49ers linebacker Fred Warner and tight end George Kittle remained out of practice Thursday. That does not bode well for their availability for Sunday’s game against the Cardinals.

The Falcons scored their first offensive touchdown in their past 17 drives, taking the opening kickoff and marching 70 yards on seven plays. Kirk Cousins was 3-for-4 for 65 yards and a touchdown. He got all his weapons involved. Running back Bijan Robinson ran three times for 5 yards, and

Receiver Mike Evans scored his 98th career touchdown on the Buccaneers’ first drive Thursday night. Perhaps none has been easier. The Falcons appeared confused defensively, with cornerback A.J. Terrell losing him. Baker Mayfield found Evans wide open for a 2-yard score to tie the Falcons 7-7. It was Evans’ 12th

Packers quarterback Jordan Love injured his MCL in the season opener and missed two games before returning Sunday. He completed 12 of 24 passes for 118 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions in the first half, and the Packers trailed the Vikings 28-7. Love was much better in the

Earlier this year, a deal between the NFL and ESPN regarding the league’s NFL media conglomerate seemed to be inevitable. Then, it didn’t happen.

The NFL’s version of Halley’s Comet comes around every 21 years. It’s due to make another appearance in April 2025.

The Cowboys signed CeeDee Lamb to a four-year, $136 million deal as their No. 1 receiver in August. They have no interest in paying another star receiver $983,333 in salary each week plus $30,000 for each game in he’s on the active roster for half a season, which, under his

After Chiefs receiver Rashee Rice suffered a knee injury during last Sunday’s win over the Chargers, it became clear through replay that quarterback Patrick Mahomes hit the wideout when trying to make a tackle after throwing an interception on the play. In his Thursday press conference, Mahomes told reporters that

Dolphins wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. began practicing with the team this week and the early reviews of his work are positive. Wide receivers coach Wes Welker said that Beckham “has looked great” since returning to the field for the first time since an offseason knee procedure and said he

The odds of wide receiver Malik Nabers being in the Giants lineup this weekend are getting longer. Nabers suffered a concussion in last Thursday’s loss to the Cowboys and he did not take part in Wednesday’s practice. Head coach Brian Daboll told reporters on Thursday that Nabers has made progress,

The Pro Football Hall of Fame revealed the list of 60 candidates for election in the Seniors category. Each member of the Seniors Screening Committee voted for 50 candidates from a list of 182 nominees for election to the class of 2025. All individuals under consideration had to appear in

One of the strangest aspects of a potential Jets trade for receiver Davante Adams comes from the collection of receivers the Jets already have. The top three players at the position are Garrett Wilson, Allen Lazard, and Mike Williams. So if Adams is in, who’s out? Allen Lazard won’t be;

The NFL has named Steelers kicker Chris Boswell the AFC special teams player of the month for September. It’s Boswell’s second player of the month award after he also won it back in 2015. Boswell hit 11-of-12 field goals in September, with a long of 57 yards. He had five

Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson has been available for eight games so far over his first two seasons, but has had to exit four of them due to injury — including Indianapolis’ victory over Pittsburgh last week. Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, Richardson was asked his response to the notion that

The Ravens have used a strong ground attack to win their last two games. But one of the consequences of that has also been a lack of targets for one of Baltimore’s key offensive weapons. Tight end Mark Andrews has not had a reception since Week 2, receiving only one

Reactions to the Chiefs’ 4-0 start have generally fallen into one of two camps. One one side are those who think the team’s lackluster offensive play will catch up with them, especially when you factor in the players that they have lost to injury already this season. The other camp

In a league that likes to eliminate distractions, the Raiders have a significant one on their hands this week with receiver Davante Adams’ trade request. Las Vegas still has a game this week, as the club will be on the road to face Denver. Quarterback Garner Minshew said in his

It wasn’t long after quarterback Aaron Rodgers joined the Jets in 2023 that chatter about Davante Adams joining him on the AFC East club began to pop up and it hasn’t gone away. This week, it has gotten even louder. Adams has requested a trade away from the Raiders and

Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire has started on the path back to the team’s active roster. The NFL’s daily transaction report for Wednesday shows that the Chiefs have opened the window for Edwards-Helaire to practice with the team. Edwards-Helaire is on the non-football illness list and will be able to

