On Headline Sports with Jessica:
#1 Another high profile name landed on the Covid 19 list for this week when Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger tested positive on Tuesday. The NFL says they’ve done their very best warning players about wearing masks which they have not.
#2 The Dallas Cowboys and the Steelers were involved in a post game scrum exchanging pleasantries after last Sundays’ game and now it was reported that four players on the Steelers including Roethlisberger have Covid 19.
#3 Atlanta Falcons (3-6) head coach Raheem Morris inherited the job after former head coach Dan Quinn was fired after the Falcons started the season at 0-5. After taking over the team Morris won two straight games before losing last Sunday. Morris was the former defensive coordinator before taking over as head coach and there is worry that Morris who is a black head coach might not get a second chance in the NFL if he doesn’t turn the Falcons around for the rest of this season. Second chances for black head coaches in the NFL are rare.
#4 Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rogers has questioned whether or not the NFL is really following Covid 19 protocols based on the science. One issue that was brought up is up can dap it up after a game with teammates and opponents but you can’t sit down and have lunch with them.
#5 The Las Vegas Raiders (5-3) after their latest victory against the Los Angeles Chargers in a narrow close game are vying for their third straight win as they host the Denver Broncos (3-5) on Sunday at Allegiant Stadium a win here could further push the Raiders hopes towards a their post season dreams.
