The heavily-guarded Wonderlic test scores from the NFL Scouting Combine have started to leak out. From the Twitter page of Palm Beach Post writer Edgar Thompson:

Gators QB Tim Tebow scored a 22 on his Wonderlic, Jimmy Clausen 23, Colt McCoy 25 and Sam Bradford 36 out of 50, per NFL source.

The Wonderlic, a timed, 50-question exercise, tests the aptitude of draft prospects. The official results of the tests are distributed by the NFL to the 32 teams after the combine, with scores occasionally leaking out. Other noteworthy QB scores that have been reported in the past: Ryan Fitzpatrick (Harvard) 49, QB Matthew Stafford (Georgia) 38, QB Mark Sanchez (28), Michael Vick (20) and Vince Young (15, after getting a 6 on first attempt).

Bills fans finally got their wish on Tuesday. :: AP

Dick Jauron has been fired by the Buffalo Bills, becoming the first NFL head coach axed during the 2009 season.

Under Jauron, the Bills are off to a 3-6 start, including Sunday's 41-17 loss to the Titans. Jauron was in his fourth season in Buffalo, compiling a 24-33 record and no playoff appearances.

According to NFL.com, Bills defensive coordinator Fewell Perry will take over as interim head coach.

Did Jauron deserved to be fired? Was the Bills' timing appropriate? Who will Buffalo hire in the offseason? Share your thoughts in the comments below.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Braylon Edwards did not catch a pass in Sunday's 23-20 overtime loss to the Bengals. The former first-round draft pick might have taken his frustration out later that night. From Cleveland.com:

A-28-year-old Cleveland man accused Browns receiver Braylon Edwards of assaulting him early today at View Ultralounge & Nightclub.

Edward Givens said the incident took place outside of View nightclub at 618 Prospect Ave. at about 2:30 a.m. Givens said he went to Lutheran Hospital this morning because he suffered a black eye and a cut. He said he also has a headache.

The suspect's name on the police report is redacted. But multiple sources and the victim say the suspect is Edwards.

Donovan McNabb's status for Week 2 is uncertain after the Eagles quarterback cracked a rib in Sunday's win over the Panthers. With Michael Vick suspended until Week 3, and Kevin Kolb looking shaky in relief Sunday, the Eagles needed some QB insurance for Week 2 against New Orleans. They found some, in a familiar face. From ESPN.com:

The Eagles reached agreement with quarterback Jeff Garcia, league sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday. Garcia, a 10-year veteran, played for Philadelphia in 2006 and went 5-1 in six starts in relief of an injured McNabb.
