Russell Wilson Can Help Steelers’ Run Game, Says Tony Dungy. Russell Wilson won’t be carrying the ball on zone reads or QB sweeps the way Justin Fields has this season. But his big arm and downfield ability could create an even bigger boost to the Steelers’ run game. Appearing on Pro Football Talk Thursday, former head coach and NBC analyst Tony Dungy made the case.

They signed Cam Sutton to eventually take over the role once his eight-game suspension is served, but until then, undrafted rookie Beanie Bishop Jr. has had the job.

Colts vs. Titans in Week 6: What you need to know. The Colts face the Titans this weekend in a game that suddenly feels "must win" as questions about who's suiting up swirl. The big picture: The Colts (2-3) were without quarterback Anthony Richardson, running back Jonathan Taylor and center Ryan Kelly in Sunday's 37-34 loss to Jacksonville. Receiver Michael Pittman is also expected to miss multiple games because of a back injury. Healing up will be crucial for the Colts as the second half of the season starts with a barrage of first-place teams and Super Bowl picks.

Titans-Saints trade proposal from NFL analyst gives New Orleans much-needed OL help. The Tennessee Titans are currently on the road to nowhere in 2024 after a 1-3 start, and it's very possible the Titans will be sellers at the trade deadline if things keep going the way they're going. Knowing that, CBS Sports' Cody Benjamin believes offensive lineman Daniel Brunskill could be someone who gets moved by the Nov. 5 deadline, and he suggested the New Orleans Saints as a possible landing spot for the veteran. "If (the Saints) don't spend everything on a splashy new wideout, they'd be best-served bolstering Carr's front," Benjamin wrote. "Brunskill has quietly been a full-timer on the interior before, including for the 49ers."

Cleveland Browns (DEF - CLE)

Patriots' Alex Van Pelt 'Haunted' By Early-Season Mistakes. The Patriots have plenty of people to blame for their 1-4 start, but offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt has been the poster boy for outside criticism. Van Pelt hasn't had the strongest start to his tenure in New England, specifically when it comes to his decision-making. The Patriots' offensive system has actually been designed well, with the zone running scheme starting to make strides and play-action concepts making sense on paper, it's just that ever-important aspect of calling plays that has been bothersome. The Cleveland Browns only allowed him to call plays once in his four-year stint with the franchise, which made it somewhat surprising when the Patriots hired him to be the primary play-caller in an offense that needs near-perfection in that realm to be successful.

Jaguars' Devin Duvernay heads to IR with hamstring injury. Virtually nothing has gone right so far this season for the Jacksonville Jaguars, as they have crawled out to a 1-4 record through the first five games of the season. While they finally managed to pick up their first win of the season in Week 5 over the Indianapolis Colts, they saw one of their most explosive big-play threats in Devin Duvernay pick up an injury. Duvernay is an All-Pro caliber kick and punt returner who signed with the Jags this offseason. While he has only hauled in one pass that lost a yard, he's been their primary return man, averaging 20 yards per kick return and 11.7 yards per punt return.

"Basically any wideout except rookie Ja'Lynn Polk is probably on the table in New England," Benjamin wrote.

It won't be easy for him against a stout Texans run defense that ranks fifth in the NFL in DVOA, but it's clear that if the Patriots are to keep the pressure off of Drake Maye, they'll need to be able to run the ball consistently with Gibson.

Insider Explains Why Steelers Won't Play Roman Wilson. The Pittsburgh Steelers have yet to play rookie wide receiver Roman Wilson this season, and The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette's Gerry Dulac offered some insight on why that's been the case. Dulac, during his weekly Steelers chat, was asked why Wilson hasn't appeared on the field for the team this year after recovering from an ankle injury, to which he responded with a rather telling anecdote. "It's called 'he's a rookie and not sure what he's doing,'" Dulac wrote. Wilson, a third-round pick from the University of Michigan, sprained his ankle at the beginning of training camp and did not appear at all throughout the preseason, which hindered his development within the Steelers' system.

After the Chiefs were looking solid at the position going into the season, things have changed drastically. Both Rashee Raice and Marquise Brown are not expected back until at least the playoffs, and quite possibly longer. Unsurprisingly, the Chiefs have managed to get by just fine, probably because they have the best football player on the planet at quarterback.

FF Today's Take: The hamstring bites another. Collins was injured in Week 5 on a 67-yard TD catch but will now miss the next 4 games. The earliest he could return would be Week 10 against the Lions. The Texans don't have their bye until Week 14. Xavier Hutchinson finished out the game in Nico's role so he's worth a look if you need WR help. Perhaps more target will flow to Tank Dell in the coming weeks.Source:
