Linebacker Blake Cashman earns NFC Defensive Player of the Week honors for Week 7 after a dominant 16-10 win over the Indianapolis Colts. Cashman logged 12 tackles (eight solo), two sacks—a career high—three QB hits and four passes defended, marking the first player since 2005 to post two sacks and four passes defended in a game. The performance extended his NFL‑record streak to 17 straight games with at least seven tackles, the longest active streak and the best for a Viking since 1987. This award adds to five Viking weekly honors in the first seven weeks of the 2026 season.
The Indianapolis Colts have begun their fire sale, and several teams could soon follow ahead of the Nov. 10 NFL trade deadline.
The Indianapolis Colts’ fire sale is not going to end any time soon. With the NFL Trade Deadline on November 10, the Colts have two weeks to figure out who is going to remain on the roster.

The 49ers, fresh off acquiring DE DeForest Buckner, are already eyeing additional upgrades at defensive end and wide receiver. Trade chatter includes Maxx Crosby (if the Raiders budge), Khalil Mack, and Josh Sweat (despite his dip to two sacks in 2026). On the receiver side, the Niners consider Brian Thomas Jr. (Jaguars), Garrett Wilson (Giants), and Josh Downs (Colts), with the latter reportedly seeking a trade. Analysts give Thomas a 45% trade likelihood and Sweat a 40% chance. The piece weighs each prospect’s fit, contract status, and recent production, highlighting the team’s ongoing roster‑building push.
After a 27-21 overtime loss to the New York Giants, the Houston Texans slip to 2-5 and drop to No. 18 in NFL.com’s power rankings (down from 22) and No. 21 on ESPN. The defeat highlighted recurring blocking and tackling woes, costly penalties, and a porous secondary without safety Jalen Pitre, as Giants rookie QB J.J. McCarthy sparked a 194‑yard passing barrage to Malik Nabers and Malachi Fields. Giants RBs Cam Skattebo and former Texan Devin Singletary combined for 165 rushing yards and two touchdowns, sealing the win. Despite the setbacks, C.J. Stroud’s connection with Marvin Harrison Jr. and TE Foster Moreau’s red‑zone impact keep hope alive heading into the bye week.
The New Orleans Saints drop in the NFL power rankings after a 16‑9 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Paris on Oct. 25. NFL.com moves them to 23rd (‑3), Fox Sports to 25th (‑1), Bleacher Report also 25th (‑1), CBS Sports 27th (‑1) and Sports Illustrated 28th (‑3). Critics cite a nonexistent running game (only 18 net rushing yards), costly red‑zone errors by rookie QB Tyler Shough, injuries to Travis Etienne and Jordyn Tyson, and a defense that ranks near the bottom in yards and points allowed. With a tough schedule looming post‑bye, the Saints face pressure to reverse the slide.
The Patriots sit at last season’s loss total but still vie for an AFC playoff spot, hampered by early‑season injuries. With the NFL trade deadline looming on Nov. 10 at 4 p.m. ET, New England may pursue a roster overhaul, adding targets like A.J. Brown, Jaylen Reed, Corey Kiner or Walter Rouse, or offloading players as in 2025. Recent rumors include Colts interest in WR Josh Downs, a former teammate of QB Drake Maye, while All‑Pro guard Quenton Nelson heads to Seattle for a 2027 third‑round and 2028 fifth‑round pick. The tracker will update as deals develop.
The Arizona Cardinals are reportedly demanding a high Day‑2 draft pick for veteran pass rusher Josh Sweat, who requested a trade after head coach Jonathan Gannon was fired. Sweat, under contract through 2028, posted 12 sacks in 2025 but has only two through seven games this season. Teams like the Dallas Cowboys, Chicago Bears and San Francisco 49ers are linked to a potential deal. Trading him could net valuable draft capital, yet would leave Arizona short on pass‑rush production.
As the Indianapolis Colts hold a fire sale, at least one player is ready to go.
Another RB is more likely to be traded than Taylor or Barkley.
The Arizona Cardinals’ season is taking shape as many expected. A measly 2-5 start leaves Arizona sitting at the bottom of the NFC West.

The Washington Commanders have designated defensive tackle Jer’Zhan Newton to return from injured reserve, opening a 21‑day practice window before he must be added to the active roster. Newton, 24, has been sidelined since mid‑August with a pectoral injury that typically requires three to four months to heal. A former consensus All‑American at Illinois and a second‑round pick (No. 36, 2024), he posted 38 tackles, five sacks, a forced fumble and four TFLs in 17 games last season. The move could see him back on the field sooner than expected.
Entering the 2026 season, the New York Jets were looking for a significant bounce-back year from linebacker Jamien Sherwood.

The Packers’ 2026 season highlights a worrying decline for former first‑round pick Devonte Wyatt. After a $57 million, three‑year deal—including a $20 million signing bonus—Wyatt’s pressure rate has slumped from 9%+ early in his career to just 5.4% this year, and his run‑defense grades have languished at 52 or lower for four straight seasons. With teammate Karl Brooks stepping up and the Lions’ scheme neutralizing Packers pass rush, Wyatt logged zero pressures in two consecutive games. As the team faces potential cuts to Javon Hargrave and looks to retain Brooks, Green Bay hopes Wyatt can rebound before his contract is reconsidered after 2027.
Former Los Angeles Rams kicker Harrison Mevis impressed the Kansas City Chiefs in a recent workout, but the team ultimately chose veteran Justin Tucker for the place‑kicker role due to Tucker's experience. Mevis, who posted a 92% field‑goal rate in 2025 but struggled at 50% in 2026 before being released after a blocked overtime kick vs. Buffalo, remains a free agent. The Chiefs are looking to replace under‑performing Harrison Butker, who will try to keep his job against the Denver Broncos Sunday, while Tucker hopes to revive his career after off‑field issues.

Key defensive players include Khalil Mack and Cam Hart. The preview weighs the Rams’ offensive firepower against the Chargers’ low‑output game plan ahead of the October 28 matchup.
