NFL Week 8 News and Notes
Sunday, Oct. 30
Packers Lose Rookie Watson Yet Again
Rookie receiver Christian Watson is having an injury-plagued start to his NFL career. After missing most of camp and some of the regular season due to injury, Watson was ruled out of Sunday night's contest against the Buffalo Bills with a concussion, as announced by the team. Watson left the game after sustaining the injury following a 12-yard catch on the team's opening drive.
Henry Passes Eddie George for Titans' TD Record
During another standout individual effort for the Tennessee Titans, running back Derrick Henry set the team's franchise record for career touchdowns. Henry scored both the 74th and 75th touchdowns of his career, which passed The 33rd Team's own Eddie George for the most in Tennessee Titans/Houston Oilers' history.
Eichenberg Carted Off
Miami Dolphins offensive lineman Liam Eichenberg was carted off the field and immediately ruled out with a knee injury in the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions, the Dolphins reported.
Eagles Lose Davis for Several Weeks
Philadelphia Eagles defensive lineman and 2022 first-round pick Jordan Davis left Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers with an ankle injury, and it will sideline him for more than just a portion of Week 8. NFL media reported Davis' injury is believed to be a high ankle sprain, which would come with a 4-6 week timeline to return to the field. The team is conducting an MRI to determine the exact severity of the injury. Davis needed help getting off the field and trainers were seen working on his right foot while he was being carted to the locker room.
Parker Won't Return
New England Patriots wide receiver Devante Parker was ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the New York Jets with a knee injury, the team reported.
Ingram Questionable to Return
New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders with a knee injury, the Saints announced.
Broncos Evaluating Cushenberry for Hip Injury
The Denver Broncos are evaluating center Lloyd Cushenberry III for a hip injury once the team returns to Denver. Cushenberry was ruled out of Denver's Sunday morning game in London with a hip injury, leaving in the second quarter and being replaced by Graham Glasgow.
The injury left Denver with three backup offensive linemen against Jacksonville, but they still won 21-17.
Edwards Injury Not Serious
Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards' hamstring injury is minor, NFL Media reported. Edwards suffered the injury on Thursday night in Baltimore's win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The Ravens are already missing running back J.K. Dobbins, who is on injured reserve with a knee injury.
