Lions | Lions have received calls on Sam LaPorta, would like to keep him Tue Nov 10, 12:20 AM
The Lions have received calls from other teams about TE Sam LaPorta. Teams have gotten the impression that Detroit would like to keep LaPorta and eventually try to work out a long-term deal with him.
| Footballguys view: LaPorta is in the final year of his rookie contract, and both he and the team have been open about wanting to sign an extension. As SBNation noted, general manager Brad Holmes has previously expressed a desire to reach a long-term deal with LaPorta. Still, he has yet to address the media since reports of stalled negotiations. While not definitive, this report from Fowler suggests the Lions haven't given up on getting a deal done. |

Chargers | Justin Herbert avoids finger fracture, should be 'good to go' Tue Nov 10, 12:19 AM
Chargers QB Justin Herbert avoided a fracture of the middle finger on his left, non-throwing hand in Sunday's loss to the Texans, head coach Jim Harbaugh said on Monday. Herbert should be "good to go" moving forward, The Athletic reported.
| Footballguys view: Herbert had his left hand surgically repaired during the 2025 season after breaking a bone in the back of the hand during a Week 13 game. He played through the injury and expects to play through his current injury, he said postgame. The Chargers, who play the Ravens on Monday Night Football in Week 10, have lost 11 consecutive games. |

Cardinals | Gardner Minshew likely needs season-ending surgery on torn UCL Tue Nov 10, 12:18 AM
Cardinals QB Gardner Minshew II is seeking additional medical opinions to confirm that he likely will need season-ending surgery on a torn UCL, sources told ESPN's Josh Weinfuss.
| Footballguys view: Minshew suffered the injury before halftime of Sunday's 17-3 loss to the Seahawks and played the second half with it. With Minshew expected to be out, the Cardinals are set to turn to rookie quarterback Carson Beck on Sunday against the Rams. The team also plans to sign veteran Josh Johnson off the Bengals' practice squad. With WR Michael Wilson suffering a season-ending fractured neck, Trey McBride will be even more important for Beck and the Cardinals. |

49ers | Mike Evans facing an extended absence? Tue Nov 10, 12:16 AM
49ers WR Mike Evans missed Sunday's win over the Raiders with Achilles tendinitis, which 'could keep him sidelined for weeks.' The 49ers visit the Cowboys in Week 10.
| Footballguys view: Evans, hasn't played since Week 6, and he definitely won't practice to start the week. "Mike, not expecting him to be ready to go," Shanahan said of Wednesday's practice. "We'll see how he is later in the week." Sounds like expecting Evans to play this week is a reach, but we'll follow up as needed. |

Patriots | Rhamondre Stevenson's knee tendon issue not expected to require surgery Tue Nov 10, 12:15 AM
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson is dealing with a knee tendon issue that is not expected to require surgery but could sideline him for a short period of time, a source said on Monday. Stevenson left Sunday's loss to the Packers with the knee injury and did not return.
| Footballguys view: Stevenson sustained the injury late in the third quarter of the Patriots' blowout loss to the Packers on Sunday, when he was twisted down on a 6-yard reception. The Patriots trailed 42-14 at the time. With No. 2 running back TreVeyon Henderson missing the past two games because of an illness, the Patriots could be down to their third and fourth options -- Corey Kiner and Lan Larison, respectively -- for Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions in Munich. Kiner, whom the Patriots acquired in a trade with the Cardinals on Aug. 29, could get an increased workload. |

The Eagles traded DT Jordan Davis to the Jaguars on Monday for a 2027 first-round pick and a 2029 second-round pick, the team announced.

He is coming off his best game of the season, with a sack, two tackles for loss, a QB hit and three tackles in Sunday's loss to the Giants.

Palmer has four catches for 117 yards and two touchdowns this season. |

Commanders WR Treylon Burks (foot) has a chance to play in Thursday's Week 10 game against the Giants, and head coach Dan Quinn said on Monday that the team is optimistic about it.
| Footballguys view: Burks was ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams with the foot injury. Burks led the Commanders in receiving yards during their Week 8 win over the Eagles. He is the only legitimate downfield threat without Terry McLaurin, and the trust with quarterback Jayden Daniels is growing. His return would be a plus for the offense. |

| Footballguys view: ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported earlier Monday that the Browns plan to start Watson in Week 10 against the Texans. The looming decision follows Sanders' late rally in Sunday's 23-22 overtime loss to the Saints. Of course, it makes sense that Monken and the Browns aren't looking to fill the Texans in on their plan. That said, we'll continue to watch for more. |

