Woman charged with stabbing ex-QB Pryor

-

A woman was charged with attempted homicide in a Pittsburgh stabbing that critically injured former NFL player Terrelle Pryor, who also is facing a charge, police said.

Pryor, 30, was hospitaliz­ed just after 4:30 a.m. ET Saturday following a dispute with “mutual combatants” in an apartment on the city’s North Side, police said.

Allegheny County prosecutor­s and police said Shalaya Briston, 24, of Munhall was charged with attempted homicide and aggravated assault, while Pryor faces a charge of simple assault.

Gregory Diulus of Vantage Management Group, which represents Pryor, said family members had been told Pryor is expected to make a full recovery.

After Pryor’s illustriou­s Ohio State career ended in 2011, he spent time with nine NFL teams, starting out as a quarterbac­k before moving to wide receiver. He most recently signed with Jacksonvil­le but was waived in

September after a hamstring injury.

The Raiders selected Pryor in the 2011 supplement­al draft after he tied for the most touchdown passes in Ohio State history with 57 and registered the second-most wins as a QB with 31.

■ Broncos: Drew Lock (thumb) was activated off injured reserve, and fellow rookie quarterbac­k Brett Rypien was waived, but coach Vic Fangio declined to say whether Lock will start Sunday.

■ Seahawks: Defensive end Jadeveon Clowney (core) and defensive tackle Jarran Reed (ankle) are expected to play Monday, and the status of linebacker Mychal Kendricks (hamstring) will be a game-time decision, coach Pete Carroll said.

■ Jaguars: Linebacker Jake Ryan was activated from the reserve/ non-football injury list, and running back Tyler Ervin was waived. Ryan, 27, signed a two-year, $7.5 million deal in free agency after spending four seasons with Green Bay.

■ Lions: Jeff Driskel (hamstring) was placed on IR, and fellow quarterbac­k Kyle Sloter was signed off Arizona’s practice squad.

■ Chargers: Safeties Derwin James (foot) and Adrian Phillips (forearm) were activated from IR.

■ Browns: Safety Damarious Randall (coach’s decision) was ruled out for Sunday.
