The Seattle Seahawks may have Wednesday off from training camp practice, but they're busy looking at possible roster additions.
Former Dallas Cowboys safety Donovan Wilson is slated for a workout with Seattle, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. It could be yet another former Cowboys defensive player reuniting with current Seahawks defensive coordinator Aden Durde.
Wilson was drafted by the Cowboys in 2019 and started in five of his seven seasons with the team. He recorded 13 sacks, nine forced fumbles, and eight interceptions in his career, including (barring an un-retirement) the final interception of Russell Wilson's career.
When Dan Quinn was the defensive coordinator, Wilson as among the three safeties in Quinn's "big nickel" package, and his best season came in 2022 when he had a career-high five sacks and seven tackles for loss, earning him a three-year contract extension.
The Seahawks are currently without Nick Emmanwori, whose recent ankle surgery landed him on the PUP list. His status for Week 1 is unclear but it's not expected to be a long-term absence. In the meantime, the 30-year-old Wilson would be a possible veteran presence with a legitimate shot to make the roster. We'll see if the workout turns into an eventual signing.

It's that time of the year again when the gaming community and NFL players at large react to the ratings in a video game. Madden NFL 27 will be available for purchase on Aug. 13 (early access available Aug. 6 and Aug. 10) and EA Sports revealed the top 10 quarterbacks in this year's game on July 29.
Only two quarterbacks hit the headline 99 ratings in 2026: Matthew Stafford, the league's reigning Most Valuable Player, and Buffalo Bills signal-caller Josh Allen, who won the MVP award in 2025. Four others, Los Angeles Rams defensive end Myles Garrett, Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase, Seattle Seahawks wide receiverJaxon Smith-Njigba and Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride, were also rated 99 overall.
In this case, someone has to have the worst rating amongst the most important position in football, and that belongs to Baltimore Ravens backup Joe ******* nano, who has a 59 overall rating among the top-10 quarterbacks and rookie signal callers listed.
Here's a look at the top-rated signal callers in the league, according to the upcoming game's preseason ratings:
Matthew Stafford, Los Angeles Rams: 99

Indiana Fever fans have long admired Caitlin Clark and Flau'jae Johnson's relationship. Clark and Johnson have maintained their dynamic despite their battles in college. On Tuesday, Clark's gesture towards Johnson after the Indiana Fever's 105-95 win against the Seattle Storm won everyone's hearts.
The superstar guard seemingly asked Johnson to keep her chin up after a rough game. The rookie finished with 16 points, but shot a measly 26.7% from the field and was 0-for-6 from long distance. Johnson's night also wrapped up slightly early after she committed her sixth foul on Clark with 1:15 left in the game.
Here's the video of Clark and Johnson's postgame embrace:
After seeing Clark's gesture, several Fever fans dropped heartfelt comments on her relationship with Johnson.
"You shoulda been a fever four I'm sorry, I'll never forgive you Amber," one fan said.

Mauricio Pochettino contract, salary with USMNT: What we know about coach's new deal through 2030 World Cup originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The United States men achieved a respectable but not exceptional result at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, eliminated in the Round of 16 at the hands of Belgium as they were pummeled 4-1 in Seattle.
At the tournament on home soil, the group was led by Mauricio Pochettino, whose coaching experience and leadership were expected to help elevate the profile of the USMNT throughout his time in charge, and he was paid handsomely for such talents.
While it didn't quite translate to tangible growth at the World Cup, the USMNT has still made strides under Pochettino from a federation standpoint.
It now appears likely that U.S. Soccer has convinced Pochettino to stay long-term, warding off interest from the club level and other national teams to keep him around as the focus turns to the next four-year cycle, finishing with the 2030 FIFA World Cup in Spain, Portugal, and Morocco.

Kelsey Plum's two-season tenure with the Los Angeles Sparks is likely coming to an end, per LA Times reporter Marisa Ingemi. Ingemi reported that the Sparks will most likely trade Plum by Sunday's midseason trade deadline, and that they've gotten interest from across the league.
Plum is in the midst of a historic offensive season, albeit an injury-riddled one. She's averaging 23.9 points and 6.4 **** ists, while shooting 52.7% from the field. All of those numbers are career highs. She's also shooting 38.3% from three, her highest mark since 2023. But she's appeared in just 12 of 27 games as she's dealt with an ankle and a lower leg injury. The Sparks are currently out of the playoff mix, holding a 10-17 record and losers of 6 straight games.
Plum signed a one-year, $999,999 contract ahead of the season, after being traded to LA from Las Vegas in a three-team trade that saw the Seattle Storm get the No. 2 pick (and Li Yueru), and Las Vegas acquire Jewell Loyd. While Plum has individually excelled since arriving in Los Angeles, the team missed out on the playoffs in Year 1 and appears on track to do so again.

