Buffalo Bills, Arizona Cardinals re-sign crucial talent; Houston Texans make an acquisition from free agency

BUFFALO, N.Y./GLENDALE, Ariz./HOUSTON (UPI) -- The Buffalo Bills signed two former players, defensive tackle DeAndre Coleman and safety Robert Blanton, to add depth to their roster on Wednesday.

San Francisco 49ers still searching for first touchdown

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (UPI) -- Two games into the John Lynch/Kyle Shanahan regime, it's pretty clear what the San Francisco 49ers would like. To start over. Fortunately for the 49ers, that's exactly what they get Thursday night when the Los Angeles Rams visit Levi's Stadium. But be careful what you wish for. Flopping a third consecutive time could result in a complete strikeout with 49ers fans. You see, the new-look club had built-in excuses in its first two games. How in the world were they […]
