Titans coach Mike Vrabel said Marcus Mariota suffered a stinger Week 11 against the Colts.
The coach added Mariota is not in the concussion protocol, and he is hopeful the quarterback will be able to play Monday night against the Texans. It is good news Mariota did not re-injure his troublesome elbow, but it is concerning he is dealing with another nerve injury. Blaine Gabbert will get the start if Mariota cannot return. If that happens, the Texans DST will be the top play on the board.
just when u thought u had the lions backfield figured out
Coach Matt Patricia said the Lions are "very confident" in Zach Zenner.
Kerryon Johnson (knee) is in danger of missing multiple weeks, so the Lions are looking to replace his 12-18 touches. The Lions, of course, have one-dimensional running backs Theo Riddick and LeGarrette Blount, but they combined for one yard on eight carries last week, so Zenner may be involved for Thursday's matchup against the Bears, who have only allowed 3.6 yards per carry this season.
That’s funny. On Twitter I just saw that this could be a multiple week injury for TrubsNFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Mitchell Trubisky (shoulder) is expected to return in Week 13.
Rapoport described the issue as a "one-week injury" and claimed Trubisky likely would have been able to play if Chicago's game would have been on Sunday. Chase Daniel will get the nod against the Lions with Trubisky sidelined.
not so fast may have anotherThis has gotta be one of the most boring games in recent memory. Its not ugly and sloppy, but still hard to watch. The tryptophan is winning this battle, easily
alex collins with a foot injury..................
GUS EDwards may be a big play this week
yep, but stay tuned on collins, no word if hes playing or not but DNP todayOh nice. He just jumped into RB2 territory. Especially with Jackson playing.
FWIW he had Profootball focus #1 RB grade last week, and was the most elusive RB last week.I've got a hard time buying a dude who couldn't ever eclipse 750 yds in college. And if they run Lamar another 27 times, they might kill the poor kid. Volume based value, for sure. But wouldn't expect a whole lot.
