New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray carried the ball eight times for 34 rushing yards and caught both targets for 23 receiving yards in a win over the Chargers. Murray has now exceeded 50 scrimmage yards in three of five games, along with two touchdowns. The veteran back has looked good this year and would easily be a top-10 option if something were to

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara exceeded 100 scrimmage yards for the fourth consecutive game in a 30-27 win over the Chargers. Kamara picked up 45 rushing yards on 11 carries and caught eight of 10 targets for 74 receiving yards, including a juggling, 28-yard reception late in the fourth quarter that led to a game-tying score. It was the first game without a

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees completed 33 of 47 passes for 325 yards with a touchdown throw and a rushing score along with one interception in a victory Monday night. It certainly wasn’t pretty at times, as Brees looked shaky and inaccurate throughout the night, though he was good when he needed to be. His 47 pass attempts were by far a season-high, as

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (back) experienced back spasms after his touchdown catch in the Monday night overtime loss to the Saints. Allen left the game in the first quarter and didn’t return to the contest, but he’ll have extra time to heal up with the team’s bye week recently being moved from Week 10 to Week 6. The 28-year-old was at least

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown (knee), who has missed the team’s last two games with a bone bruise in his knee, is expected to play on Tuesday night against the Bills.

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (groin) was diagnosed with an adductor strain, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Cook was injured on the first play of the opening drive of the second half in the Sunday night loss to the Seahawks.

Miami Dolphins starting defensive tackle Davon Godchaux (biceps) is facing a three-month recovery after suffering a biceps tear in the Week 5 win over the 49ers, according to a source. The Dolphins are hoping that he can return toward the end of the regular season or the playoffs if his rehab goes as planned. Godchaux is in the final year of his rookie deal and

The New England Patriots had no new positive COVID-19 tests from Monday’s round of testing, and they are planning to return to the practice field on Wednesday.

Both Patriots quarterback Cam Newton and cornerback Stephon Gilmore tested positive before the team’s Week 4 game, but neither player has shown any

The Tennessee Titans had zero new positive COVID-19 tests from Monday’s round of testing, meaning their game against the Buffalo Bills will go on as planned on Tuesday night. The Titans have had more than 20 player and personnel test positive for COVID-19 since their Week 3 win over the Viking, which forced the league to reschedule their Week 4 game against the Steelers. They

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry picked up his first touchdown of the year in Mondays loss against the New Orleans Saints. Henry only had 23 receiving yards on four receptions, but saw eight targets on the evening. Wide receiver Keenan Allen (back) left the game early and Henry along with wide receiver Mike Williams would stand to benefit the most if Allen misses

Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back Joshua Kelley struggled on Monday versus the New Orleans Saints. Many expected the rookie to the start with Austin Ekeler (hamstring) sidelined, but the Chargers elected to go with Justin Jackson. The workload in the backfield was pretty even and Kelley had 11 rushes compared to 15 for Jackson. Kelley did little with his opportunities and only picked up

On Monday against the New Orleans Saints with Los Angeles Chargers running backAustin Ekeler (hamstring) sidelined, it was expected that rookie running back Joshua Kelley would be the main beneficiary, with Justin Jackson also getting in the mix. Jackson rushed 15 times compared to 11 for Kelley and looked like the better running back in this contest. Jackson broke out for a 36-yard run in

Los Angeles Chargers rookie quarterback Justin Herbert put together another strong performance against the New Orleans Saints on Monday night. The rookie was only passed for 264 yards, but threw four touchdowns and was 20-for-34 on the evening. He also picked up eight yards on four rushes. Herbert was slowed down in the second half, but he has shown why the Chargers spent a first-round

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams returned from a hamstring injury and produced five catches for 109 yards and two touchdowns on eight targets in the Monday night overtime loss to the Saints. Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (back) exited the contest early with a back injury, and Williams would be the main beneficiary if Allen were to miss time. Keep in mind the

Updating a previous report, Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (back) has been ruled out for the rest of Mondays game against the New Orleans Saints. Allen came into the contest on fire and caught two balls for 29 yards and a touchdown before exiting in the first half. More should be known on the status of Allen before the night is over. The

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (back) is considered questionable to return to the Monday night game against the Saints due to a back injury. Allen was seen getting his back stretched on the sidelines. Before leaving, he was able to catch both of his targets for 29 yards and a touchdown, so at least he’ll give his fantasy managers something if he’s unable

Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank has admiration for quarterback Matt Ryan, but he didn’t fully commit to the former MVP signal-caller as the quarterback of the future as the franchise looks for a new head coach and general manager. The Falcons cut ties with head coach Dan Quinn and general manager Thomas Dimitroff on Sunday after an 0-5 start to the season. Ryan, 35, wants

The Jacksonville Jaguars released kicker Stephen Hauschka on Monday after he missed both field-goal attempts that he had in Sundays loss to Houston. The team brought in Jon Brown as their new kicker, marking the fifth different kicker that will start for the Jaguars this season. Having been a full-time kicker since 2011 with Seattle and Buffalo, Hauschka has seen his effectiveness slide over the

Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich confirmed Monday that Philip Rivers would remain the teams starting quarterback moving forward after a rocky performance Sunday against Cleveland. The question of Rivers removal exists primarily due to the presence of Jacoby Brissett as his backup, who had previously served as the organizations starter in 2017 and 19. While Rivers has delivered a 70.8 completion percentage through his

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (ankle) is working his way back from a high ankle sprain and is set to undergo a series of tests on the injury throughout the week in an attempt to gauge his health status. McCaffrey has been sidelined since Week 2, with Mike Davis taking over full-time duties in the backfield and excelling in his own right. McCaffrey would
