Patriots DT Milton Williams was critical of the playing surface after Sunday's 35-10 loss to the Lions and blamed it for the injuries to Patriots QB Drake Maye (ankle) and Lions DE Aidan Hutchinson (knee). "Two top players in this league, probably got season-ending injuries playing on that (field). It was bad," Williams said. He clarified that he did not know the extent of Maye's injury. "But like I said, I ain't making no excuses. (The Lions) executed. They played on the same field we did, and they executed and made more plays than we did," Williams added.

Lions DE Aidan Hutchinson is out for Sunday's game against the Patriots "and likely longer" after suffering a knee injury while celebrating. Hutchinson was hurt celebrating a sack of Drake Maye in the Week 10 game in Munich.
| Footballguys view: We wonder how many coaches are going to use this as teach tape this week. Kicker Bill Gramatica famously tore his ACL celebrating a 42-yard field goal in 2001. He actually stayed in the game and made another field goal and an extra point, with Pat Tillman (RIP) handling kickoff. Hutchinson, on the other hand, was not able to finish the game after hurting himself celebrating. Hopefully this doesn't alter the course of a team that should consider itself a Super Bowl contender in a wide open NFC. |

Raiders DE Maxx Crosby stayed in Las Vegas through Tuesday's trade deadline after the team made clear it wanted to keep him. Multiple league sources indicated there was minimal talk regarding Crosby, giving potential suitors little reason to believe a call would get far. "We say no a lot more than we say yes," general manager John Spytek said. The Raiders traded QB Kirk Cousins to the Vikings on Tuesday but view Crosby, who has continued to express his desire to spend his entire career with the team, as a big part of their future and an asset to help the transition to rookie QB Fernando Mendoza.

| Footballguys view: Garrett gets to play alongside Aaron Donald for the first time. Good luck to the Commanders as that duo should give opponents nightmares on a weekly basis. This season has not been smooth for the 4-4 Rams, but now they have one of their best defenders back and are looking to make a run to get into the playoff hunt. |

Rams DE Myles Garrett returned to practice on Wednesday, opening his 21-day window to return from injured reserve after missing seven games following left knee surgery. Coach Sean McVay said Garrett would take half the amount of full reps on Wednesday and would be evaluated each day before the team determines when he will be activated for a game. "A lot of it is going to be predicated on his communication and feedback to us, and then ultimately being able to see that, hopefully the expectation is he's ready to rock this week," McVay said ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders. Garrett went through individual drills with the edge rushers during the portion of practice open to reporters.

"My conditioning right now is probably the worst it's been in my career," Parsons said. "Am I gonna go out there and play 50, 60 snaps how I was doing before? Absolutely not. It's just not realistic. My body's not there yet. I don't even think my knee's built for that yet. I didn't go through training camp." Asked whether he would be "the All-Pro Micah" this year, Parsons said, "Probably not until later, after I go through all my phases and things like that."

Packers DE Micah Parsons will practice on Wednesday for the first time in almost 11 months, head coach Matt LaFleur said. Parsons' 21-day window to be activated from the PUP list is now open.
| Footballguys view: LaFleur said Parsons is a "full go" to do individual work at practice. That's not a lock to put him back on the field in Week 9, but obviously Parsons is getting close. The Packers want him healthy for a Super Bowl run, so expect Parsons to get eased back into the lineup when he does return. |

Raiders DE Maxx Crosby wants to remain with the team, has no desire to leave and is "definitely not forcing his way out." Raiders GM John Spytek is still sure to get calls about Crosby over the next 10 days before the trade deadline, leaving open the possibility of another blockbuster deal.
| Footballguys view: Pelissero points out that Crosby does not want to leave the Raiders, but they could get quite a bit for him if there's another team willing to pay the price. A failed offseason trade with the Ravens fell through, so Crosby sees it as a sign he should stay with the Raiders. Before a failed physical designation, the Ravens were happy to send two first-round picks to the Raiders for Crosby. Raiders GM John Spytek could be looking for a similar deal. |
