 Reuben Foster following a domestic violence arrest http://www.49ersauthorizedshops.com/authentic-adrian-colbert-jersey , coach Kyle Shanahan said he and the team were unaware of a prior altercation in October between Foster and the same alleged victim.Foster was arrested Saturday night for an incident at the team hotel in Tampa, the latest in a string of legal issues involving the linebacker. The 49ers cut Foster on Sunday morning before their game against the Buccaneers.Reports emerged later Sunday that police had been called on Oct. 12 for another incident between Foster and the woman in Santa Clara.The 49ers claimed they had a zero-tolerance policy this season with Foster, who also was arrested on a domestic violence charge last spring involving the woman. The Associated Press generally does not identify victims of alleged domestic violence."Absolutely not," Shanahan said Monday when asked if he knew about the October incident. "The first time I heard about it, somebody told us about it when we landed (Sunday night) after it was written in the paper. Everyone in our building was the same on that."Shanahan spent the majority of his news conference Monday defending the team's decision to release Foster, the way the team handled Foster during his tenure 鈥?and the decision to draft the troubled player in the first place."There were things that we believed we could help him with," Shanahan said. "We worked on him since he's been here. ... We thought he would improve and we were gonna do everything we could to help him. And Reuben did improve in some things."But for that to come up ... and what happened Saturday with the same (person) at a team hotel, it's just hard to comprehend how you could put yourself in that situation again."There were red flags surrounding Foster leading up to the 2017 draft, including failing a drug test at the combine.Though domestic violence charges were dropped against him last spring Brock Coyle jersey , Foster served a two-game suspension to begin this season for his arrest on a gun charge and for misdemeanor marijuana possession.Shanahan said the 49ers had someone checking in on Foster often, doing everything the team could do short of having someone live with him."I do believe in his heart," the coach said. "I hope I'm not wrong on that. Shame on me if I am. But I also know he's shown that we couldn't trust his decision-making. ... There's not many things in this world more wrong than domestic violence and things like that."Shanahan said he twice tried calling Foster on Monday but only got his voicemail."Hopefully this is rock bottom for him," Shanahan said, "and he can fix himself in all those ways and still find a way to go have success in his life, or hopefully with another team someday."There weren't many football-related questions for Shanahan on Monday, but he did say Nick Mullens would remain San Francisco's starting quarterback this Sunday at Seattle despite a shaky effort in a 27-9 loss at Tampa Bay."I know I said Nick didn't play very well, but no one played well and I didn't coach well," Shanahan said. "So it was all of us. Nick did a good job in his first two games. He was not the reason that happened yesterday Authentic Richard Sherman jersey , so it would be unfair to (replace him)."NOTES: Strong safety Jaquiski Tartt is day-to-day with a stinger in the same shoulder that's given him problems recently. . Safety D.J. Reed is expected to miss Sunday's game with a foot strain and chest contusion. ... Receiver Pierre Garcon (knee) will be evaluated Wednesday. The past two seasons, we’ve regularly heard about how great an offensive mind Sean McVay is. And it’s a rightfully deserved compliment. He has done so much in such little time with the Los Angeles Rams, and while there is considerable talent on the field, McVay deserves a ton of credit.We’ve heard McVay and San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan compared heading into their respective jobs, and it’s been a more arduous task for Shanahan. He and John Lynch have engaged in a total rebuild, while McVay is proving just how atrocious Jeff Fisher was as a head coach.However, while the 49ers are in a rebuilding process, Shanahan has done some big things already on offense. He is on his third quarterback of the 2018 season, lost the running back he targeted in free agency Youth Weston Richburg jersey , and has a lot of question marks at wide receiver. In spite of all that, the 49ers’ offense is among the league leaders in explosive plays. They currently rank seventh with 46 such plays. Explosive plays cover rushes fo 15 or more yards and receptions of 20 or more yards.The 49ers do have talented players on offense, and they are all benefiting from Kyle Shanahan’s play-calling. My favorite stat related to the 49ers offense might be this one about George Kittle.Imagine what the 49ers will be able to do once Jerick McKinnon and Jimmy Garoppolo are healthy? Imagine what more upgrades at wide receiver could mean for this offense? Considering what Shanahan has done with C.J. Beathard and Nick Mullens, a fifth rounder in George Kittle, a UDFA in Matt Breida, and Raheem Mostert prior to his injury, I don’t see how you can’t be excited about the future of this offense.

