The Buffalo Bills will be without Nyheim Hines this season following a freak accident
On the cusp of training camp the Buffalo Bills received some difficult news. Due to non-football injuries, running back Nyheim Hines will be out for the entire 2023 season.
The news was first shared by Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network, who noted that Hines suffered a “significant knee injury off-site and is expected to miss the entire 2023 season.
Raiders running back Josh Jacobs was seen leaving Las Vegas on a flight on Monday morning, per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. The news comes following a contract standoff between the two sides, which ended with the running back and team unable to agree on an extension ahead of the deadline.
This move doesn’t come as too much of a surprise since Jacobs made it clear that he was prepared to sit out training camp this year if a deal wasn’t agreed upon. Since he was given the franchise tag and didn’t sign his $10.091 million tender, he cannot be fined for missing training camp.
All 32 teams have opened training camp. We addressed pressing questions and made 53-man roster projections for every team.
Running back Nyheim Hines will not play the 2023 season for the Buffalo Bills after he suffered a significant knee injury in a jet ski accident.
Hines will not be able to pass his physical when Bills veterans are scheduled to report on Tuesday at St. John Fisher University in Rochester. He will require surgery and be placed on season-ending injured reserve.
And that leaves a question:
How do the Bills replace him?
It’s not as simple as it seems.
Good morning, I’m Dan Gartland. I can’t believe NFL training camps are opening already this week.

Brian Harman’s big breakthrough
One of the shortest players on the PGA Tour towered over the competition at Royal Liverpool this weekend.
Chiefs coach Andy Reid hasn’t addressed retirement rumors much in recent years, and apparently it’s because that option isn’t on his radar any time soon.
The 65-year-old coach led the Chiefs to their second Super Bowl title in three seasons back in February, and even after the game he subtly told media that he wasn’t ready to retire.
Chiefs owner Clark Hunt was asked by Pro Football Talk if he feels like Reid could retire soon.
“I really don’t,” Hunt said. “And I hope I don’t for a long time.
Austin Dillon chucked his helmet at a former teammate and vowed revenge, and that’s like the fourth-biggest storyline to come out of Sunday’s NASCAR race at Pocono.
So, yes — I’d say this one gets a thumbs up. Denny Hamlin may have given us all the finger — especially the boo-birds in attendance — but I give Denny and Company two thumbs up.
Thank you, Denny. Thank you, Austin, Kyle Larson, Ryan Preece and Corey LaJoie. We needed a shot in the arm — not the Fauci kind! — and we got one in the NASCAR world yesterday.
Jets fans woke up Monday morning very happy after the team debuted photos of their new “Legacy White” uniforms to be worn twice during the 2023 season.
The throwback uniforms pay homage to the 1979–89 teams that wore white jerseys with two stripes, white pants with one stripe and the iconic green Jets helmets. This era was known as the “Sack Exchange” in the team’s history.
Fans will first see the throwback uniforms in Week 1 against the Bills, then again when the Jets face the Chiefs in Week 4. Both home games will include other legacy details, including themed end zones.

Hide your trophies around Lando Norris
Lando Norris is becoming a menace on the track.
And on the podium as well.
Thanks to recent upgrades to the MCL60, McLaren is enjoying a strong run in the past few weeks. Rookie Oscar Piastri finished fourth in the British Grand Prix after qualifying third, and followed that with a fifth-place finish in the Hungarian Grand Prix. Norris has notched back-to-back podiums in those two races, with a pair of second-place finishes.
However, those have come at a cost.
For some valuable hardware.
