    Eagles' Sam Bradford: Has AC joint sprain and concussion

    Bradford (concussion) was diagnosed with an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder following Sunday's defeat to the Dolphins, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Bradford initially left the game due to a shoulder injury, and after X-rays came back negative, it was revealed that he was evaluated for and diagnosed with a concussion. Now that the nature of the shoulder concern has been confirmed, Bradford will be hard-pressed to fit in any practice this week. If he fails to suit up next Sunday against the Buccaneers, Mark Sanchez will take over QB duties for the Eagles.

    Buccaneers' Jameis Winston: Throws for 264, runs in winning score in Week 10

    Winston completed 22-of-39 passes for 264 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions in Sunday's 10-6 victory over the Cowboys. He also netted zero yards on two rushes but ran in a winning one-yard score.

    It was a rollercoaster final series for Winston, whose unforced airborne fumble at the one-inch line late in the fourth quarter intially appeared to seal a victory for the Cowboys. Instead, Winston was bailed out on a defensive holding call against Dallas and then ran in the winning score on a one-yard bootleg the very next play. The 2015 first overall pick also threw his first pair of interceptions since Week 4 against Carolina, but tallied his third-highest yardage total on the season as well. Winston continues to play considerably well considering the short-handedness of his receiving corps, and draws the savvy Eagles defense as his next challenge in Week 11.

    Eagles QB Sam Bradford injures shoulder, suffers concussion Week 10

    Eagles quarterback Sam Bradford was diagnosed with a shoulder injury and concussion during Sunday's loss to the Dolphins.

    Bradford was sacked late in the third quarter, fumbling in the process, and was visibly favoring his left, non-throwing shoulder as he walked off the field. While X-rays were returned negative, his subsequent evaluation for a concussion may be the issue that dominates his upcoming week of preparation. As long as he's sidelined, Mark Sanchez will serve as the Eagles' starting quarterback.

    Eagles' Sam Bradford: Ruled out Sunday with shoulder injury

    Bradford (shoulder) has been ruled out of Sunday's game versus the Dolphins, the Delaware News Journal reports.

    With five minutes remaining in the third quarter, Bradford was sacked and fumbled, during which he injured his left, non-throwing shoulder. X-rays were soon ordered up and returned negative, but the Eagles will hold the quarterback out for the remainder of the Week 10 contest. While his day concludes with 19-for-25 passing for 236 yards and one touchdown, Mark Sanchez will be under center during Bradford's absence.

    Eagles QB Sam Bradford injures left shoulder Sunday vs. Dolphins

    Eagles quarterback Sam Bradford left Sunday's game against the Dolphins due to a left shoulder injury. He was taken to the locker room for X-rays.

    During the third quarter, Bradford sustained the ailment on a sack and fumble. As he walked off the field, he was clearly favoring his left, non-throwing shoulder. The severity of the injury could be known in the near future, but Mark Sanchez will direct the Eagles' offense for the time being.

  • Vikings' Teddy Bridgewater: Active Sunday

    Bridgewater (concussion) is active for Sunday's contest at Oakland, Ben Goessling of ESPN.com reports.

    Emerging from the concussion protocol in short order, Bridgewater will extend his consecutive starts streak to 20 games, as he takes on a Raiders defense that has surrendered multiple touchdown passes in seven of eight games this season.

  • Vikings' Teddy Bridgewater: Will start Sunday

    Bridgewater (concussion) will start Sunday against the Raiders, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

    Bridgewater, who is officially listed as questionable, suffered the concussion just last Sunday, but he cleared through the league's concussion protocol rather quickly and will give it a go Sunday instead of Shaun Hill, who came on last week when Bridgewater was knocked out.

  • Vikings QB Teddy Bridgewater likely to play Sunday against Oakland

    Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater has cleared concussion protocol and is prepared to start against the Raiders on Sunday, Ben Goessling of ESPN.com reports.

    Goessling didn't outright declare Bridgewater the starter, however his source did suggest he was "all set" to go against the Raiders -- a report that seems to be in line with head coach Mike Zimmer's comments Friday, in which he admitted he had no doubt the Louisville alum would start Sunday. The official announcement regarding his playing status will likely come prior to kickoff, but for now it seems Bridgewater will be good to go against Oakland.

  • Lions' Matthew Stafford: Gets new offensive coordinator's backing

    New Lions offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter claims that Stafford has not struggled to absorb Detroit's scheme, the Detroit Free Press reports.

    Rumors that Stafford couldn't handle former offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi's scheme never really rang true as Stafford was being credited for playing some of the most disciplined football of his career in 2014 with Lombardi calling plays. Stafford is on pace to complete the highest percentage of passes in his career, but curiously also set a career high in turnovers while seeing his passing yards reduced for the fourth consecutive season. It seems more likely that Stafford, and the Lions' offense as a whole, is suffering from a rushing attack that is gaining 13 fewer yards than the next poorest running game in the league and pass protectors that are on pace to allow 44 sacks, both of which are unlikely to be hidden by a new playcaller.

  • Vikings QB Teddy Bridgewater listed as questionable for Week 10

    Bridgewater (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Oakland, but head coach Mike Zimmer said he has no doubt the second-year quarterback will start, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Although the Vikings don't seem too concerned, Bridgewater still hadn't passed through the NFL's concussion protocol as of early Friday afternoon. It sounds as if Bridgewater is no longer dealing with concussion symptoms, but he'll still need to be cleared by an independent neurologist. Assuming that happens, the young signal-caller should enjoy his Week 10 matchup with the dreadful Oakland secondary. If Bridgewater unexpectedly can't play, Shaun Hill will get the start.
