On Monday, Nov. 16, sports fans can tune in to a packed slate across the NFL, NBA, NHL, college basketball and international soccer. The NFL’s sole primetime game pits the Los Angeles Chargers against the Baltimore Ravens at 8:15 PM ET on ESPN. The NBA rolls out eight matchups, highlighted by the Warriors vs. Pelicans and Suns vs. Nuggets, with games streamed on Peacock, TNT and NBA League Pass. The NHL features the Rangers‑Canadiens and Canucks‑Mammoth contests. College basketball runs from 11 AM to late night with notable games like Jacksonville at Georgia and Grambling State at Kentucky, all on ESPN+ and BTN+. UEFA and CONCACAF Nations League matches also fill the soccer schedule.
Ladd McConkey is officially out for the Chargers' Week 10 Monday Night Football showdown against the Baltimore Ravens after being downgraded from questionable due to lingering back spasms. The 25‑year‑old wide receiver missed the previous game versus the Texans and hasn’t recorded a catch since Week 1, finishing the season with just 17 receptions for 286 yards and one touchdown. His absence marks a second straight missed contest, leaving the Chargers to adjust their offense heading into the Ravens matchup, with his next opportunity not coming until Week 11 against the New York Jets.
The New Orleans Saints bolstered their offense by re‑activating Travis Etienne Jr. for Week 10, but the team's biggest misstep at the 2026 trade deadline was ignoring an experienced center when Erik McCoy suffered a biceps injury. With a 3‑5 record and a fragile O‑line that has allowed 20 sacks in eight games, the Saints could have pursued Atlanta’s Ryan Neuzil—who later went to Baltimore—for a modest price. GM Mickey Loomis chose not to, leaving quarterback Tyler Shough (1,986 yards, 14 TDs) and the returning Etienne without needed protection, a decision that could cost the NFC South hopefuls.
The Patriots tumble to 5-5 after a 35-10 defeat by the Detroit Lions, dropping them to eighth in the AFC and out of the playoff picture for now. They remain second in the AFC East behind a dominant 7-1 Bills, but must overcome a huge gap to reclaim the division. In the conference, Cleveland (5-4) jumps ahead, leaving New England on the bubble alongside the Raiders and Ravens. With a bye week ahead, the Patriots’ path to the playoffs looks increasingly steep.
The Jacksonville Jaguars head to Nissan Stadium on Sunday, Nov. 15, 2026, for a Week 10 AFC South clash with the Tennessee Titans at 1:00 PM ET on FOX. Jacksonville, now 6‑2 after a 33‑10 win over Baltimore, aims to extend its winning streak; quarterback Trevor Lawrence’s offense ranks fourth in the league at 28.6 points per game, while the defense tops the NFL with a +9 turnover differential. The Titans, sitting at 1‑7 after a 43‑36 OT loss to Cincinnati, look to spark their season with QB Cam Ward’s 304‑yard outing and RB Tony Pollard’s recent five‑touchdown run. The game streams free on Fubo.
The Cleveland Browns enter Week 10 as the AFC’s provisional seventh seed after the Patriots fell to the Detroit Lions 35-10 in Germany, dropping New England to 5‑5 and a half‑game behind Cleveland. A win over the Houston Texans would move the Browns to 6‑4 and put them a full game ahead of the Patriots, while a loss could create a four‑way tie with the Raiders and Ravens for the final playoff spot. The Patriots’ hopes dim as QB Drake Maye exits with an ankle injury, and DE Aidan Hutchinson’s own injury adds drama to the conference race.
Baltimore fans get a break on Week 10 as the Ravens sit out Sunday, but the NFL slate is packed with playoff‑impact games. The top pick is the 1:00 p.m. clash between the 6‑2 Minnesota Vikings, led by returning QB Kirk Cousins, and the 6‑3 Green Bay Packers, who rely on Jordan Love’s passing despite a league‑worst rushing attack. Other 1 p.m. matchups include the Texans at the Browns and the Panthers at the Saints, both with tiebreaker implications. Plus, Jacoby Brissett will star for Baltimore in a primetime duel against the winless Chargers later in the week.
The Chargers head into Week 10 at Baltimore with a slew of injury concerns. Offensive guard Kayode Awosika, tight end David Njolm, defensive tackle Justin Eboigbe, wideout Ladd McConkey and linebacker Denzel Perryman are all listed as questionable, while rookie WR Brenen Thompson remains doubtful after missing three practices since a Week 2 injury. Additionally, offensive guard Branson Taylor, cornerback Isas Waxter and safety Kendall Williamson are ruled out for Monday night. With multiple key pieces on the stretch, the lineup will be a key storyline before the Ravens clash on Nov. 15.
The Los Angeles Chargers don't play on Sunday this week—so what should fans be watching for in anticipation of the MNF matchup against the Ravens?

The Los Angeles Chargers list wide receiver Ladd McConkey as questionable for Monday night’s primetime clash against the Baltimore Ravens due to a lingering back injury that sidelined him all week. McConkey, who missed the Texans game after back spasms in pre‑game warmups, would have been Justin Herbert’s top target, especially as the quarterback also nurses a hand injury. The Ravens lose safety Jaylinn Hawkins to a knee issue and have rookie RB Adam Randall as a questionable foot injury, opening a roster spot. The Chargers also report nine other injuries, including TE David Njoku and DT Justin Eboigbe, as they head into Week 10.
The Atlanta Falcons have promoted Corey Levin to starting center after trading Ryan Neuzil to the Ravens, and Levin is eager to build trust with quarterback Michael Penix Jr. ahead of Sunday’s matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs. Levin emphasizes his different physique and style, but vows to quickly gel with the offensive line, logging 60 practice snaps this week. The journeyman, now entering his eighth NFL start, has logged 14 offensive and 36 special‑teams snaps this season and brings a high‑energy, positive attitude to a division‑tight NFC South.
