SIDELINED
Carson Wentz walked out of the locker room with his right hand bandaged in ice after the Philadelphia Eagles’ 17-9 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, the latest setback in a difficult season for the Philly QB. Wentz injured his throwing hand, or possibly his thumb, when he tried to tackle a defensive lineman after he lost a fumble on a muffed handoff in the third quarter. He had X-rays in the locker room that showed no serious damage. After he re-entered the game, Wentz shook his hand in apparent pain on several throws. … The left side of the Saints’ offensive line ran into more problems when left tackle Terron Armstead departed in the first half of New Orleans’ victory over Carolina with an apparent leg injury. The Saints already were without left guard Andrus Peat, who normally slides over to tackle when Armstead is out, so Patrick Omameh subbed in at tackle next to guard Nick Easton, who was filling in at left guard. Two Panthers players also appeared to suffer leg injuries in the first half: defensive tackle Dontari Poe and guard Greg Van Roten.

“I was so hype I think I broke a water bottle. I look up and we were in victory (formation) and said, ‘Oh, I thought the game was over with already.’ But I’ll get it next time.” - Washington quarterback Dwayne Haskins who missed the final snap of his team’s 19-16 win because he was taking a selfie with a fan who was in the first row. Backup Case Keenum went on the field to kneel down and run out the clock in Washington’s second win of the season.
