Vikings TE Rhett Ellison (knee, out) missed practice al...

Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin’s knee injury looked bad on the field Monday night and head coach Dan Quinn confirmed the worst at a press conference on Tuesday.

McLaurin will miss the rest of the season with a torn patellar tendon. McLaurin will have surgery to repair the injury.

The Commanders have McLaurin under contract for two more seasons, but his future with the team could be impacted by the level of offseason changes that go on in Washington. If things don’t get better after a 1-4-1 start, those changes could be significant, the story went on to point out. With McLaurin out, Diggs should take over as the WR1 and the rookie Williams could see expanded snaps and targets as well.

On Sunday, Giants running back Najee Harris expressed concern about the distribution of touches in the team’s ground game. He’ll now get none at all.

Via Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the Giants are releasing Harris.

They haven't released him yet with the hope someone will trade for him and also take his salary of $1.215 million. Assuming no one does, Harris can sign with another team. Harris was critical of the how the team was handling their RB touches. The story said Harris was to take on a bigger role this past week but that didn't hold true. We reported Monday Skattebo only played six snaps, leaving the majority of the workload to Tracy and Singletary. It's anyone's guess as to who leads the backfield this week, making all three current RBs risky fantasy plays.

The Dolphins are signing K Zane Gonzalez after a workout today that I’m told also included 7-time Pro Bowler Justin Tucker.

Gonzalez will replace Patterson as the team gets back into action coming off their bye week.
