Boye Mafe is a pending free agent and it was reported not long before the trade deadline he is unlikely to remain in place with the Seahawks. As a result, a trade would have come as little surprise.

One was nearly worked out. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Seattle was in talks about a Mafe trade with the Chiefs. He adds the teams came close to finalizing a swap, with one source thinking a trade was actually in place at one point. Instead, the Seahawks elected to keep the fourth-year edge rusher in the fold.

That was known to be...

The Denver Broncos won on Thursday night to set the bar in the AFC early in Week 10. On Sunday morning, the Indianapolis Colts found a way to win in overtime to pull even with the Broncos and retake first place in the conference on a tiebreaker.

The New England Patriots and Buffalo Bills are in action in the early afternoon window on Sunday. The Pittsburgh Steelers and Los Angeles Chargers play each other on Sunday night, so there are lots of things that can change here.

The first half of the New York Jets game against the Cleveland Browns is in the books, and the Jets are tied with the Browns, 17 – 17.

The game opened with the Jets on defense. They quickly drove the Browns backward and forced a three and out to start the game.

The Browns defense answered with a three and out of their own.

The Browns then went on a 95 yard drive ending in a Dillon Gabriel to David Njoku touchdown pass and an early 7 – 0 Browns lead.

The Jets immediately struck back with a 99 yard...

The Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals are set to face off in the Week 10 showdown at Lumen Field as Mike Macdonald and the team look to retain their perch atop the NFC West.

There has been no shortage of injuries to hit the roster in recent weeks, with the defense taking hits at all three levels during the Week 9 win over the Washington Commanders. Josh Jobe suffered a concussion and will miss Week 10, while the injuries that had Jarran Reed questionable heading into the game have now landed him on injured reserve. And in the second level...

Well, that was awful. There’s no sugar-coating things right now. This is unacceptable football out of the Buffalo Bills. Those of you looking for a silver lining can hang your hat on the fact that Buffalo is really only down two touchdowns and a pair of two-point conversions — that’s two possessions. There’s also a second half to play.

The same Bills that looked unstoppable in victory over the Kansas City Chiefs a weekend ago just played an entirely uninspired and sloppy first half in humid Miami. Someone needs to wake quarterback Josh Allen up, quick. That’s clearly not the...

The Cleveland Browns and the New York Jets head into the third quarter of their Week 10 match-up with the Jets and Browns tied 17-17. Highlights from the second quarter include:

• After the Browns punted, QB Justin Fields threw an interception right at S Ronnie Hickman.
• Starting at the 22 yard line, QB Dillon Gabriel then hit WR Jerry Jeudy for a touchdown on the first play to tie things up at 14-14.
• The Jets were able to tack on a short field goal before the end of the half to lead 17-14. New York gets the...

Tom Brady believes the 49ers should continue to start QB Mac Jones over Brock Purdy, even after the incumbent starter gets healthy.

The New England Patriots are looking to prove they’re true playoff contenders when they take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 10. Wide receiver Kyle Williams put the Patriots on the map with a history-setting touchdown pass.

Trailing 7-0, quarterback Drake Maye found Williams for a 72-yard touchdown pass. It was the longest passing play from New England since Kendrick Bourne caught a 75-yard grab in 2021, via Ben Volin of the Boston Globe.

Perfect throw from Drake Maye to Kyle Williams for the 72 yard TD, the Patriots' longest pass play since Kendrick Bourne's 75 yard TD...

Nearly three years ago, the Carolina Panthers traded D.J. Moore, two firsts, plus two second-round picks for the right to make Bryce Young the first overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. He’s led them to a very underwhelming 11-25 record since, failing to develop into a true franchise quarterback.

While the Panthers have been winning much more as of late, it’s not due to Young. However, if the Panthers want to take the next step toward playoff contention, they’ll need better play under center.

The NFL trade deadline has already passed, but we could see the Panthers reevaluate their...

The Seattle Seahawks (6-2) are winners of three straight and narrowly leading the NFC West via tiebreaker over the Los Angeles Rams. Before they play the Rams next week, they must first deal with the Arizona Cardinals (3-5), who ended their five-game losing streak last week with a win over the Dallas Cowboys and are still trying to push for the playoffs. Unlike the first meeting, which Seattle won 23-20, the Cardinals will start Jacoby Brissett at quarterback over the injured/benched Kyler Murray, while the Seahawks won’t have the likes of Julian Love, Jarran Reed, Josh Jobe, or Tory Horton...

The Atlanta Falcons could not get the job done in Berlin on Sunday morning. Atlanta lost 31-25 against Indianapolis and are now on a three-game losing streak. But Atlanta’s head coach still has faith in QB Michael Penix Jr.

Falcons head coach Raheem Morris gave a lame answer when asked about the play of Penix after the game.

“Michael always plays well and fights hard,” Morris said, per Falcons writer Terrin Waack.

Morris doubled down on that statement in his next answer to reporters. “Mike played well. He played well like he always does,” Morris added.

Penix went 12-of-28 for...

The New York Jets have had a bad season, losing its first seven games of the campaign. New York is fighting to post a win on Sunday, against the lowly Cleveland Browns. The Jets scored not one but two special teams touchdowns during the game.

One of the scores came on a 74-yard punt return from Isaiah Williams.
