The Green Bay Packers held workouts on Monday for six quarterbacks and tight ends, eyeing practice‑squad depth as running back Chris Brooks and edge rusher Micah Parsons are expected to return to the 53‑man roster. The QBs include Bradley Carter, a former Toledo and South Alabama all‑Sun Belt player who spent time with the Raiders, 49ers and Jaguars, and Jalen Morton, a former Packers undrafted free agent now coming off a productive USFL season. Tight‑end prospects featured are Zach Davidson (ex‑Vikings, UFL champion), Kenny Fletcher Jr. (undrafted Rutgers convert), and Zack Kuntz, the top‑rated 2023 TE prospect. The sessions reflect Green Bay’s search for versatile depth ahead of upcoming games.
The Los Angeles Rams place star wide receiver Puka Nacua on injured reserve after he suffered MCL and PCL sprains during the Rams' 20-13 win over the Washington Commanders on Nov. 9. Nacua, who posted 14 catches for 150 yards and a TD in that game and leads the team with 70 catches, 715 yards and four touchdowns this season, will miss at least four games. His absence, compounded by Davante Adams also on IR, forces Sean McVay to reshuffle an offense that has relied heavily on Nacua’s production as Matthew Stafford’s top target.
Can Seattle weather the storm of injuries and make a real title defense?
Veteran center Lucas Patrick, who steadied Washington’s line after signing on Sept. 16, enters concussion protocol after a head injury against the L.A. Rams, making his availability for Thursday’s matchup with the New York Giants uncertain. He was listed as a DNP on Monday’s injury report, while coach Dan Quinn leaves the backup spot open between Nick Allegretti and rookie Matt Gulbin. Cornerback Amik Robertson’s ankle looks minor, and the team is optimistic about his Thursday return. Wideout Treylon Burks, tight end Colson Yankoff, and several others remain limited or out.
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Gardner Minshew faces another arm injury test, raising the chance he could miss the Sunday game against the Los Angeles Rams. If Minshew is sidelined, rookie Carson Beck may make his NFL regular‑season debut, having impressed in a Hall of Fame preseason outing (15‑of‑19, 188 yards, TD). Minshew earned the start after a 33‑30 OT win over Dallas, while veteran Jacoby Brissett now sits as emergency third‑string. The team also lost top receiver Michael Wilson to a season‑ending neck injury, deepening the quarterback dilemma for head coach Mike LaFleur.
The Los Angeles Rams likely place wideout Puka Nacua on injured reserve after he sprained his PCL and MCL—and suffered turf toe—on the final play of the 20‑13 win over Washington on Nov. 9. Nacua finished with a career‑highlight 14 catches, 150 yards and a touchdown, but the injury means he’ll miss at least four games. With Davante Adams already on IR, the Rams’ receiving corps is thin, prompting GM Les Snead to consider a trade‑deadline acquisition to keep their Super Bowl push alive.
The Arizona Cardinals could trade for a new WR after Michael Wilson's season-ending injury.
Hall of Fame Steelers linebacker Jack Ham, who now calls Penn State football games, is recovering well after a medical episode on Saturday. Penn State coach Matt Campbell first reported Ham was in stable condition, and Monday’s update from his broadcast partner Steve Jones says his health has improved significantly. The post provides the latest details on Ham’s status and the reassuring comments from those close to him.
The Buffalo Bills promote WR Trent Sherfield and S Geno Stone to the active roster for their Week 9 Monday Night Football showdown with the Minnesota Vikings. Stone, elevated for a second straight week, logged 19 defensive snaps, six tackles (including a tackle for loss) and contributed on special teams versus the Ravens. Sherfield, also on his second elevation, recorded seven offensive snaps and 17 special‑teams snaps, adding two tackles. Meanwhile, wideout Joshua Palmer lands on Injured Reserve after a Week 8 injury, ending his season‑long trade eligibility and sidelining him for at least four games. The moves reshape the Bills' depth heading into the primetime clash.
The Philadelphia Eagles trade defensive tackle Jordan Davis to the Jacksonville Jaguars for a 2027 first‑round pick and a 2029 second‑round pick, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The move caps a busy Monday for Jacksonville, which also added Pro Bowl safety Jessie Bates and DT Davon Godchaux before the Nov 10 deadline. Davis, a 2022 first‑rounder with 31 tackles and 1.5 sacks in nine games, helped Philadelphia win Super Bowl LIX. The Jaguars (6‑2) aim to bolster a three‑game AFC South lead, while the Eagles (2‑7) stockpile 10 early‑round picks for the next three drafts.
The Buffalo Bills place WR Josh Palmer on injured reserve after a hamstring injury against the Ravens, making a roster move ahead of the 2026 trade deadline. Palmer, who has four catches for 117 yards and two touchdowns this season, could return after Thanksgiving, but the team may trade him to free up cap space. With Tyrell Shavers and Jordan Hancock practicing to fill his spot, the Bills elevated Trent Sherfield and are giving Skyler Bell more snaps, eyeing a 53‑man roster addition.
The NFL has reinstated 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk from Reserve/Left Squad, granting San Francisco a two‑week roster exemption that expires on Nov. 23. General manager John Lynch must decide whether to trade, release, or eventually activate the 28‑year‑old, who last played in 2024‑25 before a knee injury and subsequent disciplinary issues that cost the team about $27 million in guaranteed money. With the trade deadline looming on Nov. 10, a deal with Washington or another club is possible, but keeping Aiyuk on the active roster remains unlikely. Aiyuk’s career totals include 294 catches for 4,305 yards and 25 TDs.
