Derek Carr Practicing Ahead Of Week 9

Monday, October 28, 2:56 PM

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr (oblique) will practice on Wednesday in preparation for the team's Week 9 matchup, per Katherine Terrell of ESPN. Additionally, head coach Dennis Allen is "optimistic" he'll play on Sunday when the team lines up against the Carolina Panthers on the road. It's fantastic news for New Orleans, which has been without their starting quarterback since the team's loss in Week 5 to the Kansas City Chiefs. The Saints are reeling after their sixth-straight defeat, and while it isn't yet confirmed, Carr's activation would be a massive boost to the offense's outlook. If he does return in Week 9, he'll get a juicy matchup against a tissue-paper-soft Panthers defense. Keep an eye on his status over the coming days.

Keon Coleman Enjoys Best Game Of His NFL Career

Sunday, October 27, 9:55 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman caught five passes for 70 yards and a touchdown in the team's 31-10 win over the Seattle Seahawks. His score came on a two-yard fade route on Buffalo's first drive. The rookie's five receptions are a career-high. This was the second straight week Coleman earned seven targets. The second-round pick appears to be coming into his own, whether it's by adapting to the NFL game or the arrival of Amari Cooper attracting defenses away. With back-to-back great stat lines, Coleman is moving from boom-or-bust bench piece into the weekly flex conversation.
