Read unlimited articles for free today: Already have an account? ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — The Denver Broncos’ usually stout defense has been rocked ever since losing second-year cornerback Riley Moss to an MCL injury against Las Vegas in Week 12. Without Moss there to capitalize on opponents shying away from star cornerback Patrick Surtain II, the Broncos (9-6) have had to largely abandon their preferred man coverage in favor of zone strategies and the results haven’t been pretty. They allowed 32 points to the Cleveland Browns when former teammate Jerry Jeudy caught nine passes for a career-best 235 yards, including a 70-yard touchdown. Only Jonathan Taylor’s fumble at the goal line as he was about to score a 41-yard touchdown and give Indianapolis a 20-3 lead saved the Broncos in Week 15 and allowed Denver to seize momentum and get the victory. They couldn’t stop Justin Herbert, who led the Los Angeles Chargers back from a double-digit third-quarter deficit for a 34-27 win last week that prevented the Broncos from ending their eight-year playoff drought. It also put more pressure on the Broncos to win Saturday at Cincinnati, where the Bengals (7-8) cling to hopes of catching the Broncos and deny Denver a wild-card berth. Moss has enjoyed a breakout season in Denver with 71 tackles, eight pass breakups and an interception in 12 starts. He played in 14 games as a rotation player his rookie season after recovering from core muscle surgery that relegated him to special teams and spot duty in 2023. “We were and have been super excited” about the third-round pick out of Iowa, coach Sean Payton said. “Obviously, the guy that plays opposite of Patrick is going to get a lot of business. All throughout training camp, he really rose to the occasion, battled, competed and throughout really a good portion of the season. “He’s a big reason why we were playing so well defensively,” Payton added. “The sooner the better when we can get him back in the lineup. Hopefully it can happen this weekend.” In Moss’ dozen starts, the Broncos allowed 16.8 points per game. Without him, they’ve been allowing 26.3 points a game. Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase pose a bigger challenge to the Broncos than Jeudy and Jameis Wiston did for Cleveland or Herbert and Ladd McConkey did for the Chargers. Moss returned to practice last week and the Broncos will determine this week whether he’s ready to return to the field or if it’s better to keep him out until their season finale against Kansas City. Winnipeg Jets Game Days On Winnipeg Jets game days, hockey writers Mike McIntyre and Ken Wiebe send news, notes and quotes from the morning skate, as well as injury updates and lineup decisions. Arrives a few hours prior to puck drop. The medial collateral ligament is on the inside of the knee that connects the thigh bone to the shin bone. It’s one of four major ligaments that stabilize the knee and allow it to rotate. It typically takes a month to recover from an MCL sprain and the Broncos had their bye week earlier this month, meaning Moss might only have to miss three games. If the Broncos reach the playoffs for the first time since winning Super Bowl 50 in Hall of Famer Peyton Manning’s last start, they’ll likely need to have a healthy Moss opposite Surtain to have any realistic hopes of avoiding a one-and-done appearance. The Broncos got a scare when Surtain injured an ankle against Indianapolis two weeks ago and limped off the field in the closing minutes. However, he was a full-go at practice last week and had no issues against the Chargers. ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl Advertisement AdvertisementAn online debate over foreign workers in tech shows tensions in Trump's political coalition

Judge Arun Subramanian said at a hearing that he will release his decision on Combs' latest request for bail after Combs’ lawyers and federal prosecutors file letters addressing outstanding issues. Those letters are due at noon on Monday, Subramanian said. Combs’ lawyers pitched having him await trial under around-the-clock surveillance either his mansion on an island near Miami Beach or — after the judge scoffed at that location — an apartment on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Their plan essentially amounts to putting Combs on house arrest, with strict limits on who he has contact with. But prosecutors argue that Combs has routinely flouted jail rules and can't be trusted not to interfere with witnesses or the judicial process. “The argument that he’s a lawless person who doesn’t follow instructions isn’t factually accurate,” Combs lawyer Anthony Ricco argued. “The idea that he’s an out-of-control individual who has to be detained isn’t factually accurate.” Combs, 55, has pleaded not guilty to charges that he coerced and abused women for years with help from a network of associates and employees while silencing victims through blackmail and violence, including kidnapping, arson and physical beatings. His trial is slated to begin May 5. The Bad Boy Records founder remains locked up at a Brooklyn federal jail, where he spent his Nov. 4 birthday. Two other judges previously concluded that Combs would be a danger to the community if he is released and an appeals court judge last month denied Combs’ immediate release while a three-judge panel of the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals