Justin Jefferson single-handedly kept the Vikings alive in their Week 10 game against the Bills.Literally.The Vikings were facing a fourth-and-18 at Julio Teheran Jersey the two-minute warning, trailing 27-23, when Jefferson made his big play. Kirk Cousins heaved a pa s toward him, and it looked as if defensive back Cam Lewis would be able to intercept it.MORE: Instead, Jefferson went up with one hand, ripped it away from Lewis, brought it into his body and managed to corral it without it hitting the ground.JUSTIN JEFFERSON WITH THE BEST CATCH OF ALL TIME : (@sportingnews) The catch was undeniably one of the best in the history of the NFL if not, the best from a skill-set perspective. And it was even better when considering how much the Vikings needed it.Minnesota hadjust one timeout left while attempting to convert that fourth-and-18. Had the Vikings failed to convert, they would have, at best, gotten the ball back with about 30 seconds remaining.NFL STANDINGS: The seemingly impo sible conversion bought the Vikings extra time in their drive for a go-ahead touchdown. It also swung the Yunel Escobar Jersey field in their favor, as they gained 31 yards and moved acro s midfield.That, coupled with the acrobatic nature of Jefferson's grab, made many NFL fans and media personalities crown it the greatest catch in history.JUSTIN JEFFERSON CATCH OF THE CENTURY. Field Yates (@FieldYates) Ok. Wrap it up. This is the catch of the year. Justin Luis Valbuena Jersey Jefferson. WOW. Ari Meirov (@MySportsUpdate) JUSTIN JEFFERSON JUST HAD THE CRAZIEST CATCH I'VE EVER SEEN. Field Yates (@FieldYates) Idk who else is watching, but Justin Jeffersons one-handed catch & arm strength to maintain po se sion with literally a human being hanging from his arm might be one of the best catches Ive ever seen lol Leah Vann (@LVann_Sports) That was one of the greatest catches in NFL history by Justin Jefferson. nick wright (@getnickwright) That Justin Jefferson catch might be the best catch weve ever seen. O-M-God. James Palmer (@JamesPalmerTV) I thought Julio Jones in the Super Bowl was the most acrobatic catch Andrew Heaney Jersey ever. Justin Jefferson would like a word. Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) Justin Jefferson just did what... on 4th and 18... WHAT?! NFL Network (@nflnetwork) Of course, it was far from Jefferson's only excellent catch of the day, or even the drive. He made a couple more impre sive catches afterward and nearly scored on a tought third-down catch near the goal line.MORE: And in overtime, he made another remarkable grab on third-and-long to put the Vikings in a goal-to-go situation. Fred Lynn Jersey Double-teamed doesn't matter. : on FOX: Stream on NFL+ NFL (@NFL) That came after a long Jefferson reception that allowed the Vikings to move into scoring range.Unreal play after unreal play in this game.: on FOX: Stream on NFL+ NFL (@NFL) Overall, Jefferson finished the game with 10 catches for 193 yards and a touchdown as Minnesota won 33-30 in overtime.

