogunjobi has been upgraded and is now expected to play

Let the rumor mill tell it, Adam Cole is on his way back to AEW quite soon. So says a report from Fightful Select (h/t Randall Ortman of Cageside Seats) that says Cole should be back “sooner than later,” hence creative firing up ideas for his return. That would seem
