It looks as if Jake Bobo's fourth season with the Seattle Seahawks is already over.
The fan favorite wide receiver and special teams contributor suffered what was described as a "bad-looking leg injury" during Friday's joint practice with the Tennessee ****** ans in Nashville. He was carted off after awkwardly landing on a catch attempt, and barring some very favorable imaging, that will be his last action on the field this year.
"Our heart goes out to Jake Bobo," Mike Macdonald said after practice. "Seems like it's going to be a serious knee, we're going to get it imaged, but early returns—looks like it's a long-term injury. So that's unfortunate."
Bobo re-signed with the Seahawks on a two-year deal after matching the Jacksonville Jaguars' restricted free agent offer sheet. He's functioned as the fourth or fifth option at wide receiver, doing a lot of the dirty work as a blocker and in kick and punt return coverage. His NFC Championship touchdown against the Los Angeles Rams was his only score all season and it helped Seattle get to the Super Bowl.
In all likelihood, Bobo would've played the Sunday preseason game against the ****** ans, having played the first half of last week's game against the Dallas Cowboys. Unfortunately, it appears as if the next time we see Bobo will be 2027.

The San Francisco 49ers couldn't quite get out of SoFi Stadium without any injuries.
Keeping players healthy is the top priority in the preseason and head coach Kyle Shanahan had a trio of injury updates immediately following his team's 41-17 romp over the Los Angeles Chargers on Thursday.
Cornerback Renardo Green left the game early with a hamstring issue. Shanahan said the team doesn't know the extent of the damage just yet.
"We'll have to get some imaging on that tomorrow to see if he pulled it," Shanahan said.
The other key injury came to reserve offensive lineman Austen Pleasants who went down with a knee injury in the third quarter. Shanahan told reporters it isn't an ACL tear, but they'll find out exactly what the injury is after imaging Friday.

The San Francisco 49ers offensive line depth took a hit Thursday night when offensive lineman Austen Pleasants went down with an apparent knee injury midway through the third quarter.
Pleasants was pushed backward while engaged in a block and then reached for his right knee. He was holding his right knee while on the ground being attended to by trainers.
The veteran offensive lineman quickly entered the medical tent on the sidelines and was almost immediately ruled out. Being immediately ruled out instead of getting listed as questionable isn't a good sign for the nature of the injury. We should get more information from head coach Kyle Shanahan after the game, but the team may also wait to get imaging on Pleasants before making any decisions on him.
Pleasants on Thursday entered the mix for left guard. Rookie carver Willis started the game, but it was Pleasants who got the first opportunities when Willis went to the sideline. Willis was first in line after Pleasants went out.

Dave Roberts addresses Edwin Diaz concern after another rough outing originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Edwin Diaz's difficult first season with the Los Angeles Dodgers has taken another troubling turn.
The Dodgers placed their closer on the injured list Tuesday because of inflammation on the right side of his neck, adding another setback to a season in which Diaz has struggled to find the dominant form that once made him one of baseball's premier relievers.
Diaz returned to Los Angeles on Tuesday and is expected to undergo imaging to determine the severity of the injury.
"It's kind of something that he felt [Monday] night," Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. "We don't know if it's something that has been there, call it a week or whatever, but it kind of showed its head last night. So we're going to kind of address it."

#kind #edwin #tuesday

DENVER (AP) — The Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday placed scuffling closer Edwin Diaz on the injured list with inflammation in the right side of his neck while four-time MVP Shohei Ohtani progresses toward a return to the mound.
Diaz, who is 2-2 with an 11.85 ERA and seven saves in 11 opportunities in 16 games in his first season with the Dodgers, returned to Los Angeles on Tuesday and will have imaging on his neck.
"It's kind of something that he felt (Monday) night," manager Dave Roberts said. "We don't know if it's something that has been there, call it a week or whatever, but it kind of showed its head last night. So we're going to kind of address it."
Diaz was on the IL from April 20-July 29 with an elbow injury that required a procedure to remove loose bodies.
He has struggled since his return, going 1-2 with a 15.88 ERA and three blown saves in seven games. Diaz entered Monday night's win at Colorado with an 11-2 lead in the ninth and allowed three runs on four hits.

