Watt and Alex Highsmith as they prepare for a pivotal visit to Indianapolis.Watt and Highsmith are both in the concussion protocol following a loss to New England last Thursday.Watt took a knee to the facemask from Patriots running back Ezekiel Elliott on the first play from scrimmage. The perennial All-Pro was slow to get up after the play, then went to the sideline briefly to be examined by team physicians. Watt returned for the end of the drive and then was examined by an independent neurologist shortly thereafter and cleared, playing with a tinted visor the rest of the way on a night he played 52 of Pittsburgh’s 57 defensive snaps.It wasn’t until Watt self-reported concussion-like symptoms when he arrived at the team’s facility on Friday that he was placed into concussion protocol.“I assumed that he was (checked) but again, you know, I’m managing the game,” Tomlin said Mond...Police: 85-year-old man fatally stabbed 81-year-old wife inside Northwest DC apartment

Israel said it is prepared to fight for months or longer to defeat Gaza’s Hamas rulers, as its ground offense intensifies with more airstrikes and artillery fire.Qatar, which has played a key mediating role, says efforts to stop the war and have all hostages released will continue, but a willingness to discuss a cease-fire is fading. Israel faces international outrage after its military offensive has killed more than 17,700 Palestinians in Gaza, around two-thirds of them women and children, according to the Hamas-controlled Health Ministry.

PARIS — French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin offered to resign on Monday after his controversial immigration bill was rejected by the National Assembly, but President Emmanuel Macron refused to accept it.The rejection of the bill on the first day of debates in the lower house is a crushing defeat for the government, after over a year spent negotiating and fine-tuning its details. The legislation, which has already passed a vote in the Senate, aims to speed up the deportation of foreigners who have committed crimes on French soil and includes measures to legalize undocumented workers in some cases.Darmanin conceded a defeat for the government during an interview with the TF1 channel. “It’s a failure, of course, because I wanted to give police officers, gendarmes… and judges the tools to defeat illegal immigration,” he said.On Monday, Macron asked Darmanin to submit “new proposals to move forward by overcoming this blockage and obtaining an effective ...Latest news
