Nidal Malik Hasan, a former Army officer and psychiatrist who killed 13 people and injured 32 others during a mass shooting at Fort Hood, Texas, in 2009, will be executed by a U.S. Army firing squad, the Pentagon announced Monday.
"Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has recommended — and President Donald J. Trump has approved — death by U.S. Army firing squad for convicted terrorist Nidal Malik Hasan, the jihadist who opened fire on unarmed American soldiers at Fort Hood in 2009," Chief Pentagon Spokesman Sean Parnell announced. "He killed 13 people and wounded 32 others while shouting 'Allahu Akbar' during the attack.
"The Secretary of the Army will set the time and place of the execution," he continued. "Judgement day for Hasan has finally come."
If Hasan's execution is indeed carried out by a firing squad, it would mark the first such case for the service since Jan. 31, 1945, when Pvt. Eddie D. Slovik was executed by a U.S. Army firing squad in France for desertion during World War II.
The last death sentence carried out by the U.S. military was in 1961, when Army Pvt. John Bennett was executed by hanging at the gallows in Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, after he was convicted of raping and attempting to kill a young girl.

The NFL is back, and with that comes exciting upsets like the Arizona Cardinals winning over the Los Angeles Chargers, as well as the New York Giants pulling out a rare win at home to open the season against the Dallas Cowboys. The Raiders also made a statement against the Miami Dolphins. Still, injuries are a reality in football as usual, so Let's take a look at some of the notable names who have been injured during Week One and who could show up on the report Wednesday.
Baltimore Ravens WR Zay Flowers (Hamstring) & Ja'Kobi Lane (Wrist)
Zay Flowers left the game against the Indianapolis Colts with an injury on Sunday (Hamstring). Before exiting, he caught five passes for 150 yards and a touchdown. NFL Network NFL insider Ian Rapoport has since reported that the injury may not be considered serious, and Flowers will undergo an MRI for further evaluation.
Rookie wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane has reportedly suffered a broken wrist and could miss several weeks of the season.

Cowboys news: Dallas praying Malik Hooker's injury isn't as bad as it could be after Week 1 debacle appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
On Sunday evening, the Dallas Cowboys kicked off their season with an ugly 28-20 road loss to the New York Giants. The Cowboys' new-look defense, which had received considerable hype from fans and pundits alike heading into this year, fell flat on its face in this one, finding itself unable to get off the field in the second half against New York.
Things went from bad to worse when Malik Hooker went down with an injury, and on Monday, the team got the latest update on his potential recovery process.
"#Cowboys S Malik Hooker fractured a bone in his forearm and he's consulting with a hand specialist to learn his recovery time, sources say. While some breaks can mean a player is out six weeks, the hope is based on the specific bone and break, it's quicker than that," reported NFL insider Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network on X, formerly Twitter.

Hope season for the New York Giants lasted longer than most teams this year, and so too did the questions that hung over their offseason.
With the second-to-last kick-off of opening weekend, Giants fans had to wait, and wait… and wait to find out what their team would look like in 2026. Likewise, they also had to wait until the last minute to find out whether star receiver Malik Nabers would even play against the Dallas Cowboys.
Nabers' status remained unclear even into Sunday afternoon, and reports eventually emerged that Nabers would be a true game-time decision.
Even Nabers himself wasn't sure if he'd be ready to go against the Cowboys. He even told his family to not come to the game, in case he wouldn't be able to play.
"I really didn't know; my family didn't even come to this game because it's a one-on-one battle that you have go through. You have to do it for yourself," he said after the game. "I didn't want everybody here, I didn't want my family here and I feel like I let them down by not playing, so I had to do it for myself first. I had to go out there, feel it out, feel like I was doing it and I felt good."

Some plays don't show up in the box score.
Yet if it wasn't for a tackle from John Harbaugh, Malik Nabers' name might not be in the box score at all. The New York Giants star receiver had been on the fence about playing all week long, hesitant to step onto the MetLife Stadium field – the same field where he suffered a torn ACL last season.
Nabers figures to be a key piece to the Giants' offense, but he needed some reassurance before giving it a go on "Sunday Night Football" against the rival Dallas Cowboys in Week 1. And that reassurance came in the form of a tackle from his new head coach during walkthroughs, quarterback Jaxson Dart shared after the game.
"Things were just up-in-the-air, we didn't know exactly what was gonna happen," Dart said, "Me and Coach Harbs kinda had some conversations and he's like, 'You know what? I think that once he gets hit for the first time and realizes that he's OK, he's gonna feel confident.'"
Dart said that in Harbaugh's mind, that meant the coach had to tackle his star receiver.