 http://www.authenticssanfrancisco49ers.com/cheap-kyle-juszczyk-jersey , straight up picks for Week 6 NFL action We are entering the sixth week of the season, and we are starting to see some separation at the top of the standings. The Los Angeles Rams and Kansas City Chiefs are looking like the favorites in each conference, while our 49ers are a dumpster fire for the time being. San Francisco heads to Green Bay to close out the week on Monday Night Football, but the week gets going with an NFC East affair on Thursday Night Football with the New York Giants hosting the Philadelphia Eagles.It’s time once again for our pick ‘em and Survivor pool contest options. We have the weekly prediction contest this season, and you can make those picks here. We also have a traditional “Pick ‘Em” contest. If you still want to join, the group name is Niners Nation, the group ID is 45734, and the password is go49ers. You’re pretty far behind, but feel free to join.I took my first strike in my double-elimination Survivor pool. I got greedy http://www.authenticssanfrancisco49ers.com/cheap-earl-mitchell-jersey , and like Icarus I flew too close to the sun in choosing the 49ers to beat the Cardinals. I pondered the Carolina Panthers, but thought I was the smart one. Welp. I’m still alive, but it’s a disappointing strike.This week, I think I am going to play it relatively safe and take the Minnesota Vikings over the Arizona Cardinals. If I lose to the Cardinals in back-to-back weeks, it clearly just was not meant to be. I would take the Green Bay Packers over the 49ers, but I used the Packers two weeks ago when they thumped the Buffalo Bills.Tonight, Week 6 opens with the Giants hosting the Eagles. This is a tough call. The Giants stink, but the Eagles are proven to not be particularly good this season. The Eagles are a field goal favorite, according to sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark. Are the Giants emotionally spent after that last second loss to Carolina? I’m thinking I’ll just take the points and be done with it. This is a tough matchup http://www.authenticssanfrancisco49ers.com/cheap-joe-staley-jersey , so Giants +3 it is!Here are the rest of my straight-up picks. I was 11-4 last week, bringing my season record to 52-24-2. I’ll have my picks against the spread later this weekend.Eagles @ Giants: EaglesBuccaneers @ Falcons: FalconsSteelers @ Bengals: BengalsChargers @ Browns: ChargersSeahawks @ Raiders: SeahawksBears @ Dolphins: DolphinsCardinals @ Vikings: VikingsColts @ Jets: JetsPanthers @ Washington: WashingtonBills @ Texans: TexansRams @ Broncos: RamsJaguars @ Cowboys: CowboysRavens @ Titans: TitansChiefs @ Patriots: Patriots49ers @ Packers: PackersPicks against the spread for Week 5 NFL games The 2018 NFL season is officially in full swing, which means regular season betting is back. I’m back for another year of picks in the Westgate SuperContest. SB Nation’s partners over at Odds Shark are sponsoring my entry again. The contest requires selecting 5 games each week and picking them against the spread. I had a modest but still positive 3-2 week in Week 5. I’d always like better, but if you hit on 60 percent for the season, all is well. I now sit at 11-8-1 for the season. I did better overall, going 11-2-2 on my overall picks against the spread.The San Francisco 49ers are a 3.5 or four point favorite at most sportsbooks, with the SuperContest setting the line at four. I was tempted, but I don’t like this particular divisional matchup for picks purposes. I think the 49ers likely win either way, but I could see this coming down to a game-winning field goal. I’d love to see the 49ers thump Arizona and make a bit of a statement http://www.authenticssanfrancisco49ers.com/cheap-marquise-goodwin-jersey , but I can’t shake this feeling it’s a little closer than that.Here are my five SuperContest picks for Week 5.Jaguars (+3) over CHIEFSBILLS (+3.5) over TitansLIONS (+1) over PackersTEXANS (-3) over CowboysWashington (+6.5) over SAINTSI’m leaning heavily on underdogs this week. Week 3 saw the dogs barking, while Week 4 settled back into more familiar favorites. I think we might see some reversion back to the dogs.That Jaguars-Chiefs matchup could end up being the best game of the week. You get a dynamic Chiefs offense against a stout Jaguars defense. Blake Bortles gets a crack at an awful Chiefs offense, and I think that could keep this sufficiently close. This is Patrick Mahomes’ toughest challenge of the season, and I think the Jaguars defense contains him enough that we see Jacksonville win outright.The week ends with a fun Monday Night Football contest featuring an old friend and an old foe. We remember Alex Smith vs. Drew Brees from the 2012 NFC divisional round playoffs, and I think we see Smith come out ahead once again in this matchup. It will be a close one, and while New Orleans could hold on for the W, the Washington defense should give Brees a bit of trouble.I went 11-2-2 overall in Week 4. Here are all my picks for Week 5:PATRIOTS vs. Colts (+10.5): Colts — LOSSBROWNS vs. Ravens (-3): RavensCHIEFS vs. Jaguars (+3): JaguarsBILLS vs. Titans (-3.5): BillsPANTHERS vs. Giants (+7): GiantsJETS vs. Broncos (+1): JetsSTEELERS vs. Falcons (+3): SteelersLIONS vs. Packers (-1): LionsBENGALS vs. Dolphins (+6.5): DolphinsCHARGERS vs. Raiders (+4.5): Chargers49ERS vs. Cardinals (+4): 49ersEAGLES vs. Vikings (+3): VikingsSEAHAWKS vs. Rams (-7): SeahawksTEXANS vs. Cowboys (+3): TexansSAINTS vs. Washington (+6.5): Washington