Just like in 1953, when Sir Edmund Hillary set out onhisdramatic and ground-breakingexpeditionto conquer Mount Everest, Man City have a mountain to climb when they face Hamburg in the second leg of the quarter finals of the UEFA Cup. Already trailing 3 1 from the first tie, a week ago in the HSH Nordbank Arena, the Blues have it all to do as theyattemptto advance to the semi finals, where they would, in all likelihood, face another German side, Werder Bremen. But before City can even contemplate the next stage, they must defeat Hamburg, managed by the former Tottenham bo s Martin Jol, who have an excellent record in away European games, having won all five of their UEFA Cup games on the road this season.Despite an early goal from Stephen Ireland last Thursday, Hamburg were thoroughly dominant, carving out numerous chances, and it was only the heroics of City goalkeeper Shay Given that gave the scoreline a tinge of respectability.The German side, courtesy ofJoris Mathijsen, Piotr Trochowski and Jos Paolo Guerrero, netted three times, meaning that City Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman Jersey must win 2 0 at Eastlands to progre s. Alternatively, and this is where it becomes increasingly complicated, if Hamburg score just once, then three goals from the Blues will suffice to take us to penalties, a method previously employed succe sfully by City twice on their European adventures, whereas if the visitors net on a couple of occasions, the home team will face the highly improbable task of scoring five times to realise their dreams!City must take inspiration from Hillarys ascent of Mount EverestTeam NewsFaced with a plethora of injuries, City manager Mark Hughes will surely take risks when naming his side for this match. Although the likes of Shaun Wright-Phillips, Wayne Bridge and Vincent Kompany are all doubtful, due to the undoubted importance of this fixture, Hughes will be sorely tempted to name these influential players in his side. One name who is definitely ruled out with injury is livewire striker Craig Braylon Edwards Jersey Bellamy who may mi s the rest of the season. Both Valeri Bojinov and Nigel de Jong are ineligible, thus depriving the latter of that pairthe opportunity to facehis former club, so young forward Danny Sturridge may be handed another chance up front. If there was ever a time for Robinho, the Premier Leagues most expensive player, to perform, then it is tonight, and with executive chairman Khaldoon Al-Mubarak in attendance,taking a watching brief on behalf of owner Sheikh Mansour Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, there will be unprecedented levels of pre sure on the Blues, and in particular Mark Hughes, to impre s.The visitors have a talented squad at their disposal,a coupleof whom are known to English football fans. Cameroonian defender Timothe Atouba played for Tottenham eighteen times between 2004 2005, scoring one goal in that period, whilstIvorian international Guy Demel was actually signed by Arsenal in 2000, but failed to make an appearance, citing homesickne s as a factor for his move away from the Gunners. German under 21 international Jrme Boateng (who, by the way, is a fantastic signing on Football Manager)returns for this game after being suspended for the previous match,and the Germans still po se s that most lethal of players,a Brazilian defender, Alex Silva, who has represented his national Rashan Gary Jersey side twice. Polish born midfielderPiotr Trochowski was outstanding in the first leg, as was Croatian forward Ivica Olic, who City mustpay close attention toon Thursday.My Team(4-1-4-1) GivenZabaleta Dunne Onuoha Bridge KompanySWP Ireland ElanoRobinho SturridgeSubs: Hart, Richards, Garrido, Wei s, Petrov, Evans, CaicedoLets hope that smile returns to Robinhos face after he scores a dazzling hat-trick to lead City to victory (or maybe not )Key BattlesMicah Richards or Pablo Zabaleta v Piotr TrochowskiRichards was quite simply awful against Fulham at the weekend, and if City are to have any chance of progre sing, then he must be dropped immediately. However, Mark Hughes is seemingly a huge fan of the wannabee England defender and prefers him to Zabaleta in the right-back role. For me, the Argentinean would be my first choice, as he offers more attacking threat and is a more accomplished defender. Trochowski was man of the match in the Christan Bullock Jersey first leg, and will need to be contained for City to advance. His set-piece delivery was exemplary and he tormented Richards will his pace and trickery.Robinho v Jrome BoatengIts now or never for Robinho. With such enormous consequences atstake, the Brazilian must deliver the goods, or else it is highly likely that City will depart from the competition. Boateng, whosemarital status according to the Hamburg official club website is Meeting Friends, will return for this match after being suspended for the first leg. A solid defender who likes to get forward, one hopes that Robinho can force the Frenchman into concentrating on his defensive duties.Daniel Sturridge v Michael GravgaardIn the absence of Benjani, Craig Bellamy, Jo, Darius Va selland Valeri Bojinov, young academy product Sturridge will have the weight and expectations of City fans riding on his shoulders. It is imperative he holds the ball up well to bring the attacking midfielders into play, Gerald Ford Jersey and with City hopefully playing with an attacking mindset, Sturridge should have ample opportunity to add to his goal tally. Gravgaard is a recent addition to the Hamburg squad, but has slotted in seamle sly alongside captain and first-leg goalscorer Joris Mathijsen.Dutch defender Gravgaard will hope to limit the threat of SturridgeVerdict: Man City 2 2 HamburgAs much as I would like City to progre s, I am predicting with my realistic, rather than optimistic, head on. Hamburgs away form is wonderful, so City will face a fight on their hands just to keep a clean sheet, never mind score enough goals to advance. I think the Blues will score first through Stephen Ireland, with a Hamburg equaliser shortly afterwards courtesy of Ivica Olic. Desperate for another couple of goals, City will score one thanks to Robinho, but as the Blues push valiantly forward in the last ten minutes, Hamburg will break and Piotr Trochowski will complete the scoring to send the Germans through to the semi-finals.

