#Packers RB Josh Jacobs, who will have surgery later this week on his broken ring finger, could return as quickly as 2-3 weeks, sources say. Green Bay will decide Saturday if IR is necessary but it’s not guaranteed.

Jacobs is out vs the #Vikings before the bye. After that, he’s got a shot.

Falcons released K Nick Folk and signed K Jake Moody.

Dusty May faced a 32-point deficit before his first official NBA halftime speech.

But his Mavs have rebounded to go a surprising 7-4.

Quite a start exactly one year to the day that Dallas fired Nico Harrison.

These MFs botch so many potential assists for Acuff man smh

[Sam Block @theblockspot]

Darius Acuff Jr. This Season:
• 12 points
• 19 points
• 22 points
• 22 points
• 22 points
• 25 points
• 29 points
• 32 points
• 33 points
• 34 points
• 38 points

Sacramento Kings are 1-10.
But Darius Acuff Jr. is NOT the problem.

[Alex @Nocontextalex99]

1. Trade Keegan Murray, Domas, Malik Monk.
2. Release Zach Lavine
3. Fire Doug Christie
4. @Vivek Sells the team to a owner who'll keep the team here but also Doesn't meddle. (I WISH!!)
5. Keep rebuilding by the draft

That's my top 5 things that'll make the Sacramento Kings better within the next year or 2.

[Professor OAK 🇵🇸 @o_a_khan]

You know, I thought Doug Christie had Monk's rotation figured out. Monk has historically struggled at PG, and struggled mightily running backup PG earlier this season.

And then something interesting happened: Christie would get Monk into the game next to Acuff, letting him play SG for a few minutes, before giving Acuff a rest and letting Malik take over at PG. And it worked! We saw Monk have some really nice games. Not perfect but we saw flashes of the Monk we remembered. He even closed the Heat game at SG next to Acuff.

And then today... Doug undid all of that. Monk came in straight for Acuff at PG, wildly turned the ball over twice, and was never seen again. Just baffling.

And I'm not absolving Monk of responsibility. But Doug had something working, you need ballhandling creativity desperately, and he just threw it away. I don't get it.

After all the bullshit from suspensions, fights, driveway workouts, leaving to the Cowboys you name it, I still rarely ever speak bad on T.O solely because of this reason right here lol

[Tucker Kraft Enjoyer @KraftGOAT]

Going rumor out of Green Bay right now is that MLF ran up the score on the Pats and pulled starters early as a sign of disrespect to Vrabel 👀

Remember, Vrabel treated Shanahan and MLF horrifically when they worked for him to the point it neared mental abuse. Pats and Vrabel also flew the 28-3 banner before the game

MLF really might be moving different this year

[Matt George @MattGeorgeSAC]

This has been a very confusing night of Doug Christie rotations:
- Acuff plays more than his NBA-leading average minutes (40)
- Malik Monk just 2 minutes?
- Lineups featuring almost zero scoring.
- Sabonis, Murray & LaVine on the bench with less than 4 minutes to go in a single-digit game.

More details about how the Cousins trade went down today.

[MLFootball @MLFootball]

HEARTBREAKING: #Cardinals star WR Michael Wilson and his wife soccer star Sophia Wilson BOTH had their seasons come to an end on the same day.

Michael suffered a fractured neck after already playing through two broken ribs this season.

Brutal day for the Wilson family ❤️🙏

The Padres are signing righty Ryan Weiss to a one year major league deal with an option for 2028, sources tell ESPN. Weiss pitched last year for Houston. Had interest around the league and a chance to return to the KBO where he pitched in 2025 but got a deal done with the Pads.

A post-trade-deadline round up with @FieldYates, with the Jaguars taking a page from the Rams’ playbook and saying “F” them picks.

[Ed Werder @WerderEdNFL]

Source: There was an initial conversation between the Vikings and Raiders regarding interest in a potential trade for Kirk Cousins but contingent upon Minnesota first to seeing how Carson Wentz played MNF against the Bills. His disastrous performance resulted in the Vikings resuming the discussions and those becoming negotiations that result in deal that has Cousins returning to Minnesota.

[NFL on ESPN @ESPNNFL]

Good return on investment for the Raiders 🫡

[Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter]

In all, there were nine first- or second-round picks traded during this season, the most in a season since at least 1990.

[Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter]

Vikings have released WR Odell Beckham Jr.

[Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter]

Make it 18 in-season trades with the Falcons trading C Ryan Neuzil to the Ravens in exchange for Andrew Vorhees and a 2028 sixth-round pick.

It is the third straight year the league has witnessed 18 in season trades.
