The MRI for Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield confirmed an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder but showed no additional damage, sources told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler on Monday. Mayfield's status for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals remains uncertain but there are no long-term injury concerns. Mayfield suffered his injury in the Buccaneers' 34-7 loss to the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night.

So we can agree that those mostly dull and frequently grim years while the Patriots crossed the rickety bridge to get from Tom Brady to Drake Maye were all worth it and then some, right? That probably goes without saying around here, but in an attempt at some humility, Patriots fans must remind themselves that there are at a minimum 25, and probably as many as 31, fan bases in the NFL that don't believe the Patriots suffered nearly enough after two decades of dominance.

"I could give you a dissertation on what I think about the whole quarterback position," Kupp said. "In short, I do think the plugs get pulled on guys a little early."