The UConn Huskies (1-1) struggled to stay above water in their 38-14 loss to the Maryland Terrapins (2-0).
Paving the way for Connecticut, quarterback Kalieb Osborne completed 10 of 21 (41.7%) passes for 156 yards and two touchdowns. Osborne also led with 62 rushing yards, while running back Kenji Christian posted 21 yards. In the air, Shamar Porter paved the way with 62 receiving yards and an end zone appearance. JD Willoughby followed with 36 yards and a touchdown. Defensively, cornerback Zion Paret racked up 12 tackles (six solo) and K'Von Sherman tallied nine (four solo).
As for Maryland, Malik Washington landed 34 of 41 (82.9%) throws for 347 yards and two touchdowns. In the backfield, running backs Iverson Howard and Harry Dalton III rushed for 57 yards and crossed the goal line three times. At wide receiver, Na'eem Abdul-Rahim Gladding led with 130 yards and a touchdown. Behind him, Chris Durr Jr. registered 103 yards and a touchdown. Defensively, linebackers Sidney Stewart and Carlton Smith recorded six tackles and Stewart earning a sack.
"There weren't any adverse moments in our first football game. This is a whole different animal," Head Coach Jason Candle said. "They were going to try and lean on us and run the ball down your throat; play up in the face of your receiver. They're going to play pressure-style defense and we're going to figure out how we're going to respond."
To kick off the game, UConn and Maryland traded end zone appearances. With just under five minutes remaining in the opening quarter, Connecticut struck first. After forcing a quick three-and-out, the Terrapins punted from their 14-yard line. Wide receiver Julian Allen's 18-yard return spotted the ball at Maryland's 32-yard line, but a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty backed it up to the 47-yard line.

The New York Giants are completing their 53-man roster by signing wide recever/special teamer Dalen Cambre to the active roster from their practice squad, a source confirms. The move was initially reported by Art Stapleton.
The Giants had been carrying just 52 players after releasing wide receiver Darius Slayton earlier in the week.
Cambre, a former undrafted free agent, played in seven games almost exclusively on special teams for the Giants last season.
His presence means the Giants now have five wide receivers on their roster. They are also elevating wide receiver Braxton Berrios from the practice squad to be the punt returner and part of the kickoff unit, and linebacker Malik Harrison.

The Dallas Cowboys enter their 2026 season opener against the New York Giants banged up in one key spot, but otherwise in solid shape as they prepare for Sunday Night Football at MetLife Stadium. Running back Malik Davis is the only Cowboys player carrying an official game status on the final Week 1 injury report, and he's out with a significant hip injury suffered Friday. Beyond that, head coach Brian Schottenheimer's roster is largely clean heading into the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff.

The Dallas Cowboys are back! And, of course, it's another start to the season where the Cowboys roll into MetLife Stadium to take on the New York Giants. The Giants have many questions heading into the 2026 season with a whole new coaching staff after a season where they managed to win only four games. Let's break it down then get to some predictions.
Expect the Giants to make the running game the starting point of their new offense. John Harbaugh has brought in coaches with a history of building physical rushing attacks, while fullback Patrick Ricard and first-round offensive lineman Francis Mauigoa were added to help them play that way. Cam Skattebo gives them a powerful runner, but quarterback Jaxson Dart is just as important. Dart rushed for 487 yards and nine touchdowns as a rookie, so Dallas cannot simply chase the running back and forget about the quarterback.
The biggest opportunity for New York comes when Dallas starts worrying too much about the run. The Cowboys allowed 4,735 passing yards and 31 passing touchdowns last season, and Dart finished the year by completing 22 of 32 passes for 230 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in a 34-17 win over Dallas.
If Malik Nabers is cleared to play following his ACL recovery, his matchup against the Dallas secondary becomes even more important, although his Week 1 availability remains uncertain. The Giants' route to victory is to keep Dallas guessing with the running game and Skattebo, use Dart as a runner, then attack downfield when the Cowboys bring extra defenders toward the line.
Dallas should make New York prove immediately that its run defense has improved. The Giants surrendered 2,470 rushing yards last season, while Javonte Williams ran for 1,201 yards and scored 11 rushing touchdowns for Dallas. Running the football also has another benefit this week because the Cowboys will be without All-Pro guard Tyler Smith following thumb surgery. T.J. Bass will replace him, so giving the offensive line manageable situations rather than asking it to pass protect on every play makes sense.

