Why isn’t Rashee Rice playing today for Chiefs vs Seahawks on SNF in 2026 NFL Week 7?

The Kansas City Chiefs will play Sunday Night Football without wideout Rashee Rice, who is sidelined by knee and hamstring injuries suffered against the Las Vegas Raiders on Oct. 4. Missing his second straight game after the bye week, Rice’s return date is uncertain. Coach Andy Reid leans on Xavier Worthy—who logged seven catches for 73 yards versus the Chargers—as the primary replacement, with Justin Watson and rookie Andrew Armstrong also in the mix. Tight end Travis Kelce remains a key target if his ankle holds up, leaving Mahomes to adjust his passing attack against Seattle.

3 takeaways from the 49ers loss to the Falcons: Too many self inflicted wounds

The 49ers’ first loss of the season comes after a 29-20 defeat to the Atlanta Falcons in Week 7. Despite outgaining Atlanta by more than 100 yards, San Francisco’s seven costly penalties—including an encroachment that gave the Falcons a field‑goal before halftime—and a string of self‑inflicted errors (holding, pass interference, offsides, a false start by Brandin Cooks) stalled crucial stops. Turnovers also hurt, with four giveaways—two fumbles and two interceptions—while the Falcons commit none. Special‑teams woes lingered as George Kittle fumbles and kicker Eddy Piniero misses the extra point, leaving the Niners unable to mount a comeback and slipping to 6‑1.

“Tight on Money”: Aaron Rodgers Blasts NFL Owners for Being Cheap After Demanding League-wide Change

Aaron Rodgers accuses NFL owners of being "tight on money" as he urges the league to fund a genuine international expansion beyond just overseas games. The Steelers quarterback calls for an "international week" with cultural events, community outreach, and local engagement, warning that the owners’ reluctance to spend undermines the NFL’s global growth goals. Rodgers ties his critique to the league’s push for a 17‑game season and the ongoing debate over an 18‑game schedule, noting mixed owner opinions and player‑safety concerns.

Colts doomed for fire sale after suffering third straight loss to Vikings

The Indianapolis Colts fall to the Minnesota Vikings 16-10 on Sunday, extending their losing streak to three games and dropping to 2-5. Daniel Jones throws for just 108 yards and six interceptions, while the offense sputters with two missed field goals by Spencer Shrader and a critical holding penalty that stalls a goal-to-go drive before halftime. Jonathan Taylor leads the team with 110 scrimmage yards and a 38-yard TD, but the Colts cannot overcome the Vikings’ league‑high two takeaways per game. Minnesota’s pass rush and Kyler Murray’s late TD seal the win, leaving Indianapolis with a -8 turnover margin – the worst in the NFL – and fueling speculation about a quarterback change.
