NFL notebook: Owner calls Raiders' 1-8 start 'my fault'

"Where this team is right now is my fault. We haven't been able to build a
22-man roster," Davis said in an interview with ESPN, referring to the
starting lineups on offense and defense. "We haven't been able to give this
team a chance to win because the reconstruction failed. We failed from 2014 on
to have a roster right now."

Embattled coach Jon Gruden has taken heat for the Raiders winning only one
game this season, his first in a 10-year, $100 million contract that lured him
back to the Raiders' sideline from the broadcast booth.

Davis defended the decision to deal linebacker Khalil Mack to the Chicago
Bears. He said the Raiders presented Mack and agent Joel Segal with a contract
offer in June 2017 that would have made him the NFL's highest-paid defensive
player. When Mack turned it down, the Raiders felt a long-term deal was not
within their reach.

--Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh was tight-lipped on the status of
quarterback Joe Flacco, amid reports that the signal-caller could miss
Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Harbaugh acknowledged Flacco injured his hip early in Week 9's loss to the
Pittsburgh Steelers, saying Flacco "landed awkwardly on his knee," but
declined to say if the QB will be ready for this weekend after having a bye
week to recover.

--Ryan Fitzpatrick will remain the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' starting quarterback
for Week 11 against the New York Giants, head coach Dirk Koetter announced.

"I just think he still gives us the best opportunity right now," Koetter said
of Fitzpatrick, who threw two interceptions and lost a fumble against
Washington on Sunday.

--Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp tore a ligament in his left knee
and will miss the remainder of the 2018 season, coach Sean McVay confirmed.

In the fourth quarter of the Rams' 36-31 victory over the Seattle Seahawks,
Kupp made a cut on his left leg and fell to the ground, holding his knee. He
finishes his second NFL season with 40 catches for 566 yards and six
touchdowns.

--After 13 seasons with six NFL teams, nearly 1,000 receptions and zero
playoff appearances, veteran wide receiver Brandon Marshall could end his
postseason drought after reportedly signing a one-year deal with the New
Orleans Saints.

New Orleans (8-1) signed the 34-year-old free agent after losing the newly
signed Dez Bryant last week to a torn Achilles tendon.

--New England Patriots wideout Julian Edelman is not expected to miss much, if
any, time due to a minor ankle injury, ESPN reported.

Edelman played 54 snaps (82 percent) in Sunday's loss to the Tennessee Titans
and was limping slightly on his left leg after a pass to him on fourth-and-6
early in the fourth quarter was knocked away.

--The Carolina Panthers waived running back C.J. Anderson, giving the veteran
the opportunity to latch on with a new team ahead of Week 11.

Signed to a one-year deal in the offseason after five seasons with the Denver
Broncos, Anderson rushed 24 times for 104 yards in nine games this season.

--New York Jets ownership is unlikely to fire head coach Todd Bowles before
season's end, according to multiple reports.

The focus on Bowles' future increased Sunday after the Jets (3-7) lost to the
Buffalo Bills at MetLife Stadium, 41-10. It was the fourth straight loss for
the Jets, who have a bye this weekend.

--Cincinnati fired defensive coordinator Teryl Austin one day after the
Bengals allowed 51 points and 509 yards in a lopsided loss to the Saints.

The Bengals (5-4) have lost three of their last four while allowing a
league-high 454.6 yards per game, including 500-plus in three straight games.
Only the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (32.3) are giving up more points per game than
Cincinnati (32.0).

--The Bills have released quarterback Nathan Peterman, less than three months
after he won the starting job coming out of the preseason.

The move likely means rookie Josh Allen (elbow) and/or veteran backup Derek
Anderson (concussion) will be ready to return from injury when Buffalo gets
back from its bye in Week 12.

--Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Ronald Darby will miss the rest of the season
after tearing the ACL in his right knee.

--Jacksonville Jaguars center Brandon Linder needs surgery on his knee and
will miss the rest of the season.

--The Atlanta Falcons activated linebacker Deion Jones from injured reserve.

--Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Denzel Perryman will miss the rest of the
season with a left knee injury that will require surgery.
