Bears' Kyle Monangai gets discouraging injury update ahead of Seahawks clash appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Chicago Bears have a challenging **** ignment in Week 8 when they travel to the Pacific Northwest to take on the Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks Monday night. The Seahawks are coming off an impressive 20-3 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in which their defense shut down their previously unbeaten opponent.
The Bears would like all of their top weapons to be functioning at a high level in this game because the Seahawks are so strong defensively. They are the top-ranked team in the league in fewest yards allowed at 233.9 per game, and they are second to the Minnesota Vikings in points allowed at 17.9 per game.
As a result, the Bears would like running back Kyle Monangai back in the lineup. He has missed the last three games with a turf toe injury. Monangai did not practice in Thursday's session with both the turf toe injury and a thumb issue listed as the main problem areas.

Former Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin knows as much as anybody of the Cleveland Browns' long-spanning futility, and he put that past to good work on Sunday while roasting Cleveland.
Tomlin trolled Cleveland after the team's rotten season debut against the Jacksonville Jaguars, quoting a former Steelers player to sum up the franchise's misfortunes.
"In the words of my friend JuJu Smith-Schuster, the Browns is the Browns," Tomlin quipped during a Sunday NBC Sports segment.
Okay, that's pretty funny. Tomlin's first season on the sideline has gone extraordinarily well so far, and moments like this will only increase the odds he stays in NFL broadcasting for the long haul.
If you're a Cleveland fan, we're sorry for this. Maybe brighter days are ahead... eventually.

Ahead of the 2026-27 NBA season, HoopsHype is releasing rankings at every position. While Fred VanVleet was rated rather low as a point guard, Rockets star Kevin Durant was recently ranked as one of the best in his position. In a list of the top 27 small forwards in the NBA, Durant placed fifth after averaging 26 points, 5.5 rebounds, 4.8 ***** ists, 0.8 steals and 0.9 blocks in 78 appearances last season.
The Duke duo of Jayson Tatum and Cooper Flagg were ranked first and second, respectively, before the newest member of the Philadelphia 76ers (Jaylen Brown) came in at No. 3. No. 4 is a much more controversial choice, as Jalen Williams of the Oklahoma City Thunder was given the nod over Durant despite playing in just 33 contests last year. Kawhi Leonard (Raptors), Deni Avdija (Trail Blazers), Franz Wagner (Orlando Magic), Brandon Ingram (Clippers) and Brandon Miller (Hornets) rounded out the top-10.

Kansas City Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo spoke with reporters on Friday. He shared his expectations for the defense against the Denver Broncos in Week 1 and improvement goals throughout the season.
"Listen, other coaches have said it, and I feel the same. It might take the first month, that's four games. I guess we're going to have the bye (week) into it; it may take that (long) to figure out exactly," said Spagnuolo. "Now, you just hope that while you're figuring it out, you're finding a way to win some games because you don't want to be behind the eight ball after the first month, but that's real."
The Chiefs defense has done well over the last few seasons against a team's top wide receiver. In 2025, the unit held quarterbacks to under 200 yards passing per game. Spagnuolo hopes to build on that, with veterans influencing the new players.
"I think that's real, now, if you have a really, really veteran team, it might be a little bit different, but because of the way the league is with free agency and all that, it seems like we've always got some new pieces that we've got to get used to, probably more so this year," said Spagnuolo. It's going to take a little while, but it's the reason why, when we went into this game plan, we tried to shave things off because we want the guys to play as fast as they can."
Kansas City ranked in the top 10 in points allowed, giving up 19.3 points per game. They will be in for a battle on Monday Night Football against a lethal Broncos offense with their starting quarterback Bo Nix back on the field. He is confident in the defense being up for the challenge after three preseason games.

EAST RUTHERFORD - The Giants are listing star wide receiver Malik Nabers as questionable for Sunday's game against The Dallas Cowboys in the season opener for both teams.
Nabers was a full participant in practice Friday for the third consecutive day, but his status remains uncertain because of the game designation.
No other Giants player will carry an injury status into the game.
Giants coach John Harbaugh and Nabers have both indicated that this decision on when to return will be made at the player's discretion.
"The decision is the decision," Nabers said Thursday. "Everyone has to understand that, at the end of the day, it's my career. It's my body. I know when I'm able to play, and I know when I'm able to do what I want to do. So, everybody's got to live with the decision on what I want to do with my career."