Panthers head coach Dave Canales said on Monday that the team will have to see how the next two days go before deciding whether to open the 21-day practice window for RB Jonathon Brooks, who was placed on injured reserve in September following core muscle surgery.
| Footballguys view: As CBSSports.com reported, Brooks, who remains on IR, was seen working off to the side during the Panthers' unofficial practice last Tuesday, perhaps signaling some progress for the oft-injured RB, who last saw game action in Week 2. In Brooks' absence, Chuba Hubbard has dominated Carolina's backfield touches. Hubbard is currently RB10 overall through Sunday's Week 9 games. |

Cowboys | Tyler Goodson 'probably gonna miss some time' Mon Nov 9, 01:31 PM
Cowboys RB Tyler Goodson (knee) is "probably gonna miss some time," Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones said on 105.3 The Fan on Monday. "He's got a real injury that unfortunately he's probably gonna miss some time with," Jones said.
| Footballguys view: Goodson was hurt in Sunday's win over the Colts and was initially questionable to return before going back into the game. As SI.com noted, Goodson's injury stings because he provided some explosiveness to the running game as the offense was attempting to get back on track. Dallas has become more reliant on the run, but will now need to look elsewhere for additional depth behind Javonte Williams until Goodson is healthy enough to return to the field. |

Chiefs | Andy Reid: Patrick Mahomes 'day-to-day' with elbow injury Mon Nov 9, 01:26 PM
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes is day-to-day with an elbow injury, head coach Andy Reid said on Monday. Reid said he had seen Mahomes on Monday and the quarterback was in "good spirits." Mahomes' MRI after Sunday's win over the Jets did not reveal a major elbow injury.
| Footballguys view: Mahomes finished Sunday's game completing 23 of his 31 passes for 242 yards and two touchdowns, even though he averaged just 2.8 air yards per attempt, his second-fewest in a game in his career, according to Next Gen Stats. The Chiefs' training staff is expected to monitor Mahomes in hopes of reducing the swelling in his elbow and his pain when throwing the ball. Reid said he didn't know if Mahomes would be able to have his full reps during the Chiefs' three practices this week. The Chiefs' next game is Sunday against the Falcons in Atlanta. |

Chiefs | Xavier Worthy considered day-to-day Mon Nov 9, 01:04 PM
Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (hamstring) is considered day-to-day, head coach Andy Reid said on Monday. Worthy went down grabbing his hamstring during Sunday's win over the Jets.
| Footballguys view: Some believe the best-case scenario for Worthy is that he misses a couple of weeks with his hamstring injury, like Rashee Rice did when he tweaked his hamstring. Reid's assessment seems more optimistic. Remember, the Chiefs are already thin at wide receiver, with Tyquan Thornton on IR recovering from an ankle dislocation, and the team is said to be in the market for help at the position before Tuesday's trade deadline. |

Macdonald also ruled out QB Sam Darnold for Sunday's game in Las Vegas.

Buccaneers | Bowles says Bucs will 'try and lessen the load' on Bucky Irving after bye Mon Nov 9, 12:45 PM
Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving has run well but is on pace for 315 rushing attempts this season. Head coach Todd Bowles said Monday that the team will have to try and lessen the load on Irving after the bye week.
| Footballguys view: Irving had a game-high 97 yards on 20 carries and both of Tampa's touchdowns in Sunday night's loss to the Bears. He added a team-high four receptions for 28 yards. With Tampa sitting at 3-0 this season when Irving hits 100 yards rushing, he fell just short this night, and so did the Bucs. The question is, will limiting his workload also limit the offense? We'll be watching for more on this over the Buccaneers bye week. |

Raiders | Ashton Jeanty plays 64% of snaps vs. 49ers, Washington at 34% Mon Nov 9, 12:05 PM

| Footballguys view: The Raiders' running back situation has been awful all season, but it hit a new low in Sunday's loss to the 49ers. Jeanty had a historically bad game catching passes out of the backfield, finishing with five catches for negative five yards. Jeanty was their leading rusher, with 25 yards on six carries. Washington had six carries for negative three yards. Between the two of them, Jeanty and Washington had 17 touches for 17 yards. Things won't get easier for the duo going up against the Seahawks in Week 10. |
