**Kyu Blu Kelly‘**s first season with the Raiders has come to an end in unwanted fashion. The third-year cornerback suffered a knee injury yesterday and he will not return in 2025.
Kelly was carted off the field during Vegas’ Week 14 loss to Denver. That suggested a lengthy absence could be in store, and testing has confirmed that is indeed the case. Kelly suffered a torn patellar tendon, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
As Garafolo adds, no ligament damage was suffered in this case. That represents only a small consolation in the near term, of course, but it means...

We're tracking the latest on what's happening around the NFL heading into Week 15 of the 2025 season.
The Buccaneers are walking a tightrope in the NFC South, but at least the injury picture is finally starting to tilt their way. Mike Evans and Jalen McMillan returned to practice this week, though neither was expected to suit up against the Saints as Tampa Bay chooses caution over desperation.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter has already indicated Evans has been targeting a Week 15 return, with the Thursday matchup against the Falcons or, at worst, Week 16 vs. Carolina circled as realistic dates as he works back from a broken clavicle that has limited him to 14 catches for 140 yards...

The Miami Dolphins’ season has long been over in the eyes of the public, but all they can do now is win out and hope for the best. Pulling off a miraculous finish or even just ending the season on a positive note can probably only be accomplished with a healthy De’Von Achane. The star running back exited Sunday’s 34-10 drubbing of the New York Jets after suffering a rib injury, but there is good news to share on Monday. He does not have a fracture and is “highly motivated” to play next Monday, per NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe.

According to Mike Garafolo, Raiders CB Kyu Blu Kelly was diagnosed with a ruptured patellar tendon and will miss the rest of the season.
It’s a big blow for Kelly, who had bounced around a few different teams before settling into a big role with the Raiders this year.
Kelly, 24, was a fifth-round pick to the Ravens out of Stanford in 2023. He was waived at the end of camp in 2023 and was claimed by Seattle. The Seahawks let him go in November and he was claimed again by the Packers before being let go in December.

Before the Detroit Pistons defeated the Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday, Cade Cunningham found time to talk about something else: the Super Bowl.
An avid Dallas Cowboys fan, Cunningham naturally wants to see them in the Super Bowl. At the same time, he also wants to see the Lions there, even though they both won’t be able to play against each other.
“You still think your Cowboys are going to the Super Bowl?” Eric Vincent of ClutchPoints asked him.
