The Green Bay Packers suffered a huge blow after tight end Tucker Kraft sustained a season-ending ACL injury in their loss to the Carolina Panthers on Sunday at Lambeau Field.

Kraft’s absence will further handicap the Packers, who are already dealing with various injuries to wide receivers Jayden Reed and Christian Watson, linebacker Brenton Cox Jr., and guard Aaron Banks.

Many have wished Kraft a speedy recovery, but wide receiver Romeo Doubs may have already unalived his teammate, as shown in a video of his interview that has gained traction on Reddit.

“I wouldn’t wish that (ACL injury) on one...

The New York Jets said goodbye to a beloved member of the defensive unit after shipping Quinnen Williams to the Dallas Cowboys before the trade deadline on Tuesday.

In exchange, the Cowboys sent Mazi Smith, a 2026 second-round pick, and a 2027 first-round pick to the Jets, who are seemingly already looking ahead amid another nightmarish campaign.

The Jets, who are languishing at the bottom with a 1-7 record, posted a farewell message for Williams after the trade.

“For everything you’ve given the last six years to the Green and White, thank you, @QuinnenWilliams,” posted the team on X.

The Los Angeles Chargers are preparing for a crucial Sunday Night Football matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the week’s biggest headline didn’t come from a player — it came from Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin. While breaking down the Chargers’ defense, Tomlin delivered a classic one-liner that quickly went viral.

The matchup carries major playoff implications for both AFC contenders. L.A. enters at 6-3, while the Steelers sits at 5-3, making Sunday night’s clash a pivotal test for each team’s postseason hopes.

During his press conference, Tomlin praised Chargers safety Derwin James for being the engine that drives the...

Prepare yourselves for my least popular opinion of the year. Omar Khan, Mike Tomlin, and the Pittsburgh Steelers stood pat at deadline day. Countering weeks, months really, of speculation that the team would add a wide receiver, Pittsburgh failed to boost the passing game or any other position. Perhaps not for a lack of trying. […]

After officially watching the rest of the NFL make their big swings in pursuit of the Philadelphia Eagles’ Lombardi Trophy, Howie Roseman decided to take a victory lap after his own series of moves, taking questions from reporters about an eventful start to the month of November.

Asked about all of Vic Fangio’s new weapons, which include Michael Carter II and Jaire Alexander, one question rose above the rest in terms of material importance: Will the Eagles extend newly acquired outside linebacker Jaelan Phillips before his new deal?

Breaking down that very question before his newly acquired edge rusher joins...

The Washington Commanders (3-6) desperately need a lucky break after losing quarterback Jayden Daniels to a dislocated elbow in Sunday’s ugly loss versus the Seattle Seahawks. Well, they just got one. Veteran linebacker Frankie Luvu, who was originally suspended one game for repeatedly performing the hip-drop tackle, will now receive a different form of punishment after appealing the NFL’s decision. It will still be a steep one, however.

Hearing officer and Hall of Fame LB Derrick Brooks reduced the suspension to a $100,000 fine, per NFL Senior Vice President of Football and International Communications Michael Signora. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers...

The Colts have been in the market for cornerback help; they are not skimping on price. A deal is in place that will send Sauce Gardner from New York to Indianapolis, NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport reports.

The Jets will move on months after making Gardner the NFL’s highest-paid cornerback. Indianapolis will send two first-round picks to the Jets for Gardner, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports. Gardner already thanked the Jets (via X), as his through-2030 contract is moving to the Colts’ payroll. The picks are in 2026 and 2027.