In Tuesday night's Indiana Fever win over the Seattle Storm, Caitlin Clark was on one. Clark tallied 32 points on 9-14 shooting to go along with 7 ****** ists and 4 rebounds, and the Fever improved to 18-10 on the season.
Amid the usual litany of off-court storylines, it's been a superb on-court season for the Fever star.
Clark is averaging 21.5 points per game, the third-most in the league, and 7.9 ****** ists per game, the second-most in the league. (In other words, no single player creates more on offense than she does).
She's also quietly upped her efficiency — in her rookie season (in which she was named to the All-WNBA First Team), she shot 41.7% from the field and 34.4% from three. In her sophomore season (in which she appeared in just 13 games due to a myriad of injuries), she shot worse, hitting 36.7% of her shot attempts and 27.9% of her threes.
And, this year, she's shooting 44.3% from the field and 35.4% from three, both career-highs. While turnovers continue to be an Achilles heel, she's averaging fewer per game this year (4.7) than in her rookie campaign (5.6).

Sky Sports Deutschland claim that Juventus have agreed a €33m plus €7m add-ons deal with Bayer Leverkusen for Kerim Alajbegovic, who had been linked with Chelsea, Milan, Roma and Atalanta.
The remarkable report was announced this afternoon by reporter Patrick Berger, then Fabrizio Romano also confirmed there were advanced negotiations.

It is quite the twist in the transfer tale for the Bosnia and Herzegovina international, who had spent most of the summer attracting attention from clubs, but none who were prepared to meet the €35m plus bonus asking price.

Stephanie White provides encouraging Aliyah Boston injury update after Fever win originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Aliyah Boston's night ended much earlier than expected Tuesday, but Indiana Fever coach Stephanie White offered an encouraging update after her team's 105-95 victory over the Seattle Storm.
Boston exited during the second quarter after tripping over Storm rookie Flau'jae Johnson and crashing knee-first into the court at Climate Pledge Arena. The four-time WNBA All-Star immediately winced in pain and needed help getting back to her feet before heading to the locker room. The Fever initially listed Boston as questionable to return, but she remained on the sideline throughout the second half.
White later suggested that Indiana held Boston out as a precaution, rather than because the center had been definitively ruled incapable of returning.
"No update other than, you know, wasn't really worth the risk for us in the second half," White told reporters. "Just want to be very conservative and make sure that she's good to go."

The Indiana Fever said neither the team nor Sophie Cunningham were aware of the "Support Sophie Cunningham" rally held outside Climate Pledge Arena ahead of their game Tuesday against the Seattle Storm. The event was held in support of the Fever guard's recent comments regarding transgender athletes in girls' and women's sports.
"Neither our organization nor Sophie had any knowledge of this demonstration and no contact with its organizers," a statement from the Fever reads. "Our only goal as a team, whether at home or away, is to win basketball games and make Fever fans for life, and we are united in that mission."
The event was organized by Women are Real, Brandi Kruse and Known Heretic, and comes after Cunningham said in an ESPN profile that she wanted to protect young girls in locker rooms and in sport who "shouldn't have to go against biological men."
She reinforced those beliefs ahead of last week's game vs. the Connecticut Sun.
"It's kind of common sense, and I think I'll always believe in that," Cunningham said. "I think it's really important to protect children, and that's little girls who are also involved in that category. So I stand on what I said, and I'll always believe that."

In the definition of a back-and-forth battle, the Mariners outslugged the Dodgers with a season-high five home runs in a 7-6 loss for the reigning champs. Neither team seemed capable of holding onto a lead for any meaningful period until the Mariners jumped in front in the eighth thanks to a two-run shot from Dominic Canzone, his second and Seattle's fifth homer of the game.
As different as the seasons of the two starting pitchers in this matchup might be, for one game, they both encountered the same problem, completely allergic to the prospect of a shutdown inning. On four separate occasions, a team took the lead in the first five innings only to see its starter unable to put a zero on the board in the following half-inning.
Justin Wrobleski has thrived this season with the ability to raise his level according to the situation, but what does he do when the opposition ambushes him? The Mariners managed to score five runs off the left-hander without even having a single at-bat with a runner in scoring position against him—courtesy of not two, not three, but four home runs against a pitcher who had allowed a total of three long ****** prior to this game. Cal Raleigh, Julio Rodríguez, Rob Refsnyder, and Dominic Canzone all left the yard. While the homers hit by Rodríguez and Raleigh could be categorized as mistake pitches, the ones by Canzone and Refsnyder came on well-located fastballs at or well above the strike zone—it stands to reason that Wrobleski's heater didn't have the same life on it, or that the M's guessed right on multiple occasions.
For the Dodgers' offense against Castillo, it was an eventful game from start to finish, but one that could've been more dominant. The M's veteran starter allowed a leadoff bomb to Shohei Ohtani and had to deal with trouble in some form or another for his entire outing.