The Dallas Cowboys will have another running back on the active roster to go along with Javonte Williams, Emari Demercado, and Hunter Luepke. They have signed Israel Abanikanda from the practice squad as a counter move to Malik Davis going on injured reserve with a hip injury. Sources indicate it could be season-ending.
Cowboys placed RB Malik Davis on injured reserve and signed RB Israel Abanikanda to their active roster from their practice squad.
Abanikanda first came to the Cowboys last November after spending time with the New York Jets, San Francisco 49ers, and the Green Bay Packers. In January, he signed to a reserve/future contract before getting waived in August during final roster cuts. However, he was signed to the practice squad the next day.
This gives the Cowboys another option at running back that is fully up to speed on the offense and should be able to contribute if asked. He hasn't had much production with just 70 rushing yards and 43 receiving yards, but team will not ask much of him right away as Demercado should pick up much of the work.

UPDATE: 9:38 a.m. Saturday
A lot has happened since our early posting this week. The biggest injury news is the meniscus tear suffered by the No. 1 tight end, the Raiders' Brock Bowers. He will miss Week 1, and at least a couple of weeks after that.
The season-opening game proved painful for New England star receiver A.J. Brown. He's now on injured reserve.with a high-ankle sprain that will sideline him at least a month.
Several questionable players are more likely to play this week. Arizona rookie RB Jeremiyah Love and Las Vegas sophomore Ashton Jeanty are now expected to start, as is Chicago wideout Rome Odunze. And while Giants WR Malik Nabers is playing it coy, he should be on the field tomorrow night against Dallas.
Cooper Rush will now quarterback Atlanta thanks to injuries to Michael Penix and Tua Tagovailoa. That might turn out to be good news for top Falcons performers Drake London, Bijan Robinson and Kyle Pitts.

Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes is in trouble in return from torn ACL to face Broncos appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Kansas City Chiefs are coming into 2026 with a clean slate after a nightmare campaign in 2025, headlined by an injury to Patrick Mahomes and a disastrous 6-11 finish.
Most players who tear their ACL late in the season won't be ready, or even that close to ready, to return by Week 1 of the next season. Packers star Micah Parsons' torn ACL from a similar timeline is going to bleed well into the 2026 season, and Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers is still working his way back from the same injury much earlier in 2025. But Mahomes has taken all of the first-team reps in training camp and appears ready to go for Week 1.
Watching whether Mahomes is at 100% or not upon his return will be what many have their eye on when the Chiefs take on the Denver Broncos to open the 2026 season on Monday Night Football in Kansas City. But even if he is feeling like his old self, he will have his hands full against a Broncos defense that was one of the best in the NFL last season and returns all of its starters in 2026.

Dallas Cowboys RB Malik Davis (hip) was limited during practice Friday, Sept. 11, and has been ruled out for Week 1.
SOURCE: Todd Archer - ESPN
Why It Matters: Davis suffered the injury during practice, so fantasy players can keep an eye out to see how long he may be sidelined. Javonte Williams will see most of the work at running back in Week 1 and can be at least a No. 2 back in fantasy leagues.

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

The New York Giants (0-0) will open the regular season against the Dallas Cowboys (0-0) on Sunday Night Football at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
Although apparently healthy, the status of wide receiver Malik Nabers is the injury headliner. He participated in full this week, but neither he nor head coach John Harbaugh has committed to him playing in Week 1. He will be a game-time decision.
"You can never rule out anything," Harbaugh told reporters. "All things are possible."
Ultimately, the Giants made it through the week healthy and will have their full complement of players available on Sunday, Nabers notwithstanding. For now.