With 2.5 weeks remaining in the regular season, those in the fantasy baseball playoffs should be focused on adding players with favorable schedules in the coming days. The list this week includes hitters to stream this weekend (Henry Bolte, Jeff McNeil, Colt Keith) as well as those who should be added by Monday (Ty France, Mickey Moniak, Cole Carrigg).
The same can be said on the pitching side, as those who need a weekend streamer can skip to the bottom of this article.
Ty France, 1B, Padres, 31%: France has been one of baseball's best hitters in the second half, batting .324 with a .937 OPS. Unfortunately, he remains on waivers in many leagues, as managers opt to chase an influx of exciting rookies rather than adding a boring veteran. But that should change over the weekend, as France and his teammates will open next week with four games at Coors Field against a Rockies pitching staff that ranks last in baseball with a 5.50 ERA. Managers in deeper formats could also consider Jake Cronenworth (6%), who has hit second in the lineup of late, or catcher Luis Campusano (1%), who is working as a DH often enough to keep him in the regular lineup.
Mickey Moniak, OF, Rockies, 26%: Moniak has some similarities to France, as a boring veteran who is having his productive season overshadowed by a constant stream of youngsters on the waiver wire. The 28-year-old has been terrific at home (.957 OPS) and against right-handers (.835 OPS) this season, which makes him a potential league-winner next week when the Rockies play seven games at their hitter-friendly home park, including five versus right-handed starters. Those who cannot add Moniak can consider his teammate, Cole Carrigg (15%).
Henry Bolte, OF, Athletics, 30%: Bolte is the fastest runner in baseball and has a bit of pop, which has made him the Athletics regular leadoff hitter and one of baseball's most explosive players. He is batting .320 since the beginning of August, and during September he has already accumulated four homers and five steals. Like many Athletics hitters, Bolte has fared best at his offense-inducing home park, which is where he will play this weekend. It helps that the series will come against the Mariners, who surprising rank 28th in baseball with a 5.39 ERA since the All-Star break.

Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze continued to deal with a calf injury at Thursday's practice.
The Bears listed Odunze as a limited participant for the second straight day. Odunze was injured during practice last week and was called day-to-day by head coach Ben Johnson earlier this week.
Safety Xavier Woods (groin) was added to the report as a limited participant. Left tackle Ozzy Trapilo (knee) was limited for the second straight day.
The status of all three players for Sunday's game against the Packers will be updated when injury designations are determined on Friday. The same is true for quarterback Tyson Bagent (back), who has not practiced at all this week.

Florida's 66-21 victory over Florida Atlantic was an offensive showcase for the Gators, but the same couldn't necessarily be said for the defense.
Despite the lopsided final score, Florida's defense had its share of struggles throughout the night. FAU quarterback Caden Veltkamp threw for 276 yards, while the Owls added another 120 yards on the ground.
The Gators also had trouble containing Kelby Vasin, who finished with 10 receptions for 92 yards and was a consistent, reliable target for Veltkamp.
There is plenty for Florida to clean up defensively before it faces more talented competition, but one player who consistently made his presence felt was linebacker Myles Graham. Throughout all of the defensive deficiencies, he still showed up and caused havoc against FAU, earning him defensive player of the game.
The junior finished with 10 total tackles, including four solo stops and six **** isted tackles. He also recorded half a sack and half a tackle for loss, constantly finding himself around the football.

Ball State football season got off to as tough a start as one could imagine.
Ball State took a trip to Columbus, Ohio, to take on No. 1 Ohio State in its 2026 season opener. The Buckeyes lived up to their billing as the top-ranked team in the country, dominating from start to finish on their way to a 49-3 victory over the Cardinals.
Here are three takeaways from Ball State's season-opening loss at Ohio State:
Well, they are No. 1 for a reason. Ohio State is a perennial national ****** le contender, and the Buckeyes certainly looked the part in their opener. After a three-and-out on its opening drive, the Ohio State offense was virtually unstoppable for the rest of the game, finishing with 671 total yards. Meanwhile, the defense suffocated Ball State and held the Cardinals to just three points and 165 total yards, including a third quarter where Ball State's offense totaled -7 yards.
Ohio State's offensive superstars showed out. Quarterback Julian Sayin went 21-for-25 with 320 yards and four total touchdowns (three passing, one rushing), while wide receiver Jeremiah Smith hauled in eight catches for 151 yards and two touchdowns, all in the first half. Running backs Bo Jackson and Ja'Kobi Jackson also had big games with 87 and 83 rushing yards, respectively, and one touchdown apiece.