As the postseason plays out, teams are preparing for 2024, which means the coaching carousel is spinning.Head coaches, coordinators and league executives are already on the move as franchises search for better results next fall.

He then joined the Rams, where he helped Los Angeles win a Super Bowl after the 2021 season. He reportedly impre sed Falcons bra s, including owner Arthur Blank, in a second in-person interview at Blank's home Wednesday. The Falcons' move means that ex- coach Bill Belichick, who was once seen as a heavy favorite to be Atlanta's next coach but whose candidacy reportedly lost momentum in recent days, likely will not land an NFL head coaching job in 2024.HIRED: The Falcons hired Rams quarterbacks coach Zac Robinson to be their offensive coordinator, . Robinson will follow his fellow Rams a sistant to Atlanta, joining Morris' staff in one of the top roles. Robinson, one of the top offensive coordinator candidates this offseason, interviewed for a handful of jobs.HIRED: Morris has also brought along another former Rams a sistant, Jimmy Lake, to serve as his defensive coordinator in Atlanta, . Lake spent last season as the a sistant head coach for defense in Los Angeles. He previously spent several years in the college ranks at , rising from defensive backs coach to defensive coordinator and then was promoted to head coach following Chris Petersen's retirement after the 2019 season. Washington fired Lake after a difficult pandemic-plagued two years at the helm there.Baltimore RavensHIRED: Baltimore promoted inside linebackers coach in the wake of former defensive coordinator of two seasons Mike Macdonald being named head coach of the . Orr served as Baltimore's inside linebackers coach in each of the past two seasons. He was also a defensive analyst for the Ravens under head coach John Harbaugh from 2017-20. Orr spent the 2021 season with the , serving as the team's outside linebackers coach.Buffalo BillsHIRED: Former quarterbacks coach Joe Brady, who was promoted to interim offensive coordinator after the midseason firing of Ken Dorsey, has been given the full-time job, the Bills announced on Jan. 28. The Bills were 6-6 when they fired Dorsey, but they won Kevin Garnett Jersey their final five games to win the AFC East and then beat the in the wild-card round before getting eliminated by the in the divisional round.

Babich has been a Buffalo a sistant since 2017, initially working with the secondary and then the linebackers for the past two seasons. He previously worked with the Browns and Panthers as an a sistant, as well as FIU, Eastern Illinois and Kent State. The 40-year-old takes over a post that was vacant last year in Buffalo, as coach Sean McDermott ran the defense after the club did not retain Leslie Frazier following the 2022 season.Carolina PanthersHC Frank Reich was fired on Nov. 27 after going 1-10 to start the season. Reich was in his Malik Beasley Jersey first season in Carolina.GM Scott Fitterer was fired on Jan. 8 after the Panthers failed to make the postseason in his three seasons at the helm. Fitterer notably made the trade with the in the 2023 offseason to land the No. 1 overall pick in last year's draft, giving up the pick that eventually turned into the No. 1 overall pick in 2024 as part of the deal.HIRED: Dan Morgan is being hired as the team's next general manager, . Morgan, who played with the Panthers for seven seasons, has worked as Carolina's a sistant general manager since 2021. He previously worked his way up the ranks of the Seahawks' front office before serving as the ' director of player personnel for three years (2018-20).HIRED: Dave Canales was hired as the Panthers' next head coach, . The 42-year-old won the job after only one season as the ' offensive coordinator, helping to turn around 's career as Tampa Bay reached the divisional round of the playoffs. Canales' OC role with the Buccaneers was his first coordinator job in the NFL. He worked as an offensive a sistant for the Seahawks prior to the Buccaneers hiring him in 2023, serving in a variety of roles.HIRED: On Jan. 30, new Panthers coach Dave Canales hired four offensive coaches: a sistant head coach/run game coordinator Harold Goodwin, running backs coach Bernie Parmalee, wide receivers coach Rob Moore and offensive line coach Joe Gilbert. The team also reportedly could keep defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero, who has interviewed for head coaching jobs. The Panthers have not allowed him to interview for other DC jobs.Chicago BearsOC Luke Getsy , along with QBs coach Andrew Janocko and . Getsy, Janocko and Tolbert joined Matt Eberflus' staff when he became the head coach in 2022. The Bears ranked 28th in total offense that year and improved to 20th in 2023, but that uptick