New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft told Ed Sheeran that he couldn't let Macklemore perform at Gillette Stadium over his stance on Palestine. He has now released a statement explaining why.
The new NFL season is underway, and the New England Patriots started out with a loss against the Seattle Seahawks in a Super Bowl rematch.
However, attention has quickly turned away from the court to start this week. Patriots owner Robert Kraft was named by artist Macklemore as someone who asked Ed Sheeran to not let him perform at the Gillette Stadium.
Now, Kraft has released a statement explaining his side of the issue.

The Chiefs needed 1 yard on a fourth-down play at their own 40. They got 60.
Kansas City's prize offseason acquisition, Super Bowl LX MVP Kenneth Walker, got loose around the right side after Broncos cornerback Riley Moss missed the tackle. Safety Brandon Jones was the only defender who had a chance to stop Walker after that and appeared to have the angle.
He didn't.
Walker has 16 carries for 149 yards and a touchdown in his Chiefs' debut, the second-most yards of his career. He had 23 carries for 167 yards and two touchdowns in his sixth career game, which was against the Chargers.
Walker is 4-for-4 on third-and-1 or fourth-and-1 tonight.

The Kansas City Chiefs are off to a flying start after getting star quarterback Patrick Mahomes back after his devastating knee injury.
The Chiefs close out Week 1 on NFL's Monday Night Football with an AFC West clash against the Denver Broncos. It's clear that Kansas City is thankful to have their star QB back in the mix after a strong first quarter showing.
Mahomes scrambled into the end zone for his first touchdown of the 2026 season. Meanwhile, that rushing TD eases some concerns about the three-time Super Bowl champion.
Mahomes tore his ACL and LCL late in the 2025 campaign against the Los Angeles Chargers. He's seemingly healed quickly though and gives the Chiefs a legitimate chance to compete for another ****** le.

Drew Brees went into the Pro Football Hall of Fame this summer, but he considered coming out of retirement with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line. The former New Orleans Saints quarterback explored joining the Denver Broncos ahead of January's AFC Championship Game, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported.
The conversations followed Bo Nix's fractured ankle in Denver's Jan. 17 playoff victory over the Buffalo Bills. Then-offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi and offensive **** istant Pete Carmichael, two of Brees' longtime coaches in New Orleans, contacted him about a potential return.
Brees had turned 47 just two days before Nix was injured. He wanted to test his body before committing to a comeback, but wrist discomfort during his workout ended the possibility, Schefter reported.
The initial talks happened without Sean Payton's involvement. Lombardi and Carmichael first wanted to see whether Brees was interested, and Payton didn't learn about their conversations until the offseason, according to Schefter.
Had Brees felt ready to return, Denver would've signed him and evaluated whether he or Jarrett Stidham would start, Schefter noted. One Broncos source explained to ESPN how the team viewed the possibility: "At a minimum, you sign (Brees), he's 1A or 1B. And Drew's point was: 'I know how to win a game like that.'"

The Denver Broncos were in a desperate situation entering the 2026 AFC Championship Game against the New England Patriots. With starting quarterback Bo Nix injured and missing the game, the team reportedly reached out to Hall of Famer Drew Brees to see if he was interested in what could have been one of the most surreal moments in the sport's history.
The Broncos had homefield advantage, but were dealt a cruel blow with Nix breaking his ankle late in their Divisional Round overtime win against the Buffalo Bills. Backup Jarrett Stidham started the game and in blizzard-like conditions, could only muster seven points as the Patriots won 10-7 to advance to the Super Bowl.
But what if it was one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time under center for the Broncos that day?
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the Broncos did indeed reach out to Drew Brees to gauge his interest in an improbable comeback. Considering that Sean Payton coaches the Broncos and the pairing is one of the most successful in NFL history while winning a Super Bowl with the New Orleans Saints, it's easy to see why Denver made the call. Brees and Payton are the second-winningest QB/Coach combo in NFL history, only behind Tom Brady and Bill Belichick.
Of course, there would have been one major obstacle to overcome. Drew Brees had just turned 47 and hadn't played a competitive NFL game since January 17, 2021 in a playoff loss to Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, Brees wouldn't have been alone in making an incredible return as Philip Rivers had come out of five years of retirement to play three games for the injury-plagued Indianapolis Colts. While Rivers went 0-3 as a starter, he completed 63% of his passes and threw 4 TDs to 3 INTS.

