The NFL is back and so is the injury wire. Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold and Patriots receiver A.J. Brown both left Wednesday night's opener early, and now Atlanta's Tua Tagovailoa is dealing with an oblique issue, putting multiple teams on edge heading into the rest of week one.
Shifting to the biggest global stage in football right now, the San Francisco forty-niners and Los Angeles Rams are set to face off at the MCG in Melbourne, Australia, with millions tuning in worldwide. The good news for San Francisco is that veteran receiver Mike Evans, who battled quad and groin issues all offseason, has been cleared and will start as the team's number one target.
And over in the desert, Vegas is locking in its future. The Golden Knights handed forward Braeden Bowman a six-year contract extension worth three point four million dollars annually. Bowman could be entering his first full season in Vegas, and the organization clearly wants to make sure he stays right there.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
