Buster Skrine fined $10,026 for facemask
Dolphins receiver Jakeem Grant accused Jets cornerback Buster Skrine of a “dirty hit.” The NFL called it unnecessary roughness and fined Skrine $10,026.

Tom Brady sees a Josh Gordon who is “eager to get in there and learn”
The trade that sent receiver Josh Gordon from the Browns to the Patriots is akin to the sending of a troubled child to reform school. (Yes, I actually used to get that threat from my parents, from time to time.) Gordon, if he’s ever going to reform in pro football, will do so in New [more]
Jadeveon Clowney fined $10,026 for sideline taunting penalty

Any question about cornerback Richard Sherman‘s health didn’t last long. The 49ers took the Pro Bowler off their injury report Friday, and Sherman will play Sunday.

Kyle Shanahan: We went real hard after Khalil Mack
49ers General Manager John Lynch admitted interest in Josh Gordon when the Browns were looking for a trade partner earlier this week.

Josh Gordon gets questionable tag for Patriots
At this time last week, wide receiver Josh Gordon was on track to play for the Browns against the Saints but a lot has changed since then.

Taylor Lewan on Andre Branch hit: I’ll get mine in time
Titans offensive tackle Taylor Lewan doesn’t remember much after Dolphins defensive end Andre Branch hit him during an interception return in the season opener.

Thursday night game was most-watched for NFL Network since 2015
The Thursday night game didn’t look like it was going to be worth watching for the first quarter and a half.

The Browns’ 21-17 victory over the Jets — Cleveland’s first since Christmas Eve 2016 — generated a [more]
Mike Vrabel to make Marcus Mariota decision in next 24 hours

Hue Jackson to announce his starting QB next Monday
Some people criticized Browns coach Hue Jackson for hedging last night, when asked if rookie Baker Mayfield was going to keep the starting quarterback job after they finally won a game. And while there’s plenty to criticize a 2-32-1 coach for, not demoting his offseason-long starter while he’s minutes removed from a concussion isn’t one [more]
Jay Ajayi and Darren Sproles out; Corey Clement listed as questionable
The Eagles will have quarterback Carson Wentz back in the lineup this weekend, but they are running low on players to share the backfield with him.

Peyton Manning may be rooting for Sam Darnold, in one specific way
Of all the records future Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning holds, the one record he wishes he didn’t hold came in 1998, when he became the rookie quarterback to throw more interceptions than any other rookie quarterback in NFL history.
