Until this week, Chase Brown had not taken more than 49 snaps in a game all season. This week, he took 65 of the team’s 68 offensive snaps. While Brown has been the team’s primary rusher, Samaje Perine usually gets somewhere between 25% and 50% of snaps. Perine is a punishing runner who is also a trusted pass protector.

This week, they were looking for something different out of the running back on passing downs. Chase Brown led the team in targets (14) and receptions (8) while piling up 75 yards receiving.

This explains another interesting snap count tidbit. Generally,...

After the Philadelphia Eagles tush pushed their way to a Super Bowl title in 2024, the play faced scrutiny. The Green Bay Packers led the charge to ban the tush push over the offseason. However, the proposal to kill the play didn’t garner enough support and the push survived.

The Eagles have continued pushing tush in 2025, running the play four straight times at one point against the New York Giants. Now Philadelphia will face Green Bay for the first time since the ban proposal. And it’s clear that Matt LaFleur is annoyed about having to defend against the play...

Jaelan Phillips said Monday that being traded to the Philadelphia Eagles “is literally the greatest thing to happen to me in my whole life,” and you could hear the relief and excitement in his voice, via Zach Berman of The Athletic on X, formerly Twitter.

The move, a pre-deadline trade with the Miami Dolphins that sent a 2026 third-round pick back to South Florida, immediately plugs a glaring hole for a team that wants to defend its title.

The Eagles are 6-2 and lead the NFC East, but their pass rush has been inconsistent all season. Phillips gives Philadelphia a...

Tonight’s Thursday Night Football game gets Week 10 of the NFL season underway with an AFC West rivalry matchup. Two teams headed in different directions will square off tonight as the division-leading Denver Broncos host the last-place Las Vegas Raiders in prime time.

The Broncos are in the midst of an impressive turnaround under head coach Sean Payton. Last year, they went 10-7 and made the playoffs with rookie quarterback Bo Nix, and in 2025 Denver is atop one of the better divisions with a 7-2 record. Last season saw Denver sweep the two games against the Raiders, with both...

For the second day in a row, the Ravens had a blank injury report. All 53 players on the active roster are healthy and were full participants in practice on Monday and Tuesday.

There is little else to say about the Ravens’ good health at present. Of course, players can still be dealing with wear and tear on their bodies, but nothing is significant enough to limit them on the field.

Of the Vikings that did not practice on Wednesday due to injury, two participated in a limited capacity on Thursday: safety Theo Johnson and running back Aaron Jones. Cornerback...

The 2025 WPIAL playoffs began last week with first round games in 1A through 5A. due to the WPIAL Champion entering the statewide bracket in the quarterfinals, only 8 teams made the playoffs. The champion will be crowned at Pine-Richland High School on November 15. The PIAA’s decision related to the WPIAL Champion entering the statewide bracket limited the number of weeks available for the WPIAL playoffs, shrinking the playoff field to only eight teams. The WPIAL 4A Champion enters the statewide bracket in the quarterfinals and will face either District 10 Champion Oil City or the District 9 Champion....

Brock Purdy has only played in two games this season, as the San Francisco 49ers quarterback has been dealing with turf toe. With 10 on the horizon, head coach Kyle Shanahan weighs in on the possibility of Purdy’s return to the field.

The 45-year-old head coach claims that Purdy is getting closer to returning to action during a guest appearance on “The Sports Leader” on KNBR. However, his Week 10 status remains unclear, as the 49ers will have a better idea of Purdy’s status by Friday. With Brock Purdy missing so much time, the concern is that he could miss...

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones made progress in practice on Thursday ahead of the team’s Week 10 clash against the Baltimore Ravens at U.S. Bank Stadium, providing some relief for fantasy football managers closely monitoring his status.

Dealing with a right shoulder AC joint sprain and a minor toe issue, the 30-year-old participated in a limited practice session after sitting out on Wednesday. This comes after he suffered the shoulder injury early in the second half of Minnesota’s Week 9 27-24 win over the Detroit Lions.

Jones’ return against Detroit was highly productive, though brief. He carried the ball...

The Cardinals signed Jeff Driskel to their practice squad, per a team announcement, adding a third quarterback to their team after playing Kyler Murray on injured reserve.

Driskel, 32, spent most of the 2023 season on Arizona’s practice squad. He was elevated for one game during the regular season but did not play. Last year, he played exactly one snap for the Commanders.

Originally a sixth-round pick by the 49ers in 2016, Driskel did not appear in a regular-season game until 2018 for the Bengals. He started five games that year, but spent the next four years with three different...

Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel could not have kicked off his first season at the helm of New England any better.

New England currently has a 7-2 record, placing it first in the AFC East. This marks a significant turnaround from last season, when the Patriots secured four victories.

Despite Vrabel’s excellent performance, he is not the favorite to win the NFL Coach of the Year award. As of Tuesday, BetMGM listed him with the second-best odds at +175, trailing behind Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen at +150.

Steichen is doing a great job with the Colts, getting them...

The 2025 WPIAL playoffs began last week with first round games in 1A through 5A. With only four teams qualifying for the 6A playoffs, those teams all had a bye last week leading up to this week’s semifinals. The 6A Championship Game will be held at Pine-Richland high school on Saturday, November 15. The WPIAL 6A Champion enters the statewide bracket in the quarterfinals and will face a team from either District 2, 4, 6 or 10. Since there are only 7 teams in 6A, these teams have already faced each other in the regular season so the playoff games...

The Colts locker room got a morale boost when the team shipped away multiple high-level draft picks in order to bring CB Sauce Gardner to Indianapolis, a sign that the front office believes in what the team has.

“I think they obviously believe in our team and [what] we can do this year,” Colts QB Daniel Jones said, via ESPN. “*This year, we’ve played well. There’s still a lot in front of us and we’ve got to continue to improve and play well week to week. But we as players, when you see that movement from ownership, from...
