Cowboys | Two Cowboys cleared to practice Wed Nov 20, 12:13 PM
Dallas Cowboys WR Brandin Cooks (knee) and DE Marshawn Kneeland (knee) were designated to return from injured reserve on Wednesday, Nov. 20.
| Footballguys view: Cooks hasn't played since Week 4, but there's no guarantee that he plays in Week 12. With a game on Thanksgiving in Week 13, the Cowboys could choose to keep him out of action until then. Without Cooks, the Cowboys have been searching for other receivers not named CeeDee Lamb to produce. KaVontae Turpin has flashed a bit this year, catching three passes for 86 yards and a touchdown in Week 11. |

Bears | Collin Johnson promoted Wed Nov 20, 12:03 PM
Chicago Bears WR Collin Johnson was promoted from the practice squad to the active roster on Wednesday, Nov. 20.
| Footballguys view: Johnson has bounced around the league to a few teams, but he's still a huge target (6-feet, 6-inches) we monitor in crazy deep dynasty formats. The Bears are stacked at the wide receiver position, so don't expect much from Johnson if he's out there on the field (he only has one target and one catch over the last two seasons). |

Cowboys | Cooper Rush to start again Wed Nov 20, 11:02 AM
Dallas Cowboys QB Cooper Rush will start again in Week 12 but backup QB Trey Lance will have some packages, head coach Mike McCarthy said on Tuesday, Nov. 19.
| Footballguys view: The Cowboys are not going anywhere this season. They should just turn things over to Lance to see if there's anything there worth developing. Rush completed 32-of-55 passes for 354 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the Cowboys' 34-10, Week 11 loss to the Texans. However, McCarthy said he did regret not letting Lance play in the fourth quarter of that game. |

Cowboys | Jake Ferguson unlikely to play in Week 12 Wed Nov 20, 11:02 AM
Dallas Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (concussion) will be 'hard-pressed' to suit up for Week 12 against the Washington Commanders after sustaining a concussion in Week 11.
| Footballguys view: Luke Schoonmaker is the next man up for the Cowboys. In Week 11 on Monday night, he caught 6-of-10 targets for 56 yards. On a short week, Schoonmaker should do a decent impression of Ferguson's game. |

Jets | Aaron Rodgers not expected back with NYJ in 2025 Tue Nov 19, 02:49 PM
New York Jets QB Aaron Rodgers is unlikely to remain the team's starting quarterback heading into the 2025 season, according to ESPN.com's Rich Cimini. Per Cimini, the dismissal of general manager Joe Douglas ended whatever possibility existed of Rodgers returning.
| Footballguys view: "It's hard to imagine him even wanting to come back," Cimini wrote. SNY's Connor Hughes expressed a similar view, writing, "It's very clear now that this organization is going to find a new quarterback." It's reasonable to believe a new general manager and head coach would want to start out with their quarterback of choice. Of course, owner Woody Johnson could be a wildcard here. But if Rodgers moves on, we'll all spend a lot of time and energy discussing potential landing spots. |

Giants | NY Giants add Tim Boyle to practice squad Tue Nov 19, 02:30 PM
Free-agent QB Tim Boyle (Dolphins) was signed to the practice squad of the New York Giants on Tuesday, Nov. 19.
| Footballguys view: The Giants have benched Daniel Jones and will start Tommy DeVito for the rest of the season. Drew Lock is set to be the club's backup with Jones now the No. 3 QB. Adding Boyle could be insurance if DeVito or Lock becomes unavailable, as playing Jones could trigger his $23 million injury guarantee for 2025. Boyle appeared in two games for Miami earlier this season, completing 15-of-26 passes for 153 yards. He's appeared in 22 games with five starts since 2019, losing all five starts. |

Link to story Jets | Phil Savage takes over NY Jets' GM job Tue Nov 19, 01:32 PM
Former Cleveland Browns general manager Phil Savage was named as the interim general manager of the New York Jets on Tuesday, Nov. 19.
| Footballguys view: Savage replaces Joe Douglas, who was fired on Tuesday morning. Entering their bye week, the Jets own a 3-8 record and have lost six of their past seven games. On Oct. 8, the Jets parted ways with Robert Saleh and elevated defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich to interim coach. Before being promoted, Savage was in his sixth season with the Jets as the team's senior football advisor. He served as Browns' GM for four seasons from 2005-08. Following his time with Cleveland, he served as the Reese's Senior Bowl executive director (2012-18) and, likewise, served as the general manager of the Arizona Hotshots in the Alliance of American Football (2018-19). |

Link to story Steelers | Justin Fields' skills to be used Tue Nov 19, 12:38 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers QB Justin Fields had two rushes for 17 yards in Week 11, and offensive coordinator Arthur Smith said he wanted to use Fields more, but the team stalled out on third down too often.
| Footballguys view: Smith and the Steelers unveiled their "Fields package" against the Ravens. The first three plays of the Fields package were all runs, but many of the plays are not runs at all and Fields could be a threat to throw the football at some point. "I don't view Justin as a gadget guy. We have two starting quarterbacks," Smith said. "I still view Justin as a premium starter." Smith has done this in the past when he was with the Titans. Ryan Tannehill and Marcus Mariota split time, and a 'Mariota package' was born, allowing the Titans to attack defenses in different ways. It allowed the Titans to go from one of the worst red zone teams in the NFL to one of the best quickly. The Steelers had wanted to get to the package early against the Ravens, but too many drives were stalled. It seems like it will be a staple throughout the season as Smith weaves it into the fabric of the current offense. It will be interesting to see how it impacts Russell Wilson going forward. |

Jets | The Jets Fire GM Joe Douglas Tue Nov 19, 12:28 PM
The Jets have fired GM Joe Douglas, sources tell ESPN.
| Footballguys view: Last month, head coach Robert Saleh was sent packing. Douglas was considered unlikely to return for 2025, so it was a matter of when -- not if. Owner Woody Johnson chose now. At 3-8, with a team Johnson said is "one of the most talented" ever. It's a full overhaul and it's fair to wonder if the next regime will want to continue with quarterback Aaron Rodgers. |

Jets | PK Anders Carlson Signed To 53-Man Roster Tue Nov 19, 11:45 AM
After a successful outing against Indianapolis on Sunday, Anders Carlson has signed to New York's 53-man roster from the club's practice squad, the Jets announced on Tuesday.
| Footballguys view: Carlson hit field goals of 58 and 35 yards on Sunday and made all three extra points. A Packers sixth-round pick in 2023, Carlson has made 7-of-7 field goals and 6-of-7 extra points this season in three games -- two for the 49ers and one for the Jets. |