The Jets host the Bills at 1:00 p.m. ET on November 15 at MetLife Stadium, with CBS’s Kevin Harlan and Trent Green calling the game.

The Philadelphia Eagles’ 2026 trade‑deadline moves look impressive on paper—AJ Brown to New England, Cam Jurgens to Baltimore, and a Jordan Davis swap with Jacksonville that nets four extra draft picks—but the article argues the front office left valuable trade chips on the table. With a 2‑7 record, veteran linemen Dallas Goedert, Riq Woolen and Landon Dickerson sit on the roster despite interest from other teams, while younger players could develop amid a rebuilding focus. The piece questions why the Eagles didn’t offload these aging assets now, especially as the team’s chances to win a Wild Card are slim and the 2027 draft will shape their future.
The latest Steelers Depot roundup highlights three hot topics: the Bengals drop three players from their active roster, including wideout Andrei Iosivas, as they tighten the squad ahead of the upcoming game; Aaron Rodgers reunites with former teammate and Steelers coach after a surprise training‑camp meeting; and a former Baltimore Raven weighs in on the Tomlin saga, offering his take on the former Steelers head coach’s departure rumors. All items are tied to the November 14 date, giving Steelers fans quick insight into regional NFL moves without a full‑length article.
Jaguars defensive tackle Arik Armstead receives a $17,911 fine for a hip‑drop tackle on Ravens running back Derrick Henry during Week 9. The hit occurred early in the third quarter of the November 5 game in Baltimore. While the Ravens have only been fined six times this season—totaling $101,496—Armstead’s penalty adds to the league’s crackdown on dangerous tackles. Linebacker Roquan Smith accounts for nearly half of Baltimore’s fines.
The Chargers could get some reinforcements back from IR vs. the Baltimore Ravens on MNF if this week's final practice report is any indication.
The latest AFC roundup highlights several key moves and comments. Bills safety Amani Hooker says he’s “extremely confident” ahead of his debut with Buffalo. Jets quarterback Geno Smith, now 2‑7, stresses his daily commitment to improvement, earning praise from head coach Aaron Glenn and offensive coordinator Frank Reich as a detail‑oriented leader. Meanwhile, the Ravens add versatility after trading for former Falcons lineman Ryan Neuzil, with coach Jesse Minter and center Cam Jurgens touting his depth value. Ravens QB Jacoby Brissett admits it’s been a “crash course” as he fills in until starter Tyler Jackson returns later in the season.
The Los Angeles Chargers list wide receiver Ladd McConkey as questionable for Monday Night Football against the Baltimore Ravens due to a back injury. McConkey missed Thursday and Friday practices and was inactive after back spasms in the Week 9 win over the Houston Texans. He has 17 catches for 286 yards and one touchdown this season. If he’s sidelined, the Chargers could lean on Quentin Johnston, Tre Harris (who is now cleared) and KeAndre Lambert‑Smith for more targets. Final decisions will be made 90 minutes before kickoff.
The Los Angeles Rams promote cornerback Damarion Williams and long snapper Jake McQuaide to the active roster for Week 10. Williams, a 28‑year‑old former Ravens fourth‑round pick (2022), spent time with the Buccaneers and Seahawks before joining the Rams’ practice squad. He appeared in 14 games for Baltimore in 2022, tallying 24 tackles, a tackle for loss and two pass deflections. The move follows his collegiate success at Houston, where he earned honorable‑mention all‑conference honors and served as a two‑year team captain.
Jaguars defensive end Arik Armstead is fined $17,911 for an unnecessary roughness hip‑drop tackle on Ravens' Derrick Henry during Week 9’s 33‑10 Jacksonville win. The hit, which stopped Henry on the first offensive play of the third quarter, went unpenalized on the field but earned Armstead his second fine of the season—the first was $11,941 for a face‑mask penalty in Week 3 against New England. Armstead, a 2024 free‑agent signing from the 49ers, has recorded 14 tackles, 1.5 sacks and a pass breakup so far. The fine money supports retired‑player assistance and youth sports programs.
The Bengals withdrew from a trade for edge rusher Arnold Ebiketie after learning it could jeopardize their extra third‑round compensatory pick earned from losing Trey Hendrickson to the Ravens. Initially set to give the Eagles a sixth‑rounder, the deal was scrapped when OverTheCap.com highlighted the compensation conflict, prompting GM Duke Tobin to apologize on the team's behalf. Adding to the drama, the Seahawks signed former Bengals guard Cordell Volson to their practice squad; if he becomes a starter, he might generate an additional seventh‑round compensatory pick for Cincinnati, potentially salvaging the trade scenario.
The Baltimore Ravens announced that starting quarterback Lamar Jackson has undergone successful thumb surgery after his broken and dislocated thumb injury in Week 8 (Nov. 1). Coach Jesse Minter said recovery for this type of surgery typically ranges 6–10 weeks, and Jackson is now in rehab. While the team’s statement omitted surgery specifics, ESPN’s Jamison Hensley and The Athletic’s Jeff Zrebiec confirmed the procedure. The Ravens remain focused on fielding their best football in the season’s second half.
Ravens head coach Jesse Minter dodged questions about quarterback Lamar Jackson's thumb surgery, refusing to confirm the exact date even though ESPN reported it happened last week. Minter reiterated the team's 6‑10‑week recovery window, suggesting Jackson could return later this season. Jackson suffered the broken, dislocated thumb in the 36‑10 loss to Buffalo on Nov. 1 (Week 8). With Baltimore sitting 4‑5 and trailing the AFC North, his timeline remains uncertain as the Ravens prepare for a Sunday matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers.