The Indiana Fever defeated the Seattle Storm 105-95 on Tuesday night in the first night of regular-season action for the WNBA after the All-Star break. However, instead of the Fever's three-game winning streak entering the game, a lot of the coverage surrounding the Fever was on comments reserve guard Sophie Cunningham made regarding transgender athletes.
"I got a lot of negative feedback about me hating trans. And I'm like, 'I never once said that,'" Cunningham said via a profile on her published by ESPN. "I think that I am here to extend love. But I also think with that love is truth, being honest. And I want to protect young girls in a locker room, or young girls in sport who shouldn't have to go against biological men."
Cunningham's words became a hot-topic issue, with people weighing in from all over the media, intense debates being had online, and even rallies being planned.
After the game, WNBA reporter Roberta Rodrigues, who rebuked Cunningham's comments and the rally tied to them on social media, asked head coach Stephanie White, who is married to journalist Lisa Salters, about the situation.
"Coach, there was a rally before the game, an anti-trans rally before the game, inspired by Sophie Cunningham," Rodrigues started. "As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, how did you receive her comments and the way it ignited the right-wing and anti-trans supporters? And for the players, have you had conversations in the locker room about it?"

WNBA makes final decision on Caitlin Clark technical foul appeal originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Caitlin Clark will have to remain on her best behavior for the rest of the WNBA regular season.
The Indiana Fever appealed the technical foul Clark received during their 123-88 victory over the Connecticut Sun on July 22, hoping the league would remove it from her season total. However, the WNBA reportedly denied that appeal, leaving Clark with seven technical fouls and only one more separating her from an automatic one-game suspension.
"The WNBA will not rescind the technical foul ****** sed to Caitlin Clark during last Wednesday's win over the Connecticut Sun, a league source confirmed to IndyStar," Brian Haenchen of the Indianapolis Star reported.
Clark avoided another technical during Indiana's 103-93 win over the Seattle Storm on Tuesday. Still, the league's decision means the threat of a suspension will follow the Fever star into every remaining game of the regular season.

Aliyah Boston injury update: Fever star exits Storm game after frightening fall originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Aliyah Boston's strong start against the Seattle Storm came to a sudden and concerning end Tuesday night.
The Indiana Fever center left the game during the second quarter after crashing hard to the floor at Climate Pledge Arena. Boston landed directly on her right knee and immediately reached for the injured area as teammates and members of Indiana's training staff rushed over to check on her.
Boston was eventually helped to her feet and taken to the locker room. Although the Fever initially listed her as questionable to return, she did not check back into Indiana's 103-93 victory. The scene was especially troubling because Boston has already battled a lower right leg injury this season. She played only five minutes in Saturday's WNBA All-Star Game, giving her additional time to rest before the Fever resumed their regular-season schedule.
Boston was injured midway through the second quarter while running a pick-and-roll with Caitlin Clark. After setting a screen, Boston rolled toward the basket and appeared to get tangled up with Storm rookie Flau'jae Johnson. Her momentum carried her forward, and her right knee absorbed much of the impact when she hit the court.

The Indiana Fever center left the game during the second quarter after crashing hard to the floor at Climate Pledge Arena. Boston landed directly on her right knee and immediately reached for the injured area as teammates and members of Indiana's training staff rushed over to check on her.
Boston was eventually helped to her feet and taken to the locker room. Although the Fever initially listed her as questionable to return, she did not check back into Indiana's 103-93 victory. The scene was especially troubling because Boston has already battled a lower right leg injury this season. She played only five minutes in Saturday's WNBA All-Star Game, giving her additional time to rest before the Fever resumed their regular-season schedule.
Boston was injured midway through the second quarter while running a pick-and-roll with Caitlin Clark. After setting a screen, Boston rolled toward the basket and appeared to get tangled up with Storm rookie Flau'jae Johnson. Her momentum carried her forward, and her right knee absorbed much of the impact when she hit the court.

