Kirk Cousins News
Saturday, August 8, 9:30 AM
Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Kirk Cousins and defensive end Maxx Crosby will both be held out of Saturday's practice after violating team rules during Friday's altercation, according to Adam Schefter. Head coach Klint Kubiak made the decision after the two got into it during team drills. Crosby made contact with Cousins on multiple plays before the veteran quarterback shoved him and grabbed his jersey, prompting teammates to step in and separate them. No punches were reported. Cousins enters the preseason as Las Vegas' starting quarterback after throwing for 1,721 yards, 10 touchdowns, and five interceptions across 10 games with Atlanta last season. Kubiak has already identified Cousins as the starter, with first overall pick Fernando Mendoza and Aidan O'Connell working behind him. Saturday's absence gives both younger quarterbacks some additional reps while Cousins serves the one-practice discipline alongside Crosby.

Josh Allen News
Monday, August 10, 4:47 PM
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen showed his growing chemistry with new wide receiver DJ Moore during Saturday night's practice at Highmark Stadium, according to BuffaloBills.com. In 11-on-11 team drills, Allen launched a deep ball to Moore down the middle of the field, and Moore hauled it in for a 50-yard gain. Toward the end of practice when the team went into their two-minute offense, Allen engineered a fast-scoring drive and connected with Moore twice to move across midfield. Even though Allen has failed to reach the 4,000-yard passing mark in each of the last two seasons, he's still been the QB1 and QB4 in fantasy scoring because of his rushing prowess. With Moore in the fold to help bolster the Bills' deep passing attack, Allen could very well return to the 4,000-yard mark in 2026 in his ninth year in the NFL. As if Allen's fantasy ceiling could go even higher, it might do just that if he establishes a nice connection with Moore in the wideout's first season in Buffalo. Allen is the consensus No. 1 overall fantasy QB yet again this year.
