On Monday Night Football, the Bucs have wideouts Mike Evans and Emeka Egbuka active, with Egbuka leading Tampa Bay at 27 catches for 469 yards and five touchdowns. Evans returns after three games out with a hamstring; Egbuka was sidelined for the second half of Week 6. Chris Godwin (fibula), Bucky Irving and right guard Luke Haggard are among Tampa Bay’s inactives. Cornerbacks Zyon McCollum and Benjamin Morrison also return. The Lions arrive short-handed, missing starters Terrion Arnold, Avonte Maddox and All-Pro Kerby Joseph, while safety Brian Branch serves a one-game suspension.

The Kitchen, Food Network’s weekend talk show, will end in December after 40 seasons and more than a decade on air. Hosts Sunny Anderson, Katie Lee Biegel, Jeff Mauro and Geoffrey Zakarian, with recurring host Alex Guarnaschelli, shared heartfelt farewells. Biegel called it “the end of an era,” thanking fans and saying the series was her greatest professional honor. Bobby Flay praised its “iconic run.” Mauro reflected on a dozen years of cooking and laughter—and memorable moments with guests—adding that, despite sadness, he feels grateful and optimistic.

Detroit opened fast, piecing together a six-play, 69-yard march capped by Amon-Ra St. Brown’s 27-yard touchdown for a 7-0 lead early in the first quarter. Tampa Bay’s first series went nowhere after Jack Campbell sacked Baker Mayfield and the Lions pressured again on third down. Later, it was ruled Yaya Diaby knocked the ball loose from Jared Goff before his arm moved forward, setting up a Buccaneers chance. The updates also cite Jared Goff’s 14 TD passes entering Week 7, Detroit’s big home scoring, and Tampa Bay’s ball security, with just two giveaways this season.

The NFL suspended Broncos linebacker Dre Greenlaw one game without pay for post-game comments toward referee Brad Allen following Denver’s 33-32 win over the Giants. Citing Rule 12, Section 3, Article 1(b), the league said Greenlaw chased Allen and verbally threatened him as the official left the field; a video shows their interaction. Linebacker Justin Strnad also appeared to address Allen and apparently slap him somewhat forcefully in the back. Greenlaw has the right to an expedited appeal. The Broncos face the Cowboys on Sunday in Denver.

Colman Domingo has been cast as the Cowardly Lion in Wicked: For Good, ending days of online speculation. The film’s Instagram confirmed the news with a video of Domingo amid plush lions, closing with his “See you in Oz.” Director Jon M. Chu said he approached him via Instagram after teasing a “major star” for the role. The sequel features Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, Bowen Yang, Michelle Yeoh and Jeff Goldblum, and continues Elphaba and Glinda’s diverging paths. Wicked: For Good is slated for release on 21 November.

A study published Monday in the New England Journal of Medicine reports that 38 people with age-related macular degeneration regained partial central vision using a tiny retinal implant paired with camera-equipped smart glasses. The 2-by-2-millimeter photovoltaic device, surgically placed under the retina, converts near infrared images from the glasses into electrical pulses to the optic nerve. After a year, 26 of 32 remaining participants saw better than at baseline—enough for many to tackle crosswords and read books—though vision remained blurry and monochrome. The technology, now owned by Science Corporation, was acquired from Pixium Vision after funding ran out.

The No Kings protests swept U.S. cities on Oct. 18, with marchers in Portland, New York, and San Francisco — some dressed as animals and military clowns. In Washington, D.C., on Oct. 17, cartoon effigies lampooned Vice President J.D. Vance, Kristi Noem, President Donald Trump, and Stephen Miller. The NYPD estimated over 100,000 marched in New York; more than a thousand rallied in Venice, Florida. On Ocean Beach, San Francisco, protesters formed a human banner urging Yes on 50 ahead of a Nov. 4 vote to redraw California's congressional districts, a measure backed by Gov. Gavin Newsom.

Former FBI Director James Comey moved to toss his two-count federal indictment, alleging a vindictive, unconstitutional case driven by President Trump’s “personal animus” and an unlawfully appointed prosecutor. In filings, attorney Patrick Fitzgerald also challenges interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan’s authority and seeks discovery into charging decisions. A hearing on the first motions is set for Nov. 19 in Alexandria, while a separate judge will weigh the appointment challenge. Prosecutors, meanwhile, signaled they may seek to disqualify Fitzgerald and asked for a filter team to review potentially privileged materials.

Researchers report a cleaner way to recover rare earth elements from waste magnets, using flash joule heating and chlorine gas to vaporize unwanted metals and leave REEs behind as oxides or oxychlorides. The process, detailed in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, achieved over 90% purity and over 90% recovery. A life-cycle and techno‑economic analysis found energy use, greenhouse emissions, and operating costs drop by 87%, 84%, and 54% compared with hydrometallurgical extraction. Rice University’s James Tour says the approach could help the United States meet a growing need by tapping e‑waste.

Hulu has greenlit a reboot of Prison Break, set in the same world with new characters. Emily Browning stars as Cassidy, an ex-soldier turned corrections officer who takes a job at one of America’s deadliest prisons for someone she loves. The cast includes Drake Rodger, Lukas Gage, Clayton Cardenas, JR Bourne, Georgie Flores, and Myles Bullock. Elgin James writes, serves as showrunner, and directs the pilot; Dawn Olmstead, creator Paul Scheuring, Marty Adelstein, and Neal Moritz executive produce.
