After briefly exiting Sunday's win over the Cleveland Browns, Jacksonville Jaguars' head coach Liam Coen fully expects wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. to be available in Week 2 against Denver -- although he may be limited during the week of upcoming practices.
"I fully imagine him being able to play this game," Coen said on Monday. "No issues, just might not be able to get hit throughout the week or something."
Thomas Jr. left the Jaguars' Week 1 win in the first half with a shoulder injury. He was initially questionable to return, but did go back into the game.
Thomas Jr. finished the game with three receptions for 40 yards.
He also sustained a shoulder injury in the Jaguars' first joint practice with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Whether or not that injury and the current one are related has not been reported.

AKRON, Ohio (AP) — Marty Whims II got to experience the joy and frustration of being the offensive coordinator for a Football Bowl Subdivision team on Saturday.
Unfortunately, it lasted for only four plays.
Akron was moving the ball on its first possession against Robert Morris when wide receiver Marcel Williams fumbled at the Colonials' 37-yard line. David Johnson recovered the ball after Tasheen Howard and Jake Lopinto forced the fumble.
"We moved the ball, got some first downs. I thought we were going to get a touchdown if we didn't fumble," Whims said shortly after his OC stint ended.
Whims got to call plays as part of Akron's "Offensive Coordinator of the Game" for its home opener. The 46-year-old Whims — a longtime season-ticket holder — graduated from Akron and is the chief financial officer for Stark Enterprises.

NEW YORK - Ben Rice's 3-for-4 night and key ABS challenge (reversing what would've been an inning-ending strikeout) set up Cody Bellinger's big three-run homer Friday.
But there was a lot more going on with Yankees' offense in that 6-4 win against the Mets.
With a deeper lineup since Aaron Judge's return, "it feels like there's a lot of places we can hurt you,'' said manager Aaron Boone, after a 13-hit attack that included another big night for Luis Garcia Jr.
Seamlessly fitting in to his new environment since last month's trade from Washington, Garcia's three hits raised his Yankee batting average to .314, with an .866 OPS in 33 games.
Naturally, there are some alterations to Saturday's Yankees lineup, against a lefty in Zac Thornton (3-5, 3.53), on a day game after a night game.

It's Week 1 of the fantasy football season, and while we're not dealing with any bye weeks yet, we're always dealing with injuries. Players you drafted a few weeks ago could be a bit banged up by this point. This will be a weekly piece where I look at readily available players to grab and drop into your lineups.
*Streamers are players who are rostered in 50% or fewer of Yahoo! leagues.
Shough and the Saints visit the Detroit Lions, where we see a big 49.5 over/under. Shough posted 18 fantasy points or more in each of his final six games last season, pretty darn good for a player rostered in only 40% of leagues this season. The Lions allowed the 9th most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks last season (18.2) and have a bad secondary, putting Shough in a good spot.
With Tua Tagovailoa potentially out for Week 1, the Falcons might get back to basics and aim for a run-heavy game. Of course, Bijan Robinson leads the way, but there's no reason for the Falcons to run him into the ground in Week 1.
It's a lower total vs. the Steelers, but a few carries and a vulture at the goal line is a path to production for Brian Robinson.

It really just feels like each series the Atlanta Braves have been in lately has been like them leaving a snake pit for a lion's den only to realize that they've stepped into a piranha's pond and escaped that just to find out that the dry land was quicksand. "I don't know how much more battle-tested we need to be," quipped Walt Weiss when he was asked by the media during Tuesday's pregame press conference about the tough schedule that the Braves have been dealing with as of late — and still have to navigate going forward.
Indeed, one of the takeaways from this patch is that the Braves will have faced some of the toughest teams that baseball currently has to offer once they eventually reach the Postseason and they should be more-than-ready to handle whatever's in front of them. With that being said, the Braves had to deal with another serious test in the form of the Tampa Bay Rays and once the smoke cleared, it was less about acing the test and more like simply doing enough to pass the test. Did Atlanta manage that? Let's get into it.
This one was competitive for two innings, as the Braves matched Junior Caminero's two-out dinger off of AJ Smith-Shawver in the first inning with a run of their own in the bottom half of that frame. The deadlock didn't last long at all, as the Rays made the third inning a long one for Smith-Shawver. AJSS was one out away from potentially putting two outs on the board against the Rays in that inning. Instead, Liam Hicks sent one flying into the Georgia night sky for a two-run shot. Smith-Shawver was one out away from keeping it at 3-1 before Victor Mesa Jr. hit a bouncer that eluded the glove of Ozzie Albies and dribbled into the infield for an RBI single that made it 4-1.
AJ Smith-Shawver was only able to make it through 3.1 innings with those four runs allowed, but credit is due to Brent Suter for going 3.2 innings while only giving up a single run while he was out there. Elieser Hernández wasn't as fortunate, as he surrendered two runs across his two innings of work and then got the DFA treatment once the next morning rolled around. It really felt like the Rays were either ****** ing and dunking or hitting moonshots, there was no in-between in this one.
Meanwhile, a nasty trend for the Braves was emerging while they were on the mound. It's not particularly shocking that Freddy Peralta ended up going six innings with just one run allowed since he'd done pretty well in two previous starts against Atlanta with the Mets. It wasn't shocking either to see the Rays bullpen clamp down on the Braves they did on Tuesday, either. What was shocking is that the Braves came out of this game with 11 batted ****** that were at least 95-mph that ended up turning into outs. Folks, that's tough!

