Peyton Manning's 13-year-old son enrolls at Baylor School in Tennessee
The post Peyton Manning's 13-year-old son enrolls at Baylor School in Tennessee appeared first on ClutchPoints. Starting with family patriarch Archie Manning, the family has taken over the NFL since the 1970s. Manning's sons, Eli and Peyton, each forged their own paths. Eli won two Super Bowls with the New York Giants, while Peyton joined his father in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in addition to winning two Lombardi Trophies of his own. Now, the next generation is up. Arch Manning, the son of Peyton and Eli's brother Cooper, is now the starting quarterback at the University of Texas. Joining Arch at the next level could be his cousin Marshall, Peyton's son. Marshall's next team has been decided according to the Chattanooga Times Free Press' Stephen Hargis. 'Sources confirmed Friday that Marshall Manning, the son of Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning, has enrolled and will attend Baylor as an eighth-grade day student,' wrote Hargis on Friday. In the recent past, Manning's own star has begun to flourish. Like his father before him, it seems as if a future in college football is already before him. And this is all before he takes a snap in high school, which wouldn't begin until next year. He would be a Class of 2030 recruit. With Marshall Manning now plying his trade in the state of Tennessee, a new question emerges: will the Tennessee football program, his father's alma mater, become the front runner in his eventual recruitment? Could Peyton Manning's son be next link in Manning quarterback legacy? The youngest Manning is now 14 years old and could eventually turn into a high-level prospect like his cousin Arch before him. That growth could continue at Baylor, which is likely why Peyton and his wife chose to allow their son to transfer. This could certainly fuel rumors that the Hall of Famer wants his son his to get more exposure in front of his alma mater in Knoxville. There's even a potential path in which father and son return to Rocky Top to try and continue the program's quest for national prominence. Many program boosters and supporters would love to have Peyton return to the school and get them back onto the path to glory. If that happens, will Marshall join him? Or will he forge his own path, just like Arch before him?

What channel is the Bills game on? How to watch Buffalo Bills vs Chicago Bears
ORCHARD PARK - Now that James Cook is signed to a new contract extension, the Buffalo Bills star running back might get a few snaps Sunday night against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. The drama surrounding Cook's hold in came to an end Wednesday, one day after he had returned to practice, when he signed his four-year contract extension that included a whopping $30 million in guaranteed money. After missing four practices and the preseason opener last Saturday against the Giants, Cook has fallen behind in season preparation. All of the starters who weren't injured played into the second quarter against New York, so while Cook will get work along with all the first-stringer players Friday when the teams conduct a joint practice at Halas Hall, he may see game action Sunday. When he spoke to reporters Tuesday morning, coach Sean McDermott had not decided on what the game-day lineup would look like. 'We'll see,' he said. 'I'm not there yet on it, I just want to get a big practice (Tuesday) to get through and then (Wednesday) and then as a staff we'll talk about it some more at that point in time.'

James Cook returns to practice after sitting out in contract dispute: What we know
ORCHARD PARK - Buffalo Bills coach Sean McDermott would not get into the specifics, but he did say Tuesday morning that he expected running back James Cook to practice for the first time in more than a week. And sure enough, Cook was on the field when the Bills began their session on the fields behind the practice facility at One Bills Drive. McDermott 'expected' Cook to practice every day of the fourth-year player's hold in, but that of course did not happen, and Cook also skipped the Bills' preseason opener Saturday. He agreed to put on the uniform and go through the warmup, but he made it clear he was not playing as he continued his protest regarding his lack of a contract extension. But McDermott indicated that discussions over the weekend between the team and Cook's representation have pushed things in the direction of Cook getting back on the field. Whether that means a resolution to the contract situation is imminent is unknown. 'I would say so that things have changed,' McDermott said. 'We've had conversations with James, good conversations, as I've mentioned before. And the information that we're getting is that he is moving in the direction of practicing today. So, we'll see in a few minutes here, but that's the information we've got.' Asked whether Cook told him that directly, McDermott said, 'I don't think it's necessary to get into the weeds on it. The most important thing is that he's expected to practice, and I'm rather confident that that's going to happen.' Cook participated in the bulk of the practice including reps with the full team in 11-on-11, but when the session was done, he walked right past reporters without saying a word. Josh Allen said he understands Cook's situation, but it was still good to get him back. 'As players, we have to separate sometimes the business and the sport,' he said. 'I know both sides thought that what they're doing is the right thing. Obviously, we're very happy to have Jimbo out there today, and I trust in (Brandon) Beane and what he's going to get done. 'Just to have him out there and getting those reps and making sure that he's getting ready to go for game one, we had no doubts that he wouldn't be ready, but to be out there with the guys and sweating and battling in practice, I think it's good for the team.'
