Left tackle Trent Williams didn’t get traded by Washington before Tuesday’s deadline, but there has been a change in his status.

According to multiple reports, Williams had ended his long holdout and reported to the team. Williams was at odds with the team over their handling of a growth on his head that was eventually removed and found to be benign. Williams is also thought to want a new contract and asked for a trade away from the team.

It’s safe to say that neither the Jets nor the Dolphins will win the AFC East. But on Sunday, when the Jets play the Dolphins, that may go from a 99.9 percent probability to a 100 percent certainty for the losing team.

That’s because if the Patriots win on Sunday, the Jets-Dolphins loser is mathematically eliminated from AFC East contention.

The Texans announced that Watt has been placed on injured reserve. He will miss the rest of the season, but is expected to be ready to go in time to work with the team ahead of the 2020 season.

Watt’s move to injured reserve left an opening on the team’s 53-man roster and they filled in by signing defensive back Briean Boddy-Calhoun.

Wonder how Flores said that (about winning) with a straight face. Must have been hard.

Not a good news at all for Houston...

Not at all. I wonder if they're second guessing their decision to move on from Clowney, even with Clowney's sack numbers being down.

First question is legit. Baker should have handled it better. "Were you happy w the result", I can see getting a lil heated but you gotta smile & roll w it. You're the ultimate troll. Not some cookie cutter QB who can't handle a little push-back from a vet reporter?

Also seemed very irate when he said "you dont play, you dont know". Again not very Baker-like but w/e.

Mayfield's a clown. Emotionally, he's about 18 months old.

Baker Mayfield: If I offend anybody, that’s too bad

Lotsa talking, not much winning.

Someone needs to explain P.R. to him. His first lesson needs to be learning the difference between being brutally honest and being a defensive ****head.
