NFL Trade Rumors
Dolphins QB Quinn Ewers led the Dolphins to a win over the Buccaneers in his second career start, putting up impressive numbers that included two touchdowns and no interceptions, something that impressed HC Mike McDaniel.
“I think Quinn played a very good game with what we asked him to do,” McDaniel said, via DolphinsWire.com. “He was very responsible but aggressive with the football.

Patriots DT Christian Barmore had some strong words for Jets OT Armand Membou after what he perceived to be dirty play from the opposing offensive lineman.
“I respect this game. I respect every player, whoever I play again. I never do dirty stuff like that. I don’t care if you’re getting your ass whooped like that. Play better,” Barmore said, via MassLive.com. *“That’s some dirty (expletive) right there. I told him to meet me at the locker room. I said, if not the locker room, come see me on the field.
