Steelers
- Steelers OC Arthur Smith said heโs never had a tight end with the size and athleticism of Darnell Washington: โIโve never had a tight end like Darnell with that size and athletic ability. Heโs such a unique player. Heโs had some really dominant blocks. Itโs exciting as a coach. The sky is the limit for him.โ (Ray Fittipaldo)
- Steelers QB Justin Fields isnโt worried about the future and any uncertainty around the starting role: โAs I always say we donโt know if weโre going to get tomorrow. Iโm only worried about today, and I know this week Iโm going to start.โ (Ray Fittipaldo)
Texans
Texans HC DeMeco Ryans said WR Tank Dell is considered โday-to-dayโ with his chest injury and they are monitoring him ahead of Week 4.
โYeah, Tank will be day-to-day,โ Ryans said, via Aaron Wilson. โWeโll see how he continues to progress.โ
Dell suffered his injury late in Week 3โs loss to the Vikings. Ryans isnโt concerned about the timing of Dellโs injury when the game was already out of reach.
โNo, not no concern from me. Injuries can happen at any given time,โ Ryans said. โWhat if the injury happened first play of the game? Should he be out there? We canโt control when injuries happen. Guys are going to go play. Thatโs part of our game. Part of the nature of the business. When you play this game, unfortunately, injuries happen. Nobody can predict when injuries happen or when a guy should be in, shouldnโt be in.โ
Ryans expects Dell to be โfine.โ
โYeah, weโll see how Tank goes throughout the week, but he should be fine,โ Ryans said.
Titans
- When taking a look at possible trade proposals for Panthers QB Bryce Young, Joe Rexrode of The Athletic could see the Titans trading QB Will Levis in exchange for Young and a 2025 fifth-round pick.
- Rexrode writes that Levis showed more promise in 2023 than Young has demonstrated throughout his 18 games thus far and a โchange of sceneryโ could benefit both players.
- Titans OC Nick Holz said they still feel like Levis is playing well aside from his few โdisaster playsโ so far this season: โWe feel like Will Levis is playing well, other than a few disaster plays.โ (Jim Wyatt)
- Holz said OTs Nicholas Petit-Frere and Jaelyn Duncan will compete for the starting right tackle job for Week 4 in Fridayโs practice: โGuy who performs best in padded practice on Friday could end up earning the right tackle job.โ (Jim Wyatt)