While Jets running back Breece Hall exited practice early on Monday, it doesn't sound like he suffered a significant injury.
Head coach Aaron Glenn told reporters in his press conference that Hall suffered a strained groin.
"I don't think it was a big deal, but I want to make sure I get the evaluation on that," Glenn said, via SNY. "The one good thing about our players, they're honest with their injuries. And if they can go, they can go. But we will try to be precautionary with a lot of those, to make sure that we do the right things."
Glenn added Hall will undergo imaging tests to ensure the Jets have the right answers on his injury.
Hall played in New York's first preseason game against Tampa Bay, registering four carries for 16 yards.

Varex Imaging Corporation (NASDAQ:VREX) surged 48.5% to $18.42 on August 10 after Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE:TDY) agreed to acquire the X-ray technology company for $18.90 per share in cash. The offer represents a 52% premium to Varex's unaffected closing price and values the transaction at approximately $1.1 billion, including equity awards and net debt.
Teledyne shares slipped just 0.15%, suggesting investors did not view the premium as an immediate threat to shareholder value. Varex closed about 2.5% below the offer, representing approximately 2.6% upside to the deal price. The narrow spread shifts the debate from whether Varex Imaging Corporation (NASDAQ:VREX) was undervalued to whether Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE:TDY) can earn an adequate return.
The strategic fit is visible. Varex Imaging Corporation (NASDAQ:VREX) fills specific gaps in Teledyne's imaging portfolio. Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE:TDY) has cited anticipated synergies but has not quantified them or disclosed expected EPS accretion or return targets.
Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE:TDY) is not paying primarily for Varex's current growth rate. It is acquiring technologies and customer relationships that could deepen its position across medical, security, and industrial imaging.
Varex produces X-ray tubes, flat-panel detectors, photon-counting detectors, high-voltage interconnects, and imaging software used by equipment manufacturers. These components support medical diagnostic systems, oncology equipment, cargo inspection, vehicle scanning, and industrial quality control.

Aaron Judge playing catch normally wouldn't be a big deal, just a routine part of a baseball player's day.
But Judge hasn't been able to be a baseball player since he was diagnosed with a stress fracture in his ribs in early June. One month ago, an imaging exam showed that some healing was occurring but not enough for the three-time American League MVP to resume baseball activities.
However, Judge took a step closer to returning to the New York Yankees lineup on Friday. when he played catch for the first time in months. He also ran, another activity he hasn't been able to do since his injury was diagnosed.
Does that mean Judge will be able to return before the end of the regular season with 39 games and six weeks remaining on the schedule? Yankees manager Aaron Boone wasn't willing to answer that affirmatively, but was optimistic that the team's captain would still be able to return this season.
"We expect him back, but we're in the early stages of baseball activities, so hopefully things continue to go well," Boone said, via MLB.com. "He hasn't done any baseball things in a while, so there's a lot more to do."

Varex Imaging (VREX) soared over 48% after Teledyne Technologies (TDY) announced it will acquire the X-Ray company in a deal valued at about $1.1 billion. Teledyne shares edged higher, rising within a buy zone.
Teledyne, part of IBD's aerospace and defense industry group, agreed to pay $18.90 per share in cash, a premium of 52% from Varex's closing price on Friday.
Salt Lake City, Utah-based Varex makes X-ray imaging components and software. Its products are used in medical diagnostic imaging, vehicle inspection systems and other areas.
The acquisition bolsters Teledyne's imaging business. In the second quarter, Teledyne's imaging segment recorded $868.7 million in sales, making it the largest of its four segments and more than half of total revenue.
While the two companies serve similar customers, their products are complementary and share minimal overlap, Teledyne Executive Chairman Robert Mehrabian said in the announcement.

