You're locked in to Sports Desk, let's get after it.
Robert Saleh is standing by his guy in Tennessee, announcing he'll give Cam Ward every opportunity to keep the starting job despite a brutal twenty-six to three beatdown at the hands of Houston. The offense was nearly nonexistent, but Saleh isn't blinking. Ward stays under center for now.
Shifting to the ice, Connor Bedard is on the doorstep of his return for Chicago. The Blackhawks captain has been grinding through a shoulder injury, and the team says he could be back for one of three upcoming home games. When Bedard steps on that ice, it changes everything for a franchise that needs a spark badly.
And in the NFL, Dan Quinn is still fuming after Washington let a win slip straight through their fingers. The Commanders botched clock management in overtime against the Giants, turning a near-certain victory into a tie. Quinn called it flat out — it feels like a loss. When you give a game away like that, it is.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
