Teddy Bridgewater Completes Five Passes In Loss To Jaguars

Detroit Lions quarterback Teddy Bridgewater completed five of his 11 passing attempts for 34 yards in the team's preseason loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The veteran signed with Detroit on Aug 10 and will presumably be locked into the QB2 role behind Jared Goff. Detroit selected Hendon Hooker in the third round of the 2023 […]

Chris Buescher a Safe Bet at Watkins Glen

Chris Buescher has emerged as one of the most consistent road course racers in the NASCAR Cup Series, and that shouldn't change this weekend at Watkins Glen. With his 11th-place finish at Indy Road Course last weekend, Buescher has now finished 11th or better in each of the last nine races on this track type, […]

Bubba Wallace Has Much-Needed Strong Qualifying Effort at Watkins Glen

Historically, road course tracks have been a weak point for Bubba Wallace. Over 24 career Cup Series starts on this track type, Bubba has an average finish of 24.8 and has posted just two top-10 finishes (compared to 17 finishes of 21st-place or worse). That means that this current two-race stretch of road course races […]

Daniel Suarez Needs Good Points Day at Watkins Glen

Daniel Suarez has two possible paths to the Playoffs over the next two races: win and get in, or try and make it in on points. If he's going to accomplish the latter, though, he will need to overtake Bubba Wallace in the points standings over the next two races by earning at least 29 […]

Ryan Preece Excited for Watkins Glen Despite Being Slow

The Stewart-Haas Racing organization has struggled to find speed all weekend long at Watkins Glen, and that includes Ryan Preece, driver of the No. 41 Ford.

Josh Johnson To Start On Monday

Baltimore Ravens veteran quarterback Josh Johnson will start in the team's second preseason game against the Washington Commanders on Monday. Tyler Huntley (hamstring) has been out of practice after tweaking his hamstring, so this could give Johnson a chance to compete for the QB2 job behind Lamar Jackson. The 37-year-old has been on 14 NFL […]

Chris Evans To Be Primary Third-Down Back?

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chris Evans has just 95 touches for 266 yards in two seasons since being selected in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft. However, it could be his time to contribute after the departure of Samaje Perine. Paul Dehner Jr. of the Athletic believes he will be the "starting passing-down […]

Road Course Struggles Likely to Continue for Aric Almirola This Weekend

The road course tracks have been a struggle for Aric Almirola and the No. 10 Stewart-Haas Racing team this season and it doesn't look like that's going to change this weekend at Watkins Glen. Thus far in 2023, Almirola has posted finishes of 30th-, 28th-, 18th-, and 39th-place on this track type, with those results […]

Quarterback Best Ball Sleepers for Fantasy Football Drafts

The 2022 fantasy season was a difficult one for several highly-drafted quarterbacks. Kyler Murray, Lamar Jackson, and Dak Prescott all missed significant portions of the year while others like Justin Fields and Tua Tagovailoa battled injuries down the stretch during the fantasy playoffs. What's become clear is the larger divide between the elite quarterbacks and […]

Todd Gilliland Confident He Can Be Fast at Watkins Glen Again

Last year at Watkins Glen, Todd Gilliland had a very strong race car. He led five laps in that race and finished in 4th-place at the end of Stage 1, but mechanical issues ended the No. 38 team's day early and Gilliland wound up finishing in 38th-place.

Kevin Harvick Not Confident and Very Slow at Watkins Glen

Last week at the Indy Road Course, it was a bit surprising to see Kevin Harvick's No. 4 Ford be so slow. He qualified in 38th-place for that race and was just 27th-fastest in Green Flag Speed. He wound up crossing the finish line in 23rd-place when it was all said and done. Flash forward […]

Corey Lajoie Can’t Be Trusted in DFS Despite Strong Speed at Watkins Glen

Road course race tracks are nowhere near Corey Lajoie's strong suit. He has never posted a top-10 finish at this track type in 22 career attempts, and his average finish is 26.0. With that being said, with this NextGen car, Lajoie has gotten better than he was. He finished in 12th-place at the Charlotte Roval […]

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tony Gonsolin (elbow) was placed on the 15-day injured list and is likely done for the season, according to manager Dave Roberts.

Gabriel Moreno Absent From The Lineup For First Game Of Doubleheader

Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Gabriel Moreno is not in the starting lineup for Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader against the San Diego Padres.

Moreno is batting .313/.313/563 with […]

Taylor Heinicke Solidifies Status As Backup

The Atlanta Falcons quarterback, Taylor Heinicke, had a strong performance in Friday night's game, demonstrating why the team signed him as a backup for Desmond Ridder in the offseason.
