## NFL News Roundup: Latest League Updates from Thursday, Nov. 14
### Injury Report: Key Players Out for Week 11
Several star players will miss this weekend’s action due to injuries. New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston is out for the season with a torn ACL, while his backup, Andy Dalton, has a hamstring injury that will sideline him for multiple weeks. The Saints will turn to Trevor Siemian under center.
Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is also expected to miss Week 11 with a knee injury. His absence is a significant blow to the Cowboys’ offense, as Elliott is one of the league’s leading rushers. Tony Pollard will take over as the lead back in Elliott’s stead.
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings with an ankle injury. Adams is quarterback Aaron Rodgers’ primary target, so his absence would be a major loss for the Packers.
### Trade Deadline Buzz: Teams Make Moves Ahead of Tuesday’s Cutoff
With the NFL trade deadline approaching on Tuesday, Nov. 16, several teams are making moves to bolster their rosters. The Los Angeles Rams have acquired cornerback Jalen Ramsey from the Jacksonville Jaguars in exchange for a 2023 first-round pick and a 2024 first-round pick. Ramsey is one of the league’s top cover corners and will immediately upgrade the Rams’ defense.
The New York Jets have traded wide receiver Denzel Mims to the Carolina Panthers for a 2023 fourth-round pick. Mims had fallen out of favor with the Jets after a disappointing start to the season.
### Coaching Carousel: Browns Fire Stefanski
The Cleveland Browns have fired head coach Kevin Stefanski after the team’s 2-6 start to the season. Stefanski was hired in 2020 and led the Browns to their first playoff appearance since 2002 in his first season. However, the team has struggled in 2022, with Stefanski’s play-calling and decision-making coming under scrutiny.
The Browns have named defensive coordinator Joe Woods as their interim head coach. Woods has been with the team since 2020 and has a strong reputation as a defensive mind.
### Week 11 Preview: Key Matchups to Watch
**Buffalo Bills (7-3) at Detroit Lions (4-6)**
The Bills are coming off a bye week and will look to extend their winning streak to four games against a Lions team that has been a surprise this season. Detroit has won four of its last five games and is led by a young and talented offense.
**Kansas City Chiefs (7-2) at Los Angeles Chargers (5-4)**
The Chiefs and Chargers are two of the most explosive offenses in the NFL. This game is likely to be a high-scoring affair, with both quarterbacks, Patrick Mahomes and Justin Herbert, capable of putting up big numbers.
**Dallas Cowboys (6-3) at Minnesota Vikings (7-2)**
With Elliott out, the Cowboys will rely on Pollard and their defense to keep up with the high-flying Vikings offense. Minnesota is led by quarterback Kirk Cousins and a dynamic receiving corps that includes Justin Jefferson and K.J. Osborn.
### Statistical Standouts
**Justin Jefferson, WR, Minnesota Vikings:** Jefferson has emerged as one of the NFL’s most dominant receivers in his third season. He leads the league in receiving yards (1,103) and is on pace to break several records.
**Micah Parsons, LB, Dallas Cowboys:** Parsons has been a force on defense for the Cowboys. He leads the NFL in sacks (10.5) and is also among the league leaders in tackles and tackles for loss.
**Patrick Mahomes, QB, Kansas City Chiefs:** Mahomes is the reigning NFL MVP and continues to put up incredible numbers. He is second in the league in passing yards (2,936) and touchdowns (26).
