Five years into her engagement to Danny Fujikawa, Kate Hudson has a surprisingly relatable reason for why she's still not ready to walk down the aisle.
On the September 8 episode of her Sibling Revelry podcast with brother Oliver Hudson, she openly discussed the issues she's having with organizing a wedding to her long-time fiancé. And it's not about cold feet whatsoever.

Gwyneth Paltrow Reportedly 'Approves' of Apple Martin's Boyfriend for This Surprisingly Un-Hollywood Reason
"I still am not married. I'm just engaged, and I keep thinking about the wedding, like, 'What are we gonna do?'" Hudson explained. "And then every time we start thinking about who we have to invite, Danny's like, 'I just want a small wedding.' I'm like, 'Our family alone is like 50 people.' There's a million kids. There's a million uncles and aunts and cousins."

Artificial intelligence (AI) software demand is increasing at a healthy clip, which isn't surprising considering the productivity gains this technology can deliver.
A recent survey by McKinsey revealed that 80% of respondents who use AI report higher productivity, while 50% report better decision-making. Not surprisingly, the generative AI tools offered by Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ:PLTR) are in high demand, as evidenced by the company's phenomenal growth.
Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia. Continue »
Palantir is one of the pioneers in AI software. The productivity gains delivered by its Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) are driving solid revenue and earnings growth for Palantir by helping it land bigger deals and more customers. However, Palantir stock is expensively valued, and that's one of the reasons it has lost over 4% of its value in 2026.
But the same isn't true for Snowflake (NYSE:SNOW), another AI software company whose stock price has jumped 53% this year. Let's see why that has been the case and check whether it is too late to buy this AI software specialist.

Owen Hargreaves couldn't speak highly enough of Kobbie Mainoo ahead of Manchester United's clash with Sabah last night.
The midfielder (unsurprisingly) retained his starting spot for United's Champions League opener and played just over an hour as the Reds cruised to a comfortable win on home soil.

Mainoo was eventually replaced by summer signing Andrey Santos in the 64th minute, while Benjamin Sesko simultaneously made way for Joshua Zirkzee for his first appearance of the season.
When United got their Premier League campaign underway last month, the 21-year-old started on the bench for the opening fixture against Hull City.

Railroad retirement coverage follows the employer, not the work, so independent locomotive manufacturers' workers earn zero creditable railroad service regardless of their job.
Paycheck deductions reveal which system applies. Railroad employees pay Tier I and Tier II taxes, while Social Security-covered workers see only standard withholding.
Workers should confirm RRB employer coverage, check payroll records for Tier II deductions, and review their Social Security earnings record before building any retirement plan.
Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset's free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don't waste another minute; learn more here.
In February, Union Pacific signed a $1.2 billion deal with Wabtec to modernize locomotives, a reminder that the companies building the machines and the railroads running them can sit on opposite sides of a surprisingly important retirement line.

The Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green has watched Stephen Curry's incredible journey up close, witnessing how the undersized guard developed into a global superstar and one of the greatest point guards in NBA history. However, despite spending more than a decade playing alongside Curry, Green still believes someone else deserves the ****** le of the best point guard he has ever played with.
Ernie Johnson stands as one of the most respected and beloved voices in modern sports broadcasting. He is best known as the longtime host of TNT's critically acclaimed studio program Inside the NBA. With his calm presence, sharp sense of humor, and ability to keep conversations flowing, Johnson has become an iconic figure around NBA coverage.
However, Johnson has never played a single NBA game. Despite that, Green delivered a remarkably bold ****** sment of the veteran broadcaster during the latest episode of The Draymond Green Podcast, surprisingly naming Johnson as the best point guard he has ever played with.

"And I say this with all due respect, because y'all know I rock for this guy but he is the best point guard I've ever played with," Green said. "That's no disrespect to the great Steph Curry. "Ernie Johnson, on a set, is as incredible as they come. He sees everything."

San Francisco 49ers RB Kaelon Black had a game-high 14 carries for 65 yards against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 1. He added a five-yard reception on his lone target.
SOURCE: ESPN
Why It Matters: For years, the 49ers have steadfastly refused to utilize a second running back in any meaningful way when Christian McCaffrey has been available. On Thursday, they did just that, giving the rookie 14 rushing attempts -- that was four more than McCaffrey, and five more than last year's RB2 Brian Robinson had in any game. Black delivered, too, running hard and posting a healthy 4.6 yards per carry. You never want to read too much into Week 1, and there were extenuating circumstances with the game taking place in Australia, but Black did enough to warrant adding off waivers if he's out there.

