Broncos’ WR Courtland Sutton is undergoing an MRI on the shoulder that he injured during practice today, per source. Sutton left practice after the injury, didn’t return and is now being examined to determined the severity of the injury.
Bucs’ HC Bruce Arians said WR Mike Evans is dealing with a soft tissue injury. Evans’ status for Sunday vs. New Orleans could come down to a game-day decision.
#Broncos pass-rusher Von Miller suffered a lower leg injury in practice today, per me and @MikeGarafolo. The fear is that he’s done for the season. But the MRI will tell all.
Bears placed K Eddy Pineiro on IR and it explains why K Cairo Santos was kept on Chicago’s practice squad - he’s expected to be the opening-day kicker in Detroit.
The #Patriots placed potential starting RB Damien Harris on injured reserve after finger surgery, and did the same for DL Beau Allen. Meanwhile they promoted LB Cassh Maluia and RB J.J. Taylor to the 53-man roster from the practice squad.
#Giants are set to release CB Deandre Baker, officially moving on from their ex-first rounder this week, source said. Not a surprise, they’d hinted at it... and recently gave away his number. Baker was on the Commissioner’s Exempt list after charges with 4 counts of armed robbery
RB Adrian Peterson told me this morning he’s on his way to Detroit to sign with the #Lions. “They’re giving me an opportunity to play. I know coach (Darell) Bevell from my days in Minnesota. Ultimately I feel comfortable going there and helping them to get better.” #NFCNorth.
Giants are releasing Grant Haley, per source. Started 12 games past two seasons. Writing was on wall after draft + Logan Ryan signing, and when he was shifted outside this summer, then eventually to safety. Haley should find a spot somewhere as a nickel CB. Played well as rookie.
The Chiefs have informed RB DeAndre Washington of his release, per source.
Darrel Williams and Darwin Thompson are now projected back-ups to Clyde Edwards-Helaire.
Sources: The #Texans and franchise QB Deshaun Watson have agreed to terms on a huge new extension worth $160M over 4 new years. Houston locks up its QB through 2025 – and Watson gets paid... with a chance to get paid again soon. 💰 💰 💰
