Former NFL star Shannon Sharpe is calling out the league’s handling of Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts’ blood‑clot issue, saying the NFL applies double standards in its investigations. After a superficial calf clot was found before the Eagles’ London game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, follow‑up scans showed clots in Hurts’ lungs, raising safety concerns. Sharpe argues the league should conduct an independent review of the Eagles’ medical decisions rather than accept the team’s assurances, emphasizing that player health deserves the same scrutiny as other league matters.
Can JJ McCarthy Win NY Giants QB1 Job Permanently? NFL Insider Reveals If Jaxson Dart Should REALLY Worry

Jacobs is now eligible to practice, but his Week 7 game‑day status remains unclear, and the Packers’ temporary roster exemption expires Oct 26.

NFL trade deadline: Buffalo Bills trade candidate – Brian Thomas Jr.
The Buffalo Rumblings examines whether the Bills could snag Jaguars wideout Brian Thomas Jr. before the Oct. 21 trade deadline. Thomas, a 2024 rookie who posted 87 catches for 1,282 yards and 10 TDs, has seen his production plunge to a 0.95 yards‑per‑target rate and a 25% drop rate this season. At 6’2", 209 lb and a 4.33 sec 40‑yard dash, he fits the Bills' X or Z receiver roles, but his 2026 salary is only $1.07 M and a trade would likely cost a late‑Round 2 pick. The author doubts a second‑round price is justified unless the Bills prioritize depth over defensive needs. The piece weighs Thomas’s cost‑controlled upside against his recent decline, helping readers decide if the trade speculation merits a deeper read.

NFL Expert Cautions Jacksonville Jaguars About Brian Thomas Jr. Trade
ESPN insider Jeremy Fowler warns the Jacksonville Jaguars to think twice before trading wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr., even as the team enjoys a 4‑1 start. Thomas’s deep‑threat ability forces defenses to stay back, opening space for fellow receivers like Washington and Jakobi Meyers, and his removal could alter the entire passing attack. Fowler says a strong offer shouldn’t be ignored, but the Jaguars must weigh any return against the strategic value Thomas provides and their playoff push.