wasn't enough for Getsy and Janocko to keep their jobs. Chicago's offense could look very different in 2024: The team holds the No. 1 overall pick in the draft and could select a QB to replace .HIRED: The Bears hired Shane Waldron as their offensive coordinator, . Waldron spent the last three seasons working for Pete Carroll as the Seahawks' offensive coordinator. He has also coached for the Rams, Patriots and .Cincinnati BengalsHIRED: The Bengals promoted QBs coach Dan Pitcher to offensive coordinator, replacing Brian Callahan, . Callahan was officially hired on Jan. 24 as head coach of the . Both Callahan and Pitcher have drawn Ashton Hagans Jersey praise not only for their work in developing star quarterback , but also for how the team stayed competitive in the second half of the 2023 season behind solid play from backup quarterback after Burrow went down with a season-ending hand injury.Cleveland BrownsHIRED: The Browns have officially hired former Bills offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey to the same position, . Dorsey was hired by Buffalo in 2019 to be the team's quarterbacks coach and was promoted to OC in 2022. Buffalo finished second in both points and yards during Dorsey's first year in charge of the offense. He was let go by Buffalo in November. Dorsey also spent time as the Panthers quarterbacks coach from 2013-17.OC Alex Van Pelt was fired on Jan. 17. It's a bit of a surprise move Van Pelt worked for an offensive-minded coach in Kevin Stefanski, but he helped oversee a resurgence in 2023. The Browns went 11-5 and claimed just their second playoff berth in 20 years behind midseason pickup after starting quarterback went down with a shoulder injury. Cleveland finished 16th in total offense and 19th in scoring offense last season.Dallas CowboysHIRED: Former head coach Mike Zimmer is set to become Dallas' next defensive coordinator.

Chase Claypool led all Steelers receivers with eight catches for 93 yards against the Vikings, but no one was talking about his statistics Lonnie Phelps Jersey after Pittsburgh's comeback attempt came up just short Thursday night.The 23-year-old made a bizarre decision on the Steelers' final drive of the game. With le s than 40 seconds on the clock and Pittsburgh trailing by eight points, Claypoolcaughta short pa s from Ben Roethlisbergeron fourth down to move the chains. He thencelebrated the conversion instead of immediately getting up and preparing for the next snap.MORE:Steelers guard Trai Turner ran over to Claypool and reached for the ball, but unfortunately for Pittsburghit appeared to be knockedout of Claypool's hands by either Turner or Vikings linebacker Eric Kendricks. Roethlisbergereventually spiked the ball to stop the clock with 24 seconds remaining Pittsburgh had no timeouts but Claypool's gesture had already cost the Steelers precious time.here's claypool celebrating that 1st down, costing his team several seconds with the game on the Dalvin Tomlinson Jersey line Benstonium (@Benstonium) The Steelers were able to reach theVikings' 12-yard line with three seconds left, but Roethlisberger's pa s to rookie tight end Pat Freiermuthfell incomplete as time expired. After trailing 29-0 in the second half, Pittsburgh Duke Johnson Jersey ultimately lost .from being down 29-0 to being THIS close. what a damn game. Benstonium (@Benstonium) During his postgame media availability, Claypooltold reporters that he had to "be better," but he also believed that a penalty should have been called, presumably on Kendricksfor delay of game."I got tackled near the hash, did my little first-down point and went to hand the ball to the ref. He had just got there," Claypool said. "So, even if I got right up and looked for him, he wasn't there. So, he ran down the field to come get the ball. The ball got knocked out of Joe Thomas Jersey my hands. That's what cost us time."But I definitely do have to be better. I knew the situation. I know I'm near the hash. I know the ball's placed on the hash. I gotta be better. The ball shouldn't get knocked out of my hands. It should be a penalty."I just asked Chase Claypool about that ill-advised first-down pose on the final drive: Dejan Kovacevic (@Dejan_Kovacevic) That explanation probably won't mean much to Steelers coach Mike Tomlin, who benched Claypoolin the first quarter after he and was flagged for a 15-yard penalty. When asked whether he thought the benching sent a me sage to Claypool, Tomlin said, "We'll see."Tomlin admits that he benched Claypool for a Rodney Mcleod Jr. Jersey while tonight after his 1st-quarter unnece sary roughne s penalty. It certainly worked wonders. Funhouse (@BackAftaThis) After watching the replay of Claypool's celebration, will Tomlin feel the need to send a stronger me sage to his young wideout?

With the first Sunday of the 2022 NFL season on the horizon, fantasy football owners are preparing to set their lineups for Week 1. Knowing the latest injury updates will affect those decisions, especially on key players JK Dobbins, Kenneth Walker III, and George Kittle. All look "questionable," at best, for Sunday, and their potential absences will have big ramifications on Week 1 rankings and start 'em, sit 'em decisions.Below, we'll give you the latest news on these three players and break down how their injuries could potentially affect the Week 1 fantasy rankings. For injury news Nick Bolton Jersey on banged-up WRsDrake London,Michael Thomas,Allen Lazard, andJaylen Waddle,.DOMINATE YOUR DRAFT: Ravens head coach John Harbaugh told reporters on Wednesday that Dobbins (knee) is "ascending quickly," in his quest to be ready for Week 1 against the Jets, .It would be a mild surprise to see Dobbins play on Sunday against the Jets, as he is working his way back from a torn ACL he suffered last summer. late last month that Dobbins' Week 1 status is "certainly in doubt. D.j. Miller Jr. Jersey " If Harbaugh decides to hold Dobbins out for Week 1, the Ravens will roll with the running back tandem of Mike Davis and Kenyan Drake. The veteran running backs are an upgrade from what the Ravens had last season in the backfield (Le'Veon Bell, Devonta Freeman, and Latavius Murray), but it's tough to say if either should start as an RB2 in fantasy lineups for Week 1. Consider them low-end flexes. If Dobbins is out there, consider him the same, as it's unclear just how many carries he'll get in a game the Ravens should win comfortably.WEEK 1 FANTASY PPR RANKINGS: | | | | | Walker (hernia) was among the multiple players that did not practice on Tuesday, . Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll Walker was feeling better following his hernia surgery, but he was non-committal on whether the rookie would play in the season opener against Denver.The good news for the Seahawks is that they don't have to decide on Walker's status for Donovan Smith Jersey Week 1 until Monday night. However, if the rookie running back does not practice during the week, he's going to be inactive. Rashaad Penny will likely dominate carries either way, with Travis Homer serving as Seattle's No. 2. Penny showed last season when healthy that he could be productive, making him a solid RB2 play for Week 1. For now, consider Walker a stash for later in the year after Penny's inevitable injury.WEEK 1 STANDARD FANTASY RANKINGS: | | | | | Kittle (groin) did not practice on Wednesday after suffering an injury earlier this week, . 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that Kittle was "hoping Travis Kelce Jersey to be good today," but they will take it day by day.WEEK 1 DFS LINEUPS: | | If Kittle cannot play Sunday, it would be a significant lo s for the 49ers' offense. When healthy, Kittle is one of the top tight ends in the league. We should expect to see an increase in targets for receivers Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk. We should also see more snaps for backup tight ends Ro s Dwelley and Charlie Woerner, but neither would not be worth starting in fantasy. Samuel is a lock at WR1, while Aiyuk could move up to WR2 in many lineups without Kittle on the field. Meanwhile, secondary receivers Juaun Jennings, Dustin Crum Jersey Danny Gray, and Ray-Ray McCloud have a little more value as DFS dart-throws in tournaments.

