>>Titans Fire Brian Callahan After 1-5 Start
(Nashville, TN) — The Tennessee Titans are firing head coach Brian Callahan. It comes after the Titans lost the Las Vegas Raiders and are now one-and-five on the season.

>>Lions’ Branch Suspended For One Game Following MNF Fight
(Undated) — The NFL is handing down a punishment to Detroit Lions safety Brian Branch following a fight he instigated following the team’s Monday Night Football matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs. The league is suspending Branch for one game without pay for unsportsmanlike conduct after he punched Kansas City wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster and caused a brief fight after the game concluded. NFL vice president of football operations Jon Runyan said in a letter to Branch that his conduct “reflected poorly on the NFL and has no place” in the game. NFL Network reports that the 23-year-old plans to appeal the suspension.
>>Eagles’ Za’Darius Smith Abruptly Retires

The 33-year-old signed a one-year, 4.25-million-dollar deal with the team following Week One. He totaled 10 total tackles and one-and-a-half sacks through five games.

Pittsburgh is coming off an easy win over Cleveland and leads the North at 4-and-1 heading into a Thursday night matchup at Cincy.
>>Report: Jets WR Wilson Avoids Serious Injury
(Florham Park, NJ) — The Jets appear to have dodged a major bullet. According to ESPN, wide receiver Garrett Wilson underwent an MRI on Monday and has avoided a serious knee injury.
