  • FA Linebacker #58

    Raiders MLB Kirk Morrison has 21 tackles, three interceptions, and six pass breakups through three regular season games.
    Captain Kirk has become an absolute stud in IDP leagues. Morrison worked on his cover skills during the offseason and it’s paying off in a major way.
  • CAR Tight End #0

    Ja’Tavion Sanders (neck) was seen practicing Thursday.
    Sanders has practiced in back-to-back days for the Panthers this week. Speaking Wednesday, head coach Dave Canales said the rookie was “trending toward” playing in Week 14 against the Eagles, so him shedding the non-contact jersey is a good step in that direction. Assuming he’s active this weekend, Sanders would be a low-end TE2 it what will be one of the toughest defensive matchups for the Panthers this season.
  • FA Offensive Coordinator
    UCLA fired associate head coach/offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy.
    Yahoo Sports’ Ross Dellenger was the first to report the story. The former Chiefs offensive coordinator has now gone one-and-done in back-to-back seasons with the Commanders (2023) and UCLA Bruins (2024). Things never clicked for Bieniemy at UCLA, as his offense ranked 126th among 134 FBS schools in points per game (18.4), and 117th in offensive yards per game (328.8). Once a popular name in NFL coaching cycles, it’s safe to say the shine has worn off Bieniemy over the last two years. He’ll likely draw interest from NFL clubs next offseason, but the two-time Super Bowl-winning offensive coordinator may not be in charge of offensive play-calling at his next landing spot.
  • ARI Cornerback #28
    Cardinals designated CB Elijah Jones (heel) for return.
    The Cardinals selected Jones in the third round of this year’s draft, but the rookie corner has yet to play a regular season game due to a heel injury he suffered in the preseason. The Cardinals now have 21 days to activate Jones or rule him out for the season. Jones will return to practice this week, and can be activated at any time.
  • DAL Guard #70
    Cowboys RG Zack Martin will undergo surgery on his ankle, ending his season.
    The seven-time All-Pro guard hasn’t played since suffering his ankle injury in Week 11 against the Texans. Now, after missing two straight games and with the Cowboys having little to play for, Martin has opted for season-ending surgery to correct the issue. Martin played on 638 offensive snaps this season and earned a PFF offensive grade of 65.6. The 34-year-old lineman is in the final year of his contract, and a return to Dallas could prove complicated with the Cowboys still needing to address a long-term contract with Micah Parsons.
  • TB Wide Receiver #13
    Mike Evans (hamstring/knee) was not spotted at Thursday’s practice.
    Evans has been dealing with a hamstring injury since Week 7 but has played through it the last two weeks. Evans has totaled 13 receptions for 186 yards and one touchdown in two games since returning from his injury, but this calf injury is something new that could force him back to the sidelines. Two straight DNPs is a bad sign for his Week 14 availability, but it’s possible the team is giving him a light workload to ensure he’s ready for gameday. We’ll wait to see where things go from here on Friday.
  • HOU Tight End #9
    Texans signed TE Brevin Jordan to a one-year contract extension.
    NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport was the first to report the deal. The fourth-year tight end was the subject of preseason hype heading into his contract year with the team, but a torn ACL suffered in Week 2 limited him to just two catches for seven yards on the year. Now under contract through next season, Jordan, who turns 25 next summer, will get a chance at another breakout season in 2025.
  • CIN Linebacker #55
    NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo reports Bengals LB Logan Wilson “had a surgical cleanup on his knee” and is expected to miss the rest of the season.
    Wilson was scratched with a knee injury in last week’s loss to the Steelers and has now been ruled out for the season. The veteran linebacker amassed 100-plus tackles for the fourth straight season, totaling 104 tackles, a forced fumble, two fumble recoveries, and two TFLs. Statistically speaking, 2024 was a down year for Wilson, but his 72.3 defensive grade, per PFF, was the second-highest grade of his career.
  • SEA Punter #4
    Seahawks punter Michael Dickson (back) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.
    Dickson was listed as limited on Wednesday’s practice report due to back spasms. Seahawks kicker Jason Myers took a few punts in practice and looks to double as the punter should Dickson miss Week 14. The Australian has been the Seahawks’ punter since entering the league in 2018 and is averaging 48.7 yards per punt this season after averaging a career-high 50.0 yards per punt last season. Dickson still has a few days to practice and get healthy to punt against the Cardinals.
  • LAR Wide Receiver #15
    Rams WR Demarcus Robinson (hand) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.
    Robinson is dealing with a hand injury he suffered in the Rams’ Week 13 win over the Saints. He finished the game with a pair of catches, including a 46-yard score. Head coach Sean McVay said Robinson is expected to be available for Week 14. He starts out the week limited, but is on track to play and will be a boom-or-bust play against the Bills.
  • JAX Quarterback #16
    NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) is expected to undergo season-ending surgery.
    Rapoport adds, “Lawrence will make a full recovery for 2025.” Though he was placed on injured reserve after suffering a devastating concussion in Week 13, the extended absence allows him to get a headstart on surgery in his non-throwing shoulder. Lawrence had topped 4,000 yards and 20 touchdowns in back-to-back seasons heading into 2024. One year away from the end of his rookie deal, the Jags pulled the trigger early and gave him a five-year, $275 million contract extension in the offseason, anticipating Lawrence to finally take the next step in his fourth season. Instead, the Jags got more of the same with a mixed bag of heroic throws and back-breaking mistakes. He struck up a connection with first-round rookie Brian Thomas Jr., hitting him on several long throws while posting some of the best efficiency metrics in the league on deep attempts. On the other hand, Lawrence couldn’t get much to work when looking at anyone else. He only managed 11 touchdowns to seven interceptions in 10 games, two of which he left early. Jacksonville will presumably fire Doug Pederson after the season, adding another excuse to the list of reasons Lawrence hasn’t broken out yet. If the Jaguars hire a rising offensive mind, Lawrence will have a shot at beating the “mid” allegations in 2025.