The New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys are set to kick off the 2026 regular season, which means fantasy football is in full swing.
With drafts already taken place, the majority of lineups are going to reflect the order in which managers drafted. Even so, there are still a handful of players who may be on the fringe in terms of their fantasy viability in Week 1.
We're not counting the likes of CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, Malik Nabers and Javonte Williams — all of whom should be started without thought.
Meanwhile, here's a look at five players from this matchup to start or sit in Week 1:
Both quarterbacks should be in fantasy lineups this week to open the season, but we're going to focus a bit more on Dart here. Though the second-year quarterback was going relatively late in drafts, he's in a fantastic spot this week. The Cowboys defense has gotten better, but they still allowed the most fantasy points per game (23.4) to the quarterback position last season. Given that and his rushing upside, Dart is a strong option at quarterback.

With drafts already taken place, the majority of lineups are going to reflect the order in which managers drafted. Even so, there are still a handful of players who may be on the fringe in terms of their fantasy viability in Week 1.
We're not counting the likes of CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, Malik Nabers and Javonte Williams — all of whom should be started without thought.
Meanwhile, here's a look at five players from this matchup to start or sit in Week 1:
Both quarterbacks should be in fantasy lineups this week to open the season, but we're going to focus a bit more on Dart here. Though the second-year quarterback was going relatively late in drafts, he's in a fantastic spot this week. The Cowboys defense has gotten better, but they still allowed the most fantasy points per game (23.4) to the quarterback position last season. Given that and his rushing upside, Dart is a strong option at quarterback.

Malik Nabers' injury update could make Giants fans very nervous originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The New York Giants want to win, and this fanbase is hungry for some victories after last season's 4-13 finish. One way to help the case is having wide receiver Malik Nabers healthy and ready to go for the team's first game of the season.
The Giants open their season on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys, so this isn't just any season opener. This is two teams who pretty much hate each other, at least in a rivalry way, going at it to get the first win of the regular season.
Nabers suffered a season-ending torn ACL and meniscus injury in September 2025 against the Los Angeles Chargers. So, will he be back on Sunday to open the Giants' season?
On Thursday, Nabers offered up an injury update, but it was more of a non-update, because he didn't say anything that should make New York any less nervous.

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers said on Thursday that the decision on whether or not to play Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys is up to him.
He would not, though, reveal whether or not he would be playing.
"It's my career and it's my body," Nabers said. "I know when I'm able to play."
Nabers said he is "feeling good", but still won't commit to being in uniform Sunday night.
"I've been wanting to play for so long now," Nabers said. "At the end of the day, I can't put my career at risk. I got to take that into account. There's a lot of football that I still have left to play."

COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) — DeJuan Williams scored on a 94-yard run in the first quarter, the first of six rushing touchdowns for Maryland in a 62-0 rout of Hampton on Saturday night.
Williams and Iverson Howard scored twice each for the Terrapins in their season opener, and Harry Dalton III and Jianni Davis had a touchdown apiece. Malik Washington and Cardell Williams each threw for a TD as well.
Maryland outgained the Pirates (1-1) 646-85 in Hampton's first-ever game against a Power Four team.
Williams' long run to open the scoring was the second-longest in Maryland history, topped only by a 98-yarder in 1978 by Steve Atkins against Clemson.
Williams also had an 8-yard scoring run and finished with 116 yards on three carries.

Starting safety Brenden Jordan was a late scratch from the Texas Tech football team's starting lineup against Abilene Christian, the team announcing he would miss the first two games of the season just before kickoff.
The initial news release said Jordan's absence was non-injury related reasons. Joey McGuire explained after the game that Jordan has been issued a suspension for a violation of team rules.
"He'll be back," McGuire said. "He's in good standing. He was on the sideline tonight and we expect him back. He won't play these first two games."
Jordan was the veteran returner in Tech's secondary, entering his fourth year with the program and had started 15-straight starts at the end of last season.
Peyton Morgan and Malik Esquerra started at the safety positions for Texas Tech in the 33-10 win over ACU.

The Texas Tech football team knew it would have one new starting safety this season. The Red Raiders actually are beginning the season with two.
Peyton Morgan went through pre-game warmups with the first team at free safety and Malik Esquerra at boundary safety before Tech's season opener against Abilene Christian at Galaxy Stadium. Those two and Oliver Miles III had been competing for one open safety job throughout the off-season.

