[UPDATES BELOW] The possible number of casualties are unavailable at this time, but spokeswoman Danita Cohen said that the hospital has treated “several” people for gunshot wounds. At this time, authorities are still on the hunt for the shooter(s), and it’s unclear how many people were behind this horrendous act. We have video footage from...

The Sports Daily This Le’Veon Bell infographic shows how great he was vs Ravens Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell is finally back in midseason form, so watch out AFC. Bell held out and returned to sign his franchise tender on Sept. 1, so being that Sunday’s game was played in Week 4, it’s like he effectively got his preseason reps out of the way, and now the regular season has begun for him. And it showed. Bell was the clear difference-maker in the 26-9 win over the Ravens, carrying the ball 35 (!) times for 144 yards, with two touchdowns...

The Sports Daily This video footage shows OJ Simpson as free man for first time in nine years For the first time in nine years, former NFL running back O.J. Simpson is a free man. Simpson was released from the Nevada prison he was previously housed in — serving time for robbery — on Sunday morning, and the New York Post managed to acquire footage of him leaving in a vehicle. Even Simpson himself was surprised the paparazzi was able to track him down. This was his reaction: “How in the — y’all stalking me?” he uttered. Everything is in...

The Sports Daily Malik Hooker destroys Seahawks RB with stiff-arm on INT return (VIDEO) Colts safety Malik Hooker is one of the few bright spots on his team, and he showed why in Sunday’s game against the Seahawks. Hooker dazzled on one particular play in the third quarter, when a pass deflected off Jimmy Graham’s hands. The Colts safety showed how athletic he is, snagging the ball with one hand and taking off running with it. He was then met by Seahawks running back J.D. McKissic, but Hooker was not fazed, and he used a brutal stiff-arm to send the...

The Sports Daily Ryan Shazier mocks Ray Lewis by doing his signature dance after INT (VIDEO) The Ravens-Steelers rivalry has long been one of the most entertaining in the league, with matchups between the two usually close throughout, and plenty of big hits and highlight-reel plays as well. Sunday’s Week 4 matchup between the two was anything but, with the Steelers dominating on the road en route to a 26-9 win. The defense set the tone early and made things difficult for Joe Flacco all game, and when the Ravens began clawing back into the game, at 19-9, Ryan Shazier...

When LeGarrette Blount comes thundering down the field, it’s best to just get out of his way. A Chargers defender learned that lesson during Sunday’s game, when Blount used his physical strength to stiff-arm him and gain some extra yards on a first-down run.

The Raiders tried to catch the Broncos off guard with a fake-punt attempt in Sunday’s game, and it failed miserably. It was a curious decision, even before the ball was snapped, given that the Raiders had to pick up 11 yards for a first down. But they tried anyway, as Marquette King received the snap and took off running with the football, but he didn’t even manage to get back to the line of scrimmage. King, visibly frustrated after being tackled, took the football and threw it at Broncos fullback Andy Janovich. The ball hit Janovich in the back,...

Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers has had a few temper tantrums during games over the years, so it wasn’t a huge surprise when he had another one on Sunday. It happened in the third quarter of the team’s game against the Eagles, with the Chargers facing a fourth-and-7 situation on Philadelphia’s 45-yard line. The Chargers kept the offense on the field and it appeared that they were going to go for it, but the coaching staff was unable to relay the play call to Rivers in time. Rivers was forced to call a timeout, and he was not happy about...

Eagles tackle Jason Peters made a Wounded Warrior’s day on Sunday, and it was one of the best moments you’ll see this weekend. Peters approached the Eagles fan — a Marine who had lost both his legs in Afghanistan — when he was in the stands at StubHub Center before the game. He then signed the fan’s prosthetic leg, and you can tell just how excited he was after getting Peters’ signature.

Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr. appeared to be in some discomfort after a pass from Eli Manning hit him in the hands and looked to dislocate one of his fingers in the second quarter of Sunday’s game. But it didn’t take long for that issue to be rectified. Beckham made his way to the sideline after the play so a trainer could work on him, as the Giants were clearly interested in doing whatever they could to get their star receiver back on the field. The trainer was successful in correcting Beckham’s issue, as he quickly popped the finger...
