Jacksonville also gets a 2026 6th-round pick and Cleveland gets a 2026 7th in the deal, which gives two highly drafted corners a change of scenery.

With LAR/BAL going south due to the Ravens' injuries, would Fox consider a 3-2 Seahawks team that just lost a thrilling close game versus a 4-1 Jaguars team that just beat KC in similarly thrilling fashion?

Nope! Just default to the same ol' America's Cowboys Game Of The Week™!

Craig Woodson is on pace to be the first Patriots’ rookie defensive player to play 90-plus percent of snaps in his first year since Devin McCourty.

I talked to the New England legend today about what he likes about the rookie safety.

A matter of trust: Devin McCourty impressed by early gains of Patriots rookie Craig Woodson - The Boston Globe

McCourty likes what he's seen so far from Woodson, a rookie safety who has played a team-high 97.4 percent of the defensive snaps.

Practice-squad RB Terrell Jennings draws a large media crowd in the locker room, and shares that his locker mate, Antonio Gibson, told him that it’s his time now.

Of what Jennings hopes to bring to the team when at his best: “Physical, downhill runner.”

DE Keion White, who had a sleeve over his right elbow, worked to the side on conditioning during media-access portion of Patriots practice.

White didn’t finish Sunday’s game due to injury.

Meanwhile, DE K’Lavon Chaisson, who missed Sunday’s game (knee), returned to practice.

"To be honest, it might be a bigger test than last week, as far as having success and being able to replicate that process and do it all over again ... We have to go in there with the right mindset." -- WR Stefon Diggs, on facing the Saints after Sunday's victory over the Bills

Mike Vrabel seems to spare rookie DT Joshua Farmer for his 15-yard penalty vs. the Bills, noting that he coaches players to play to the whistle and it appeared RB James Cook was attempting to lateral … and no whistle was heard.

Mike Vrabel on practice-squad RB Terrell Jennings and the traits that helped him stick around: Great teammate, toughness, can play on special teams.

Jennings is a candidate for a game-day elevation this week with only 2 healthy RBs on the active roster.

Odds are you are 3-2 or 2-3. You probably need 8 wins to make the playoffs. Keep grinding the waiver wire and trade offers. DON’T GET COMPLACENT. 0-5 and 1-4 teams already gave up. 5-0 teams might get too comfortable. Take it 1 week at a time and try to win THIS week 🏈 #FantasyFootball
