News

Jalen Hurts rushed for his 15th touchdown of the season, which is a new NFL single-season record for a quarterback. Hurts now has 41 rushing touchdowns in his 4-year career.

The Denver Broncos, facing a roster decision following the expiration of Kareem Jackson’s 4-game suspension, have decided to waive Jackson, with the intention of re-signing him to the practice squad. Given that there are only two weeks remaining in the regular season, there’s a good chance that Jackson will be claimed by a contender.

Jaylen Waddle is dealing with a high ankle sprain, according to head coach Mike McDaniel. Waddle’s availability for the last two weeks of the regular season is in doubt.