Giants The 4 p.m. deadline for the New York Giants Color Rush Riley Dixon Jersey , and the rest of the NFL, to trim their rosters to 53 players has come and gone. But that doesn’t mean that the roster shuffling is over with and this 53-man roster is the one with which the Giants will take the field against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Well over 1,000 players have just lost their roster spots, and at least some of them could be improvements at certain spots for the Giants’ depth chart.Between the waiver wire and veteran free agents, here are 10 players who might interest the Giants. The Giants shouldn’t be looking for starters among the rest of the league’s castoffs, but they might find useful depth or players to develop who were forced off the roster due to the numbers game.Offensive lineJonathan Cooper (OG) - Cooper has been on five teams since being drafted seventh overall in 2013. He has never capitalized on the athleticism that got him drafted so highly, but teams keep giving him chances. He is coming off an injury but could be an upgrade to the Giants’ interior offensive line depth.Austin Howard (OT) - Howard was a solid right tackle for the Baltimore Ravens. However, the 31-year-old, 6-foot-7, 330-pound tackle seemed to regress badly after being signed by the Indianapolis Colts. However, the Giants wouldn’t need him to be a starter, just a better back-up option than Chad Wheeler.Dorian Johnson (OG) - Johnson was considered one of the top offensive line prospects to come out in 2017, but fell to the 4th round after being diagnosed with a liver condition. He struggled in his rookie training camp and was released by the Arizona Cardinals. Johnson was praised in college for his easy movement in pass protection and run blocking, as well as his power. He could be intriguing developmental depth.Linebacker Kevin Minter (ILB) - Minter was drafted by the Arizon Cardinals in the second round of the 2013 draft. He spent the first four years of his career with the Cardinals Color Rush Landon Collins Jersey , having his best years with new Giants defensive coordinator James Bettcher. Scooby Wright III (ILB) - Another familiar face for Bettcher, Wright was signed off the Cleveland Browns’ practice squad in December of 2016. Wright isn’t an athletic linebacker, but he is incredibly instinctive and plays with a great competitive fire. He was also insanely productive at Arizona, notching 164 tackles, 31.5 tackles for a loss, and 15 sacks in his 2014 season (only played three games in 2015).CornerbackTony Lippett - Well known to Giants’ DB coach Lou Anarumo, Lippett is a 6-2 former wide receiver. He is returning from a torn Achilles, but he has impressive measurables and upside.Quenton Meeks - A surprise cut from the Jacksonville Jaguars who signed him as an undrafted free agent this off-season, Meeks is a well put together corner at 6-1, 210 pounds with easy hips and quick feet. Meeks is also the son of a long-time NFL coach and has a reputation as a smart player with a strong work ethic in the film room.Cre’von LeBlanc - Another undersized slot corner, LeBlanc isn’t a great athlete, but he has quick feet, and excellent footwork to match receivers in short areas — not to mention an aggressive play style.KickerDan Bailey - Bailey might have been THE surprise cut of 2018. Bailey has been one of the best kickers in the NFL since his second season. Bailey had a down 2017 season, making just 75 percent of his field goal attempts (none blocked) Youth Sterling Shepard Jersey , but before that he routinely completed more than 90 percent of his attempts. The Giants could believe that the odds are better that he will improve than will Aldrick Rosas. Daeshon Hall (DL/EDGE) - Dave Gettleman drafted Hall for the Panthers in the third round of the 2017 draft. Hall has a powerful lower body, long (35-inch) arms, and the frame to either fill a role similar to Kareem Martin or Romeo Okwara as an outside linebacker on base downs who plays on the defensive line in nickel situations. He could add muscle and play the 5-technique. 2018 Waiver Wire OrderOrderTeamOrderTeamFun bonusesThese players might not be on the Giants’ radar, but they could be fun additions. Doran Grant - Drafted out of Ohio State in 2015, Grant is a former All Big 10 selection, Grant is short at 5-10, but is still a stout 200 pounds. He is experienced in press coverage and has the quickness to play in the slot. Braxton Miller (WR) - Miller is a converted quarterback, who is still learning the wide receiver craft, but he is an incredible athlete who is dangerous with the ball in his hand. The Giants might want to try and develop a talent capable of plays like this: Dimitri Flowers (H-back) - This is a personal desire. Flowers wasn’t one of the best players in the 2018 NFL Draft, but the fullback/h-back from Oklahoma was one of my favorite players to watch on tape. He was also a favorite target for Baker Mayfield. It isn’t often you find a player capable of lead blocking or catching a pass and picking up a chunk gain from the backfield or slot. The Giants want to use alignments to isolate defenders and force mismatches, and a player with Flowers’ skill set could be a weapon for them.Who would you like to see the Giants sign or claim off waivers? Will Hernandez played college football for UTEP, a Conference USA school that stumbled to an 0-12 record in 2017. Going from that bumbling mid-level college program to the NFL was a massive jump for the New York Giants’ 2018 second-round pick.Hernandez surrendered five sacks in his first seven games, but none since. His improvement has been a big part of why the Giants’ offensive line has been better the second half of the season.On Friday, offensive line coach Hal Hunter explained why he believes Hernandez has gotten better.“Will had come from a little bit smaller program (UTEP) so he probably hadn’t played against that same competition Alec Ogletree Jersey , so he had to jump a couple levels and get thrown in there right away. I think one thing that’s helped him is he’s been able to adjust to the speed of the game,” Hunter said. “The guys he’s playing against are better than any guys he’s played against, he’s playing against the best guys in the country, the best three techniques, so he’s locked up. I think he’s learned to adjust to the speed of the game.”Hunter said Hernandez has made fewer mistakes as the season has progressed.