Strome was injured 3:34 into the first period as he skated toward the end boards during a Capitals power play. The first-line center got tripped by Senators defenseman Artem Zub and was fallen on top of by Jakob Chychrun as they both collided into the boards. After lying on the ice for about a minute, Strome was helped off the ice by John Carlson and Chychrun and was favoring his left leg.
Rielly was already considered questionable for Friday's game, dealing with an injury he had suffered on Tuesday against the New Jersey Devils. No details have been given on what Rielly is dealing with, nor its severity. That being said, considering he played the full game Tuesday, skated Friday, and is still a possibility for Saturday, there's good reason to believe it's nothing too serious and the Leafs are just being cautious.
Berrios made 30 starts this season before he was moved to the bullpen, a move that he was openly unhappy discussing. Through those starts, Berrios totaled a 4.06 ERA, going 9-5 in that span. Now, his season has been shut down. Some of the pitchers that the Dodgers will be seeing in the Fall Classic include right-hander Kevin Gausman, right-hander Trey Yesavage, and right-hander Chris Bassitt, among others.
It will be a really difficult decision for [Yoane] Wissa not to go to AFCON [Africa Cup of Nations] because you always want to represent your country but what I would say is, because of him not training or playing during the summer, he could've shown more responsibility in not playing as much as he did in those two games [for DR Congo] when he went away on international duty and hadn't played at all,
He's worked very hard to become part of that Newcastle team despite the injuries he's had, he plays wherever he's needed and has always done a very good job. He's done the same for England as well and has improved his reputation considerably. A lot of that progress has been made since he joined Newcastle, where he clearly has the trust and a good relationship with the manager.
Rams star receiver Puka Nacua will not play Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars because of an ankle injury he suffered in last Sunday's victory over the Baltimore Ravens, coach Sean McVay told reporters Friday in Baltimore.

Raducanu retired during the second set of her match against Ann Li in Wuhan last week with dizziness in hot and humid temperatures, and later posted a picture on social media of herself at a doctor's office. She said she felt better and chose to play the Ningbo Open this week but was clearly not 100% and again lost her opening match.
The Devils called up Nico Daws from their AHL affiliate on Wednesday with the expectation he'll work in tandem with veteran Jake Allen, who left their 3-2 win Monday over the Columbus Blue Jackets with cramping. Markstrom played for 20 minutes and stopped eight of the nine shots that he faced.
Warner was asked if he could name the three off-ball linebackers who have won the NFL's Defensive Player of the Year Award. Before the question is even fully asked, Warner rattled off the names: Ray Lewis, Brian Urlacher and Luke Kuechly. At the time, Warner had a small fracture in his ankle but was still playing near his usual, All Pro level. Warner believed he was playing the best football of his career in a season where nothing went right for the 49ers.
The answer is that his comeback -- so far at least -- is not going to plan. It was on Oct. 12, 2023 that he had a serious left knee injury playing for Brazil against Uruguay in the early rounds of World Cup qualification. The subsequent two years have brought no evidence that the 33-year-old is still capable of tipping the balance at the highest level.
Typically, players have three option seasons with one used each season during which the player spends at least 20 days on optional assignment in the minor leagues. A player is considered to be on optional assignment when on a club's 40-man roster but sent to the minor leagues while not on a rehab assignment. Brito, 24, was selected to the 40-man roster in Cleveland in November of 2022 in a move that protected him from that year's Rule 5 draft.
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray is not expected to play Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts because of a foot injury suffered last weekend, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter and Jeremy Fowler. Veteran backup Jacoby Brissett would start in Murray's place at Lucas Oil Stadium, where Brissett played from 2017-2020. Murray only practiced Friday after injuring his foot in a loss to the Tennessee Titans.

England did not reveal the nature of his injury but the 22-year-old has returned to the Bundesliga club as a precaution. The former Liverpool defender has been a mainstay in Leverkusen's defence this season
"We were so brave in trying to go forward, try to find the space," said Pochettino post-game about the second half efforts as the U.S. upped its tempo at Q2 Stadium in Austin, Texas. "Ecuador is a very physical team. Chasing people at the same time, with the possibility and the calm to play, I think we were capable to find the gaps and challenge [them]."
