Overview

  • Cleveland fell 34-10 to Detroit as Joe Flacco committed three turnovers, and Kevin Stefanski said Flacco will start in Week 5.
  • Despite impatience from Shedeur Sanders and buzz around Dillon Gabriel, reporting indicates the Browns are staying on a deliberate development timeline for their rookie quarterbacks.
  • Las Vegas lost 25-24 to Chicago when Daniel Carlson’s 54-yard attempt was blocked by Josh Blackwell with 33 seconds left.
  • Geno Smith threw three interceptions and now leads the NFL with seven through four games, and Pete Carroll answered "No" when asked if he considered benching Smith for Kenny Pickett.
  • Maxx Crosby delivered five tackles and his first career interception, and rookie Ashton Jeanty totaled 155 yards with three touchdowns, becoming the first Raiders rookie since Bo Jackson in 1987 to score three in a game.
