Dan Moore Jr. A Top-10 Offensive Tackle Through Week 2, Per PFF. As soon as Troy Fautanu was selected with the No. 20 pick in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft, many assumed the clock on Dan Moore Jr.’s time as a starter in Pittsburgh had started ticking. Yet here we are entering Week 3, and Moore remains the starter with no real prospects of […]

ABC6 Providence reported Pass was charged with assaulting a man over the age of 60 and causing bodily injury. Pass was selected by the Patriots just one round after legendary quarterback Tom Brady in the 2000 NFL Draft.

David Njoku's chances of facing the Giants; will Denzel Ward play more? Kevin Stefanski quick hits. Browns tight end David Njoku is unlikely to face the Giants, coach Kevin Stefanski said on Wednesday. If he sits, it will be his second straight absence with the sprained ankle suffered in the Cowboys game on Sept. 8. It's a huge loss for the Browns because Njoku led the Browns with 81 receptions in 2023 and six touchdown catches.

Bears' DJ Moore breaks silence on viral outburst vs. Texans. Sunday's loss to the Houston Texans left the Chicago Bears grappling with frustration, as struggles on offense once again took center stage. Among those feeling the pressure was Bears' top wide receiver DJ Moore, who found himself in the spotlight due to his visible emotions throughout the game. Moore finished with six receptions for 53 yards on 10 targets, but his performance on the field wasn't the only thing catching attention—his reactions on the sidelines were widely discussed on social media. Moore was seen several times walking off the field, visibly frustrated with the offensive issues that plagued the Bears all game long.

Robert Saleh hints at increased rep count for Jets' key free-agent addition. The New York Jets presumably signed wide receiver Mike Williams to become the No. 2 target in the passing game behind WR1 Garrett Wilson. As expected, the Jets eased Williams along during training camp with the 29-year-old recovering from the torn ACL he suffered in September 2023. Although he was available for the season opener, as promised, Williams was used sparingly in the Monday Night Football loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

Not only are the Colts 0-2, but their defense has been among the worst in the league. Many were concerned with Indianapolis' depleted secondary, especially after cornerback JuJu Brents' season-ending injury, but the Colts have only surrendered 356 total passing yards so far, good for the ninth-lowest in the NFL.

Texans running back Cam Akers preps for increased role with Joe Mixon, Dameon Pierce sidelined.

Now, Akers is preparing for an increased role as the primary running back Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings, his former team. Akers took the first-team snaps Wednesday with starter Joe Mixon sidelined due to an ankle injury that could prevent him from playing this week along with backup running back Dameon Pierce with a minor strained hamstring. Neither of the running backs' injuries are regarded as long-term, per league souces.

Patriots Must Exploit This Advantage When Facing Jets In Week 3. The New England Patriots biggest strength aligns with the New York Jets biggest weakness entering the Week 3 game on Thursday night. Jerod Mayo's team has heavily relied on the ground game in each of its two competitive contests. The Patriots ran for 170 yards against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 1 and 185 yards against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 2, the majority of which came in the second half. New England sits third in rushing attempts this season, and that's helped the Patriots rank fourth in rushing yards.
