Giants sign Josh Freeman

It’s been trending this way all week, but the Chargers will officially have their staring quarterback when they play the Eagles on Monday night.

Quarterback Justin Herbert is active and set to start despite undergoing surgery to repair his fractured left hand last Monday.

The story said during pregame warmups, Herbert has been sporting a balky glove with extra protection on his left hand. But he has also been simulating taking snaps from under center. Herbert was a limited participant in all three days of practice this week before being listed as questionable.

Bengals WR Tee Higgins experienced concussion-like symptoms last night and this morning and is back in protocol, coach Zac Taylor said.

Taylor said Higgins said he felt OK when he went through protocol yesterday and then reported the symptoms after the game, in another post from Baby. Higgins seems like he could have a tough time being ready for Week 15, now suffering a couple of concussions in the span of less than a month. Iosivas and Tinsley will run behind Ja'Marr Chase at WR and RB Brown should stay heavily involved in the passing game, as could TE Gesicki. In other news, the team waived WR Burton.

The NFL has flexed the Week 16 Sunday night game between the Bengals and Dolphins out of prime time. It will be replaced by the Patriots at Ravens game.

The Bengals loss to the Bills likely caused this switch. While the Ravens lost to the Steelers this past week, they should still be alive for a shot at the division at that point while the Patriots are looking for the top seed in the AFC.