Elversberg have two wins from two as they enjoy a dream start to their maiden Bundesliga campaign, but they will be without head coach Vincent Wagner for their Matchday 3 clash against reigning champions Bayern Munich after the DFB rejected the club's appeal following his sending off against Borussia Mönchengladbach.
A statement from the DFB read: "In its ruling, the DFB sports court stated that, according to the referee, coach Wagner had approached him from a considerable distance, even though the fourth official had previously instructed him to stop. Wagner intended to complain to the referee and confront him. This account, the sports court stated, is corroborated by the available television footage. Therefore, the sending off was a factual decision by the referee, which is generally binding on the sports court."
Additionally, the sports court found "no evidence of an obvious error by the referee". Therefore, as reported by Kicker, Wagner will only be able to watch the game from the stands.
Wagner's sending off for a second bookable offence came with two yellow cards in quick succession. The first, triggered by Hugo Bolin's goal that put Gladbach 2-1 ahead. Wagner's argument that Tim Kleindienst had put the ball out for a throw-in, which initiated the counter-attack leading up to the goal, and thus a throw-in should have been awarded to Elversberg instead. Then, Wagner attempted to speak to referee Petersen after he blew the half-time whistle but, already on a yellow for the previous complaint, was subsequently shown a second yellow card.

Western Michigan isn't blaming Big Ten officials for their decision to add a second back to the clock ahead of Michigan's Hail Mary.
Broncos head coach Lance Taylor and school president Russ Kavalhuna had a news conference Sunday afternoon to explain their school's side of Michigan's improbable 13-12 win. After the Wolverines' first Hail Mary attempt fell incomplete with seemingly no time remaining, the Big Ten's replay review officials added a second back to the clock as they determined that WMU defensive back Micah Davis jumped from out of bounds and touched the ball before time expired.
On UM's second try, Bryce Underwood hit JJ Buchanan for the game-winning touchdown.
Kavalhuna admitted Sunday that he wanted to appeal the decision in the moment, but realized that there was no way to do so. And he said that after further investigations and discussions with Big Ten commissioner Tony Pettitti and the conference's replay staff, there was a slight difference between the clock on NBC's broadcast and the official game clock used by the Big Ten.
"It is just a discrepancy," Kavalhuna said. "I would say what the viewing public see and the officials see are different. And that's clear. I will say, I've looked into this pretty closely and I used to be a federal prosecutor — I don't discern anything unfair or untoward in this process. Can the process be improved by having what the viewing public see as what the reviewing officials see? Maybe. Frankly that's not for me to decide.

Florida football officially kicks off a new era Saturday with Jon Sumrall's first game as Gators head coach.
The start of a new season – regardless of the coach – brings an excitement that's been held in a box throughout the long summer months.
But on UF campus Saturday, that excitement felt diminished. Call it the humid weather with on and off rain. Call it the late kickoff. Call it the less than marquee opponent in Florida Atlantic. Call it the holiday weekend.
Regardless, Plaza of the Americas – the hotbed of campus – looked eerily quiet three hours before kickoff.
Glenn Denning reflected that vibe. The Gainesville resident remembered when he first began tailgating on Plaza of the Americas when it stood packed with tents.

