No. 1 in the 30-second version
Seahawks left tackle Charles Cross returned to limited practice Thursday for the first time since Week 7.
Cross missed the last two games with an ankle injury. Rashid Shaheed (knee) was a full participant in both practices this week, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba was also full after resting Wednesday. Field Gulls, a fan site, expects Josh Jones to start at left tackle in Las Vegas, and Seattle will issue injury designations Friday.

No. 2 in the 30-second version
Justin Jefferson calls Kirk Cousins' trade to the Vikings 'much needed' amid Minnesota's quarterback struggles.
Jefferson said Cousins understands how defenses play him and the plays called for him, and that Cousins doesn't force passes his way. Jefferson said he did not expect to play with Cousins again after Cousins left Minnesota following the 2023 season and signed a four-year, $180 million deal with Atlanta. The article says Minnesota's offensive production has steadily declined since Cousins left and hit an all-time low in Monday's loss to Buffalo, when Carson Wentz went 8 of 25 for 81 yards with two interceptions.

Raiders coach Klint Kubiak will not change his defensive staff despite six straight games allowing 30-plus points.
Kubiak said on Monday that he stands behind defensive coordinator Rob Leonard, the defensive staff and the players. Las Vegas tied a modern-era NFL record with six straight games allowing 30 or more points, and it ranks last of 32 teams in points allowed (268) and yards allowed (3,469).

Jim Harbaugh urges the NFL to investigate a loophole that led to the nixed Daiyan Henley trade with Denver.
The trade would have sent Henley to the Broncos for a 2027 fourth-round pick and a 2028 fifth-round pick, but it was called off after his physical. According to ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter, Denver reportedly had medical concerns about Henley after a shoulder injury he suffered against the Rams. Henley will remain with the Chargers.

Eagles trade defensive tackle Jordan Davis to the Jaguars for a 2027 first-round pick and a 2029 second-rounder.
NBC Sports Philadelphia reports Davis signed a three-year, $78 million extension eight months ago and had a disappointing season overall. Howie Roseman, the Eagles' executive VP and GM, made the trade, which clears the way to keep Moro Ojomo. Davis played 323 snaps in nine games, and the snaps will likely go to Byron Young and Ty Robinson.

Bruce Arians says he wants to coach in the NFL again next season.
Arians told Jordan Schultz that his 2022 retirement from the Buccaneers was due to health problems, including a torn Achilles, back trouble and a heart aneurysm he was monitoring, and that those problems are now resolved. He said talking with his son, a high school coach, reminded him how much he misses the game. If he returns next year at 75, he would be the oldest head coach in NFL history, passing Pete Carroll, who was 74 coaching the Raiders last season. Stampede Blue, a fan blog, speculates Arians could be a Colts candidate as questions grow about Shane Steichen.
