Jalen Richard didn’t waver when asked if he expects to be back returning punts for the Raiders on Sunday in Kansas City. “Yeah, why not?” Richard said. “I ain’t lost no talent.” Richard muffed three punts in Oakland’s 24-17 win over the Giants but averted a disastrous day as the Raiders recovered all three.

It’s 2017 and everyone in broadcast television is miserable. All five of the over-the-air English-language networks are down again in Nielsen’s TV ratings, though some are retaining Fall 2016 numbers better than others. NBC is hanging in there better than the rest of its competition — and that’s before the channel’s 2018 Winter Olympics and next year’s Super Bowl LII.
