Woody Marks ruled out vs. Browns with concussion as Texans coughs up 17-0 lead
In Week 10, the Houston Texans squandered a 17-0 advantage and fell behind the Cleveland Browns in the second half, compounded by a concussion that sidelined running back Woody Marks. Marks, who entered the game as a questionable after a knee issue, was forced out after evaluation, leaving the Texans to rely on a next-man-up approach. The team also lost veteran back David Montgomery, ruled out with a lingering groin injury. With offense plagued by injuries, Houston may lean heavily on its passing attack to stay competitive against the Browns.
NBA Teams With Open Roster Spots
Half of the NBA’s 30 teams still have a vacancy on their 15‑man standard roster despite all 90 two‑way slots being filled. The open‑spot list includes the Celtics, Cavaliers, Nuggets, Rockets, Pacers, Heat, Timberwolves, Knicks, Magic, 76ers, Suns, Trail Blazers, Kings, Spurs and Raptors. Most are avoiding a 15th player to stay under the luxury tax or hard cap, with only Portland, Sacramento and San Antonio having enough breathing room to add a veteran without triggering the tax. Additionally, several clubs—like the Bulls, Warriors and Jazz—carry non‑guaranteed contracts that could be swapped out for better opportunities.

Hill, 34, returned to New York for a fourth stint after a bounce‑back season in 2024 (2.05 ERA in 44 innings) but struggled in 2026, posting a 4.60 ERA and a .293/.365/.543 slash line against right‑handers.

Why isn’t Shedeur Sanders starting today for Browns vs Texans in 2026 NFL Week 10?
Deshaun Watson regains the Cleveland Browns' starting quarterback role for Week 10 versus the Houston Texans after recovering from a concussion, leaving rookie Shedeur Sanders on the bench.

Raiders rumors: Las Vegas leaks Fernando Mendoza plan if Kirk Cousins hadn’t been traded to Vikings
The Las Vegas Raiders had already plotted a fast‑track to start No. 1 overall pick Fernando Mendoza at quarterback, planning to insert him on Nov. 29 against the Browns if the team lost to Seattle and Denver. After consecutive defeats left the Raiders 4‑5, they traded veteran Kirk Cousins to the Vikings for a 2027 third‑round pick, accelerating Mendoza’s debut. He will start Sunday versus the Seahawks, with full access to the playbook, after months of prep with QBs coach Mike Sullivan. The move highlights the Raiders’ shifting playoff hopes as they hand the reins to the reigning Heisman winner.
Raiders Were Just Weeks Away From Switching To Fernando Mendoza Before Trading Kirk Cousins
Ian Rapoport reports that the Las Vegas Raiders were poised to hand first‑round pick Fernando Mendoza the starting job within weeks, even if they kept Kirk Cousins. A loss to Seattle and Denver would have seen Mendoza start in Week 12 versus Cleveland, and the plan was already pointing to a post‑bye takeover. The 22‑year‑old, a Heisman‑winning former Indiana star drafted No. 1 in 2026, signed a four‑year, $57.271 million fully guaranteed deal. After a solid 2025 college season (3,535 yards, 41 TDs, 6 INTs) he’s logged a 6‑for‑8, 48‑yard performance in his sole Raiders appearance so far.

The injury report also notes several Browns and Texans players out or questionable.
Is Texans’ Will Anderson Jr. playing vs. Browns after missing practice with ankle injury?
The Houston Texans confirm that edge rusher Will Anderson Jr. will suit up against the Cleveland Browns on November 15, despite missing practice with an ankle injury.