Like a majority of the rookie quarterbacks, even Patrick Mahomes had to start behind a veteran QB, who happened to be Alex Smith.
Smith moved to the Kansas City Chiefs after spending seven years in San Francisco. He had been with the team for four years at the time Mahomes was drafted.
A veteran in the league, starting Smith was the easy decision for the organization. However, he had already seen habits from Mahomes that convinced him about the QB's work ethic.
After one season of being on the bench, Mahomes was handed the reins of the team, and Smith was traded to the Washington Redskins. The rest is history, as the 30-year-old has gone on to achieve everything there is in the NFL going into Year 10.
The three-time Super Bowl champion is all set to make his return to the Chiefs lineup after recovering from an ACL/LCL injury that he suffered in December 2025.

In an early offseason move, the Kansas City Chiefs shocked the football world when they traded away former All-Pro cornerback Trent McDuffie to the Los Angeles Rams. After all, how could a Chiefs team, ostensibly in the middle of a Super Bowl window, trade away a 26-year-old cornerback entering his prime like McDuffie? Couldn't they have used him during monster matchups like their home date with the Denver Broncos on Monday night?
At face value, the move is honestly still kind of baffling from a Kansas City perspective, considering that older Chiefs veterans like Travis Kelce and Chris Jones aren't getting any younger. But as you watch the Chiefs' defense try to adjust without McDuffie, know that they did have a good reason for dealing one of their better young players.
As explained by ESPN's Nate Taylor, the Chiefs entered the 2026 offseason knowing they wanted a big draft haul so they could try to open a new Super Bowl window while their current core begins to age out of the NFL. After reviewing their best options, they eventually came to the conclusion that trading away McDuffie, a player they weren't too keen on giving a lucrative contract extension to, was their optimal path toward that goal.
I would say acquiring a first-round draft pick in 2026 (which became defensive tackle Peter Woods) and a host of other solid draft ****** ets for McDuffie was a pretty good deal for the team, with all things considered.

Travis Kelce is set to play his first game as a married man when the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Denver Broncos in a Week 1 "Monday Night Football" matchup.
The question on everyone's mind will be about whether his wife, pop star Taylor Swift, will be in attendance for the game.
Kelce and Swift were married during the NFL offseason. Their wedding was one of the events of the summer, with numerous sports figures and celebrities being in attendance for the event held July 3 at Madison Square Garden.
While the wedding soaked up much of the attention surrounding the couple over the summer, Kelce's focus will now shift toward trying to win a fourth – and perhaps final – Super Bowl with the Chiefs.
Will Swift be in attendance for her husband's game against the Broncos? Here's what to know as the Chiefs play their home opener at Arrowhead Stadium on Monday, Sept. 14.

The Detroit Lions will be without Isiah Pacheco considerably longer than originally hoped.
Dan Campbell revealed Monday that the veteran running back underwent surgery and will be "out awhile." Campbell did not specify whether the procedure addressed Pacheco's knee or back, the two injuries that derailed his first training camp in Detroit.
That is a rough turn for a player the Lions signed in March expecting him to provide a physical complement to Jahmyr Gibbs. Pacheco arrived in Detroit after four seasons with Kansas City, where he rushed for 2,537 yards and won two Super Bowls.
Pacheco initially suffered a sprained MCL during training camp. At the time, Campbell believed the Lions had avoided a major problem, something we covered when Detroit first received encouraging news on the injury.
The knee later improved, but a back issue emerged late in camp and became the larger concern. Detroit ultimately placed Pacheco on injured reserve before Week 1, guaranteeing he would miss at least the first four games.

