No. 1 in the 30-second version

Kirk Cousins will start at quarterback for the Vikings against the Packers on Sunday.

Coach Kevin O'Connell announced the decision Friday, and Minnesota acquired Cousins from the Raiders at the trade deadline for a 2027 third-round pick. Kyler Murray is ruled out for Sunday's game, according to ProFootballTalk. Carson Wentz started Monday's loss to the Bills.

No. 2 in the 30-second version

Giants fall 21-24 to Commanders after a late touchdown drive and a disputed DPI penalty.

John Harbaugh said the failed third-and-1 quarterback sneak by Jameis Winston was a normal sneak and not a Tush Push. Harbaugh said he would not have tried the delay-of-game trick on the fourth-and-1 play again. CBS Sports reported Giants players criticized the DPI penalty, and ESPN said New York's division lead is shrinking.

No. 3 in the 30-second version

Jaguars will sit newly acquired Jessie Bates and Jordan Davis Sunday against the Titans.

Coach Liam Coen said both players did not have bye weeks with their previous teams, while Jacksonville has already had its bye. Davon Godchaux, who did have a bye, is set to play. Coen said the decision gives the players a week to learn the system.

Brown appeared in only four games for Philadelphia, with one start and five catches for 63 yards. ProFootballTalk reported Brown was available in trades but drew no offers, and that his contract will go through waivers because the trade deadline has passed.