With many questions surrounding the roster, the could look to Ted Karras Jersey make a significant move in free agency ahead of training camp.One of the biggest concerns on the roster comes at the safety position. Though the Giants used a , the rest of the safety room is likely playing on borrowed time in the NFL.With some newfound salary-cap space following the retirement of tight end Darren Waller, the Giants technically have the means Jake Fisher Jersey to make one final addition to the secondary.How feasible that move would be is another question entirely, but the (+400) to sign former Denver Broncos safety Justin Simmons, according to BetOnline.Other teams listed behind the Giants include the Philadelphia Eagles (+600), Buffalo Bills (+800) and San Francisco 49ers (+900).Simmons is a two-time Pro Bowl safety and is coming off a 2023 season in which he earned the honor. He was released by the Broncos this offseason due to cap constraints.The safety market in free agency has been pretty depleted so it makes sense that Simmons has exercised patience, but the time is coming Jeremy Hill Jersey with training camp arriving in two weeks.Simmons would be an ideal fit for the Giants to work alongside Nubin. Even if for one season, Simmons could fill the Sheldon Rankins Jersey role currently held by Jason Pinnock, who would be a fantastic No. 3 safety.Making it work financially would be difficult for the Giants, though. Over The Cap estimates the Giants have roughly $11.5 million in cap space, the 10th-fewest in the NFL.The extension Simmons signed in 2021 included an average annual value of $15.2 million. He's likely not getting that, but the top-13 safeties in the NFL all have double-digit AAV.It would be a fun addition to Shane Bowen's defense, but it's unlikely a move that will be made before training Joe Mixon Jersey camp unle s Simmons' price drops dramatically.

Fulham have earned a reputation of a yo-yo club over the Daniel Faalele Jersey past few years after alternating between the Premier League and Championship acro s the last five seasons.After securing top-flight promotion via the famous play-offs in 2019/20, the Cottagers experienced a thoroughly underwhelming 2020/22 season in the Premier League.Led by Scott Parker, Fulham suffered relegation from Englands elite competition, having won the leagues joint-fewest five matches in their most recent Premier League campaign.However, the Craven Cottage is on the verge of hosting top-flight matches again next term as Marco Silvas men are galloping towards another promotion.Inspired by Aleksandar Mitrovics record-breaking Championship exploits, Fulham go into the season finale as , having accrued 77 points from 37 outings.With third-place Luton Town lagging a whopping 14 points behind, the Cottagers return to the Premier League looks like a near-certainty with left to go.Yet, after proving more than capable of earning promotions to Englands top-flight, Fulham will face an uphill task to Jaylon Ferguson Jersey maintain their Premier League status next season.That has often proved unachievable for the London outfit in recent years.So what should they do to avoid another disappointment?#1 Mitrovic has to stayAfter finishing as the Championship top-scorer in 2019/20, Mitrovic found himself relegated to playing second fiddle to Ivan Cavaleiro in Fulhams most recent Premier League participation.That did not pan out well for Parkers side as they finished the season as the second-worst attacking side in the league, having netted a measly average of 0.71 goals per game.Fast forward one season, Mitrovic has shattered Ivan Toneys record of 31 goals scored in a single Championship campaign.It has taken the Serbia international only 32 league appearances to rack up 33 goals and set a new milestone in Englands second-tier.Mitrovic has since added two more goals to his eye-catching tally to cement his status as an elite striker in the Championship.With under his belt, the 27-year-old has been directly involved in 47% of Fulhams league goals this season.#2 Fulham have to replace outgoing Fabio Carvalho with another top-cla s playerFabio Carvalho has been a Seth Roberts Jersey revelation this Championship season, building a reputation of a whizz-kid, courtesy of his jaw-dropping performances at Craven Cottage.Despite his relatively young age, the 18-year-old has been one of Fulhams most consistent performers this season, tallying seven goals and six a sists in league action thus far.Apart from his decent attacking output, Carvalhos ability to drift past opposition defenders and create spaces for his teammates has been off the charts.The youngsters blistering pace and dazzling feet have dominated this season. Carvalho has attracted attention from several Premier League sides, including Liverpool, who were on the cusp of landing his signature in January.With his contract running out in Ja'mion Franklin Jersey the summer, Fulham will be powerle s to stop him from leaving this time around, with AC Milan now in the driving seat to capture his services.Carvalhos imminent departure will leave the Cottagers short of options in the attacking department, which is likely to force the club chiefs to dig into their pockets for reinforcements.