Aaron Jones Won't Play Against Texans
Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (calf) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Houston Texans.

Washington Football Team tackle Geron Christian (knee) will miss his first game of the season on Sunday.

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase says that he isn't going to let someone else call the plays for the 0-6 Jets, saying that play-calling is "Step 10" for the team and that they are currently still on Step 2. It's not a surprise that Gase is being stubborn about this issue, as he's […]