The Broncos were able to beat the Jets last Sunday despite quarterback Bo Nix going 12-of-25 for 60 yards, but all involved know that’s not a sustainable way to win games in the NFL. Nix’s performance was impacted by ugly weather in New Jersey for much of the game. Head

The dismal recent history of the Commanders led to a lot of talk about quarterback Jayden Daniels being something of a franchise savior when he was selected with the second overall pick this year, but Daniels deflected such talk by saying that he’s just a rookie. Daniels has done nothing

The makeup of the 2025 class is different than what anyone has seen in recent years, and the Bleacher Report Scouting Department’s initial draft board… This content was brought to you by: Bleacher Report – Front Page

Yes, it’s not easy to tiptoe around a delicate genius. Three days after Jets coach Robert Saleh attributed five false starts to issues with the unique cadence employed by quarterback Aaron Rodgers, and two days after Saleh tried to shift the focus from “cadence” to “operation,” Saleh dismissed any effort

Every team in the NFL has gained 300 yards of offense in a game at least once this season. Except the team that paid its quarterback the largest guaranteed contract in NFL history. The Browns are the only team in the league without a 300-yard game, having topped out at

Dynamite.AEW Dynamite opened with PAC, Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli and Marina Shafir giving a promo directed at Wheeler Yuta and Danielson. Ricochet was up first for his international title bout against Ospreay. They waited a moment before locking up and struggling for control. The crowd chanted “This is awesome” as

Running back Brian Robinson has been a key piece of a productive offense in Washington, so his appearance on Wednesday’s injury report is reason for some concern. The Commanders listed Robinson as out of practice with a knee injury. Robinson ran 21 times for 101 yards and a touchdown in

After saying he wouldn’t practice, Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson practiced. He was limited Wednesday with an oblique injury, with backup Joe Flacco taking the team reps.

49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall became eligible to return to practice on Wednesday, but the 49ers opted not to designate him for return at this point. Pearsall was shot in the chest during an attempted robbery shortly before the first game of the regular season. Pearsall avoided the most severe

As the fifth Sunday of the regular season approaches, the team that currently employs receiver Stefon Diggs will host the team that most recently employed him. In anticipation of Sunday’s Bills-Texans game, ESPN.com posted a #longread that, frankly, shed no new light on the Bills’ relationship with Diggs, or why

With Raiders receiver Davante Adams due to make $983,333 in salary each week plus $30,000 for each game in which he’s on the active roster, his remaining compensation could create a cap issue for a team that trades for him. Moreover, the new team might believe the balance due is

On Tuesday, the NFL announced that Bills linebacker Von Miller has been suspended four games for violating the Personal Conduct Policy. On Wednesday, coach Sean McDermott addressed the situation with reporters. “It’s certainly an unfortunate situation and we respect the decision made by the league, and really it’s out of

Packers quarterback Jordan Love returned from an MCL sprain, only 23 days after it happened. He arguably shouldn’t have. Love didn’t seem to be 100 percent against the Vikings. Given that Malik Willis had won two games in Love’s absence, maybe someone should have persuaded Love to wait another week.

With Stefon Diggs gone, receiver Khalil Shakir is the closest thing the Bills have to a No. 1 receiver. He might not be playing on Sunday. Shakir suffered an ankle injury on Sunday night against the Ravens. On Wednesday, he didn’t practice. Also missing practice on Wednesday were tackle Dion

Trade me once, shame on you. Trade me twice, shame on me. That’s the mindset that apparently has prompted Dolphins receiver Tyreek Hill to say all the right things, most of the time, about his situation. He knows if he’s traded a second time, he’ll be regarded as the problem.

Davante Adams wants a trade, and the Raiders would “consider” moving the receiver for the a package that includes a second-round pick. For now, he remains with the Raiders . . . and he remains out of practice. Adams initially was listed with a hamstring injury Thursday when he was

Broncos running back Tyler Badie did not practice Wednesday as expected. Coach Sean Payton said Badie is “doing better” but still being evaluated and “possibly” a candidate for injured reserve. Badie injured his back in Sunday’s win over the Jets. He was taken off the field on a cart while
