Washington Redskins SS LaRon Landry (Achilles) and CB Carlos Rogers (hamstring) are not expected to play Sunday against Tennessee. Landry has been dealing with an Achilles strain for several weeks now, while Rogers injured the hamstring during last week’s blowout loss to Philadelphia. It’s hard to say the Redskins’ 31st ranked pass defense will be [...]

Washington Redskins QB Donovan McNabb’s five-year contract extension is reportedly contigent on the team picking up a $10 million bonus at the end of the 2010 season, according to ESPN.com. The $10 million bonus will then trigger the five-year, $78.5 million contract extension which would begin in 2011 and contain $40 million in guaranteed money. [...]

The Washington Redskins have signed QB Donovan McNabb to a five-year, $78 million extension through the 2015 season. Apparently McNabb and Coach Mike Shanahan will have to co-exist after all. McNabb gets $40 million guaranteed, despite being in the midst of his worst season in years at age 34. While McNabb figures to be an [...]

Washington Redskins RB Ryan Torain (hamstring) was active for Monday’s game against Philadelphia, but did not play. Keiland Williams started for the Redskins and played a majority of the snaps at running back. Wet conditions almost certainly had an impact on Torain’s playing status, although the game was out of hand so early it’s unclear [...]

Washington Redskins RB Clinton Portis (groin) is not expected to play Monday night against Philadelphia, according to Jason La Canfora of NFL Network. Ryan Torain will likely start and dominate touches for one more week. The fact that Portis was so close to returning bodes well for his Week 11 status. Washington’s backfield will likely [...]

New York Giants WR Steve Smith will likely miss several weeks with a partially torn pectoral muscle. Smith will not play this week, making Mario Manningham a very desirable fantasy option. The Giants will likely feature the running game a little more with Smith out. Ramses Barden will likely take over #3 receiver duties for [...]

New York Giants WR Steve Smith left practice on Thursday after straining his pectoral muscle. Offensive Coordinator Kevin Gilbride stated Smith could miss Sunday’s game against Dallas. The team is awaiting further test results. Mario Manningham would be an excellent play if Smith is forced to miss game action.

The Dallas Cowboys have fired Coach Wade Phillips and named Offensive Coordinator Jason Garrett the interim Head Coach. Phillips Cowboys’ career essentially ended when Tony Romo went down with a broken clavicle. The only question was whether or not he was going to finish out the season before being fired. Critics have been all over [...]

Washington Redskins RB Ryan Torain (hamstring) returned to a full practice on Monday. Torain left Washington’s last game before their Week 9 bye with a strained hamstring, so it looks like he’ll be good to go this week, barring a setback. Keiland Williams will continue to back up Torain, as Clinton Portis (groin) is still [...]

New York Giants LT David Diehl suffered a torn hamstring during Sunday’s win over Seattle and will be out indefinitely. Diehl will probably miss most, if not all of the regular season with the injury. Enigmatic T Shawn Andrews will likely take over at left tackle for the foreseeable future. Andrews is talented, but what [...]
