Pittsburgh, PA – In an unexpected turn of events this past week, first-year Pittsburgh linebacker Patrick Queen revealed that the Baltimore Ravens, who drafted him in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft, did not want him back this offseason. This statement sheds light on the ongoing changes in the NFL as teams reorganize their rosters.
Meanwhile, in Minnesota, rookie quarterback J.J. McCarthy recently had a procedure on his previously injured knee, as confirmed by head coach Kevin O’Connell. The Vikings are keeping an eye on his recovery as they prepare for the rest of the season.
On the Chicago Bears front, quarterback Caleb Williams spoke publicly for the first time since the team decided to part ways with offensive coordinator Shane Waldron. This change comes in light of the Bears’ struggles offensively this season, with discussions ongoing regarding necessary adjustments to regain momentum.
In other updates, the Indianapolis Colts have announced that second-year quarterback Anthony Richardson will be the starter for the remainder of the season, according to head coach Shane Steichen. This move indicates the team’s commitment to their young quarterback moving forward.
Additionally, as the league progresses into Week 11, the Washington Commanders are preparing to face their division rivals, the Philadelphia Eagles, tomorrow night. Analysts are keen to watch how their offense, now led by coordinator Kliff Kingsbury, performs amidst high expectations as they work to change perceptions regarding their ability to sustain success.
The Baltimore Ravens will also see the return of former Steelers leading receiver Diontae Johnson, who was traded in the offseason. His reunion with the AFC North rival will add an exciting twist to the matchup and could have significant implications for both teams.
As quarterback Kyler Murray and quarterback Lamar Jackson continue to shine and make headlines, teams like the Texans are remaining optimistic with coach DeMeco Ryans anticipating Nico Collins to practice this week ahead of their game against the Dallas Cowboys, where his presence could be crucial.