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS - JULY 23: Paige Bueckers #5 of the Dallas Wings arrives at the Orange Carpet as a part of the 2026 AT&T WNBA All-Star Weekend at McCormick Place on July 23, 2026 in Chicago, Illinois.

The beauty of a five-month-long basketball season is that it leaves room for pauses – a mid-season exhale, even. For the WNBA, it arrives in the form of All-Star Weekend. It's a moment when the league's best fans come together to vote on who and what they want to see, creating a weekend built around the All-Star Game, the 3-Point Contest, and a series of, what's supposed to be, lighthearted challenges. Unless you caught any part of the Stud Budz livestream, then it was more like a weekend-bender partying with a little side of hoops.
Although the weekend is centered around basketball and partying, the main event has quietly become fashion. Players have shown up ready to make statements, debut new looks, new partnerships with stylists and, yes, occasionally hard-launch new relationships along the way. This year, more than ever, it felt like stylists were part of the equation, helping players hone in and polish their sense of style. The influence and emblem of basketball was everywhere, whether through stitched motifs, graphic details, or the written across letterman jackets, cargo pants, and t-shirts.
Custom pieces were also trending this red-carpet, with more masculine, blinged-out, and colorful suits were the center of the carpet. Along with this, we saw sleek monochromatic moments. Ombré became one of the defining looks of the weekend, especially as the All-Star Game warm-up uniforms echoed the same gradient effect. From the orange carpet to the after-parties, everyone embraced the chance to have a little fun—and we rounded up the best fits from the weekend below.

The NFLPA's P.R. push for grass fields should focus less on making a broad-brush effort to shame the owners into choosing a better surface and more on getting specific teams to flip. That effort, as previously explained, should start with the Seahawks, who are in the process of getting a new owner.
On Tuesday, a pair of Seattle veterans made the case for grass during training-camp press conferences.
Defensive lineman Leonard Williams was asked whether seeing temporary grass at Lumen Field for the World Cup made him wish the grass would remain permanently.
"For sure," Williams told reporters, "I think the whole NFL felt that way. We obviously prefer to be on grass. It's less impact, better on the body. I understand there's a lot of things that go into having grass in the stadium that I don't fully understand yet, but if it was up to a player and it just came down to grass or turf, we obviously prefer grass."
Receiver Cooper Kupp was initially more concise. "That would be sweet," he said with a laugh.

Former Ohio State and current Cleveland Browns defensive back Denzel Ward just got paid. He became the highest-paid DB back in 2022 with a five-year extension worth $100.5 million. That was eventually eclipsed, but with the news of Ward signing a two-year extension reportedly worth $62.2 million ($52.3 million guaranteed), he has reclaimed that distinction once again. The news was first reported by ESPN's Adam Schefter.
After a distinguished career at Ohio State, where he was a consensus All-American and first-team All-Big Ten selection in 2017, Ward was selected by the Browns in the 2018 NFL draft with the No. 4 pick. That draft selection has paid off well for Cleveland. Not only did Ward make the PFWA All-Rookie team and has also been selected to five Pro Bowls.
During his 110-game career, Ward has racked up 361 tackles, 104 pass breakups, 18 interceptions and four touchdowns. He is on the shortlist as the best defensive back in the NFL.
Sources: Browns and five-time Pro-Bowl CB Denzel Ward reached agreement on a two-year, $62.2 million deal that includes $52.3 million guaranteed and makes him the highest-paid DB in NFL history for the second time in his career. Tory Dandy of Athletes First and the Browns put the… pic.twitter.com/neCq9jShmP
As a reminder, Ohio State not only sends guys to the NFL, but they eventually get paid a ton of money as some of the best players in the League. Case in point to the Ward news: former OSU and current Seattle receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba recently made news by signing a record four-year contract extension worth $168.6 million ($120 million guaranteed).

Indiana Fever center Aliyah Boston made an early exit from Tuesday's matchup against the Seattle Storm after taking a hard fall.
The incident happened with 4:56 remaining in the second quarter as the Fever led 46-31. Boston was tripped up by Seattle's Flau'jae Johnson as she cut to the basket and subsequently landed on her right knee. Boston immediately grabbed her right knee and writhed in pain on the ground as ESPN cut to commercial break.
Boston was eventually helped to her feet and walked to the locker room under her own power, although she had a visible limp. Boston, who had 11 points and two rebounds in 11 minutes, is questionable to return.

