Simply put, A.J. Brown had the best receiving debut in Philadelphia team history Sunday, propelling the Eagles to a 38-35 win over the Lions.

Brown racked up 155 yards on 10 catches, the most receiving yards ever for an Eagles player in his first game, according to the Elias Sports Bureau, eclipsing a mark set by Donte' Stallworth (141 yards) in 2006. Only Anquan Boldin (208 yards, 49ers) and Randy Moss (183 yards, Patriots) had better debuts after being traded in the past 30 years, according to ESPN Stats & Information.

With a job as a television analyst waiting, and a desire to move on to the next stage of his life, wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders, 35, formally announced his retirement from the NFL Wednesday.

Sanders, who spent most of six of his 12 NFL seasons in Denver, was in the Broncos' complex with his family to make the announcement. He closed out his career with 13 starts with the Buffalo Bills last season.

The Steelers aren't revealing their Week 1 starting quarterback yet, but on Monday, Mitch Trubisky got a new title: team captain.

Trubisky, 28, was voted one of five team captains along with running back Najee Harris, defensive lineman Cameron Heyward, linebacker T.J. Watt and safety/special teamer Miles Killebrew.
