What's still developing

• "I'm just telling you sometimes it's the curveball that you don't see." Jones has just one season remaining on his deal past the 2026 campaign and has looked like anything but the Colts' long-term franchise quarterback this season.
• He has just five touchdown passes to nine interceptions, and the Colts are 2-6 in his starts.
• However, they could make a "curveball" trade ahead of the NFL's Nov.
• According to Deadline, the studio has given out at least four test offers, with three of the four actors expected to test being Jack Lowden, Callum Turner, and Josh O’Connor.
• Deadline broke the news, with an unfortunate caveat.
• The NBA and MLB trade deadlines often prove to be chaotic and wildly interesting.
• Due to a variety of factors (the salary cap, the fact that playbooks are difficult to learn on the fly, and football’s “you’re never truly out of it” nature), the NFL trade deadline has historically been weak in comparison.
• We have already seen a flurry of trades involving big names in the days leading up to the November 10 deadline.
• Esther McGregor and Emilio Sakraya have been cast as Violet Sorrengail and Xaden Riorson in Prime Video’s adaptation of Rebecca Yarros ‘ novel, according to Deadline.
• Meredith Averill serves as showrunner and executive producer, with Lisa Joy set to direct the premiere and executive produce, according to Deadline.
• Deadline also confirmed he has completed filming his role as Koza in the upcoming third season of One Piece.
• Opening Day is the big one, obviously, and then there's another period a few weeks later; the vague Super Two "deadline" is another one, and then it'll tend to slow to a trickle for most of the summer until Sept.
