Most receiving yards in a season in NFL history:

1) Calvin Johnson — 1,964 (in 2012)

2) Cooper Kupp — 1,947 (in 2021)

Through 5 games, Puka Nacua is on pace for an NFL record 1,999 receiving yards.

The QB for all three...? Matthew Stafford.

And on October 3rd, he asked me what day it was.

The #Ravens so far this season:

• Offense: NFL’s No. 3 scoring offense (131 points)…

• Defense: NFL’s worst scoring defense (133 points allowed).

Oh wow. #Jaguars HC Liam Coen and #49ers DC Robert Saleh had to be separated after the game today.

Saleh made comments this week about Jacksonville having a legal sign-stealing system.

Statement from Steelers Spokesman Burt Lauten: “We are aware of a situation involving Skylar Thompson on Friday night in Dublin. We will have no further comment at this time as we are working with NFL security to gather more information regarding the incident.”

#49ers star DE Nick Bosa tore his ACL and is out for the season, per @AdamSchefter.

The #Browns will wear their all-brown helmet and uniform on Sunday vs. the #Packers.

The combo is called “Alpha Dawg” and is presented by DUDE Wipes.

The #Commanders are officially returning to D.C.

#Eagles HC Nick Sirianni spoke with #Cowboys legend Jimmy Johnson last month to get advice on what it takes to win back-to-back Super Bowls — and the biggest advice was to not get complacent, per @JayGlazer.

Sirianni said he has taken that advice to heart.

#Ravens CB Jaire Alexander was not on the final injury report but he is OUT today vs. the #Browns.

He had been dealing with a knee injury, but was not questionable or anything.

The #Ravens wanted to pick Shedeur Sanders at No. 141.

He was taken three picks later at 144 by the #Browns.

The #Ravens were planning to draft Shedeur Sanders in April, but when Sanders heard that, he let them know he did not want to be in a situation behind a star QB like Lamar Jackson, where getting on the field would be unlikely, per @AdamSchefter.

Injury update: The #Patriots ruled out CB Christian Gonzalez (hamstring) and DE Keion White (illness) for Sunday vs. the Miami Dolphins.

Also, LBs coach Zak Kuhr will call plays with DC Terrell Williams away from the team.

The #Cowboys are hosting DE and former No. 1 overall pick Jadeveon Clowney on a visit today, per @JosinaAnderson.

Dallas is in the pass-rush market.

The average purchase price of all WNBA tickets were $89 before Caitlin Clark’s season-ending injury.

After her injury? The average price fell 30% to $62 per ticket.

Ben Simmons’ agent had enough and dropped him after Simmons showed little to no interest in talks with the Knicks 😳, per @SbondyNBA

And more: #49ers QB Brock Purdy is dealing with a left shoulder injury and a toe injury — with the toe being the more significant issue, per HC Kyle Shanahan.

His status for Sunday vs. the Saints is undetermined.

#49ers TE George Kittle will miss a few weeks with a hamstring injury, per HC Kyle Shanahan.

Sources: #Bears All-Pro CB Jaylon Johnson will not play tonight due to calf and groin injuries.

He went through warmups but needs at least another week. Significant absence for Chicago.

The #Jets did not punt in the first half vs. the Steelers — the first time that’s happened in a game since at least 1991.

Wild stat.

NFL EVP Troy Vincent told GMs, HCs, and execs this offseason that sportsmanship is one of the biggest threats to the NFL's brand. He warned of zero tolerance for any acts that “demean the game” and said the NFL would come down hard on violators, per @AdamSchefter.

A decision Monday