Shortly before 5 p.m. on Sept. 3, the Ohio State men's basketball program issued a press release publicly confirming the return of one of its most decorated players: Jared Sullinger, one of only three players in program history to be a first-team All-American more than once, was joining coach Jake Diebler's staff as director of player development.
The move had been in the works for a while and all but finalized during the weekend, but Sullinger kept it close to the vest. So close that, as of about three hours after the news was made public, he had not yet heard from former teammates and close friends such as Aaron Craft and David Lighty because he hadn't tipped them off.
"Honestly, ******* ody knew," he said. "I kept it under wraps for a reason. I just wanted to say ******* o world; this is the new me. I haven't gotten those text messages yet, but I'm pretty sure when I get those text messages, I'm probably going to cry like a little baby."
Whether or not tears wound up falling, Sullinger had a lot of emotions to unpack. In joining the staff, he officially announced his retirement as a player. He spent two years with the Buckeyes, five in the NBA and parts of the next nine overseas while also spending time playing for Ohio State's alumni teams in The Basketball Tournament.
After primarily playing in China in recent seasons, the decision to both stop playing and join the Ohio State staff was made with his family in mind. Sullinger and his wife, DeAnn, have three children: twins Jared. Jr. and Jemma, who will be 7 later this month, and Jaycee, who is 5.

Pablo Torre isn't the only one seeking vindication after the NBA dropped the hammer on the Los Angeles Clippers over their salary cap circumvention scheme with Kawhi Leonard. So is Stephen A. Smith.
But while Torre is taking a well-deserved victory lap for showing what is still possible in the field of sports journalism in 2026, even as a largely independent voice, Smith is basking in the glory of his own take that Kawhi Leonard is the worst superstar in the history of sports.
To each his own.
It was in October 2024 that Stephen A. Smith unleashed a rant for the ages, even by his illustrious standards, about the Clippers star. On First Take, he dubbed Leonard the worst superstar in the history of sports.

Stephen A. Smith is not known for handing out praise to Jerry Jones, which made his latest ****** sment of the Dallas Cowboys stand out. During a recent discussion on ESPN's First Take, Smith argued that Jones has done his part by ****** embling a roster capable of competing at a high level.
The longtime ****** yst went a step further, saying the Cowboys should win the NFC East. His comments shift attention away from front-office decisions and place the spotlight squarely on whether Dallas can meet the expectations attached to its talent-rich roster.
Smith opened his comments by joking that he was waiting for Dallas to suffer a "crash landing." He then explained why he believes the roster deserves more respect. Smith said he recently met Jones and came away convinced that the Cowboys owner has completed his main job.
"I think [Jerry Jones has] done his job. …" Smith said during First Take. "The Dallas Cowboys should win the NFC East!"

Former Texas tennis player Sebastian Gorzny made his debut Monday at the U.S. Open and the Longhorn advanced to the second round.
In his first round match against Belgium's Raphael Collignon, Gorzny won 3-6, 6-3, 3-6, 6-3, 7-6. They initially began Sunday but due to weather delay, they finished the four-hour match Monday.
Gorzny graduated from UT in the spring and began playing professional tennis. The Californian is ranked 731st in the world and won two matches in the wild card playoff before getting a main draw in the tournament to start it against 38th-ranked Collingnon.
The 22-year-old won a dramatic fourth set to force a fifth when he won on a double fault after five match points.

Philadelphia Eagles fans are gearing up for the 2026 NFL season.

And, if you're looking at the rest of the division this season, a chance to repeat as NFC East champs definitely comes to mind.
Nike is helping Eagles fans welcome back the best part of the year. Fans can shop the Nike Vomero 18 running shoes with a Philly theme to complete their game-day look.

Hours after Jaylen Brown was awarded the Key to the City and State by Boston's Mayor, the former Boston Celtics star sat down for a Twitch stream, where he discussed what comes next in his basketball career with the Philadelphia 76ers.
While talking about the process of moving from Boston to Philadelphia, he began discussing his expectations for 2026-27.
"I'm grateful to the city of Philadelphia already, and I haven't even been there that long. I'm grateful that they've been a warm embrace because, for me, it's all about respect. I'm a type of guy that's going to earn his respect. So all my Philly fans in the chat, send some love."
"I look forward to earning every ounce of respect from the city that I possibly can. I don't need no handouts. I don't need no special treatment, no catering, like not being somebody who the organization is always catering to or babying. I don't need none of that; I'm prepared for war," Brown said on Twitch.
"I'm prepared for everything to go right and for everything to go wrong. That's just how life is, and I'm looking forward to the whole journey… You don't get opportunities as you get older. I'm 10 years in; I'm about to be on my 11th season."