“Pro offenses are so much more complicated, we ask you to learn so much more and you get less rep time, and so I think that’s been an accomplishment,” Hunter said. “I’ve seen him grow over the year, over the season, being able to understand – his missed assignments have gone way (down). “The first and second half of the season is like night and day in terms of knowing what to do. You just see him reacting quicker and quicker and quicker, where early in the season sometimes a guy would make a move, maybe a stunt and he was a step behind that. Now he’s to the point where he’s anticipating the stunt.”Young defensive linemen developingThird-round pick B.J. Hill and fifth-round pick R.J. McIntosh are both expected to be important cogs in the Giants’ defensive front in 2019. Hill, with five sacks, has had an excellent rookie year. McIntosh has played limited snaps (only two last week) after missing the entire spring 4Dalvin Tomlinson Jersey , summer and more than half the season with an undisclosed illness.Defensive line coach Gary Emanuel spoke Friday about both players.On Hill ...“He continues to get better each week. He’s getting better and what you want to see is a young player just keep developing in certain areas of the game. He’s getting better against the run, he’s better with his technique,” Emanuel said. “The big thing with all young guys, you have to work on consistency, and them handling a heavy workload was good to see.”On McIntosh ...“He started late, so he’s just – it’s really his preseason almost. Kind of getting his feet under himself,” Emanuel said. “He missed training camp, he missed the preseason games, so that’s eight weeks of football he really missed, so he’s just now starting to wind into shape and getting back and getting healthy and things of that nature, so we’re anticipating him to continue to get better.”Around the Inter-GoogleLeonard: As Odell Beckham's season comes to a close it's worth asking if his Giants career is also 'finito' - NY Daily NewsPat Shurmur, you’ll recall, closed his most viral press conference of the season in Week 5 at Carolina with these famous words in an angry defense of his Giants and his handling of Odell Beckham Jr.’s controversial ESPN interview:The Giants' Super Bowl window is Saquon Barkley's rookie contract | SNY

Giants news Youth Customized New York Giants Jerseys , Here are some headlines to get your Monday started.Light day for Eli ManningQuarterback Eli Manning only took a few reps on Sunday. Davis Webb took the rest of the first-team reps and Kyle Lauletta moved up to take second-team reps.“That was two-fold. It gave him a little less and that allowed the other quarterbacks to get a little more,” said head coach Pat Shurmur.No. 2 QB job up for grabs?With his impressive showing Thursday did Kyle Lauletta crack open the door and give himself a chance to take the backup quarterback job away from Davis Webb? Only Shurmur knows for sure.“I think it is,” Lauletta said Sunday when asked if he thought that job was open. “Nobody’s said Davis is definitely the backup, or me. Doesn’t matter. I’m going to do everything I can and perform as best as I can and that decision will be left up to Coach. Of course I’ll be doing everything I can in order to put my best foot forward and try to get that spot.”James Bettcher away for mother’s funeralDefensive coordinator James Bettcher was not at practice Sunday and won’t be there on Monday. “James’ mother passed away last week, and so he’s back (home) and they’re having the services this weekend,” Shurmur said. “He’s back in Indiana and he will meet us in Detroit.”Solder not happy with play vs. BrownsLeft tackle Nate Solder felt like he could have www.giantsauthorizedshops.com , make that should have, played better in Thursday’s preseason opener vs. the Cleveland Browns.“You always have to have the mindset of needing to improve, I wasn’t happy with the way I kind of slowly oozed into that game. I thought that you have to come out firing, ready to go first snap. I wasn’t happy with my preparation, I think I need to do better preparing for the game coming up,” Solder said. “I think that with every year, you have to get yourself in the mindset of playing four quarters. Your condition, your footwork New York Giants Womens T-Shirt , your fundamentals, all those things need to continue to ratchet up as the (season) comes closer.”Collins: Scheme will create pass rushWhere will the Giants pass rush come from? Landon Collins says the point is that in James Bettcher’s defense offenses will never know.“Not many teams know where we’re coming from, we make everything look like man (coverage). So you never know if we’re in man or zone coverage. This past game I came free three times. So, I was like, ‘If we just make sure we hold them for two more seconds, it’s a sack.’ But those open and wide-open tackles with Coach Bettcher’s defense, I think we’re going to have a lot of sacks, DB and linebacker wise. I think it’s going to be very open.”Connor Barwin “a little sore”Veteran EDGE rusher Connor Barwin was a limited practice participant Sunday. “He’s just a little sore from the game New York Giants Hats ,” Shurmur said. “We’ll see how long he’s out.”Injuries complicate free safety competitionBoth Curtis Riley and Darian Thompson, who seem like the primary competitors for the free safety role, have missed time recently with injuries. That is making it more difficult for the Giants to figure out what to do at the position.