Moore came up with five sacks, 71 tackles, and an interception starting in place of an injured Jeff Ulbrich last season. The Niners seem to think Corey Smith would be a better option starting on the weak side.

The Eagles have played things very conservatively on the injury front in recent weeks but Jurgens’ status should be closely monitored. The talented run-blocker has earned a 70.1 PFF run-blocking grade this season, ranking 13th among NFL centers with at least 500 offensive snaps.

Baltimore also signed QB Devin Leary, WR Malik Cunningham, WR Dayton Wade, TE Zaire Mitchell-Paden, OL Corey Bullock, OL Darrian Dalcourt, DL C.J. Ravenell, DE Adedayo Odeleye, and LB William Kwenkeu to reserve/future deals. Miller was a late-season call-up from the Baltimore practice squad after Zay Flowers got hurt. He caught four passes for 28 yards in two playoff appearances.

Brown told reporters today he was feeling better. He has been taking Wednesdays off in recent weeks, so a limited designation, even for a walkthrough, does suggest he is trending in the right direction. Brown has totaled just 60 yards over his past three appearances, though the Eagles haven’t been forced to pass much during that stretch. If the Commanders can push Philly’s offense with some points of their own, Brown should return to form for DFS players on Sunday.

Covey is technically still on injured reserve but the Eagles activated his 21-day practice window earlier today. While he is not expected to meaningfully contribute as a wide receiver, his return to the primary punt returner role is certainly helpful.

Goedert didn’t appear limited by the ankle issue during Philly’s Divisional Round win, catching all four of his targets for 56 yards. The Eagles held a walkthrough on Wednesday, so Goedert’s status is just an estimation from the team. Thursday’s session will be more telling, but this is now a situation to monitor as we approach the Conference Championship Round. Grant Calcaterra would be in line for more snaps if Goedert can’t suit up, though we suspect this is just workload management ahead of a big game.

This is great news for the Eagles’ stud rookie perimeter cornerback, who exited the Divisional Round game against the Rams due to the injury. He is on track to play against the Commanders this weekend.

Earlier today, Buccaneers offensive coordinator Liam Coen reportedly removed himself from the Jaguars’ head coaching candidate pool by verbally accepting a pay raise from his current team. Reports have since confirmed that Coen and the Buccaneers have not yet put pen to paper on the new deal. Roughly four hours later, the Jaguars fired general manager Trent Baalke, potentially signaling their willingness to commit to Coen as the organization’s future shot-caller. Total control makes for an attractive offer. Time will tell how this pans out.

Bengals senior personnel executive Trey Brown is also getting a second interview. Per Pelissero, Commanders assistant GM Lance Newmark remains in the mix as well. Newmark has already been brought in for a second interview. With Aaron Glenn officially hired as the team’s next head coach, the Jets can finally hone in their general manager search. Mougey joined the Broncos as a scouting intern in 2012 and has quickly worked his way up the ranks. He was most recently promoted to assistant general manager in 2022.

Things played out for Golden and the Bengals as expected. Golden served as linebackers coach from 2020-2021 under former defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo before taking the defensive coordinator gig at Notre Dame in 2022. Golden will attempt to revitalize a Bengals defense possessing few truly talented starters.

Brinker is likely attempting to obfuscate their plans while ideally driving up the No. 1 overall pick’s trade value. The league knows that the Titans need to find a starting quarterback but muddying the waters as to whom they may select could scare a team in need of an elite pass rusher, or other non-quarterback, into trading up so as not to miss out on their preferred high-end prospect. Brinker also stated new general manager Mike Borgonzi will have the final say on what the Titans ultimately choose to do with the pick.
