SAN DIEGO -- The NFL season continued into its 10th week, while the NBA and PGA Tour keep rumbling on.

In the NFL, offensive lineman Daniel Brunskill (2013-16) started and played all 68 snaps on offense and five snaps on special teams in San Francisco's victory on Monday night over the Los Angeles Rams. Brunskill even went toe-to-toe with superstar Aaron Donald for a few snaps, buying time for quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo to find Deebo Samuel for a huge touchdown. Next week, Brunskill and the 49ers travel to Jacksonville to take on the Jaguars. Safety Damontae Kazee (2013-16) saw action for 26 defensive and two special teams snaps in a Dallas blowout win over Atlanta. Kazee made a pair of solo tackles in the game. On Sunday, the Cowboys will play at the defending AFC Champions, Kansas City. Linebacker Calvin Munson (2013-16) was on the field for six snaps on defense and 15 snaps on special teams in New England's big win over Cleveland. He made the most of his time on the field, posting four tackles (two solo), including a tackle for loss. The Patriots are in Atlanta on Thursday night. Cornerback Darren Hall (2018-20) played for 21 defensive snaps and six special teams snaps for the Falcons. Hall made a solo tackle in the contest. He will face off against Munson on Thursday. Offensive lineman Keith Ismael (2017-19) was on the field for five snaps on special teams for Washington. They will take on Carolina in Week 11. Running back Rashaad Penny (2014-17) did not appear in Seattle's loss to Green Bay. Next week, the Seahawks host Arizona in a pivotal division showdown. Arizona placed tight end David Wells (2014-17) and long snapper Aaron Brewer (2008-11) on injured reserve. Offensive lineman Jacob Capra (2019-20) and tight end Kahale Warring (2016-18) are on the practice squad for Buffalo, while fullback Nick Bawden (2014-17) is on the practice squad for the New York Jets. On the other side of the ball, defensive lineman Alex Barrett (2013-16) is on San Francisco's practice squad.

In the NBA, guard Malachi Flynn (2020) played in three games in the last week for Toronto. Flynn averaged 2.3 points and 1.0 rebound per game.

Forward Kawhi Leonard (2010-11) is on the Los Angeles Clippers, but is sitting out while recovering from a Torn ACL suffered during last season's playoffs. 

On the PGA Tour, Scott Piercy (1999-2001) tied for 19th at the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Houston Open at 2-under-par, while J.J. Spaun (2009-12) tied for 46th at 3-over-par in the event.
