The Dallas Cowboys are inviting former New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller for a visit on Tuesday, according to ESPN’s Todd Archer. Miller, a 24‑year‑old First‑team All‑Big 12 honoree from TCU, was drafted by the Saints in the third round (71st overall) in 2023 and released this November. With backup RB Tyler Goodson sidelined after a Week 9 injury, Dallas seeks depth. Miller has logged six games this season, rushing 159 yards on 57 carries with two touchdowns.
Smith called the Bears explosive and their defense exponentially better with Jeffery Simmons, then warned that hero ball ends seasons. The full case, after the Vikings loss.
The Indianapolis Colts penchant for playing injured players appears to have rolled over to their trade of Quenton Nelson to the Seattle Seahawks.
The Packers ran riot against New England, leading by as much as 28 points in the third quarter.
Las Vegas Raiders cornerback Jermod McCoy is slowly figuring things out in his suddenly-expanded role. We evaluate his play through two games in the rotation.
The Dallas Cowboys snap a losing streak with a 27-23 win over the Indianapolis Colts, but the victory masks deeper flaws. Dallas dominates the stat sheet—508 total yards, 35 minutes of possession, Dak Prescott’s 335 passing yards, CeeDee Lamb’s 195 receiving yards, and Javonte Williams’ 101 rush yards—yet converts only 5 of 16 third‑downs and commits two turnovers, including a costly Lamb fumble. The defense forces key turnovers but allows momentum‑changing plays and costly penalties that keep the Colts in the game. With the team now 4-5, the win feels fragile, highlighting the Cowboys’ need for consistent execution across offense, defense, and discipline.
The Detroit Lions pulled off a gritty 30‑23 win over the Miami Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium on Nov. 8, 2026, highlighting head coach Dan Campbell’s “ugly wins” mantra. After a sluggish first half—just 110 yards, six points and three sacks on Jared Goff—Lions guard Christian Mahogany barely played, sparking speculation about a disciplinary issue. The Lions rallied in the second half as Gibbs scored the only touchdown and the defense, led from a hospital room by Jack Campbell, sealed the victory. Social media buzzed with Honolulu Blue support and questions about Mahogany’s benching for rule violations. The win moves Detroit to 6‑2, underscoring Campbell’s tough‑love culture and the team’s resilience.

The Atlanta Falcons cut veteran kicker Nick Folk after he missed a sub‑40‑yard field goal for the first time since 2017, dropping his season FG rate to 72.2% (13/18). The team replaces him with 27‑year‑old Jake Moody, a former Ravens practice‑squad player who was a third‑round pick by the 49ers in 2023. Moody posted an 84% FG rate in his rookie year but fell to 72% in 2024 and struggled early in 2025 before bouncing around several teams. Atlanta hopes Moody can bring consistency to a position that has plagued them for years.
The 49ers' Jordan Watkins is benefiting from Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel's mentorship while making the most of his increased opportunities in San Francisco.
The Vikings’ offensive struggles could put their head coach on the hot seat.
49ers defensive tackle Gracen Halton sustains a broken and dislocated ankle in the Week 9 victory over the Raiders, ending his 2026 season. Coach Kyle Shanahan says the injury should fully heal for 2027. Halton, a 2026 fourth‑round pick (No. 107 overall), logged 15 tackles, five TFLs, two sacks and a defensive touchdown in eight games this year. The injury mirrors LB Fred Warner’s 2025 ankle setback, which sidelined him for 105 days.
An hour after announcing a deal to send edge rusher Arnold Ebiketie to Cincinnati, the Eagles' trade falls apart as the Bengals reconsider its impact on their compensatory draft picks. The original swap—Ebiketie for a 2027 sixth‑rounder—would actually cost Cincinnati a 2027 third‑round compensatory pick tied to the Trey Hendrickson trade, a detail the Bengals initially missed. With the deadline still open, Ebiketie remains in Philadelphia, underscoring the Eagles' commitment to Nolan Smith and signaling limited playing time for Ebiketie alongside a healthy Jonathan Greenard.
On Nov. 10, 2026, Shannon Sharpe and Bomani Jones – both HBCU alumni – slam Michael Vick and Norfolk State after the Spartans’ disastrous loss to North Carolina Central caused by a botched victory‑formation call. On "Nightcap," Sharpe says any coordinator or quarterback who ignores a coach’s win‑call should be fired on the spot, and the player should be cut. On "The Right Time," Jones echoes the sentiment, demanding the responsible staff be publicly dismissed, even calling Vick’s silence unacceptable. Their harsh take underscores the stakes of game‑ending decisions in college football.
Jordan Schultz reports that the Los Angeles Chargers appear more open to trading players after a week of 0-8 losses. While veteran OLB Khalil Mack – a former 2014 first‑round pick now on a one‑year, $18 million deal – remains a long‑shot, the team may flip other expiring‑contract assets such as CB Donte Jackson, OLB Bud Dupree and DT Dalvin Tomlinson for value. Mack, who has logged seven games this season with 21 tackles, five TFLs and three sacks, could stay, but the trade market is heating up as the deadline approaches.