Now that football season has returned, so has the season of tracking the sizes of the TV audiences for football games.
The first of 283 games that count in the 2026 season — a Super Bowl LX rematch between the Patriots and Seahawks — averaged 25.1 million viewers.
The good news is that the season-opening game has exceeded 25 million viewers for four straight years, matching the same run from 2013 through 2016. The bad news is that, via Manny Soloway of Awful Announcing, the number fell 12 percent from last year's 28.3 million who watched the Eagles host the Cowboys, and it was the lowest since 2022.
It's fair to wonder whether the dip had anything to do with the season starting on a Wednesday. The last Wednesday night Week 1 kickoff game happened in 2012, with the Cowboys-Giants game generating 23.9 million viewers. In contrast, the Thursday night opener the prior year, between the Saints and Packers, drew 27.2 million.
That's odd, to say the least. The Cowboys were (and still are) the Cowboys. And the Giants — in the nation's top media market — had just won the Super Bowl. It's lower number than would have been expected, and it could have had something to do with Wednesday vs. Thursday.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The Indianapolis Colts spent an entire offseason reshaping the defense.
They signed multiple free agents to beef up the defensive line. They drafted two linebackers they projected as potential starters. They waited for two promising defensive backs to get healthy after training camp injuries cost each their entire 2025 seasons.
But on Sunday, it didn't look like a new and improved unit. Instead, the Colts allowed 506 total yards and 202 yards rushing in another troubling season-opening loss.
"This is a good gut check for the entire team, every single one of us," Pro Bowl defensive tackle and team captain DeForest Buckner said after an underwhelming reintroduction in a 41-23 loss to Baltimore. "We've got to be better, including myself. We've got to be better each and every day, have a sense of urgency and move on to the Chiefs."
It's a familiar refrain for Indy fans, who have celebrated just one opening-day win in the past 13 years. And to many, this one seemed like more of a dud than the promised fresh start. They responded with a cascade of boos as they watched more of the same.

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — The Tampa Bay Buccaneers saw the best and worst of Baker Mayfield in their first season-opening loss since 2020.
Tom Brady led them to a Super Bowl ***** le that season so 0-1 isn't an insurmountable deficit.
Plus, every team in the NFC South lost on Sunday.
Mayfield lost three fumbles that led to 17 points, including one that was returned for a score in Tampa Bay's 33-27 loss to Cincinnati. He also held the ball took long at times, taking four sacks. But Mayfield had an efficient game when he wasn't giving the ball away. He completed 23 of 28 passes for 216 yards and ran for 30 yards, including a touchdown.
If Mayfield protected the ball, the outcome would've been different.

India will look to seal the three-match T20I series against Afghanistan when the two teams meet in the second match at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday.

India lead the series 1-0 after a convincing seven-wicket win in the first T20I. Afghanistan will need a much better performance to keep the series alive.
Afghanistan were in trouble early in the first T20I after losing five wickets for 43 runs inside the Power-play. Azmatullah Omarzai and Mohammad Nabi then put the innings back on track with an 83-run partnership.

Omarzai remained unbeaten on 64 off 44 **** as Afghanistan finished with 156/8. However, the total was not enough against India's strong batting line-up.

Arshdeep Singh was India's best bowler, taking 3/9. Jasprit **** rah also made an impact on his return to international cricket by picking up an early wicket. Axar Patel and Varun Chakaravarthy also took wickets as Afghanistan struggled to build momentum.
India made the chase look easy thanks to an explosive innings from Abhishek Sharma.

The left-handed opener smashed 82 off just 32 **** , hitting seven fours and seven sixes. Ishan Kishan also made a useful contribution with 42.

India reached 157/3 in only 13.4 overs to take a 1-0 lead in the series.
Afghanistan's biggest concern will be their top order.

Rahmanullah Gurbaz was dismissed for a duck in the first over of the opening T20I. Afghanistan will need their top-order batters to give the team a stronger start and provide a platform for players such as Omarzai, Nabi and Rashid Khan.

The visitors have several match-winners in their squad, including Rashid Khan, Noor Ahmad, Mujeeb Ur Rahman and Naveen-ul-Haq.

Captain Ibrahim Zadran, who is leading Afghanistan in his first series as full-time T20I captain, will hope his team can turn its individual talent into a more disciplined performance.
India also have some selection decisions to make despite their comfortable win in the first T20I.

Abhishek's 82 has strengthened his position at the top of the order, while Sanju Samson scored only 10 runs.

Ishan Kishan also scored 42, giving India another option in the batting line-up. Teenage batter Vaibhav Sooryavanshi could also be in contention after missing the first T20I.

India will also be without Harshit Rana, who has been ruled out after suffering a rectus femoris strain. Yash Thakur has joined the squad as his replacement.

A win on Tuesday will give India an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series. Afghanistan, meanwhile, need a victory to take the series into a decider.

NEW DELHI: India pacer Kranti Gaud has been fined 10 per cent of her match fee for breaching the ICC Code of Conduct during the Women's Asia Cup final against Sri Lanka in Dubai on Sunday.

Gaud was found guilty of a Level 1 breach of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel.
Gaud breached Article 2.5 of the ICC Code of Conduct, which relates to "using language, actions or gestures which disparage, or which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a batter upon his/her dismissal during an International Match."

