NFL-National Football League roundup

Nov 24 (The Sports Xchange) - First-round pick Kevin White will take the practice field with the Chicago Bears for the first time in the regular season. Wide receiver White was the seventh overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft. He will be limited early as he works back from surgery to repair a stress fracture in his left tibia. The Bears will have 21 days, beginning Tuesday, to add White to the active roster or shut him down for the year. White is on the reserve/physically unable to perform list. - - - Quarterback Sam Bradford was back on the practice field for a light workout with the Philadelphia Eagles, but offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur downplayed the significance of his attendance at the team walkthrough. Bradford threw passes on the side and is optimistic he can play Thursday at Detroit just 10 days after he separated his left shoulder and suffered a concussion in Week 10. Mark Sanchez started last week in a blowout loss at the hands of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and is 4-5 as a starter with the Eagles. - - - The Seattle Seahawks placed linebacker Nick Moody on injured reserve, released defensive tackle A.J. Francis and signed running back Bryce Brown and wide receiver B.J. Daniels to the 53-man active roster. Tackle Terry Poole was placed on the practice squad/injured reserve.

He is the third Panthers player to be suspended this week. Alexander, who is on injured reserve, was suspended twice last season for substance abuse violations. - - - Jimmy Clausen was claimed off waivers by the Baltimore Ravens, reuiniting the quarterback with Marc Trestman. Clausen played for Trestman, who was head coach of the Chicago Bears, last season. The Ravens placed Joe Flacco on injured reserve with torn ligaments in his knee. - - - The San Francisco 49ers signed quarterback McLeod Bethel-Thompson and linebacker Kevin Snyder to the team's practice squad.
