Here is #CalebWilliams right (same) hamstring injury #Pac12Championship for USC . Hobbled but never left the game. Struggled to move and sacked 7 times. Current hamstring seems worse but MRI pending.

58 yd FG is good off cross bar If players routinely can dunk, why not put a guy back on long FGs to catch(block) ball with one hand? (I get you can't bat at ball)

The concern is for the person, not the game. Hope Hamlin is ok. Reaction seemed like a heart issue from the chest contusion. Other than a hospital, no better place to collapse 🙏🙏🙏

Nikola Jokic suffers concerning knee injury… By video, expecting hyperextension bone bruise. Will miss time (weeks) but hoping ACL spared and not season ending. More NBA injury analysis to come at

Jalen Hurts is OUT for Week 6 after a follow-up ultrasound showed movement in a superficial blood clot in his calf. Best case: precautionary one-week absence. Expected: multiple weeks. If anticoagulation is required, the absence could extend much longer, potentially including the season.

Caleb Williams. Hamstring strain. Carted off. Unfortunately that’s a hazard of wet weather. TBD to see how bad the tear is.

Jayden Daniels could return sooner than expected with an elbow brace, but he’ll likely need it for the rest of the season. Why surgery could still be considered, and why not operating after the first dislocation wasn’t a mistake.

Jayden Daniels, left elbow dislocated again. Will be ruled out today. Will likely miss time. Commanders could consider surgery so the ligament does not dislocate so easily.

Sam Darnold’s hip injury could be long-term if X-rays are positive for a fracture. It’s not a dislocation, as Darnold was able to limp off the field. The main concern is a posterior wall acetabular fracture. Worry meter is high.

Good news for Jaxson Dart: By video, I do not believe he suffered a season-ending ACL tear. The concern is an MCL sprain, an injury likely measured in weeks, not months. The MRI will determine the severity.

Puka Nacua is being called a game-time decision, but in 17 years in the NFL, there was never a true 50-50 call. Teams always have a lean. My lean: He doesn’t play. Fantasy managers need a contingency plan.

Patrick Mahomes underwent surgery tonight to repair his ACL. The timing and the surgeon who performed the surgery essentially confirms he also tore his LCL, which makes his recovery more difficult.

The fact that Tyreek Hill had surgery tonight and not last night is good news. He’ll need multiple procedures to reconstruct his knee. Out at least 1 year, maybe 2. Still career-threatening.

Jake Paul suffered a mandible fracture that is broken in two places and will require surgery, likely involving two or more plates, with the possibility of tooth loss. 6-month recovery, jaw potentially wired shut.

Jayden Daniels' elbow dislocation injury was grotesque, but because it is not his throwing elbow, there will not be a Tommy John UCL surgery. This injury is not career-threatening, and depending on the associated injuries, there is a slim chance it may not be season-ending.

Drake Maye injured his right throwing shoulder against the Broncos. How severe the injury is, and the exact diagnosis, remains to be determined. Heading into Super Bowl LX, I’m far more concerned about Maye’s shoulder than Sam Darnold’s oblique.