The incident took place in the first over of Sri Lanka's innings. After dismissing opener Imesha Dulani, Gaud gestured in the direction of the pavilion.

Gaud admitted the offence and accepted the sanction proposed by Supriya Rani Das of the Emirates ICC International Panel of Match Referees. As a result, there was no need for a formal hearing.

On-field umpires Saleema Imtiaz and Shathira Jakir Jesy, third umpire Rokeya Sultana and fourth umpire Humaira Farah levelled the charge.
Along with the 10 per cent fine, one demerit point has been added to Gaud's disciplinary record.

It was her first offence in a 24-month period.

Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand and a maximum penalty of 50 per cent of a player's match fee. They can also result in one or two demerit points.
Pakistan have been fined five per cent of their match fee for maintaining a slow over-rate during their Women's Asia Cup semifinal against Sri Lanka on Friday.

G.S. Lakshmi of the Emirates ICC International Panel of Match Referees imposed the sanction after Pakistan were found to be one over short of the target after time allowances were taken into consideration.

Under Article 2.22 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which deals with minimum over-rate offences, players are fined five per cent of their match fee for every over their team fails to bowl in the allotted time.

Pakistan captain Fatima Sana pleaded guilty to the offence and accepted the proposed sanction. Therefore, there was no need for a formal hearing.

On-field umpires Vrinda Rathi and Shathira Jakir Jesy, third umpire Rokeya Sultana and fourth umpire Rabab Ahsan levelled the charge.

WOODLAND HILLS, Calif.— The Los Angeles Rams entered the 2026 season with Super Bowl expectations, a star-studded roster and perhaps more overall talent than any team in the NFL.
Things didn't start so well and after their 27-7 season-opening loss to the San Francisco 49ers, one question deserves more attention: Do the Rams have enough game-breaking speed on both sides of the football?
It may seem like a strange question for a roster featuring great talents like Puka Nacua, Kyren Williams, Davante Adams, Myles Garrett and Aaron Donald. But when the Rams were unable to create explosive plays against San Francisco.
Their lack of speed and explosiveness became difficult to ignore.
The offense is built around precision, timing and physicality. Nacua remains one of the NFL's most dangerous playmakers, while Williams has proven capable of producing consistently in the running game. Adams brings Hall of Fame-caliber route running and contested-catch ability.

After struggling in the Super Bowl, the New England Patriots offense was hopeful to turn things around in its rematch with the Seattle Seahawks defense in Week 1. While the game as a whole was much more competitive, the end result was still disappointing.
The Patriots finished with just 10 points on the day, turned the ball over three times, and were plagued by some of the same issues that already haunted them back on Super Sunday. The game was there for the taking, but Drake Maye's third interception of the day sealed it in the home team's favor, which came away with a 13-10 victory over the reigning AFC champions.
In the aftermath of the loss and New England's disappointing outing, offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels found himself the subject of criticism for what was seen as a fairly conservative game plan. However, head coach Mike Vrabel defended the plan on Monday.
"I don't look at things as conservative. That's what we felt like was best against this defense," Vrabel said during an appearance on WEEI's The Greg Hill Show.
"We didn't hit some things and you have to be able to run the football against split safety defense. That's no secret. You don't play split safety defense to stop the run; they play it to not give up big plays. We tried to hit some shots down the field. We threw it to the running backs a couple times for 12 or 15 yards when they were all off there, and on the interception should have thrown it to the back again for a third time. You just can't get bored doing things right. If it's not there it's not there."

The beginning of the Washington Commanders' season is not for the weak. First, they face division opponents in the first two weeks of the season, and then they play the reigning Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks in Week 3. Both games against division opponents are on the road, too, which doesn't help anything.
On Sunday, the Commanders opened their season against the Philadelphia Eagles, and it was a difficult game to watch early on. The Commanders struggled with timing, Jayden Daniels looked uncomfortable, and Terry McLaurin was MIA. Defensively, the secondary led the team in tackles, which is concerning. Rookie Sonny Styles actually led all linebackers with four tackles (three solo), one sack, two tackles for a loss, and one quarterback hit.
They seemed to figure things out near the end of the game, but it was too little, too late, and the Commanders fell 24-22 after failing to convert a two-point attempt to tie the game. Let's take a look at the lowest and highest-graded players from the Commanders' loss, as graded by Pro Football Focus.
WR Antonio Williams (91.0)
QB Jayden Daniels (74.9)
