Recent NFL Headlines – October 1st, 2022

In recent headlines around the NFL, Hurricane Ian, although real for millions in southwest Florida, did not impact the location of the game closest to that part of the United States. There was a point when it was thought that the NFL might have to relocate its Week 4 game in Tampa Bay to Minnesota. You would have thought that the move to the neutral venue would have favored the Chiefs over the Bucs. However, it turns out that the game will be played in Florida after all.

Will Myles Garrett play in Week 4?

In other news, Myles Garrett remains questionable for Week 4 for the Cleveland Browns. Garrett was in a car crash a few days ago.

According to the crash report released to ESPN, Garrett was driving 65 mph on a road with a 45 mph speed limit.