Mary Earps is no stranger to the Women's Super League and hopes to mark her return with a match against her former club.
The new London City Lionesses goalkeeper felt it was "meant to be" that her potential debut could come against Manchester United.
During the peak of her career, she spent five seasons at United, becoming England number one and twice being named Fifa's goalkeeper of the year.
After a spell at Paris St-Germain, Earps wants to return to England on a high in Friday's season opener (19:00 BST) and will no doubt find herself in the limelight again.
"I got a nice reception at Old Trafford [in the Women's Champions League last season] and it meant a great deal to me at that time," Earps told BBC Sport.

DraftKings is available on Texans' smartphones - but not through the traditional online sportsbook that operates in states where sports betting is legal.
Founded in Massachusetts in 2012, DraftKings is a digital sports entertainment and gaming company offering products that include online sports betting, daily fantasy sports, online casino games and prediction markets.
After the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act in 2018, states were allowed to decide whether to legalize sports betting. As of 2026, 39 states and Washington, D.C., have legalized it.
Texas has not.
So how can Texans legally use DraftKings? The answer comes down to which DraftKings product they use.

Transfer Rudy Sautron was expected to have a big impact on the Tennessee men's golf program. Little did he know that it would be felt immediately.
The Nebraska transfer was stellar for the Volunteers on Tuesday, signing for 7-under 63 in the final round of the Visit Knoxville Collegiate at Fox Den Country Club to help the hosts storm from behind and claim their home opener for the second year in a row. Sautron finished second individually, teammate Jackson Herrington placed T-7, and Tennessee, down its No. 1 player in Tyler Watts due to the Walker Cup, won by four shots over Memphis.
Tennessee entered the final round trailing by six but carded an impressive 14-under performance, the best score of the final round by eight strokes. Freshman Pennson Badgett signed for a 2-under 68 while Christian Pardue also finished under par with a 69 on Tuesday, and Tennessee jumped six spots on the leaderboard to begin the 2026-27 season with a win.
Sautron was expected to be one of the biggest-impact transfers this season, and right away his addition was pivotal for Tennessee. With world No. 3 amateur Watts in Ireland, it was Sautron and Herrington, the 2025 U.S. Amateur runner-up, leading the way for the final-round charge up the leaderboard.
Chattanooga's Evan Rogers claimed medalist honors at 10 under, topping Sautron by a shot. Second-team preseason All-American Carson Bertagnole, a sophomore at North Carolina, claimed third at 8 under.

UFC lightweight champion Justin Gaethje still welcomes a fight with Conor McGregor.
Gaethje (28-5 MMA, 11-5 UFC) has been hurling insults towards McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC) for years, but a fight never materialized. Despite McGregor's injury layoff, Gaethje remained open to the fight, but McGregor returned from five years away in a welterweight bout against Max Holloway at UFC 329 in July.
He blew out his knee in the opening seconds of the fight in a TKO loss, and is expected to be sidelined for a year. Gaethje on the other hand, upset Ilia Topuria to claim the lightweight ******* le at UFC Freedom 250. Despite their opposing career trajectories, Gaethje would still take that fight.
"If it came to my table, I would entertain it, but I would doubt that," Gaethje told Sports Illustrated (h/t Freak MMA) of McGregor. "He's going through his own stuff. I don't even want to sh*t on that guy anymore. I've done it, and that doesn't work because I've tried."
Gaethje announced after his ******* le win that he won't compete again in 2026. But even if he changed his mind, he reveals he probably couldn't.

Magdeburg entertain Holstein Kiel on Sunday afternoon in 2. Bundesliga with hopes of extending their winning streak to three games in all competitions.

The Dallas Cowboys have acquired offensive tackle Broderick Jones, a 2023 first-round draft pick, from the Pittsburgh Steelers, a person with knowledge of the deal said Saturday.
The deal includes an exchange of draft picks, the person told The ***** ociated Press on condition of anonymity because neither team made any official announcements the day before NFL rosters have to be cut down to 53 players.
Pittsburgh is sending Jones and its fourth-round pick in the 2027 draft to the Cowboys, in exchange for Dallas' third- and sixth-round picks.
Jones was the 14th overall pick out of Georgia in the 2023 draft. He started 38 of the 45 games he played in three seasons with the Steelers.
The Cowboys have had nagging questions at tackle all of training camp. They need Terence Steele, going into his seventh season, to find the form from earlier in his career and for Tyler Guyton to develop as expected in his third season.