“It makes the evaluation tougher when guys are getting themselves nicked up,” Shurmur said. “Ideally, they’re all healthy all the time and you’re giving the same amount of reps and see what they can do. I’m not so sure that’s the real world, though.” The trade winds started early. The NFL’s trade deadline is 4 p.m. ET on October 30, but the Dallas Cowboys made a move Mondsay for wide receiver help. First reported by ESPN’s Josina Anderson, the Cowboys traded for Oakland Raiders wide receiver Amari Cooper for the cost of a 2019 first-round pick.The costSo New York Giants Womens Hoodie , first: that’s a lot to give up for Amari Cooper. Cooper started his career with two-straight 1,000-yard seasons, but struggled last year and has yet to inspire in 2018. Charles Robinson of Yahoo reported the Cowboys were basically bidding against themselves by offering a pick that high — though he also reported Dallas was likely to use that pick on a wide receiver in the draft anyway. Cooper has a year and a half left on his contract — the rest of this season that won’t cost the Cowboys much and a fifth-year option in 2019 that will cost $13.9 million, which is currently the 13th-highest cap hit for a wide receiver in 2019 between DeAndre Hopkins and Julio Jones.The fitDallas needed an upgrade at wide receiver and Cooper can certainly be that. The question will be about his usage. Cooper has been a receiver that performs better out of the slot — last year he had the 14th biggest difference between Football Outsiders’ DVOA out of the slot and outside. Of course, Cole Beasley is currently Dallas’s slot receiver and even Allen Hurns has been better out of the slot in his career — so now the Cowboys have three receivers who play better inside than out.What is known is the Cowboys needed some help at outside. After taking the entire offseason talking about how there wasn’t a need for a true No. 1 receiver, they haven’t been able to figure out a useful rotation of receivers at all. There are not many quarterbacks who have been asked to do more with less than Dak Prescott. Per Next Gen Stats, only Josh Rosen has a lower expected completion percentage this season than Prescott. The falloutThe Cowboys do have an extra week to figure everything out — they’re on a bye in Week 8. Cooper’s Dallas debut will come in Week 9 on Monday Night Football against the Tennessee Titans.Dallas will make this move in an attempt to get back into a NFC East race that doesn’t have a dominant team at the front. Per Football Outsiders, the Cowboys had a 22.5 percent chance at a division title after Sunday Womens Customized New York Giants Jerseys , which was the second-best shot.This is a short-term move that does have some long-term consequences. The Cowboys will eventually have to make a decision on what to do with Cooper’s contract, whether they rework it before 2019 or not. Also, this lends itself to a decision around defensive end Demarcus Lawrence, who is already playing 2018 on the franchise tag. Cooper’s contract now takes up over $13 million that wasn’t on the books before and Dallas cannot simply replace Lawrence with a first-round pick if they let their top edge rusher walk in free agency.

 He ruled out RB Chris Thompson(ribs) and LT Trent Williams(thumb). He also listed WR Jamison Crowder(ankle) Womens Morgan Moses Jersey , CB Quinton Dunbar(shin), and Morgan Moses(knee) as questionable vs the Buccaneers on Sunday. Crowder returned to practice this week after missing the last four games with an ankle sprain. His return to the field will be big after the Redskins placed Paul Richardson Jr. on IR to have shoulder surgery.Morgan Moses sprained his MCL last week and has been wearing a big brace on his knee. Gruden said he did more today, and hopes he will be able to go on Sunday. If he can't play Authentic Paul Richardson Jersey , rookie Geron Christian Sr. will play right tackle.Quinton Dunbar has not practiced all week and looks like a longshot to play this week. Gruden said UDFA rookie CB Danny Johnson is ahead of 7th round rookie CB Greg Stroman right now and will likely get more playing time again this week.The Redskins will likely be starting Jonathan Cooper at left guard this week with Tony Bergstrom at right guard. Cooper was signed this week, along with two other OL, after the team placed Brandon Scherff(pec) and Shawn Lauvao(ACL) on IR.Injury updates:Quinton Dunbar:Jamison Crowder:Morgan Moses:Offensive line:Danny Johnson/Greg Stroman:Josh Norman:Geron Christian Sr.: Derrius Guice was one of the most popular Redskins rookies in the last few years. Washington picked him after he fell to the 2nd round and he immediately became a fan favorite. Throughout the offseason Guice interacted with fans Authentic Zach Brown Jersey , inviting them to movies, bowling alleys, and signing autographs wherever he went.He was set to be a big part of the Redskins offense during his rookie year. That plan was quickly changed when Guice tore his ACL during his first preseason game against the Patriots on August 9th. He was hopeful after the game Womens Derrius Guice Jersey , but knew his season was over before it started.He had ACL surgery with Dr. James Andrews shortly after, but there were setbacks and infections that slowed his recovery.Guice is now 5 months removed from surgery and posted a video this morning of a workout in the Redskins practice bubble to show his progress. He hopes to be back with the team when they start organized team activities during the offseason. Adrian Peterson was signed after Guice went down and was phenomenal for the Redskins in 2018. He has said multiple times that he would like to re-sign with the Redskins this year. He also said he invited Derrius Guice to workout with him in the offseason in Texas.A fully healthy Guice would be a big addition to the Redskins offense next season, especially if AP and Chris Thompson are back with him.