Joe Ryan has spent much of the second half of the season trying to work through issues with his delivery. He got rocked in his first start after the break, giving up a franchise-high six home runs in a game. He gave up four earned runs in each of his next two starts.
It was atypical for the all-star starter.
"I think when you start thinking about throwing knuckleballs in situations, it's probably time to figure something out," Ryan said.
The Twins sent him home from their most recent road trip, where imaging revealed a glute strain and he was subsequently placed on the 15-day injured list. Ryan said he knew when the issue in the area started flaring up and he tried to "push through it" in those three starts.
That didn't work.

The "Daunt Meter" stationed on Pat Murphy's desk needed to be adjusted on Sunday morning, Aug. 9.
In the midst of his daily briefing with reporters, the Milwaukee Brewers manager reached over and moved the arrow to the section labeled "Significant Levels of Daunt."
Not surprising, really, considering all the moving parts on his team as it closes its homestand against the Minnesota Twins at American Family Field and prepares to head out on a second straight West Coast swing that this time will take the Brewers to San Diego and finish with a big four-game series against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
"It's all part of it," Murphy said. "Fun times."
Infielder Joey Ortiz underwent imaging on his neck and upper back on Saturday night and is considered day to day while shortstop Cooper Pratt headed out Sunday morning for a scan on his right hamstring, which he tweaked in Milwaukee's 4-3 win.

Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison jammed his thumb, but his absence from practice should not be long, coach Kevin O'Connell said.
O'Connell was not scheduled to talk to reporters on Wednesday but met with them to update Addison's injury.
"Just wanted to let you know Jordan Addison will be out here moving around today but probably not participating," O'Connell said, via Craig Peters of the team website. "He had a little thumb [injury], just kind of jammed it in the routes on air the other day. We had it checked out. All the imaging and everything came back clean. It's just a little sore, and we want to let him put this thing behind him in the next day or two, but nothing to be concerned about."
Addison, who is entering his fourth season, has totaled 175 receptions for 2,396 yards and 22 scores in his career.
In 2025, he had career lows in games played (14), targets (79), receptions (42), receiving yards (610) and touchdowns (three).

Whether or not Aaron Judge will play baseball again in 2026 has lingered over the New York Yankees all summer.
They got news in the right direction on Tuesday.
Manager Aaron Boone told reporters on Wednesday that Judge underwent imaging on his injured rib Tuesday and has been cleared for "light activity." This includes running and strength training.
He's not yet cleared for baseball activities, most notably swinging a bat. But this is a step in the right direction. And it's a significant step considering that as of Sunday, Judge didn't even have a timetable to undergo further imaging.
Judge has since had that imaging, and the results appear to be encouraging.

New Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said Monday that he's optimistic that Aaron Judge will return to baseball this season but acknowledged the chance that he might not.
Cashman discussed Judge while speaking with reporters at the conclusion of Monday's MLB trade deadline.
Judge has been sidelined with a stress fracture in his upper right rib since June 1. Yankees manager Aaron Boone told reporters Sunday that Judge is "doing well," but remained without a timeline to undergo further imaging on his injured rib.
Cashman elaborated on Judge's outlook Monday when asked about concern that Judge wouldn't play again this season.
"I think that question is a fair question on anybody's side," Cashman said per SNY audio. "Like is that possible? It's always possible that things don't go the way you want. But we currently are still very optimistic that he's gonna return."

NEW YORK — New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman expressed optimism that Aaron Judge will return from his rib injury this season, calling it a "pretty high likelihood."
But Cashman wouldn't rule anything out, saying the Yankees would gain more clarity on Judge's timeline once the star right fielder undergoes another round of re-imaging.
"I think that question is a fair question on anybody's side," Cashman said Monday when asked about his level of concern that Judge wouldn't be able to return this year.
"Like, 'Is that possible?' It's always possible that things don't go the way you want, but we currently are still very optimistic that he's going to return."
Judge has been sidelined since May 31 with a right rib stress fracture.

Well the Braves made their first of likely a handful of notable trades this trade deadline, trading two fringey pitching prospects for Lane Thomas and Bailey Falter from the Royals. Thomas will fit the role of a platoon outfielder and pinch hitter who can hit lefty pitching well and be a plus baserunner as needed. He should have a fairly concrete, if limited role. Falter is a more interesting case, as he has at times been a serviceable fifth starter at the major league level. What makes Falter so interesting to me is that he has what should be a really premium fastball, even sitting in the low 90s, with over 18 inches of induced vertical break and 97th percentile extension coming from the left side. The problem for him has been that he hasn't been able to develop a remotely respectable second pitch, let alone a third or fourth pitch. That said, that fastball is one heck of a starting point and is the type of pitch that could make him an interesting option out of the bullpen very easily, especially if the Braves can work with him to find any sort of second pitch that can work at the major league level.
The Braves traded Lucas Braun and Carter Holton to the Royals for Lane Thomas and Bailey Falter.
Reynaldo Lopez was scratched from his scheduled start Saturday last minute due to a knee injury. He is now expected to hit the IL and will get imaging done on his knee, while JR Ritchie is expected to start Sunday.
Braves' first round pick AJ Gracia is reportedly getting season-ending surgery for a torn labrum, as he will hope to return at the beginning of next season.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Dodgers reliever Brock Stewart is headed to the 15-day injured list with right shoulder discomfort for the third time this season.
Los Angeles manager Dave Roberts on Friday called the move "proactive" and downplayed the severity. Stewart is scheduled to have imaging on Saturday.
The Dodgers selected the contract of left-hander Cole Irvin from Triple-A Oklahoma City, where he was 9-6 with a 3.58 ERA in 20 starts this season. He was expected to pitch as part of a bullpen game against the Boston Red Sox on Friday night. It would be Irvin's first appearance in a major league game since 2024.
Stewart, a right-hander, has a 2.45 ERA and one save in 14 games this season.
To make room on the 40-man roster, right-handed pitcher Chayce McDermott was designated for ****** ignment.

One of the dark clouds that has hovered over the Mark Pope era in Lexington is injuries. Year one, year two, and now heading into year three, we hear that word floating and continue to hope for the best with these athletes and the injuries tied to them.
One of the players that has unfortunately seen some time sidelined due to injury is Kam Williams. Last year, against the Texas Longhorns, Williams suffered a foot injury on a routine play. Since then, he has worked his tail off, recovering from immediate surgery to return within such a short window, and ultimately made that happen by returning to be with the 2025-26 squad as they went into the postseason.
We recently learned from Mark Pope that Williams underwent a second surgery, which delayed things a little bit for the rising junior, heading into his second season in Lexington.
Then on Thursday, Williams met with local media and opened up about his recent surgery.
"It was really a clean-up thing," said Williams. "Obviously, I was preparing to come back for the summer, like in May or whatever, and started working out more and more. Then went up for another imaging process or whatever, and we just didn't like how it looked in a way. So we just decided that it was the best opportunity we needed to take advantage of, which was getting it cleaned up."

Detroit — Barring any unforeseen, last-second snag, Javier Báez is back.
"I'm anticipating him being available to us today in the big leagues," manager AJ Hinch said on his weekly segment on MLB Radio.
Báez, 33, hasn't played since severely spraining his ankle ducking and half-sliding trying to avoid a tag at first base in the Tigers' 5-2 loss at Atlanta on April 28.
"I don't know how I didn't break it," Báez said that night after preliminary imaging showed no fracture.
But it was a high-ankle sprain and the recovery process was slow. After having to be shut down from baseball activity for a stretch last month, he's been on a fast track back. He made two rehab starts at Low-A Lakeland before being transferred to Triple-A Toledo over the weekend.

