Broncos

• ESPN’s Dan Graziano mentions Broncos DC Vance Joseph is getting a ton of buzz as a potential head coaching candidate this offseason based on his exceptional work with Denver’s defense.
• ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler says the Broncos have been bracing to lose DL John Franklin-Myers as a free agent following this season.

Chargers

The Chargers had receptions by nine different players in Week 10’s win over the Steelers. Los Angeles HC Jim Harbaugh said their ability to move the ball around is keeping defenses off balance.

“You can’t double everybody,” Harbaugh said, via[ Daniel Popper of...

49ers

• 49ers HC Kyle Shanahan said he wants to see “three aggressive practices” out of QB Brock Purdy before the team puts him back under center, meaning the team wants to see him as a full participant Wednesday through Friday. (Matt Barrows)
• 49ers WR Ricky Pearsall also returned to practice on Wednesday. Shanahan said he’s been cleared by their trainers and he plans on observing Pearsall in practice: “(Trainers) told me he’s healthy. When I see it with my own eyes, he’s good to go.” (Tafur)

Rams

• ESPN’s Dan Graziano notes Rams WR Puka Nacua...

The Seattle Seahawks enter a high-stakes Week 11 showdown at the Los Angeles Rams with a couple of worrying names on the injury report: safety Coby Bryant and wide receiver Tory Horton. Horton was downgraded to a non-participant on Thursday, while Bryant missed a practice earlier in the week because of a personal matter, leaving his status uncertain as kickoff approaches.

Horton’s downgrade stings because the rookie has already flashed playmaking ability this season. The Colorado State product has 13 catches for 161 yards and five touchdowns, via ESPN, and has also made noise on special teams, [including a long...

The Los Angeles Rams continue their climb toward the top of the NFC West, and preparations for Sunday’s divisional showdown brought a light moment involving Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp. The Rams have leaned on the chemistry that has fueled their 7-2 start, and the bond between their top playmaker and the former franchise star still carries weight even after roster changes. That connection remains meaningful for the Rams receivers, even with the veteran now playing for the Seattle Seahawks.

Kupp’s move came after the Rams released him in March 2025 when no trade partner emerged. The Seahawks signed him...

The Green Bay Packers had a chance to remain in first place in the NFC North last week in a confrontation with the Philadelphia Eagles. The Packers defense certainly did the job, holding Jalen Hurts and his teammates to one touchdown and 10 points, but the offense was held in check at Lambeau Field as Green Bay dropped a 10-7 decision.

The season moves along and the Packers (5-3-1) will have a chance to get back in the victory column against the struggling New York Giants (2-8). New York fired head coach Brian Daboll earlier this week and the team...

It was a tough loss for the Green Bay Packers last week, and Christian Watson had a regret. But he and his teammates are trying to focus on the Giants. And here’s why Watson doesn’t want anybody freaking out about his Week 11 injury status.

Watson said it’s soreness, according to a post on X by Rob Demovsky.

“Packers WR Christian Watson was limited in practice today, but before anyone freaks out when they see the injury report, he said it’s “just sore” and still considers himself in the “ramp-up stage” of his return. When asked if he expects to...

The 2025 Cincinnati Bengals have had issues with consistency this year. The defense has caused them issues all season, and the offense has had its fair share of problems since Joe Burrow got injured early on in the year and has been out ever since. Jake Browning and Joe Flacco were the two quarterbacks who have split snaps since Burrow’s injury, and Flacco has played well in his place since being traded.

Flacco started the year with the Browns and struggled, but he has since emerged as a solid option with the Bengals. Flacco injured his right shoulder and has...

The Patriots and Jets face off in an AFC East rivalry on Thursday Night Football. Here are the highlights!

Colts

At the end of the 2024 season, Colts owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon called players into her office following their 8-9 finish. Indianapolis TE Mo Alie-Cox recalled the moment, saying it’s something he’s never experienced in his nine-year career.

“I had never even been on that side of the building,” Alie-Cox said, via Stephen Holder of ESPN. “I didn’t know what was going on. I was like, ‘Bro, ownership is calling for us? S—.’ I was telling the younger guys, this ain’t ever happened. And I’ve been here for a while.”

Alie-Cox mentioned that Irsay-Gordon wanted to ensure the organization...

The AFC West is among the most interesting divisions so far in the 2025 NFL season, but the race there would have been much more riveting if the Las Vegas Raiders were part of it. They are seemingly not, as Pete Carroll’s team is on pace to finish last in the group. The Raiders only have two wins through 10 weeks and are entering Week 11 of the campaign on a three-game losing skid.

There is no hiding the truth about Las Vegas, and even Carroll is one to acknowledge it: the Raiders’ 2025 season is [not going according to...

Philadelphia Eagles’ wide receiver AJ Brown has been critical about the team’s offense lately, as he’s seemingly grown frustrated with how the 2025-26 season is playing out. While some fans and football analysts call out Brown over his comments, it appears running back Saquon Barkley agrees with his teammate.

The 28-year-old rusher claimed that he doesn’t believe Brown has said anything incorrect, according to Zach Berman of The Athletic. Overall, Barkley states that the Eagles are actively searching for ways to improve moving forward.

“Whether we score 10 or we score 40, A.J.’s not saying anything wrong,” said Barkley. “We’re...
