Many fans didn't want to see Daniels back at all this year, which is ridiculous. He's still a developing second-year pro, and as long as he's 100 percent healthy, it serves both him and Washington well to have him on the field. The only positive of shutting him down is that you could guarantee he wouldn't get injured again. He can also not get injured again while he's playing, and objective No. 1 for the next five weeks becomes ensuring that is the case.
To date, Thomas has played a total of 199 offensive snaps for the Cowboys and has started twice so far this season. He's played 176 of the snaps at left tackle and 23 at right tackle, committing only two penalties and surrendering just one QB sack according to Pro Football Focus. As an injury fill-in and spot starter, he's been invaluable.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Jacksonville Jaguars have lost starting left tackle Walker Little and starting receiver/punt returner Parker Washington to injuries against the Tennessee Titans. Little was evaluated for a concussion late in the first half while Washington suffered a hip injury on an incomplete pass from Trevor Lawrence.

The Buffalo Bills will be without pivotal pieces of the offense when the team plays the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday as both starting offensive tackles -- Dion Dawkins and Spencer Brown -- have been ruled out by coach Sean McDermott. They are dealing with injuries stemming from the team's Week 12 loss to the Houston Texans. Brown suffered a shoulder injury in the game and tried to play through it, but was unable to finish the game, sitting out the final drive.
I have no timetable on James Daniels," coach Mike McDaniel said Monday, as his team returned from the bye week that followed an overseas trip to Madrid, Spain. "I don't want to arbitrarily say he is or he isn't (playing this season), but I don't really know if he will return or not. So that's kind of where I'm at.
Guyton gets a full trench test against the Philly's defensive front this week, and the numbers paint an interesting picture. Individually, Guyton's been sturdier than the label suggests and tracking has him at a 93% pass block win rate, that's 18th among all NFL tackles, while Dallas as a unit sits 10th in team Pass Block Win Rate at 66%, and 13th in team Run Block Win Rate at 72%. That's the steady platform you want before you invite chaos to the party.
Philadelphia has committed nearly $200 million to its offense this season, the highest figure in the NFL and a full $20 million more than the next closest teams, the Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs. Yet despite this enormous financial commitment, the Eagles' offense remains stuck in neutral. They've won games largely on the back of a stingy, disciplined defense, while Jalen Hurts and the offense have done just enough to survive.
The Chargers didn't have to worry about another historic comeback. This time, the Jacksonville Jaguars left no room for doubt. Unable to handle Jacksonville's ground game or its pass rush, the Chargers offered little resistance in a 35-6 defeat under blue skies at EverBank Stadium. It was the worst loss of Jim Harbaugh's 1½ seasons with the Chargers, and the club's worst loss since a 63-21 thrashing by the Raiders on Dec. 14, 2023.
The former standout offensive tackle, who was an integral part of the Hogs in the 1980s, has advanced to the next round in the Seniors category for induction in Canton. He is one of 34 veterans to make it this far. The list will be pared to nine semi-finalists in about a month. Jacoby played 13 seasons for the team now called the Washington Commanders from 1981 to 1993.
The old question of "What happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object?" could not be better to describe the Dallas Cowboys week eight matchup versus the Denver Broncos. Through seven weeks, the Cowboys offense ranks second in EPA/play, ninth in success rate, third in dropback EPA, and fifth in rush EPA. In the same time frame, the Broncos defense ranks fourth in EPA/play, first in success rate, third in dropback EPA, and 17th in rush EPA.
