>>Report: Colts Expect Alec Pierce To Miss Several Weeks
(Indianapolis, IN) — The Colts are going to be without one of their top playmakers for a while. According to NFL Network, wide receiver Alec Pierce is expected to miss several weeks after aggravating a left heel injury during Indianapolis’ recent loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Pierce will attempt to rehab the injury instead of having surgery, with the hope of a midseason return. Indy is signing veteran free agent Darius Slayton to help fill the void.
>>Report: Eagles’ Dallas Goedert Out With Knee Sprain
(Philadelphia, PA) — The Eagles are dealing with a major injury blow to their offense. ESPN reports Dallas Goedert will miss a few weeks with a sprained MCL he suffered during Sunday’s win over the Titans. He caught 60 passes last season and scored 11 touchdowns. Philly re-united with Zach Ertz in a following move. The veteran played for Philly from 2013-to-21.
>>Falcons Starting Michael Penix On TNF
(Atlanta, GA) — The Falcons are finally getting some relief at the quarterback position. The team announced that Michael Penix Jr. will get the start in Green Bay against the Packers on Thursday Night Football. The eighth-overall pick in the 2024 draft is fully recovered from knee surgery which cut his season short last year. Atlanta is 0-and-2 after starting third-stringer Cooper Rush in both games.

Head coach Dan Quinn told the media on Monday that Jayden Daniels is meeting with specialists to determine the severity of his elbow injury.