NFL fans convinced head coach is getting fired after what happened following team's Week 9 loss
A superstar Cardinals pass-catcher won't play again this season.
The New Jersey Devils announced they will sit Connor Hellebuyck for his return against the Winnipeg Jets on Nov. 9, claiming it could lower their win probability. The move sparked a firestorm, with broadcasters, analysts and fans calling the decision "garbage," "disgusting" and a baseless excuse. Critics argue the claim lacks statistical merit and hurts Hellebuyck’s reputation ahead of a potential trade, while the Devils’ GM Sunny Mehta defends the choice. The controversy dominates NHL talk shows and social media, suggesting more drama to come.
Jacksonville and Philadelphia make headlines with a major NFL deadline deal.
The Jacksonville Jaguars fire up their defense before the Nov. 10 trade deadline, acquiring former Pro Bowl safety Jessie Bates III from the Atlanta Falcons for a 2027 second‑round and a 2028 fifth‑round pick, and trading for Saints defensive tackle Davon Godchaux. The Saints receive a conditional 2028 sixth‑rounder that could become a 2027 pick. With both players added, the 6‑2 Jaguars position themselves as AFC Super Bowl contenders ahead of their Week 14 Monday Night clash with the Steelers.
Rams head coach Sean McVay says wide receiver Puka Nacua will likely go on injured reserve after sustaining an MCL/PCL sprain and turf toe on the final offensive snap of the Week 9 win over Washington. An MRI ruled out a torn ACL, but the knee injury sidelines the 25‑year‑old fifth‑round pick, who has logged 70 receptions for 715 yards and four touchdowns in seven games this season. Nacua is in the final year of a four‑year, $4.1 million contract that runs through 2026.

Here's where the Eagles sit in terms of draft capital after the Jordan Davis trade.
The Philadelphia Eagles trade team captain defensive tackle Jordan Davis to the Jacksonville Jaguars for Jacksonville’s 2027 first‑round pick and 2029 second‑round pick, giving Philly a total of 10 first‑two‑round selections across three upcoming drafts. Davis, who signed a three‑year, $78 million deal in March, leaves after leading the locker room and contributing to the Super Bowl‑winning defense. Jacksonville, 6‑2 through Week 9, adds Davis to bolster its interior line for a 2026 playoff push. The move also frees cap space for the Eagles to retain Moro Ojomo.
The Jacksonville Jaguars, sitting 6‑2 and vying for the AFC top seed, make a third trade before the 2026 deadline, acquiring defensive tackle Jordan Davis from the Philadelphia Eagles. Jacksonville sends a 2027 first‑round and a 2029 second‑round pick, while the Eagles collect five first‑ and five second‑round selections to aid their rebuild. Davis, under contract through 2029, posted 31 tackles, 1.5 sacks and three QB hits in nine games for Philadelphia. The move solidifies a projected Jags defensive line with Travon Walker, Davon Godchaux, Davis and Josh Allen‑Hines, boosting their pass‑rush potential.
The Jacksonville Jaguars have become the NFL’s trade‑deadline frontrunner, acquiring three impact players in just one day. Jacksonville trades a 2027 first‑rounder, a 2029 second‑rounder, plus a 2028 fifth‑ and sixth‑round pick for Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Jordan Davis (No. 13 overall in 2022). The Jaguars also add Falcons safety Jessie Bates III and Saints defensive tackle Davon Godchaux, sending away additional future picks. At 6‑2, Jacksonville sits as the AFC’s No. 3 seed, holding the tiebreaker over the Steelers, who now face a tougher road: a Week 11 clash against a Davis‑less Eagles and a Week 14 Monday Night Football showdown with a now‑loaded Jaguars that looms as Pittsburgh’s toughest remaining game.
The Philadelphia Eagles trade defensive tackle Jordan Davis to the Jacksonville Jaguars for a 2027 first‑round pick and a 2029 second‑round pick, a move that shocks fans after Davis signed a three‑year, $78 million extension in March. Davis, a 2022 first‑rounder from Georgia, posted 193 tackles, 17 TFLs and 9.5 sacks over five seasons and helped anchor the line that powered the Eagles to a Super Bowl LIX blowout over the Chiefs. The deal gives Philadelphia multiple first‑round selections in 2027 and 2028, including a pick from the Patriots via the A.J. Brown trade, while the Jaguars make their third defensive trade of the day. The Eagles also aim to keep defensive lineman Moro Ojomo before the trade deadline.
The Vikings’ hunt for a running back intensifies as the Green Bay Packers, also desperate after RB Josh Jacobs faces legal trouble and a fractured ring‑finger surgery, enter the market. Minnesota’s backfield woes—injuries to Aaron Jones, Jordan Mason and Demond Claiborne’s IR spot—push GM Nolan Teasley to consider trade offers, possibly outbidding Green Bay for talent like Alvin Kamara, Jonathan Taylor or Tony Pollard before the Nov. 10 deadline. With the Bears and Lions already moving, the Vikings must balance cost against need ahead of a Monday Night Football showdown with the Bills.
