The good news for the Detroit Lions Sunday was they didn’t lose again, but the bad news was they didn’t win either, as their game against the Pittsburgh Steelers ended at 16-16 after overtime in the NFL’s first tie since Week 3 of the 2020 season.

The Steelers were playing without quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who tested positive for Covid Saturday.

 

Packers Shut Out Seahawks

The Green Bay Packers shut out the Seattle Seahawks 17-0 Sunday in the return of Packers quarterback Aarron Rodgers after missing last week after he tested positive for Covid-19.

Seattle was shut out for the first time in a decade in a return for quarterback Russell  Wildon that didn’t have the same positive result. He was back after missing three games, during which he had surgery for a finger injury.

 

Newton Has Happy Homecoming

Quarterback Cam Newton had a happy homecoming to the Carolina Panthers Sunday, getting touchdowns on his first two plays as Carolina beat the Arizona Cardinals 34-10.

Newton backed up P.J. Walker, who’d replaced the injured Sam Darnold, and produced on the first two of his eight plays. He scored on a two-yard run less than four minutes into the game, and then had a two-yard touchdown pass on his second play. Newton signed a one-year deal with Carolina Thursday after the New England Patriots released him in August after one season. 

 

Washington's Chase Young injures Knee

Washington Football Team defensive end Chase Young injured his knee Sunday in the second quarter of Washington’s 29-19 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and head coach Ron Rivera said the team fears he tore his ACL.

Rivera said Young will have further tests today. Young, the Number 2 pick in the 2020 draft, was named NFL Defense Rookie of the Year last season.