 Colts and the Houston Texans. The Texans won the AFC South with an 11-5 record and secured the 3rd seed in the conference. The Colts became the third team since the AFL-NFL merger in 1970 to make the postseason after a 1-5 start. They finished the season 10-6 and got the final playoff spot in AFC with the 6th seed.Who: Indianapolis Colts(10-6) vs Houston Texans(11-5)Date: Saturday Washington Redskins Hats , January 5, 2019Game Time: 4:35 pm ETLocation: NRG Stadium - Houston, TexasTV Channel: ABC/ESPN Announcers: Joe Tessitore, Jason Witten, Booger McFarland, and Lisa SaltersStreaming: Fubo | NFL.com GamePass (audio only during game)Odds: Texans -1.5, O/U 48.5Prediction: Texans 27 - Colts 23SB Nation blogs: Stampede Blue | Battle Red BlogNFL News twitter feed:Tweets from https://twitter.com/HunterLoganX/lists/nfl-rumors-and-reportersRedskins twitter feed:Tweets from https://twitter.com/HunterLoganX/lists/beat-writers The future is now in D.C. Unfortunately, the Washington Redskins need help both immediately and for the foreseeable future. What are some pressing needs for this team to remain competitive and where can help come from for the future?Quarterback - Yet again, Alex Smith finds himself as a placeholder for a younger, franchise quarterback. The only question is, how long will the team have to wait to get that player? Alex is most likely here for a minimum of two more seasons after the conclusion of 2018 Washington Redskins Hoodie , so that could mean the 2020 NFL draft will be the time the team looks to draft their future signal caller. This would allow Alex to mentor that new quarterback for a season before he is relieved of his duties. Any way you slice it, Alex is not the future of this team. Running Back - The injury to second round pick Derrius Guice handicapped the Skins before the season even started. Thankfully, Adrian Peterson has come in and picked up the slack. Unfortunately, AP is not the long-term answer at the position. Although Guice has never taken a regular season snap, the team believes he’s the long-term answer to the running back issues that have plagued the franchise for years. How effectively he recovers from knee surgery will be worth watching this spring. Wide Receiver - This is arguably the Redskins biggest concern on offense, and it’s been this way for quite some time. The inability to draft and develop a true number one target has plagued this team for decades. The Redskins have had some luck in the free agency market, but that approach can prove to be very costly and carries a ton of risk. Josh Doctson has the makings of a first round bust, and newly signed speedster Paul Richardson is injured yet again. Jamison Crowder is a pending free agent, and with his recent injuries, the coaches may look to move on. If the team doesn’t address this deficiency in the offseason, they will find it hard to compete in the NFC.Guard - Left guard has been a concern for the last five years. Unfortunately Customized Washington Redskins Jerseys , the front office has continued to turn to veteran Shawn Lauvao, despite a rash of injuries that have hampered his play. The time has come for the Redskins to invest a higher draft pick at the position to compliment young studs Brandon Scherff and Chase Roullier. The band-aid on the open wound has got to stop!EDGE - An impact edge rusher is a must in the NFL. The Redskins have been fortunate to have iron-man Ryan Kerrigan manning one side for years, but the situation opposite him has been a mixed bag. Preston Smith is set to become a free agent in the spring, and the team may be better off going to the draft, yet again, in search of his replacement. We do have Ryan Anderson, but he is best used in a reserve role moving forward due to his limited impact as a pass rusher. Linebacker - I have said linebacker is a concern on this team since London Fletcher retired. I like and respect the play of Mason Foster, but he’s a limited athlete, and struggles in coverage. Zach Brown is a tremendous athlete, who can play sideline-to-sideline, but the 29 year old is often replaced in sub-packages for better coverage options. It would be great if the team could draft a young www.washingtonredskinsteamonline.com , three-down linebacker who can become the leader of the defense. It would be even better if the defense would switch to a 4-3 base. If this move was made, it’s possible Shaun Dion-Hamilton could slide into the MIKE, with Josh Harvey-Clemons as the WILL and Brown as our SAM. Cornerback - Josh Norman is one of the highest paid corners in the NFL, but his recent play on the field has not come close to matching his exorbitant salary. It’s time for the Redskins to draft his eventual replacement, and the 2019 NFL Draft should hold a few interesting prospects. Quinton Dunbar has preformed nicely opposite Norman, but questions still remain about nickle corner. This team has more holes than fans may have thought heading into the season. The recent rash of injuries has magnified these deficiencies more than most want to admit. This begs the question - where should the Redskins turn for help?The most logical answer for immediate help is the 2019 NFL Draft. The Redskins will most likely hold four picks in the top 100, and with any luck, all four could be relied on heavily in 2019...and beyond. I’m going to assume for a moment that we win the NFC East this year with a 9-7 record, but are bounced in the first round of the playoffs. This should put us picking somewhere around 22nd.2019 NFL Draft:Round 1:Montez SweatEDGEMiss St.6’6” 250Round 2:Paris CampbellWROhio St.6’1” 208Round 3:Iman MarshallCBUSC6’0” 200Round 3:Chris LindstromOGBC6’3” 310Where has help already come from?Make no mistake, the 2018 NFL Draft was very solid for the Redskins. We have seen first round pick Daron Payne be a major force along the defensive line. Combine his emergence with the presence of second year stud Jonathan Allen and third year pro Matt Ioannidis (who is having the most productive year of the trio), and you have a