Jim Tomsula has been named the Scottish Claymores' new defensive line coach following a spell with England Monarchs. At 32, Tomsula is one of the youngest assistant coaches in the NFL Europe League.

San Francisco's Garrison Hearst and quarterback Steve Young both set team records as the 49ers trounced the Detroit Lions 35-13 on Monday night. Hearst rushed for a franchise-record 198 yards and a touchdown and Young scrambled 10 times for 66 yards and a score as San Francisco also set a team record with 328 yards on the ground.