Liverpool rescued a point at Anfield, but ***** ody inside the home dressing room will be dressing this up as progress. A 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest meant more dropped points, more defensive questions and another reminder that fight alone does not win league matches.
Florian Wirtz said as much afterwards when speaking to liverpoolfc.com, and he did not waste words. "I'm very disappointed," he said. "Of course we demand from ourselves the most.
"We couldn't take the three points again, that's why I'm disappointed. We have to keep working on the things we can do better and we have to get back to winning ways."
Forest struck first through Dan Ndoye's ***** ist for Victor Munoz in the 24th minute, and Liverpool were chasing the game from there. They improved after the break and found an equaliser when Alexander Isak converted from close range in the second half.
Then came the familiar problem. Liverpool got back on terms and immediately handed Forest another opening. Morgan Gibbs-White converted from the spot to restore the visitors' lead, exposing the same defensive frailties that have cost points too often.

The Texas Rangers scored three runs but the Milwaukee Brewers scored five runs.
Remember last night's game? Well tonight's game was pretty much the same game except everyone watched it on FOX instead of no one watching it on BZZR.
Just like last night the Rangers trailed 2-0 after an inning, made no headway with producing run-scoring rallies, hit a solo home run to briefly give the illusion of competitiveness, and then saw a leaky bullpen erase all doubts in the late innings.
The main differences tonight is the Rangers actually had more than two baserunners (out-hitting the Brewers 8 to 7) and showed more fight in the late innings with Brandon Nimmo bringing Texas to within a couple of runs with a two-run home run in the eighth.
Unfortunately also like last night, the Rangers lost. They have now lost four in a row and are four games under .500 for the first time since they were 38-42 back on June 24.

Pat Bryant could be headed for a Year 2 breakout with the Denver Broncos.
Bryant (6-2, 204 pounds) finished his rookie season strong, totaling 26 receptions for 332 yards and one touchdown in his final nine games of the campaign, and he's been the talk of training camp this summer.
Broncos coach Sean Payton has been full of praise for the receiver's ability to keep his feet on the ground while making a catch. That underrated skill helps Bryant pick up yards after the catch, and it's just one of his strengths.
"[He has] consistency, he has really strong hands," Payton said. "I've said this before, if you watch tape and you're looking at it, rarely does he have to leave his feet to make a clean catch. Even if you just skip to catch it, at that moment, everyone's moving and you're kind of frozen and rarely does he do that.
"So his yards-after-catch are noticeably different because his feet are on the ground as he runs through a ball. He's smart, he's sudden, he's big. He's having a heck of a camp. You guys have seen it, and it's been consistent. He's super intelligent. It's really important to him, and I like his size."

In hopes of helping 2025 No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward take a second-year leap, the Tennessee ******* ans gave their receiving corps a much-needed makeover this offseason. That facelift included signing former New York Giants wideout Wan'Dale Robinson to a four-year, $78 million deal.
The ******* ans invested in Robinson, a Kentucky product coming off his first 1,000-yard receiving campaign.
Robinson's now being evaluated for a concussion after Chicago Bears safety Xavier Woods reportedly laid him out over the middle of the field during the teams' joint practice in Nashville on Thursday.
Following practice, a reporter began asking head coach Robert Saleh a question about the blow Robinson suffered.
"Obviously, the hit on Wan'Dale in this type of situation is," the reporter started.

ROYAL CENTER — The Pioneer volleyball team might have made history Tuesday in playing its first ever varsity match at the Pioneer Elementary School gym Tuesday.
It wasn't under ideal conditions as the junior/senior high school is currently out of commission and is being cleaned up following historic flooding two weeks ago.
But life rolls on in Panther Land and the Panthers easily dispatched of an overmatched Argos team 3-0.
For Pioneer senior setter Lois Layer, it had been since sixth grade basketball since she played a contest in the elementary gym.
"It's been a long time, like a really long time," she said. "It's just a little bit hot. It's hot in here."

Bayern Munich have extended the contracts of board member for sport Max Eberl and CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen.
Both have signed new deals running until 2029, the German champions confirmed on Tuesday evening.
"Continuity provides direction; stability brings strength: we need both to ensure FC Bayern continues to develop consistently at the very highest level," said chairman of the supervisory board Herbert Hainer.
"Especially in the dynamic competitive environment in which a top international club must forge its own path, consistency stands for a clear conviction. With Jan-Christian Dreesen, Max Eberl and Rouven Kasper, our board is ideally positioned to drive FC Bayern forward both in sporting and commercial terms and to maintain its leading position in Europe."
Dreesen joined Bayern as chief financial officer in 2013 before taking over as CEO 10 years later. He said:

They'll spot a football for a counting game in Columbia in less than 10 days.Missouri football wrapped up its fall camp work this past weekend, and the Tigers are now moving on to gameweek preparations ahead of their season-opening matchup against Arkansas-Pine Bluff on Thursday, Sept. 3, on Faurot Field.
The Tigers' two-deep is more or less set at this point. The last remaining handful of position competitions have been ironed out, and we have a good idea of which players will play the most snaps in 2026.
We're almost done with the offseason. At the time of this publishing, nine days remain until Mizzou's players — some of whom have forced their way into the rotation with strong fall camps — return to action.
Here are seven Mizzou players whose stock has gone up in the past handful of weeks:

When Liverpool came to Newcastle last August, there was utter jubilation as Rio Ngumoha scored a remarkable 100th-minute winner.
They scored late again this time around, through Dominik Szoboszlai's 99th-minute penalty, but it felt more like a sense of relief than joy as they rescued a point.
Andoni Iraola said afterwards that his side did not deserve to lose and, to their credit, they never gave up as they earned a 2-2 draw.
A defeat would have been Liverpool's first on the opening weekend since 2012-13. A draw will do wonders for their spirit, but it will certainly not mask their concerns.
"It is probably not the result you want when you come in before the game, but we definitely deserve this point and even more," Iraola told BBC Radio 5 Live.

Alejandro Balde could be set to leave Barcelona before the close of the summer transfer window following talks with his agent and the club.
According to Jijantes, Balde "will not continue" at Barcelona and "has made the decision to seek an exit after the latest talks and feelings at the club."
His agent Jorge Mendes is now said to be "working to find him a team in this final stretch of the transfer window."
Premier League side Manchester United have already been linked with Balde and may be tempted to spend again this summer after opening their campaign with a shock 2-0 defeat to newly-promoted Hull City.
Balde's decision comes after Hansi Flick was asked about the defender earlier today at his pre-match press conference.

Aug. 21—GRAND FORKS — Nicole Kopff has been coaching with the Grand Forks Red River girls cross country program for 11 years. After becoming the program's lone head coach in 2023, Kopff will guide her largest roster yet this season.
The Roughriders currently have 40 runners. It's the largest group since 2021, when the program had 42 athletes.
This year's number could grow after other fall sports cut their rosters.
"I really think we've found an identity," Kopff said. "We had two runner-up finishes at state (in 2021 and 2022), we were very, very close. ... I think that set our momentum, that we can have more girls. Girls want to work hard too, and I think the word got out.
"Because our atmosphere is so open and welcoming, we've had a lot of girls who have joined running late that have fallen in love with it and stayed. The reason we're built as big as we are is the foundation of our core values."

Liverpool boss Andoni Iraola believes his side do not have enough wingers for the start of the season - but is confident they will find a solution before the end of the transfer window.
Liverpool had a £50m bid for Brighton's Yankuba Minteh rejected earlier this week and have explored the possibility of a move for Paris St-Germain's Ibrahim Mbaye.
PSG's Bradley Barcola remains Liverpool's main target as they look to strengthen in the wide attacking areas before the transfer window concludes.
"As a manager, this is an easy one for me. I wanted the players for the first day on 13 July - everyone here and all the positions doubled with top-level players," said Iraola when asked about the transfer window.
"But you understand how the competition works, that (the) market is open and you start the competition. We have to adapt as coaches to this situation.

The Houston Texans are back in action for the start of the second preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Of course, it's the preseason and anything can happen.
Teams will often go 3-0, feel as if they've turned the corner, and then finish with a losing record. The same goes for teams that drop the first two matchups against playoff contenders but then make a run toward the Super Bowl.
For Houston, everything is about looking better than last week's results this Thursday evening in the final preseason game at Reliant Stadium.
Houston won't be at full strength. Initially, Texans coach DeMeco Ryans announced that starters who were healthy would play, but after Tuesday's joint practice in front of fans, plus the season-ending loss of second-year wideout Jayden Higgins to a torn ACL, that plan has changed.

Former ESPN anchor Sage Steele has revealed how recent Hall of Fame NBA coach Doc Rivers completely broke off personal ties with her over political differences.
Steele used to be a primary figure in ESPN's on-air programming, specifically with the NBA, for years. But since leaving ESPN in 2023, the 53-year-old media personality has soured on the NBA over different political stances.
With her opposing the NBA with conservative rhetoric over the last few years, it led to personal backlash from an NBA coach who Steele used to consider a friend, Doc Rivers.
Steele revealed on Dave Rubin's 'The Rubin Report' that her relationship with coach Doc Rivers fell apart after her open support for the Republican Party and U.S. President Donald Trump.
"I'm going to show you later the DMs from this man. Pages and pages of why I'm such an idiot to be a Republican or conservative and support Donald Trump. Out of the blue, he would send me clips, and I'm like, 'I just want to talk basketball with you' or 'How are your kids…?' Instead, it's, 'I'm so disappointed.'"