great young core to build around. Don’t forget about rookie Time Settle too!I’ve already mentioned Guice Washington Redskins T-Shirt , and although his injury was devastating for the team, we can almost look at 2019 as his rookie year. If his impact in our offense is anything like the brief glimpse we got of him in the preseason, we should be set at the position for years to come. Geron Christian has looked poor in limited action this season, but we should expect massive growth from him this offseason. Will he become a competent swing tackle - only time will tell. The other question is the recent addition of guard Jonathan Cooper. The former first round pick played well for the Cowboys last season, but was not re-signed after he was injured in the teams last game of 2017. Cooper has talent, and he’s only 28, so if he can put together a nice showing over the next eight games, he could factor into the team’s plans next season and beyond. Arguably the biggest acquisition happened during the season at the trade deadline when the Redskins acquired Pro Bowl free safety HaHa Clinton-Dix from the Packers in exchange for a fourth round pick. A true free safety has long been a need for this team, and with Clinton-Dix manning the back end, that need could finally come to an end. The Skins should lock him up to a contract extension before free agency hits. NFL Outlet

Will Marcus Allen finally make his debut, or will the newly-added Brian Allen’s special teams experience give him the advantage? Game StatusDoubtful:S Morgan Burnett (Groin)WR Darrius Heyward-Bey (ankle)LB Vince Williams Here are the possibilities to end up inactive for Week 5:Definitely:Once again nobody has been ruled out, but a “doubtful” designation has been the same thing for the Steelers in 2018.Most Likely:QB Mason Rudolph- Josh Dobbs could sprain an ankle walking into the stadium, but I doubt it. S Morgan Burnett- I sound like a broken record: his weekly progress was in the wrong direction. Burnett will be out again. LB Vince Williams- he didn’t practice all week. There isn’t much hope that he will dress Sunday. WR Darrius Heyward-Bey- it’s the same story as Vince. Hey-Bey was out all week http://www.steelerscheapauthenticstore.com/ramon-foster-jersey-cheap , so playing this weekend isn’t likely to happen.DT L.T. Walton- The defensive line is healthy again this week, so Walton one again ends up being the guy to sit this one out.OT Zach Banner- he needs two linemen to be hurt in order to dress, and this week there are none. Possibly:OT Matt Feiler- last week the Steelers did dress an eighth lineman because their inactive list was already pretty full. It’s pretty full this week as well, but depth in other areas and special teams play may factor in more.S Marcus Allen- it’s very difficult to determine if the Steelers are interested in dressing this Allen. Because he hasn’t played at all, it’s hard to say if there’s any special teams value or positional depth he brings. Nat Burhe went on the IR this week and was replaced on the roster with a corner http://www.steelerscheapauthenticstore.com/alejandro-villanueva-jersey-cheap , so being a safety could help his cause.CB Brian Allen- he just moved from the practice squad to the main roster and has special teams experience from last season. It’s strange that he could not be on the 53, but once promoted jump ahead of others that are still waiting for a helmet.WR Justin Hunter- it’s not beyond the realm of possibility for the Steelers to go into the game with only four WR’s, especially with Ryan Switzer emerging as more than just a return man. Even though he brings nothing to special teams, Hunter will probably dress for depth and may even get a handful of snaps on offense.Unlikely:OT Marcus Gilbert- he did miss one practice this week with his injured hamstring, but didn’t end up with a designated game status. Unless something unexpected arises Cheap Chukwuma Okorafor Jersey , Gilbert should be good to go.Projected Inactive List:Mason RudolphMorgan BurnettVince Williams Darrius Heyward-Bey L.T. WaltonZach Banner Marcus Allen I thought Marcus Allen was ready to get a helmet last week. For the Steelers chose to give it to Matt Feiler and his zero snaps for the game, it’s quite obvious that they don’t feel ready to use him even on special teams. Therefore, I think Brian Allen gets the helmet ahead of Marcus to help replace the special teams void left by Darius Heyward-Bey. Unless one of the doubtful players is somehow ready on Sunday, the Steelers carry the extra lineman in Feiler.Feel free to list your projected inactives in the comments below. NFL Outlet

 As per NFL rules Youth Le'Veon Bell Jersey , the Pittsburgh Steelers can only dress 46 players on game day and at least 90 minutes before the start of any match up, they must officially declare a list of seven inactive players. Any player carrying an injury significant enough to have been ruled out of the game on Friday is always guaranteed to be included, while the rest of the names are generally players buried on the depth chart. In Week 1 of the 2018 season, the Steelers’ first list of the year contains a mixture of both.Tight end Vance McDonald was the only player ruled out on the final practice report of the week due to injury and he will be joined on the sidelines by a number of players who figure to regulars on the inactive list this season, assuming the rest of the squad remains healthy.As the third quarterback on the roster, Mason Rudolph is a certainty to be sitting out each week, as is Marcus Allen as the sixth safety. With seven active offensive lineman the standard procedure for Pittsburgh on game day, Zach Banner and Matt Feiler can expect to find themselves inactive most Sundays as well. L.T. Walton is no stranger to sitting on the sidelines during a game and his inclusion on the list should be commonplace this season too. As part of a packed position group, Coty Sensabaugh is another unsurprising inactive name in Week 1.The practical realities of life in the NFL means injuries