Tower Semiconductor Ltd. (NASDAQ:TSEM) is one of the top stocks to buy according to Whale Rock Capital Management. On June 18, Tower Semiconductor Ltd. (NASDAQ:TSEM) announced that it has shipped more than five million coherent photonic integrated circuits (PICs) to global customers of its partner Marvell Technology.
These chips are used in coherent optical transceivers, which are specialized components that transmit data over fiber optic cables. According to Tower, these components are increasingly needed to link data centers as AI computing drives up demand for network bandwidth and speed. It added that coherent PICs are harder to build than simpler chip types because they must precisely control both the phase and polarization of light. Tower has been working with Marvell to push this technology forward, including combining silicon with other specialized materials, stacking electronic components in three dimensions, and using an advanced packaging method known as V-Grooves to improve how light is guided through the chip.
Dr. Ed Preisler, who leads Tower's RF Business Unit, said the company's photonics manufacturing platforms need to keep evolving alongside the requirements of coherent optical transceivers, and that Tower is proud of its partnership with Marvell in this area.
For Dr. Radha Nagarajan, Marvell's chief technology officer for optical engineering, the shipment is a milestone that proves the strength of the two companies' collaboration. Nagarajan added that Marvell intends to keep working with Tower to develop next-generation coherent technology suited to large-scale data center networks.

It provides technology, development, and process platforms for integrated circuits, including SiPho, SiGe, CMOS image sensor, RF CMOS, mixed signal CMOS, non-imaging sensors, and integrated power management technologies.

The Yankees have lost 15 of their last 20 games as they continue to play without superstar right fielder Aaron Judge.
But one MLB Insider says the Yankees have a date in mind for re-imaging on the stress fracture in Judge's right first rib.
"We don't know when Judge is coming back," Jon Heyman of the New York Post said on The Show with Joel Sherman and Jon Heyman. "...They won't even say when he's getting the reimaging… I've heard they do have a date in mind, which can change. But they don't want to say anything for whatever reason."
Judge was placed on the 10-day injured list on June 4. The Yankees said at the time that Judge would be reimaged in 4-6 weeks to determine a level of healing, and the appropriate next steps.
Next Thursday, July 16, will mark exactly six weeks from June 4.

NEW YORK — Austin Warren has been one of the most pleasant surprises within the Mets pitching staff this season.
Before Tuesday night, the 30-year-old right-handed journeyman, who is in his sixth major league season with three different teams, had occupied a slew of important roles in the bullpen, from multi-inning to high-leverage. He had a 3.34 ERA with 37 strikeouts in 35 innings.
Warren admitted that he had not been feeling his best and reported forearm tightness after failing to record an out and giving up five earned runs on four hits, one walk and one hitter in Tuesday's 16-12 loss to the Royals.
The right-hander was placed on the 15-day injured list on Wednesday, but imaging revealed no structural damage to his elbow ligament.
"I haven't felt great the last couple. Obviously, that's part of the game these days," Warren said. 'I've had outings earlier in the year that I haven't felt great that went better than (Tuesday), but (Tuesday) I threw a pitch, I don't know what pitch number it was, but it just didn't feel great."

US-based medical technology company VB Spine has signed a definitive agreement with Augmedics to acquire the exclusive rights to the computed tomography-to-fluoroscopy (CT-Fluoro) technology for spine applications.
The agreement follows VB Spine's earlier acquisition of the exclusive rights to the Augmedics xvision Spine System platform.
The CT-Fluoro technology enables surgeons to register a patient's preoperative CT scan using standard fluoroscopic imaging.
This process could reduce reliance on intraoperative CT or 3D imaging systems during spinal procedures, potentially broadening workflow options and reducing imaging requirements.
VB Spine stated that the technology is intended to increase accessibility to augmented reality navigation for a wider variety of facilities and surgical settings.

