On Headline Sports podcast with Jessica Kwong:

#1 The Las Vegas Raiders could have the number one draft pick if they just had mailed it in on Sunday but instead decided to fight it out and beat the visiting the Jacksonville Jaguars at Allegiant Stadium on Sunday winning by five 19-14.

#2 New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rogers laughed while being interviewed on the Pat McAfee show saying that Jets it would be funny if he was released by the owner Woody Johnson’s son. Rogers was making fun of the way the organization has been run “Being released would be a first; being released by a teenager, that would also be a first,” said Rogers.

#3 The very next day after the Arizona Cardinals were eliminated from the playoffs after they occupied first place in the NFC West just a month ago the Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said he accepts for most of the blame for the Cards fall “I’m not satisfied with the performance of the team, and that starts with me,” said coach Gannon “So, what I’m really saying, that’s an indictment on myself. I’m not satisfied with myself.”

#4 The injured list continues to pile up for the San Francisco 49ers as left tackle Trent Williams (left ankle), left guard Aaron Banks (right MCL) and back up tackle Jaylon Moore (quad) they will miss the remaining two games of the season. The 49ers have sank fast losing five of their last six games and were eliminated from post season on Sunday when they lost to the Miami Dolphins 29-17.

#5 Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes says his ankle should be alright and he was ready to go under center on Christmas day against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Mahomes said that the team hasn’t done a lot of as far as getting on the practice field saying they’ve done two walk throughs. Mahomes says he can walk around and do what he needs to do that all in all he came out pretty well.