"(Aliyah Boston) is just AB. She's an All-Star. She's one of a kind. She's going to be a Hall of Famer one day, and so that is a load for all of us to try to pick up," Fever guard Sophie Cunningham said at halftime. "We're trying to keep the energy, keep the vibes high, and we're going to be OK. I think AB's going to be OK too, but we got to focus on this game. We need to get it for her."

Aliyah Boston had to be helped off the floor with an apparent right knee injury during the second quarter of Tuesday's Indiana Fever game vs. the Seattle Storm.
Boston was moving to the lane to receive a Caitlin Clark pass when she tripped over Flau'jae Johnson's foot. She appeared to land directly on her right knee and immediately grabbed at it in pain.
Players from both teams quickly surrounded Boston as the team trainer rushed out to check on her. She was helped off the floor and taken directly to the locker room.
Boston had has 11 points, two rebounds, an ***** ist and a steal through 10:38. She will likely be replaced at the 5 by a combination of Monique Billings and Makayla Timpson. Billings is off to a strong start vs. the Storm, scoring 12 points and six rebounds in 15:57.
"AB is just AB," Fever guard Sophie Cunningham said during a halftime interview with ESPN. "She's an All-Star. She's one-of-a-kind. She's gonna be a hall of famer one day.

The Seahawks' contract standoff with Leonard Williams just took a new turn originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Seattle Seahawks star defensive tackle Leonard Williams is entering the final year of his current contract, but the two-time Pro Bowler isn't letting ongoing extension talks distract him from preparing for the 2026 season.
Williams confirmed Tuesday that his representatives and the Seahawks have had preliminary discussions about a new deal, though nothing has been finalized.
"There's been a few conversations, but nothing set in stone," Williams said.
The 32-year-old veteran is in the final season of the three-year, $64.5 million contract he signed in March 2024, just months after Seattle acquired him from the New York Giants during the 2023 season. Under the Seahawks' long-standing policy, players are not eligible for contract extensions until they have one year remaining on their current deal, making Williams eligible for negotiations this offseason.

The Seattle Seahawks have a wealth of talented rushers that have played for the team and established themselves on the franchise's all-time rushing yards list.
Seahawks great Marshawn Lynch helped the team win the Super Bowl at the end of the 2013 season while former All-Pro Chris Warren had several seasons of note in Seattle.
Let's take a look at who the Seahawks' all-time leading rusher is, as well as the other players that come close.
Shaun Alexander has recorded the most rushing yards in Seahawks franchise history with 9,429 yards.
Alexander played in 119 games for Seattle from 2000-07 and went for 1,000 rushing yards five times in that span. The Kentucky native led the league in rushing yards in 2005 with 1,880.

The NBA is in expansion mode.
As well as the would-be franchises in Vegas and Seattle reportedly attracting bids of up to $10bn, commissioner Adam Silver wants the NBA to expand its horizons into Europe.
Across the Atlantic, NBA Europe franchises – and there are going to be at least 12 of them – are fetching bids of at least $500m, potentially up to and beyond $1bn.
There are kinks to iron out there, but Silver sees NBA Europe as his legacy project. One way or another, it is going to happen.
With a 2027 launch date targeted for NBA Europe, the Vegas franchise likely to launch in the 2028-29 season and Seattle soon after, it could be a very lucrative few years for the league.

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Seahawks fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.
The Seattle Seahawks don't have a starting quarterback debate right now. What a relief to finally say that after enduring "Geno Smith vs. Drew Lock and "Can Sam Howell be the guy?" in those first three post-Russell Wilson seasons. This is Sam Darnold's team until further notice.
But this week's Seahawks Reacts survey question and poll is all about second-year quarterback Jalen Milroe, whose rookie season intrigue fizzled out by Week 5 after an ill-fated option play led to a turnover. The former Alabama star was restricted to third-team offense throughout training camp and preseason, slotting in as the third-string quarterback behind Darnold and Drew Lock.
Sam Darnold's continued success lessens the quarterback worries for now, but it's still fair to wonder how Milroe's development will come along. Is he somehow going to make enough strides to be QB2 over veteran Drew Lock and his expiring contract? Or will he once again be QB3 and subject to some healthy scratches? Could he be QB3 but still feature in the offense more often? Worst case scenario (for him): Is his Seahawks tenure already in jeopardy?
Vote in the poll below! What lies ahead for Milroe entering Week 1? Note that "starting QB" is not an option because we live in the real world and it would take extraordinary circumstances for him to earn the starting spot this year.