SAN DIEGO — Right-hander Justin Martinez could face hitters as soon as next week, manager Torey Lovullo said, as his fireballing reliever continues to trend toward a return from the injured list next month.
Martinez, working his way back from Tommy John surgery, has thrown at least a dozen bullpen sessions, Lovullo said, and could face hitters in live batting practice for the first time early next week. After that, Martinez is scheduled to undergo a round of imaging, at which point he could be close to beginning a minor-league rehab ****** ignment.
“It depends on how the lives go,” Lovullo said. “I think there’s going to be a series of lives — how many, I’m not sure. But his return is sometime in August. It’s imminent. He’s charging very hard.”
Lovullo said Martinez continues to hit the upper-90s with his fastball in his side sessions.
Martinez was expected to be the third of three pitchers to return from the injured list following elbow surgery this year, but both right-hander Corbin Burnes and lefty A.J. Puk have hit road ****** ps in their rehabs.

Minnesota Lynx guard Olivia Miles is the frontrunner for the 2026 WNBA 'Rookie of the Year' award. Throughout the current season, Miles has yet to miss a game while averaging outstanding numbers of 18.5 points, 4.8 rebounds, 5.7 **** ists, and 1.4 steals in around 30.6 minutes per contest. While the race for the award remains competitive with players such as Dallas Wings rookie Azzi Fudd stacking her case up, Miles remains in front to win it.
Unfortunately for the former TCU Horned Frogs star, she is dealing with a minor setback. Miles is set to miss her first-ever game due to a right calf injury in the WNBA on Monday, July 6. In a report by WNBA insider Cassidy Hettesheimer on X, Minnesota coach Cheryl Reeve explained the decision behind sitting Miles out. According to the tenured tactician, Reeve and her staff are making sure that Miles' injury does not worsen.
"Those that were in tune to the last game, you know, she mentioned feeling some cramping, and you know, I think ultimately it wasn't a cramp, and so we're kind of taking the next step of imaging and that sort of thing, and trying to get a final answer, exactly what we're dealing with," Reeve was quoted as saying.
The Lynx are taking on coach Rachid Meziane's Connecticut Sun on their home floor without Miles. Coach Reeve and company will have to rely on veterans such as forward Natasha Howard and guard Courtney Williams for now, especially since Miles is leading the team in scoring in her first year. Minnesota currently has an overall record of 15-5, good for the first seed in the Western Conference.
Prior to the Minnesota Lynx taking on the Connecticut Sun, they lost to the New York Liberty on Friday by 13 points, 99-86, in away territory. There were many onlookers for the game, since it was a rematch of the 2024 WNBA Finals. Despite the loss, Olivia Miles still put up 14 points, five rebounds, five **** ists, and a steal in 26 minutes of playing time. On the flip side, Liberty forward Breanna Stewart put up a game-high 36 points.

The New York Yankees have been sorely missing their captain of late. They're toiling through their longest losing streak of the season, a skid that reached seven games on Wednesday after the Detroit Tigers handed the Yankees a 6-2 defeat in 11 innings and brought out the brooms in the Bronx. New York (48-38) has now been swept two series in a row and is staring up at the Tampa Bay Rays in the AL East standings.
Aaron Judge hasn't played since May 31. He's been on the injured list for nearly four weeks with a stress fracture of his right rib, an injury he believes sprouted while he dove for a ball in shallow right field on his 34th birthday amid a 7-4 loss to the Houston Astros.
Normally, the seven-time All-Star can effect change with his play. He's a three-time AL MVP, after all, and the owner of the ****** le for two seasons running. For now, though, he's sidelined. He told reporters Wednesday prior to the Yankees' series finale versus the Tigers that he had no injury update for them and wouldn't until he received new scans.
"You know how it goes around here — guys can feel good, feel bad, but you've got to wait on images," he said, per The ****** ociated Press.
When Judge was diagnosed with his injury, the Yankees said he'd have additional imaging in approximately four to six weeks.