Tech announced before the game that returning starter Brenden Jordan will miss the first two games for reasons not related to injury. Jordan ended last season with a streak of 15 consecutive starts.

The NFL is loaded with young players entering the 2026 season with the opportunity to take their games to another level. Some have already shown flashes of becoming stars, while others are stepping into much larger roles for the first time. With the regular season about to begin, here are 13 players that are poised for breakout seasons.

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart (6) walks off the field at halftime during a preseason opening game between the New York Giants and Minnesota Vikings on Saturday, Aug. 15, 2026, at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ.
Dart showed enough as a rookie to make Giants fans believe they finally have their quarterback of the future. With a full season ahead of him, the second-year quarterback has legitimate breakout potential. A new coaching staff and a healthy Malik Nabers could make all the difference.

ESPN made a curious decision in the midst of its Thursday night September 3, primetime tennis coverage of the 2026 US Open.
Following Coco Gauff's straight set win over Paula Badosa and before Alexander Zverev took the court to play Quentin Hays, the network opted to air a desk commentary segment with Malika Andrews and Sam Querrey instead of showing live footage of the conclusion of the Gael Monfils, Learner Tien match.
Gael Monfils lost in straight sets. This match marked his last ever as a player at the US Open. He is retiring at the end of the year to take a desk job. Monfils, who celebrated his 40th birthday with a win on Tuesday night, has played at the US Open for over two decades beginning as a junior.

The New York Giants are signing veteran linebacker Malik Harrison to the practice squad Thursday, per ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.
A name familiar to the John Harbuagh circle, Harrison spent five seasons (2020-2024) with the Baltimore Ravens under the Giants new head coach after he was selected by Baltimore in the third round of the 2020 NFL draft.
According to Fowler's report, the 28-year-old veteran is expected to have a role early on — most likely on special teams to begin.

Harrison has spent most of his career as a reserve player. In 87 career games (43 starts), the Ohio State product has recorded 215 tackles (120 solo), nine tackles for loss and two sacks.

The Miami Dolphins weren't impressed by their trio of quarterbacks battling to back up Malik Willis this preseason, which led the team to trade Quinn Ewers and cut both Cam Miller and Mark Gronowski over the weekend.
While these moves left Miami without a quarterback, they quickly pivoted and completed a trade with the Green Bay Packers to acquire Kyle McCord, who completed 65.7% of his passes for 446 yards and four touchdowns in the preseason.
Speaking with the media this week, Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst explained the decision to move on from the 23-year-old.
"He played so well during the preseason. We were contemplating, do we keep three? Do we try to get him to the practice squad, what's the likelihood of that? When somebody calls you and starts talking about a trade, the likelihood of getting him to the practice squad probably isn't strong," Gutekunst said. "It's always (tough), whenever you trade a player that you like and you think has an upside, but he wasn't going to be the No. 2 here most likely, and heading into next year, who knows? It's our job to find the next guy, and develop the next guy. That's what we do. That's what we'll do moving forward."
Instead of rolling with McCord as Jordan Love's backup, the Packers took the sixth-round pick they got in return and will have Tyrod Taylor step in if their starter goes down in 2026.

The Dallas Cowboys made one of the more surprising decisions during the NFL's final round of roster cuts, moving on from running backs Jaydon Blue and Phil Mafah. The two young players entered the offseason competing for a larger role, but neither survived the battle for a place behind the team's top option.
Blue and Mafah were part of a three-way competition with Malik Davis for the No. 2 running back job. Dallas ultimately chose Davis, leaving the two younger ball carriers without roster spots and creating a notable shakeup in a position group that appeared unsettled throughout the offseason.

Blue's release was particularly surprising because the Cowboys selected him in the fifth round of the 2025 draft. The former Texas standout spent only one season with the organization, and his departure ended a short tenure that began with expectations he could eventually develop into a meaningful contributor.
Mafah also entered the league with draft pedigree, though Dallas invested less in him as a seventh-round selection. His rookie season included limited opportunities, producing 18 rushing yards and a touchdown on five carries while adding two receptions for 11 yards, but those flashes were not enough to secure his return.
