LOS ANGELES — Rams left tackle Alaric Jackson is being sued by a woman who alleges that Jackson recorded her without her consent during sex, repeatedly refused to delete the video and taunted her with it, ESPN reported.

Jackson was not available in the locker room after practice Thursday. A Rams official said the team was aware of the ESPN ...Read more

Here are my fantasy football best bets for Thursday's Week 11 matchup between the New York Jets and New England Patriots:

N.Y. JETS AT NEW ENGLAND

Obvious starters: Breece Hall (NYJ), Drake Maye (NE), Stefon Diggs (NE), Patriots D/ST.

Who to start: Mason Taylor (NYJ) deserves streaming consideration with Garrett Wilson out against a defense ...Read more

The Jets will be without their star receiver for the foreseeable future.

Garrett Wilson landed on injured reserve Thursday, meaning he will miss at least the next four games.

Wilson injured his right knee during Sunday’s win against the Browns. It is the same knee he injured during the Jets' loss to the Broncos in London that caused him to ...Read more

NEW YORK — The NFL wants the player report cards to stop.

The good news first? Our solid 10-4 straight-up included nailing our Upset of the Week picks (Jets over Browns; “Aawwk!”) and a second upset with Texans over Jaguars. That makes us 4 for 4 on outright upsets the past two weeks. Also had another pair of ‘dogs-with-points last week on covers by the Dolphins vs. Buffalo and Raiders at Denver....Read more

MADRID, Spain — Mike McDaniel opens his Wednesday news conference in Madrid by asking the assembled media “¿Que tal?”

The translation of that Spanish term is “what’s up?” or “how are things?”

It might not be used much in South Florida because not every continent, region or even island speaks the same Spanish, but the intended ...Read more

PHILADELPHIA — Nick Sirianni, near the end of his Wednesday afternoon news conference, said he is “close to being done answering these questions” about A.J. Brown.

Perhaps the Eagles coach should take his umbrage to his star receiver.

There was a bit of déjà vu to it all. The Eagles won a game in which Brown had little involvement, and...Read more

PHILADELPHIA — So I have these two friends — great friends, practically-my-brother friends, bail-ya-out-of-jail friends. (Why would I be in jail, you ask? Let’s just say that, in my house, you won’t find a mattress with its tag still attached.) Both men are sports fans — not just fans, but knowledgeable followers of sports. And both of...Read more

MIAMI — Former NFL star Antonio Brown made his first appearance in a Miami court on Wednesday morning — with a judge granting him a bond in his attempted murder case.

At the hearing, Miami-Dade Circuit Court Judge Mindy Glazer allowed Brown to post a $25,000 bond to get out of jail. Glazer also placed Brown on a low-level house arrest, ...Read more

NEW YORK — Jameis Winston was so excited about being named the New York Giants’ starting quarterback for Sunday’s game against the Green Bay Packers that he started signing lyrics from the Broadway musical "Hamilton."

“This is something I’ve been doing since I was four years old, now I get to do it in the greatest city in the ...Read more

SEATTLE — The Seattle Seahawks have become a cliché in the best possible way.

Minutes after Seattle’s fourth consecutive win, coach Mike Macdonald said Sunday: “We had some guys go down this week, as you guys are well aware. We had guys step up, and nobody flinched. It took all 70 [players on the roster] again. That’s how we roll.”

...Read more

PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers have this annoying little problem on offense.

They don’t run enough plays, they don’t compile enough yards, they don’t make a lot of splash plays and their most productive wide receiver has been the one who plays the least.

Otherwise, they have no issues.

It was on full display in Sunday night’s ...Read more

NEW YORK — Former NFL star Antonio Brown has pleaded not guilty to attempted murder as he prepares to face trial on charges stemming from a shooting in Miami earlier this year.

Brown, who was arrested in Dubai last week and extradited to New Jersey, was released from the Essex County Jail late Tuesday morning and transferred to south Florida...Read more

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Paul Tagliabue died this past weekend. The former NFL commissioner was influential and successful in helping America’s favorite league navigate enormous change with profitable leaps and bounds.

It’s necessary to say that here, at the top, because this column isn’t an ode or obituary to Tagliabue. This is about an...Read more

PHILADELPHIA — Jaire Alexander is stepping away from football, a league source told The Philadelphia Inquirer, confirming a Fox Sports report on Tuesday night.

The Eagles acquired the 28-year-old outside cornerback ahead of the trade deadline last week from the Baltimore Ravens in a late-round pick swap. Alexander, the Green Bay Packers’ No...Read more

TAMPA, Fla. — Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie running back Josh Williams has been suspended six games without pay for violating the NFL’s policy on performance-enhancing substances, the league announced Tuesday.

Williams, an undrafted free agent from LSU, had been serving as Tampa Bay’s No. 3 ball carrier behind Rachaad White and Sean Tucker ...Read more

BALTIMORE — For the first time in his career, Justin Tucker is a free agent in search of work. His 10-week suspension is over and Tucker can now rejoin a locker room and try to reclaim the rhythm and routine that shaped his storied career.

Second chances exist in life and sports.

Teams desperate for stability at kicker will at least consider...Read more

Each week I’ll list the best widely available free agents for fantasy football — I define “widely available” as being owned in around half of all ESPN or Yahoo leagues — and some guys who are probably better off in the free agent pool than collecting dust on your roster.