weighs his bail request. Friday's hearing was the second time Combs was in court this week. On Tuesday, a judge blocked prosecutors from using as evidence papers that were seized from his cell during jail-wide sweep for contraband and weapons at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. As he entered through a side door, Combs waved to relatives including his mother and several of his children in the courtroom gallery, tapping his hand to his heart and blowing kisses at them. He then hugged his lead attorney, Marc Agnifilo, before taking a seat at the defense table. He was not handcuffed or shackled and wore a beige jail uniform, occasionally pulling a pair of reading glasses from his pocket as he peered at papers in front of him. Prosecutors maintain that no bail conditions will mitigate the “risk of obstruction and dangerousness to others” of releasing Combs from jail. Prosecutors contend that while locked up the “I'll Be Missing You” artist has orchestrated social media campaigns aimed at tainting the jury pool. They allege that he has also attempted to publicly leak materials he thinks would be helpful to his case and is contacting potential witnesses via third parties. “Simply put, the defendant cannot be trusted,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Christy Slavik argued. Combs’ lawyer Teny Geragos countered that, given the strict release conditions proposed, “it would be impossible for him not to follow rules.”Chandigarh: Punjab food and civil supplies minister Lal Chand Kataruchak on Tuesday said the even though milling of the procured paddy had begun in three districts, the Centre had managed to create space for only 25 lakh metric tonnes (LMT) for fresh stocks of rice, against 115 LMT required by the end of the milling season in March, 2025. While informing that 173.65 LMT of paddy had been procured during the procurement season that ended on Nov 30, the minister said that rice milling had begun in Pathankot, Mohali and Ropar but the issue of storage space was yet to be addressed by the Centre. “The Centre should expedite creation of space for rice stocks. We don’t wish to create panic, but it is a valid demand. In the last two months, 25 LMT space has been created. But when the fresh stocks of paddy are milled, we will need space for 115 LMT of rice. The state govt has been continually raising the matter with the Centre and the Food Corporation of India (FCI),” said Kataruchak after a meeting with officials as the paddy procurement season ended on Nov 30. Kataruchak said that the FCI has set a target of moving out 15 LMT of foodgrains in the month of Dec and there is need for the Centre to do more so that there is no problem at the end of the milling process. “The milling exercise will gradually pick up in the state. Presently, 18 trains are being used for movement of trains from the state,” he said. In October, the Centre had assured to move out 40 LMT foodgrains from the state in the next 2-3 months to address the storage issue. Ranjit Singh Jossan, vice-president, Punjab Basmati Rice Millers and Exporters Association, said millers in the state demand that the promise about creation of adequate space should be fulfilled. “This year, around 174 LMT of paddy arrived in Punjab's markets, which rice millers have stored despite last year’s challenges. Trusting the Punjab government and the FCI’s promise to provide 40 LMT of rice storage space by Dec 1, Punjab millers lifted all the paddy. However, only 26 LMT of space has been created so far. Punjab millers demand the government ensure complete storage availability by March 31 and fulfil its commitment,” he said. The rice millers also demanded ‘transparency’ in the trials for PR-126 done by central teams in October. “The report on PR 126 trials conducted by IIT Kharagpur teams should be made public and implemented promptly to mitigate potential losses to the rice milling sector,” he added. Meanwhile, Kataruchak said an e-KYC survey was currently going on with regard to the verification of the ration cards. He said that out of the total 1.57 crore beneficiaries, the e-KYC process of verification has been completed for 1.06 crore beneficiaries and appealed to the remaining beneficiaries to go for the e - KYC procedure so as to make sure that the genuine and needy beneficiaries are not devoid of the benefits of receiving 5 Kg wheat per person per month.Arkansas receiver Andrew Armstrong said Tuesday that he is entering the NFL Draft. Later in the day, a school spokesman told reporters that Armstrong will skip the Razorbacks' bowl game. The destination isn't yet known. Armstrong led the Southeastern Conference in both receptions (78) and receiving yards (1,140) but caught just one touchdown in 11 games this season. His catches and yardage were both second-most in Arkansas history behind Cobi Hamilton, who had 90 receptions for 1,335 yards in 2012. "It's been a journey for the books and I wouldn't trade it for anything because it has made me into the man I am today," Armstrong said of his Razorbacks tenure in a social media post. "... I will never forget all the moments that were shared here in Fayetteville." Armstrong played two seasons at Texas A&M-Commerce before transferring to Arkansas ahead of the 2023 season. In two seasons with the Razorbacks, he caught 134 passes for 1,904 yards and six scores. --Field Level Media
