Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Justyn Ross was arrested Monday in Shawnee, Kansas, and is facing a felony charge of criminal damage of more than $25,000.

Ross was booked into the Johnson County jail. No bond was set. A court date for Tuesday was listed on the Johnson County sheriff's website.

The Chiefs said they are aware of the arrest but had no comment.

Ross joined the Chiefs last season as an undrafted free agent out of Clemson. He didn't play in 2022 because of injuries.

Ross has played in all of the Chiefs' seven games this season, recording three catches for 34 yards

So earlier today Marvin Jones announced he was stepping away from football to deal with personal issues.

Then the Lions just straight up cut him.

That’s pretty personal

From the X account of Jim Irsay:

QB Anthony Richardson’s surgery today in LA was a success! It was a long procedure and his shoulder injury has been repaired. No new surprises were found during surgery - they just repaired what was expected. Anthony is doing well and thanks everyone for the support. (There is presently no date for his return.)

^^^^this is a normal update....


The NFL admits and understands that they did not make the correct calls at end of Sunday’s Colts/Browns Game. I believe we need to institute Instant Replay for all calls, including Penalties, in the last two minutes of All Games.


^^^^ THIS IS WILD

We all know the NFL privately tells teams yeah, we screwed up sorry.

BUT

To make that info public is absolutely insane. Apparently there is also a rule that says you CAN NOT, basically, leak this info as it is a private NFL communication.

Interested to see if there is any penalty or punishment from the NFL.

From Tom Pellesaro:
The NFL communicates with teams on a weekly basis about various calls. Team officials are prohibited from commenting publicly on those discussions. Now, a team owner has publicly said the league admitted to officiating mistakes. Stay tuned …

Trade deadline could be really fun this year..hopefully.

Rumors flying that the Titans are open to trading Hopkins

I hear Titans also interested in moving Derrick Henry.

May be some other moves as well, by Arizona - hearing Murray could be dealt

Brock Purdy in concussion protocol. Started showing symptoms on flight back from Minnesota. So late in week, probably won’t play on Sunday.

SF - Brock Purdy in concussion protocol - this was due to the hit he took in the 4th qtr on the quarterback sneak they ran

Brock Purdy is now unlikely to play Sunday vs. the Bengals based on this trend: No NFL player placed into concussion protocol this season has played the same week. The last player to be in concussion protocol who played the same week was 2022, when Kenny Pickett had a concussion in week 6 and was cleared to play in week 7.