will happen and most of these names will eventually get their chance to suit up when a teammate gets hurt or they move up the depth chart. Until that happens, they will have to make do with just watching the game like the rest of us, albeit with a much better viewing position.Week 1 inactives for the Browns: If you’re anything like me, you’re 1,000 percent over the ceaseless onslaught of acidic (and largely redundant) Antonio Brown narratives, which have violently pervaded the innermost reaches of our broader consciousness and metastasized into, like, pure vitriol and contempt. The abruptness with which Antonio Brown went from occasionally ill-tempered, but generally amiable superstar to most hated athlete in the city is stunning, and at this point the most expedient recourse may be a clean split. But I don’t wanna talk about any of that because a) Brown can’t be moved until March http://www.authenticspittsburghsteelers.com/cheap-jesse-james-jersey , so any discourse regarding Brown from now until then will be thoroughly rooted in conjecture and b) Antonio Brown is my favorite Steeler ever, and I want him to come back. In the meantime, I’d like to discuss some other things I want, starting with a rangy, explosive, amorphous middle-of-the-formation defender with a skill set that’s multifaceted but mostly analogous to the one possessed by a box safety or modern inside linebacker. Functionally, what I’m seeking is a Ryan Shazier proxy. I came to this realization sometime during the third quarter of the Steelers’ come-from-ahead loss to the Chargers back in Week 13—a loss that was heavily abetted by defensive coordinator Keith Butler’s unwavering commitment to a doomed game plan that involved deploying L.J. Fort in coverage against Keenan Allen, a near-consensus top-five receiver. In another universe, L.J Fort, thanks to his uncommon blend of size and athleticism, is a lockdown defender, one just as capable of flattening running backs as he is negating the impact of even the league’s most prolific vertical receiving threats. Three years ago, L.J. Fort was this unheralded, 23-year-old, diamond-in-the-rough linebacker with a high ceiling and a starter’s pedigree; today, in our current universe, L.J. Fort is, at best http://www.authenticspittsburghsteelers.com/cheap-stephon-tuitt-jersey , a core special teams contributor. Also, he’s somehow 29 now. “L.J. Fort” is more of a concept—a suggestion, rather, of what the modern insider linebacker should look like—than he is a tangible entity. Anyway, getting back on track, the Chargers scorched Pittsburgh’s defense and Allen feasted omnivorously on a rich diet of curl routes, out routes, and go routes. Presumably, Butler made the decision to put Fort on Allen because using middle linebackers to cover wide receivers—particularly larger receivers like Allen—is not a novel concept. However! Unlike, say, the Bears, the Panthers, or the Seahawks, the Steelers do not have apt personnel to do this effectively. (Of course, the Steelers knew this before the 2018 season even started, which makes the fact that they did only the tiniest quantum imaginable—namely, scooping Vince Williams clone Jon Bostic off the Colts’ trash heap for the hilariously low price of $2 million per season—to fill the gaping aperture left behind by Shazier inexcusable. It took the Steelers 11 games to finally come to the obvious conclusion that Bostic is a wholly redundant commodity, which is in itself a damning indictment of the collective aptitude of Pittsburgh’s defensive brain trust.) Williams is a nice inside linebacker Youth Antonio Brown Jersey , easily the best one on the Steelers, but he’s in possession of a skill set that’s not particularly diverse; he’s a solid-enough tackler and he can defend the run, but that’s basically it. Bostic, likewise, which is probably why he’ll be cut this offseason. Fort is scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent, but the Steelers’ linebacking ranks are so unbelievably scant that they honestly probably have little choice but to sign him back. Also, Tyler Matakevich is still here, I guess, but he sucks. That’s pretty much the whole squad! The Steelers absolutely have to improve this room during the offseason. This is the part of the blog where I’d normally launch into a thing about drafting a stud inside linebacker or splurging for one in free agency, but a cursory overview of upcoming unrestricted free agents or the top-rated collegiate prospects yields come grim results. As it stands, LSU’s Devin White is the only inside linebacker prospect generating any significant buzz (he’s a near-consensus top-10 prospect, so unless the Steelers would liquidate some standing assets to move up, it isn’t likely they’d be in a position to draft him, anyway), and most of the elite upcoming free agents—including C.J. Mosley and Kwon Alexander—will probably wind up re-signing with their current teams. It shouldn’t surprise you to hear that, hey, lots and lots of teams are interested in employing nigh-positionless field generals, and teams that find these kinds of players rarely allow them to hit the open market. Deone Bucannon Black James Conner Jersey , most recently of the Cardinals, checks all the boxes for multidimensionality and playmaking ability, but he’s been victimized by injuries and schematic changes over the past couple of seasons. Most likely, he’ll be a free agent in March. I think the Steelers ought to do their homework on him. He’s only 26, he’s demonstrated that he’s a capable and versatile NFL defender (in his second season, Bucannon played safety and linebacker, registering 109 tackles, three sacks, and four forced turnovers), and, most importantly, he could come reasonably cheap. The Steelers defense has pressing needs across the board—the defensive line is top-heavy, but devoid of depth, the secondary is a leaking diaper, and you can never have enough pass rushers—but I think adding playmakers who can force turnovers and play numerous positions is a great place to start.
