The Dolphins signed Allen Hurns to a contract extension, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

It’s reportedly a two-year extension worth $8 million with over $3 million guaranteed. This is great to hear for Hurns after the former Jaguar and Cowboy worked his way back from last year’s serious leg injury. Hurns just turned 28, and perhaps he can provide more fantasy value when the Dolphins get better as a team.

Matthew Stafford (hip/back) will not play in Week 11.

Stafford did not practice all week, and things were trending in this direction. This is Stafford’s second consecutive missed game, and it’s probably really tough for him not to be out there with his teammates, but everyone is making the smart move for the long-term health of the player. Jeff Driskel is in the QB2 mix because of his rushing potential.

Darren Sproles (quad) is out for the remainder of the season, according to Mike Garafolo.

Sproles appeared in six games this season, rushing 17 times for 66 yards and catching six passes for 24 yards. The veteran returned this year in large part because he didn’t want to end his career with an injury (which ended his 2018 season), but he’s had trouble staying healthy, and last week against the Bears was likely his final game. The Eagles may soon sign Jay Ajayi after bringing him in for a visit.

Diontae Johnson leaves game after hit to the head.

Johnson took a direct helmet-to-helmet hit from Browns safety Damarious Randall while going for a deep ball. Randall was ejected for the hit, and Johnson appeared to be bleeding from the side of the head or ear area on his way off the field. Unfortunately, it’s safe to say Johnson will not be returning to tonight’s game, and hopefully the rookie receiver is feeling better soon. Before leaving, Johnson caught two passes for 17 yards. The Steelers are now down James Conner, JuJu Smith-Schuster, and Johnson in tonight’s game.

James Conner (shoulder) has officially been ruled out for the rest of tonight.

This isn’t a surprise after Conner apparently re-aggravated his AC joint injury early in tonight’s game against the Browns. The Steelers are now down Conner and wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster while down 14-0. Before leaving, Conner had five carries for ten yards and one reception for six yards. He’ll likely be on a week-to-week situation after this, but perhaps the mini bye will give him time to get the shoulder in a position to play in Week 12.

JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion) is out for the rest of tonight’s game.

Smith-Schuster is now in concussion protocol and will have ten days to get cleared for Week 12 against the Bengals. Before leaving tonight’s game, JuJu had two receptions for 21 yards and looked poised for a solid night.

JuJu Smith-Schuster leaves game after hit to the head.

Smith-Schuster was targeted between three players and took a couple of hits to the head before staying on the ground. The third-year receiver is now headed to the locker room with the assistance of trainers, so it’s not looking good right now. JuJu was off to a pretty good start tonight, and now Pittsburgh has both he and running back James Conner in the locker room as they looked to comeback from a 14-0 deficit at Cleveland.
