Free agent WR Treylon Burks to visit Commanders

Details
14 October 2025

Free agent wide receiver Treylon Burks worked out for the Broncos on Tuesday, according to the NFL's personnel notice. He will visit the Commanders on Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports.

The Titans waived Burks from injured reserve last week, making him a free agent.

He was recently cleared for all football activities after recovering from a fractured collarbone in training camp.

Burks joined the Titans with the 18th overall pick in the 2022 draft. The Titans acquired that selection by trading wide receiver A.J. Brown to the Eagles, and the decision to trade Brown rather than sign him to a long-term deal did not work out for Tennessee.

Burks was limited to 22 games in his first two seasons, and he tore his ACL in the fifth game of the 2024 campaign. He had 53 catches for 699 yards and a touchdown.

Bills DLs Larry Ogunjobi, Michael Hoecht can return from suspensions

14 October 2025

The Bills will be getting some defensive line help when they return from their Week 7 bye.

Larry Ogunjobi and Michael Hoecht are both eligible to return from serving six-game suspensions. Both players were suspended for performance-enhancing drug violations after signing with the team as free agents this offseason.

The Bills have roster exemptions for Ogunjobi and Hoecht, but there is space for them on the active roster. They placed safety Damar Hamlin and defensive tackle T.J. Sanders over the weekend, and they announced the release of linebacker Jimmy Ciarlo on Tuesday.

Ciarlo appeared in one game after being signed off the practice squad this month. He was inactive in Monday night's loss to the Falcons.

Jaylon Moore gets the job done for the Chiefs despite last-minute notice

Details
14 October 2025

Jaylon Moore welcomed his third child, a girl they named Selah, early Sunday morning. The Chiefs swing tackle had no idea he would be in the starting lineup only a few hours later.

Rookie left tackle Josh Simmons left the team hours before kickoff to return to his hometown of San Diego for personal reasons.

Moore allowed three pressures and a sack in 40 pass-blocking snaps, per Nate Taylor of ESPN, protecting Patrick Mahomes' blindside against Lions edge rusher Aidan Hutchinson.

"I have all the faith in the world in Jaylon," Mahomes said after the game, via Taylor. "He came here to do what he did today, go out and be up against one of the premier pass rushers in the league and handle his own. That speaks to his professionalism, getting better and better through work throughout the week and being prepared to play at any moment. He went out there and showcased the type of player that he is."

The Chiefs have had a carousel of left tackles in recent seasons and played four last season with Kingsley Suamataia, Wanya Morris, D.J. Humphries and Joe Thuney all playing there. Mahomes was sacked a career-high six times in Super Bowl LIX.

The Chiefs went into the offseason vowing to shore up the position, and they did.

Moore, 27, signed a two-year, $30 million deal with the Chiefs in free agency only to be supplanted by Simmons a month later when they drafted the Ohio State offensive tackle in the first round. Moore spent most of training camp splitting snaps at left guard, right guard and right tackle.

He got it done at left tackle on Sunday, which was a big deal for the Chiefs.

"It was big having my teammates have my back. That was huge for me," Moore said. "The biggest thing for me is earning the trust of my teammates, just to know that whenever my number is called upon I'll be ready and there's no need to worry."