Kerr Smith played the high school football player who had an unforgettable gay kiss on the hit TV show 'Dawson's Creek.' He spills the tea.
With the NFL trade deadline looming, the Eagles' cornerback Tariq Woolen is sparking interest across the league. The Cincinnati Bengals could use him to bolster the outside corner and shift Dax Hill to the slot, while the Buffalo Bills see Woolen as a fix for a struggling secondary after recent defensive lapses. Detroit’s Lions might upgrade from Rock Ya‑Sin and Roger McCreary, and Pittsburgh, fresh from trading Joey Porter Jr., could add depth alongside Jamel Dean. Even the Chicago Bears, despite a strong defense, view Woolen as a potential upgrade to a faltering corner rotation. The piece breaks down each team’s needs and fit.
The Buffalo Bills cruise to a 23-6 victory over the Minnesota Vikings at U.S. Bank Stadium, improving to 7-1 and leading the AFC East. Josh Allen throws for 234 yards and a TD, while James Cook rushes for 107 yards and a score. After a tight first half, Buffalo scores 13 unanswered points, highlighted by Tyler Bass’s perfect 3‑for‑3 field‑goal night. Minnesota’s offense stalls with just 178 yards and three turnovers, including two interceptions by Carson Wentz. The win solidifies Buffalo’s playoff push, while the Vikings fall to 6-2 in a competitive NFC North race.
After a 45-27 loss to the Green Bay Packers, the New England Patriots are tackling traffic snarls at Gillette Stadium with an incentive: a $50 Visa gift card for any vehicle that stays parked for a 75‑minute post‑game hold. The program aims to smooth the exodus of thousands of fans after home games, a move highlighted by a fan’s posted gift card on Twitter. The Patriots, now 3-1 this season and boasting a perfect home‑attendance streak since 1994, hope the cash bonus will keep crowds calm despite recent on‑field setbacks.

The Atlanta Falcons release veteran kicker Nick Folk after going 5‑for‑9 on field goals this season and sign 26‑year‑old Jake Moody from the Ravens practice squad. Folk, who was the league’s most accurate kicker over the past three years, struggled with short attempts and may be done in the NFL after a 19‑year career. Moody, who just made a 53‑yard field goal against Jacksonville, offers a younger, long‑term option after a modest rookie year in San Francisco and a 19‑of‑23 season last year.
Jerry Jones says the Dallas Cowboys will add a running back on the NFL trade‑deadline Tuesday, aiming to shore up a thin backfield after backup Tyler Goodson’s week‑9 knee injury. The move comes as the Cowboys sit just one win shy of .500, fresh off a win over the Colts and grappling with a division where every team’s starter QB is injured. Jones hinted the acquisition won’t involve a blockbuster trade, leaving fans curious whether the addition can spark a late‑season push for the NFC East crown.
After a 35-12 loss to the Chiefs, the New York Jets face their fourth straight defeat and growing trade chatter ahead of the Tuesday deadline. Fans suggest moving veteran quarterback Geno Smith, but ESPN insider Rich Cimini argues a trade would stunt the development of young offensive talent like Kenyon Sadiq, Omar Cooper Jr., and Mason Taylor, and could undermine head coach Aaron Glenn's future. Smith, who has 2,078 yards, 12 TDs and three interceptions this season, could instead serve as a 2027 mentor. The Jets now aim to bounce back against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.
The Washington Commanders travel to MetLife Stadium Thursday night to take on division-leading New York Giants (5-2-1) in a pivotal NFC East showdown. The Giants, fresh off a 19-11 win over Philadelphia, rely on QB Jameis Winston (1,028 yards, 8 TDs, 5 INTs) and top receiver Malik Nabers (53 catches, 648 yards). Washington, at 2-5-1, leans on dual‑threat QB Jayden Daniels (1,250 passing yards, 7 TDs; 252 rushing yards, 2 TDs) and WR Stefon Diggs (30 catches, 303 yards, 5 TDs). The Commanders hold a +7 turnover margin, while the Giants have committed 12 turnovers. Key injuries include WR Treylon Burks (out) and several Giants receivers and linebackers listed as questionable. The 8:15 p.m. ET game could reshape the East race.
After the Vikings’ 23-6 loss to the Bills on Nov. 10, 2026, fans argue that head coach Kevin O’Connell publicly called out wide receiver Justin Jefferson for “not even competing” on a late fourth‑quarter play. Lip‑reading clips of O’Connell’s headset comments sparked a debate on X, with many accusing Jefferson of a lazy route and disengagement despite 11 targets and only three catches for 58 yards. The criticism comes amid Minnesota’s second straight defeat and Jefferson’s eighth game this season without 100 receiving yards, fueling speculation about his future with the team.
