Breece Hall is inactive for the Jets’ matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders, marking his fifth straight week out after a quadriceps injury sustained on Sept. 27 against Detroit. Backup Braelon Allen has thrived, posting two 100‑yard games, a 4.6‑yard average and career‑highs of 418 rushing yards and 493 yards from scrimmage. The Jets also list David Bailey, Joseph Ossai, Nahshon Wright, Tim Patrick, Kohl Levao and Max Mitchell as inactives. Wright, a former Pro Bowler, has seen limited action and may be a trade candidate before the deadline.
A trade deadline buzz surrounds veteran QBs Kirk Cousins and Daniel Jones, but insiders say deals are unlikely. Cousins, the Raiders’ 38‑year‑old who leads the league with 16 TDs and sits third in passing yards (1,817), carries a $10 million guaranteed bonus due in March, yet Las Vegas plans to keep him despite a $1.3 million base salary and calls to start rookie Fernando Mendoza. Meanwhile, the Vikings, now 6‑0, have no intention of bringing back Jones, as the Colts flounder at 2‑5 after a fire‑sale. Both quarterbacks remain focused on playing out the season.
Kirk Cousins is on thin ice with Raider Nation, but Klint Kubiak is set to give him at least one last chance to prove he should remain the starter in Las Vegas.
Buffalo Bills wide receiver D.J. Moore is set to return after missing two games with a shoulder injury, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Moore, 29, hurt his shoulder in Week 2 against Detroit and aggravated it against New England, sitting out the Rams and Raiders wins. He has recorded 12 catches for 178 yards and a touchdown on 20 targets this season. The Bills expect him to suit up for the upcoming AFC showdown with the Baltimore Ravens, with the final inactive list due at 11:30 a.m. EDT.
The Raiders plan to keep veteran QB Kirk Cousins in the starting role through at least their Week 13 bye, according to Adam Schefter. Despite a four‑game losing streak that dropped the team to 3‑4, coach Klint Kubiak backs Cousins, citing his 62.6% completion rate, 1,877 yards, 16 TDs and five interceptions in seven starts this season. The tough stretch against the 49ers, Seahawks, Broncos and Browns drives the decision, with first‑round rookie Fernando Mendoza potentially taking over after the bye. Cousins’ 2026 salary is $20 million.
A win today for the New York Jets is crucial to keep their 2026 season alive. While their opponents, the Las Vegas Raiders, have lost their past four games, don’t be fooled: they have a high-powered passing attack. They’re tied for the most passing touchdowns (16) and have the third-most passing yards (1,883). In particular, ...

The result of the Las Vegas Raiders' Week 8 bout against the New York Jets may have wide-ranging implications with the trade deadline looming.
Adam Schefter reports there’s no trade talk for Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby. The 29‑year‑old, who rejected a rumored Rams deal after a blocked Ravens trade, wants to stay in Las Vegas. He’s in the final year of a four‑year, $98.98 million extension, with $22.2 million due in 2027. Crosby has logged 18 tackles, three TFLs, two sacks and a forced fumble in seven games this season. Any potential trade would require a massive price—likely two first‑round picks—though none is currently on the table.
The Las Vegas Raiders aim to snap a four‑game losing streak when they travel to face the New York Jets, hoping to become 5‑0 after starting 3‑0. Wide receiver Jack Bech returns from a fractured forearm, adding depth and a potential red‑zone threat; he has one touchdown this season. Meanwhile, rookie Patrick Johnson is placed on injured reserve, clearing a roster spot for Bech. The team also promotes Cian Slone and Tim Keenan to bolster the defensive line for the Week 8 matchup.
The Los Angeles Rams experiment with a three‑kicker package for their Week 8 showdown against the Los Angeles Chargers, activating veteran Brandon McManus, rookie Joshua Karty and punter Ethan Evans. McManus will handle field goals while Karty, known for his knuckleball kickoffs, is expected to boost weak kickoff coverage. The move follows a recent special‑teams collapse, including a game where Raiders returners broke off 40‑plus‑yard returns. Coach Sean McVay hopes the unconventional strategy will spark improvement as the Rams also grapple with injuries to Davante Adams and a roster full of pending free agents.
The New York Jets have released their full list of inactives ahead of their Week 8 game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Is Breece Hall playing today?
The Jets name Braelon Allen as the starter for Sunday’s game against the Las Vegas Raiders while Breece Hall remains sidelined with a quad injury. Allen boasts two 100‑yard outings and nearly 5 yards per carry, making him a solid fantasy play. Hall, who has 163 rushing yards on 51 carries and one TD this season, is expected to miss this week but could return next week, according to ESPN. The Jets are 2‑5 and looking to snap a losing streak under coach Aaron Glenn.
Dallas Cowboys’ hopes for a Max Crosby trade evaporate as ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the Las Vegas Raiders have no intention of moving their five‑time Pro Bowl pass rusher before the Nov. 10 deadline. The Cowboys, tied for dead‑last with only seven sacks and conceding about 26 points per game, had been linked to the former Ravens defensive end to boost a struggling defense heading into Week 8. Raiders officials say Crosby doesn’t want to leave and no trade talks have occurred, despite the Raiders’ 3‑4 record and playoff aspirations.
The Las Vegas Raiders picking Fernando Mendoza looks even better as the 2027 quarterback class continues to struggle.
After a 17‑13 defeat to the winless Miami Dolphins in Week 7, the New York Jets slip to 2‑5 and fan confidence plunges to just 33 percent, according to SB Nation’s weekly poll. The loss follows an ugly road defeat to the Patriots and sets up a critical clash with the Raiders that could drop the record to 2‑6. With upcoming games against the Chiefs and Bills, the Jets’ competitive window looks to be closing, and poll numbers may near zero unless they reverse the negative momentum.
The Las Vegas Raiders say they have no plans to trade star defensive end Maxx Crosby before the NFL deadline on Nov. 10, confirming his desire to stay a "Raider for life." ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that a source says Crosby "absolutely does not want to leave" and the team hasn't discussed any deals this season. The rumor mill, which surged after a failed Baltimore Ravens trade for two first‑round picks, has cooled as the Raiders sit 3‑4 after four straight losses. While other clubs can still inquire, Las Vegas appears committed to keeping Crosby as a defensive leader.

Gang Green Nation predicts the Jets’ offensive line will be the decisive factor in Sunday’s clash with the Las Vegas Raiders. While the Raiders rank last in the NFL with only 5.0 yards per carry allowed, the Jets have struggled to run, averaging under 100 yards per game, though they’ve improved to 113 yards over their last three outings.
