Quinn said last week went well for CB Marshon Lattimore. “A lot of top speed running. …hitting all the markers…very encouraged about the work he and the medical team have put in.”
Quinn said they want to see how he handles different speeds, change of directions, in practice.— John Keim (@john_keim) December 9, 2024
Quinn said it’s “trending up” for RT Andrew Wylie.

Quinn said they’re “planning on Zane [Gonzalez] being the kicker moving forward.”

Dan Quinn (correctly) only focused on New Orleans: “we don’t really try to look too far down the line and we’ll leave that to you and everybody outside just to make sure that for us, the only fight that matters is the onewe’re in. That’s what we do have control over.” pic.twitter.com/MA0Lu012Ht

Saints coach Darren Rizzi said Derek Carr will be a week to week situation and does not anticipate him landing on IR. He said Carr is also in the concussion protocol.
— Katherine Terrell (@Kat_Terrell) December 9, 2024
Darren Rizzi said they’ll have to make a decision today about whether Spencer Rattler or Jake Haener will start in the event that Derek Carr does not play. He that person will get the majority of the reps this week. They’ll meet on that this afternoon.
— Katherine Terrell (@Kat_Terrell) December 9, 2024
Rizzi said they’ll discuss the options and see where he’s at. Carr will get a second option. “He’s obviously sore today, it’s the day after the injury.” Said he’ll see where he’s at with the swelling. He called the injury “left hand/left wrist.”
— Katherine Terrell (@Kat_Terrell) December 9, 2024
Rizzi was asked if a quarterback can play with a broken hand. He said “It’s been done before.” and “It appears at the moment that it’s non-surgical. If it was surgical, we’d be having a different conversation, which is why this is going to remain day-to-day.”

With Tee Higgins set to hit the market this offseason, I asked Jay Gruden if he’d be a fit with the #Commanders opposite Terry McLaurin.
Sounds like he likes the idea. pic.twitter.com/20DBS2jk1z

I dont understand the rush to credit all former Skins assistants to Shanahan. Jay hired KOC. Period. And full story w McVays and Grudens is well documented. Shanny built a helluva staff, but not only one that brought (and lost) smart folks to Ashburn https://t.co/Mp7Dd6Yq26 https://t.co/YIoWyY1vy0

That blocked punt sequence was reminiscent of Thanksgiving Day back in 1993 when Leon Lett touched the football after a block on a game winning FG attempt by Miami. Miami got a second chance to win it and did, just like Cincinnati tonight.

Kinda rough to hear Joe Buck explain the Bengals signed a kicker specifically not to kick to Kavonte Turpin and then Aikman say, “I don’t know why anyone would kick to Turpin.”

#Panthers RB Jonathan Brooks re-tore his ACL and he’ll have season-ending surgery, coach Dave Canales told reporters. Just crushing for the promising back.

Cowboys HC Mike McCarthy didn’t have a definitive answer on the injury to the right knee of LB DeMarvion Overshown but said it is of a “serious nature.”
He left the Cowboys locker room on a cart and a brace around his knee.