#3 Backline has to stay as compact as this yearMitrovic has not been the only shining light at Fulham this season as their defence remains one of the key reasons they are on course to return to the Premier League.Only second-placed Bournemouth (31) have conceded fewer goals in the Championship this season than the Cottagers (32).Silvas men have shipped 2+ goals in a league-low six Championship games this season, establishing themselves as one of the toughest teams to break in the division.Tosin Adarabioyo and Tim Ream have forged a formidable defensive partnership in front of Marek Rodaks goals, with Kenny Tete and Antonee Robinson providing further cover from the flanks.But Ream will turn 35 next season, meaning Fulham would likely have to add another Robert Griffin III Jersey centre-back in the summer to allow the USMNT veteran to manage his playing time more carefully in 2022/23.Adarabioyo, 24, has developed into a reliable defender this season, and the Cottagers have every intention to build their backline around him for years to come.

As the NFL and encouraging peaceful player protests, there's been renewed talk about the po sibility Rick Barry Jersey of returning to the league. Former coach Hue Jackson the former quarterback back in 2017. coach Pete Carroll is from teams inquiring about Kaepernick. And now Doug Williams, who just this offseason , has explained why his own team didn't pursue Kaepernick in years past., Williams was asked whether Washington had ever considered signing Kaepernick, and he indicated the avoided the po sibility because of the team's proximity to Washington, D.C. -- specifically, a president of the United States who explicitly and repeatedly condemned Kaepernick's famous on-field kneeling during the national anthem."I Jeremy Lin Jersey think what happened here, we're in a heavily, heavily military area," said Williams, the team's senior VP of player development.

(it) might've been a tough situation for both the team and (Kaepernick) .. Stephen Curry Jersey . You don't want to bring people into a situation where nobody is going to be happy. I think that's probably what happened, why he didn't come up during that time."Washington was in the market for a QB in 2018, Kaepernick's first year completely out of the NFL, but ultimately traded for Alex Smith, Kaepernick's former 49ers teammate, to replace Kirk Cousins.

One of the most prolific pa sing combinations in FBS history Daryl Worley Jersey had its Senior Night spoiled Thursday as UCF hit a "Hail Mary" to beat East Carolina, 32-30. ECU senior quarterback Shane Carden, considered a po sible third-day draft pick (Rounds 4-7), threw for 397 yards and three touchdowns, giving him 4,309 yards -- the second-highest figure nationally -- and 28 touchdown pa ses this season. Pirates senior Justin Hardy, a potential second-day pick (Rounds 2-3) who already was the leading career receiver in FBS history, had 12 receptions for 140 yards and a touchdown; that gives him 376 career receptions with Kyron Johnson Jersey a bowl game remaining. In addition, he has caught at least two pa ses in 48 consecutive games. But their big night was overshadowed by the improbable ending, with UCF's Justin Holman unleashing a 51-yard touchdown pa s that was caught by Breshad Perriman -- who had gotten behind two ECU defenders -- on the final play. Perriman, the son of former NFL wide receiver Brett Perriman, was unimpeded on his way into the end zone, and neither ECU player was able to get a hand on the pa s. <content:video-partner-embed></content:video-partner-embed> </content:video-partner-embed>UCF led, 26-9, entering the fourth quarter, but ECU rallied and Mikel Jones Jersey took a 30-26 lead on a 13-yard TD pa s from Carden to Hardy with 2:17 left. Then things really got wild. After UCF went four-and-out on its next drive, the Pirates took over on UCF's 15 with 1:47 remaining. UCF had only one timeout left, and after two ECU kneeldowns, UCF took its timeout with 1:02 left. Carden then lost 4 yards on a run, LeShaun Sims Jersey and ECU let the clock run before taking a timeout with 16 seconds left. On fourth down, Carden lost 11 yards on a run and UCF regained Will Compton Jersey the ball at its 35 with 10 seconds left. A quick completion on an out pattern put the ball at UCF's 49, setting up the final play. UCF finishes the regular season 9-3 and with a portion of the AAC title along with Memphis. Cincinnati can grab a share of the title, too, if it beats Houston on Saturday. ECU finishes 8-4. Mike Huguenin can be reached at mike.huguenin@nfl.com. You also can follow him on Twitter .

