| SUSPENDED |

Indefinitely for violating the NFL's substance-abuse policy, Redskins safety Tanard Jackson. Since being selected by the Buccaneers in the fourth round out of Syracuse in 2007, Jackson, 27, has struggled with drug problems. He missed four games in '09, 14 in '10 and six last season. Tampa Bay released him in April after he failed a physical. This is his third suspension. Jackson, who has not commented, appealed the test result last week, but was denied. He becomes eligible for reinstatement on Aug. 31, 2013.

| PLAYED |

The last 1:40 of South Plantation (Fla.) High's 31--14 victory over Nova High last Friday, by quarterback Erin DiMeglio, the first girl in state history to play the position in a regular-season varsity game. The 5'5", 140-pound senior—the Paladin's third-string passer—handed off twice to running back Daniel Dayes to run out the clock on the victory. "It was a great feeling," DiMeglio (above) said, but added, "I wanted to throw a pass."
