There were no games on the field, but the AFC South still saw a significant shakeup in the past 24 hours. The Jacksonville Jaguars lost a key starter on their offensive line, the Indianapolis Colts are dealing with a criminal charge for one of their quarterbacks, and the Tennessee Titans are now part of an NFL investigation.
Jaguars: Harrison done for the season
Pro Football Rumors reports that left tackle Anton Harrison underwent knee surgery yesterday, and the procedure revealed a torn ACL. The outlet notes that he will not be able to return to action this year. CBS Sports likewise describes the Jaguars’ left tackle as “done for the season” with a torn ACL and looks at Jacksonville’s options ahead of the trade deadline. According to CBS Sports, Walker Little will take over protecting Trevor Lawrence’s blind side. The Jaguars sit atop the division at 4-2 and will now have to protect their franchise quarterback without their original starter on the left side.
Colts: Richardson charge and Taylor trade talk
In Indianapolis (2-4), Pro Football Rumors reports that backup quarterback Anthony Richardson was charged on Monday with a Class B misdemeanor for marijuana possession following a traffic stop in Carmel, Ind., on October 12. A bench trial is scheduled for January 4, 2027. CBS Sports adds that police cited Richardson during that October 12 stop after officers discovered marijuana and THC gummies inside his vehicle. Meanwhile, CBS Sports examines whether the Seahawks should trade for star running back Jonathan Taylor, arguing that the Colts could command a hefty return while weighing whether such a move would be worth it for Seattle.
Titans and Texans: Elliott under review, expectations in Houston
For Tennessee, Pro Football Rumors notes that the NFL is investigating defensive tackle Jordan Elliott, whom the Titans (1-5) released earlier this week. The site explains that the move stemmed from an incident in which Elliott retrieved his gun from his parked car, a situation which was ultimately de-escalated but still triggered league scrutiny.
The Houston Texans (2-4) did not generate transaction or injury headlines but still surfaced in Week 7 projections. In a rundown of NFL odds and expert picks, CBS Sports asks whether the Texans can “keep rolling,” a sign that analysts view Houston as a team trending upward despite its losing record.