Since Purdue football kicks off their season on Friday we are now less than one week away from the start of the reason. Ryan and I have covered the schedule for the last several weeks. Drew has gone through each unit on the team. Drew has also covered every opponent on the schedule week by week. Things are going to change week after week given how many questions we have not only about this team but about the opponents. The transfer portal has changed everything and it feels like we know less and less about these teams each season while the NCAA continues to be the wild west. Regardless, there's content to be created and so I asked the staff to tell me their predictions for the 2026 Purdue football record. So, let's get to it.
Ledman:
I've looked hard at this schedule and I want to be optimistic. But there are just too many question marks for me to go with a full throated optimistic take. The offensive line has been said to be massively improved from last season where it left Ryan Browne running for his life. Has Ryan Browne improved that dramatically? Who will be the WRs? Has the defense taken multiple steps forward? I just don't have good solid answers to those questions, and we won't get answers against Indiana State. For that reason I'm stuck between 3-9 and 4-8. I'll take the leap and give them a 4-8 record thus doubling the win total for the second straight season.
Travis:
Honestly? 2-10.

There is something for everyone on the Yahoo waiver wire right now, as roster rates tend to climb slowly during the stretch run. And although this is the time of year to heavily stream players with favorable upcoming matchups, there are also a few players who have plenty of potential to become rest-of-season roster mainstays.
The good news doesn't end there, as this week's list includes a strong balance of starters, relievers and hitters. Let's dive in:
Andrew Painter, SP, Phillies, 24%: Since rejoining the Phillies on July 31, Painter has shown some significant changes to his ****** nal that should have fantasy managers excited. The former top prospect seems to have finally figured out his four-seam fastball, which he is throwing harder and inducing more vertical break. His changeup has fed off the fastball improvements to become more effective itself. The results have been excellent, including a 3.62 ERA and 1.06 WHIP across five starts.
Painter should be in most lineups for his Friday start against a weak Angels offense and can remain on rosters if that outing goes well.
J.T. Ginn, SP, Athletics, 32%: Ginn has been the Athletics' most consistent starter this season, as his respectable strikeout skills and heavy groundball lean have made him successful at home and on the road. Still, every Athletics pitcher likely prefers to work away from their hitter-friendly home park, which will be the case for Ginn twice next week, when he makes starts at offense-suppressing venues in Texas and Seattle. Managers who need to load up on starters for the final week of the fantasy regular season should add Ginn and his fellow two-start teammate, Gage Jump (13%), who has fared much better on the road (3.49 ERA) than at home (5.62 ERA).

Juventus begin their Serie A campaign under Luciano Spalletti with an away trip to newly promoted Frosinone on Sunday.The Bianconeri arrive at the season opener after a reassuring pre-season under Spalletti.
Throughout August they showed encouraging form, registering 1–0 and 2–0 wins over Chelsea and Palermo respectively. They completed their warm-up fixtures with a 2–0 victory against Juventus Next Gen. Their only setback in that period was a narrow 1–2 defeat to rivals Inter Milan.
Defensive options are limited as dependable centre-back Federico Gatti is out with an ankle problem, and young forward Jeff Ekhator is also unavailable.
Additionally, goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio has been omitted from the traveling party amid an expected move to Premier League club Bournemouth.
On the bright side, Spalletti confirmed that marquee summer recruits Guglielmo Vicario and Randal Kolo Muani are fully fit and will make their competitive debuts in the starting XI.

Pittsburgh Steelers young quarterbacks Will Howard and Drew Allar are expected to be the only QBs to play again next week against the Buffalo Bills, per Missi Matthews' pregame interview with head coach Mike McCarthy.
"We just felt this opportunity alone to play these young quarterbacks, that's the primary focus for us really coming out of the offseason program," McCarthy told Matthews. "We'd like to do it this week and probably do the same thing next week."
McCarthy revealed earlier this week that he has seen enough of Mason Rudolph. He knows what he has in the veteran.

Brazil great Ronaldinho said he hopes he can score his 300th career goal after announcing a comeback at the age of 46 at Italian third-tier side Ravenna.
Thousands of fans gathered at a city beach for an event dubbed "Ronaldinho Day", enduring rain to witness the unveiling of the former Paris St-Germain, Barcelona and AC Milan playmaker, who retired from playing in 2015.
"I'm very happy to be here with friends, we have a team that can do something good," said Ronaldinho, who will become a shareholder in the Serie C side.
"Will you see me play? I don't know, only the coach knows that. Coming back to Italy is wonderful, I'm here to help my teammates win.
"As you can see, I'm in shape, I feel good... If I could score my 300th goal, that would be even more beautiful."
