Legal & Discipline

Former NFL running back LeShon Johnson was sentenced to five years in federal prison Thursday for operating a large-scale dogfighting ring in Oklahoma. Packers running back Josh Jacobs pleaded no contest to misdemeanor charges of battery and criminal damage to property at a hearing in Green Bay, Wisconsin, on Thursday.

Injury Report

Falcons quarterback Tua Tagovailoa sustained an oblique injury in practice Thursday and was listed as a limited participant, with Rush taking the first-team reps. Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold received "really good news" about his hip, coach Mike Macdonald said, but is expected to miss next week's game. Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers said Thursday the team is leaving the decision on playing Sunday night against the Cowboys up to him.

Return Timelines

Jets running back Breece Hall, who strained his groin Aug. 17, proclaimed himself ready to face the Titans on Sunday at Nissan Stadium, joking his time off was a "good vacation." Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes said he expects to play with no limitations when he returns from torn knee ligaments in Monday night's game against the Broncos.

International Stage

The NFL's latest and farthest international venture is to Melbourne, Australia, raising the question of how the 49ers and Rams fit into those plans. The 49ers' Melbourne visit is a dream come true for the team's Australian fans, many of whom have watched since the Montana-Rice days.
