Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. led the Cardinals with 44 receiving yards on Sunday, but he also had a brutal drop when a pass that should have gone for a big gain inexplicably fell out of his hands. After the game he acknowledged that he’s not playing well enough.

“Everybody’s got a job to do and I’m not doing it at a high enough level at the moment,” Harrison said, via ArizonaSports.com. “I think I know what I’m capable of and to go out there and not play to nowhere near my abilities is frustrating. It hurts the team and I need to get better.”

Through three games this season, Harrison has 10 catches for 142 yards and a touchdown, the story said. The story added those numbers project to 57 catches for 805 yards and six touchdowns for a 17-game season. Those aren’t bad numbers, but they’re not the kinds of numbers the Cardinals were expecting when they chose Harrison with the fourth overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft, the story added. Fantasy owners likely agree. Harrison and QB Kyler Murray reportedly developed more chemistry in the offseason. Harrison's numbers could have been much better had he hauled in the ball he dropped when he was wide open.

Giants kicker Graham Gano suffered a pre-game groin injury and is now questionable to kick tonight against the Chiefs.

This is similar to last season when Gano suffered an injury during the opening kickoff against the Commanders. After punter Jamie Gillian missed an extra point, the Giants went for two after their next two touchdowns and failed to convert either. New York would lose 21-18 after Austin Seibert kicked seven field goals for Washington. It will be interesting to see how this affects the Giants’ plans tonight.

Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh confirmed RB Najee Harris suffered an Achilles injury during the team’s win over the Broncos Sunday.

The way his leg and ankle buckled, you could tell the injury didn’t seem like it was going to be good. Harris was quickly ruled out with what the team called an ankle injury. Omarion Hampton took the lead role afterwards, rushing 19 times for 70 yards and a touchdown and added 59 yards on six catches.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told reporters that WR CeeDee Lamb’s ankle injury is “not as serious as it could have been.”

A sigh of relief for the Cowboys. Lamb left the game after his leg and ankle were rolled up on a rushing attempt. He would later return to the game before exiting again. Jones did also add “Let’s just keep our fingers crossed.” We’ll see if Lamb does have to miss time, adding insult to injury after the Cowboys gave the Bears their first win of the season. Lamb was held without a catch in the loss.

Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell confirmed Carson Wentz will get another start for the team next week when the team meets the Steelers in Dublin, Ireland.

This was expected after Wentz had a solid day against the Bengals, going 14/20 for 173 yards and two touchdowns in Minnesota’s 48-10 victory. J.J. McCarthy is out 2-4 weeks with a right high ankle sprain. With Wentz able to hold the fort in Week 3, he’ll lead the charge as the Vikings make their trek through Europe over the next two weeks, facing the Steelers in Dublin in Week 4 and then meeting the Browns in London in Week 5 before their Week 6 bye.

The Cowboys ruled out WR CeeDee Lamb with an ankle injury.

Lamb had left the game earlier in the day and come back before leaving again. Lamb was initially hurt on a rushing attempt early in the game and had his leg rolled up on. Lamb did not record a catch.

Cardinals RB James Conner was carted off the field following an ankle injury during the third quarter against the 49ers.

The fact that both teams came out onto the field in support of Conner as well as the broadcast not initially showing a replay (RedZone did later show a replay) may tell you all you need to know about the situation. Conner had nine rushes for 22 yards and 15 yards on three catches. Look for 2024 third-round pick Trey Benson, who was already getting more work, to step into the lead role.

The Chargers ruled out RB Najee Harris with what is being called an ankle injury.

Unfortunately, looking at the video, this may very well be an Achilles injury for Harris. Well wait for confirmation but the motions on video didn’t look good. With Harris out, the Browns will lean more on rookie Omarion Hampton, who has scored a touchdown today against the Broncos.

Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles called Mike Evans hamstring injury a “tweak” following Sunday’s win over the Jets.

Laine reports Evans will undergo an MRI to determine the extent of the injury. Evans missed three games in 2024 due to a hamstring injury. We should find out more details Monday. The Bucs are expected to get Chris Godwin back next week and Emeka Egbuka has gotten off to a strong start. It’s a battle of 3-0 teams next week as the Bucs host the Eagles.

Buccaneers WR Mike Evans was ruled out of Sunday’s game against the Jets with a hamstring injury.

Evans hobbled off the field and slowly made his way to the locker room in the second half. Shortly thereafter, he was ruled out. Evans had a decent day Sunday with a touchdown and 33 yards on four catches.
