Jordan Griffin (18-7) is more than ready for Saturday's bout with newcomer Youssef Zalal.

After spending most of the race running in the middle of the pack, Stewart-Haas Racing's Aric Almirola made a late-race charge for the lead and may have won had it not been for the bumper of Ricky Stenhouse Jr., which sent him across the finish line sideways in third place at Talladega.

Details released on San Francisco 49ers left tackle Trent Williams' reworked contract revealed that a condition of the deal prevents Williams from being franchise tagged after this season.

Ravens Not Worried About Finding Work For J.K. Dobbins

Baltimore Ravens offensive coordinator Greg Roman recently stated that he is not worried about finding a way to keep all of the weapons in the team's backfield involved.

Jared Goff Being Given More Ownership Of Offense

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff is going to be given more ownership of the offense in his fifth year in the league, though it's unclear what that will actually look like.

Tua Tagovailoa's Rookie Projection Contains Lots Of Variance

The Miami Dolphins offense this year has many question marks, including rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's role in it.

Over the course of his college career, […]

Players Expected To Vote Yes On Proposals

There is a strong expectation that the Major League Baseball Players Association will vote yes on Tuesday on the league's proposed July 1 report date for spring training and codify the health-and-safety protocol to lock in a 60-game season that will start around July 24, according to sources. However, the health-and-safety issues could cause a […]

Free-agent guard/forward Corey Brewer is expected to sign with the Sacramento Kings when the transaction window opens on June 23. He has not played in the league since the 2018-2019 season with the Philadelphia 76ers and Kings. Brewer didn't offer much value during his last stint in the league, so it probably won't be different […]

Memphis Grizzlies forward Anthony Tolliver is expected to remain with the organization for the rest of the season. His 10-day deal with Memphis was about to expire before the NBA went on hiatus. Tolliver reportedly has a verbal agreement with the Grizzlies, but the transaction window does not open up until June 23. He provides […]