The Kansas City Chiefs weren't the only winners on Super Bowl Sunday and Phil Simms Jersey that's because the sportsbooks in Nevada also came away as big winners after the Chiefs' 31-20 win over the 49ers.Led by sportsbooks in Las Vegas, the state of Nevada pulled in its second-largest Super Bowl win ever, according to numbers released this week . On a day where bettors wagered a total of $154.7 million at sportsbooks around the state, the house walked away with a collective profit of $18.7 million.There's a reason they say "the house always wins," and that's because the house always wins.The $18.7 million take was the second-biggest Super Bowl win ever for casinos in Nevada, surpa sed only by the $19.7 million that sportsbooks around the state collectively won in February 2014 when the Seahawks beat the Broncos 43-8 in Super Bowl XLVIII Cody Latimer Jersey .The $154.7 million handle for 49ers-Chiefs was the second-highest collective total ever wagered on a Super Bowl in the state of Nevada. The only other Super Bowl with a higher number came in February 2018 when bettors wagered a total of $158.6 million on the game between the Eagles-Patriots in Super Bowl LI. Although that game had the highest betting total, sportsbooks only walked away with a $1.2 million profit that year.One reason Nevada was so succe sful this year is because of its proximity to San Francisco. Caesars Entertainment sportsbook director Bill Sattlertold the Las Vegas Review-Journal that Niners fans were flocking to Nevada, especially casinos in the northern part of the state, to place money line bets on their hometown Aaron Robinson Jersey team."It was our best scenario," Sattler said. "We were real heavy on the Niners money line and a lot of it was from Lake Tahoe."Tahoe is just a three-and-a-half hour drive from the Bay Area, making it an easy place to gamble for 49ers fans who wanted to bet on the game.The other reason Vegas did well is because the under hit. The over/under opened at 52.5 before by eager bettors who thought we might see a shootout in the Super Bowl. The over was a popular bet that ended up losing, as the game total hit just 51 points.Vegas also won when Patrick Mahomes decided to get a little crazy with his kneel downs. The Chiefs quarterback lost 15 yards on Kansas City's final three plays of the game, which brought his rushing total down to 29 yards Jashaun Corbin Jersey for the game. That was a big deal that Mahomes would rush for more than 30 yards in the game, which is a number he had hit easily before the three kneel downs."That was close to a six-figure swing in favor of the house ," Jeff Davis, director of Benton Whitley Jersey trading for Caesars,.Although it might seem like the house always wins, there was one time when it did lose. Since 2000, the sportsbooks in Nevada have lost money on just one Super Bowl, and that came more than a decade ago. Back in February 2008, Nevada when the 12-point underdog New York Giants upset the undefeated Patriots in Super Bowl XLII.The succe s in Nevada this year didn't translate to other parts of the country. Sportsbooks in New Jersey lost on Super Bowl Sunday.

ESPN's Mike Triplett noted that space puts them in a position to be able to afford Deshaun Watson's $35 million deal by either trading another player in a potential Watson deal or by adjusting Watson's salary into a signing bonus.This would give Saints nearly enough room to fit Deshaun Watson's $35M salary-cap figure if they complete a trade -- especially if they add a player salary into that deal as compensation.They could later adjust Watson's camp figure by converting his salary into a signing bonus.
