Giants' Harbaugh won't rule out a Jonathan Taylor trade, reportedly after the team pulled an offer.

Per Big Blue View, Harbaugh did not dispute a report that New York had pulled an offer for the Colts running back, saying the team is open to any situation but nothing looks imminent. The Giants ran for 80 yards on 31 carries Sunday with top backs Cam Skattebo and Tyrone Tracy hurt; Tracy is on IR and Skattebo's status for Thursday is unknown. Harbaugh said the Giants would not make a short-term fix at an exorbitant cost, and the trade deadline is Tuesday afternoon.

No. 2 in the 30-second version

Drew Lock hurts oblique in Seahawks' 17-3 win over Cardinals; Week 10 status up in the air.

Lock went 19-of-28 for 175 yards and a touchdown while starting for the injured Sam Darnold, who missed the game with quad and rib injuries. Coach Mike Macdonald said Lock's status for Week 10 against the Raiders is up in the air. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Darnold is in jeopardy of missing Week 10, so Jalen Milroe is next on the depth chart, and Seattle added Adrian Martinez to the practice squad.
