It’s week 13 of the NFL season, and the 3-8 Washington Commanders will be facing a 9-2 Denver Broncos team at home in Northwest Stadium in Landover, MD this Sunday at 8:20 pm ET. After losing 2 of their first 3 games against the Colts and Chargers, the Broncos have gone on to win their last 8 games, despite all but one being within a single score.
On offense, the Broncos are coached by HC (and playcaller) Sean Payton and OC Joe Lombardi. Sean Payton has traditionally run a hybrid West Coast Offense focusing on short and intermediate passes, but...

Both the Washington Commanders and Denver Broncos will be coming into Sunday Night Football rested after a Week 12 bye. The Commanders got positive news amid their six-game slide with wide receiver Noah Brown’s 21-day window opening and quarterback Jayden Daniels returning to practice. Daniels is unlikely to play Sunday, although his return indicates he could be back on the field sometime before the end of the season.
Backup quarterback Marcus Mariota will be at the helm for his fourth start this weekend. Against...

The NFL’s Thanksgiving day football schedule is almost over, but we’ve got one more game tonight! The AFC North is battling it out in primetime with Joe Burrow returning to lead the Cincinnati Bengals against the Baltimore Ravens. It’s going to be too late to save the season, but they can do their best to ruin the Ravens’. Lamar Jackson is also dealing with multiple injuries as he tries to keep Baltimore at the top of a very competitive division.

The Washington Commanders are practicing again on Thanksgiving, and two wide receivers got their first full practice in weeks. Terry McLaurin (quad) hasn’t been a full participant since aggravating his quad injury in Week 8. Noah Brown has been on injured reserve since suffering a groin injury in Week 2, and is still listed with the knee injury from June. McLaurin is expected to return on Sunday night, but Brown could get another week. His 21-practice window was opened on Monday.
There are three other wide receivers on Thursday’s injury report. Treylon Burks is still limited after having finger surgery...

The NFL’s Thanksgiving day football schedule moves on to the second game, and it’s going to be a big one. Patrick Mahomes and the defending AFC Champion Kansas City Chiefs are going to Jerry World to face the Dallas Cowboys. The Chiefs have had a rough start to the season, but they’re above .500 and looking for a Wild Card spot with the Broncos dominating the AFC West this season. The Cowboys are coming off a win over the Philadelphia Eagles and their confidence is sky high. Everyone will be watching for them to mess it up.

Washington Commanders offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury spoke to a small group of reporters on Thanksgiving Day before the team hit the practice fields. Washington is expected to get several players back this week, and more could be on the way. Jayden Daniels isn’t expected to playa against the Broncos on Sunday night, but he returned to practice today. Kingsbury was asked about calling plays to protect him, but he’s going to call the game the way he always does. Daniels needs to take precautions, but still play the game his way.

The Commanders wide receiver is optimistic that he’ll play against the Broncos after missing seven of the past eight games.
Wide receiver Terry McLaurin recalled sprinting down the field during practice Wednesday, topping out at more than 21 mph as he collected a deep ball from quarterback Jayden Daniels.
For the Washington Commanders’ star duo, it was the sort of practice rep that bordered on monotonous a year ago. In 2025, it counts as a minor milestone.

There were not many surprises in Week 13 of the college football season. SEC teams like Texas A&M, Georgia, and Alabama played non-power conference and were never threatened with a loss. Oklahoma got the win over Missouri in a fairly low-scoring game. In the Big 12, BYU handled Cincinnati to remain in the playoff discussion while Utah squeaked out a win over Kansas State in a game that featured explosive scoring. The win over the Wildcats couldn’t keep the Utes in the top 12 of the playoff rankings as Miami replaced them after their win over Virginia Tech. Ohio State...

The Washington Commanders are back from their bye week, and should also be getting some players back from injury. They held their first full practice today, and now have a better idea of who will be available for Sunday night’s home game against the Denver Broncos. QB Jayden Daniels returned to practice without a brace on his dislocated left elbow and a non-contact jersey. Head coach Dan Quinn said it’s unlikely Daniels will play vs the Broncos, but they are preparing him for when he is medically cleared. He was limited for his first practice back with the team.