The Kardashian family has become deeply intertwined with sports. One of the younger sisters, Kendall Jenner, was featured in a viral Super Bowl ad this year, and another, and Kim Kardashian, arguably the face of the family, has been romantically linked to athletes such as NBA player Kris Humphries, as well as NFL stars Reggie Bush and Odell Beckham Jr, and is currently dating F1 superstar Lewis Hamilton.
Now, Kardashian is deepening her inroads in the sports community, as she'll be an executive producer for Team Moms: Baseball, a reality TV series focusing on the parents of the Legendary Preps Academy baseball team in Scottsdale, Arizona.
"These families are passionate, competitive, and completely all in when it comes to their kids—and sometimes what happens in the stands is just as intense as what happens on the field," Kardashian and executive producer Natalie Ento said of the show, per Deadline. "That's what makes Team Moms: Baseball so much fun to watch."
On Wednesday, the first trailer for the show was released.
Somewhat unsurprisingly, the trailer and Kardashian's involvement in the show didn't debut to rave reviews.

In a Fox News exclusive interview, Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico came out in favor of banning gender surgery for minors and opposed transgender-identifying men competing in women's sports.
Talarico also backtracked on several of his more controversial claims, including saying there are six genders and that "God is nonbinary."
This comes as the Texas Senate race, which is surprisingly close according to recent Fox News polling, enters its final months. The race is considered critical to both parties' chances of securing a Senate majority. Talarico is facing Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, a Republican who has faced controversies of his own. A Republican loss in Texas would significantly impact President Donald Trump's ability to implement his agenda.
Fox News spoke with Talarico at a food drive campaign event in Dallas on Tuesday. Talarico's event took place as the first-ever GOP midterm convention kicked off just miles away in downtown Dallas.

Rayo Vallecano face a daunting trip to the Santiago Bernabeu to take on a wounded Real Madrid this weekend.
Life after Inigo Perez has not been kind to the Vallecas-based club, who have already had to travel to Camp Nou and now face a trip to the home of their city giants.
Speaking ahead of the game (h/t Madrid Xtra), Rayo Vallecano manager Benat San Jose was asked which Real Madrid player he would like to remove from the team before this weekend's game.
Surprisingly, his choice was not Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior or Thibaut Courtois.
Asked which Madrid player he would take out of the upcoming contest, Benat jokingly chose the man sitting on the opposition bench.

Actress Nicole Kidman has major plans to spend more time in London moving forward—though, as the "Nine Perfect Strangers" star has revealed, the city has quietly been a part of her life for decades.
Nearly a year after her split from husband Keith Urban, 58, Kidman, 59, let slip to British Vogue that she's had an apartment near Notting Hill for quite some time.
"I've had it for 20 years … 21 actually," the actress, who admitted that she has been "lonely" at home following her divorce," said.
It marks the first time that the "Moulin Rouge!" actress has confirmed she owns property in London—having already amassed homes in Beverly Hills, CA; New York City; Nashville, TN; and Australia. While all of those properties have appeared in numerous headlines, her U.K. abode has remained surprisingly under the radar.
"I'm stealth," Kidman shared of her ability to keep the property so tightly under wraps.

Blac Chyna has spent plenty of money on luxury over the years, but one purchase still tops them all. Surprisingly, her biggest splurge was not for herself. Instead, it was a six-figure gift for ex-fiancé Rob Kardashian.
Chyna revealed the eye-watering purchase during a new WatchGuys interview. While discussing expensive purchases, she said the most money she has ever spent at once was on a car. "I bought a car. Range Rover," Chyna recalled.
Then came the twist. "I actually bought it for Rob," she said, referring to Rob Kardashian. Chyna estimated that the Range Rover cost roughly $150,000. "That was when I was big ballin'," she joked.
The confession came during a conversation about luxury watches and high-end spending. Even then, Chyna pointed back to the Range Rover as the purchase that topped everything else. The Blac Chyna $150,000 car revelation brings back a memorable chapter from the former couple's relationship.
Chyna originally surprised Kardashian with a black Range Rover in December 2016. At the time, photos showed the vehicle topped with a large blue bow. According to Us Weekly, Kardashian thanked Chyna after receiving the extravagant gift.

Let's be brutally honest, ladies. If someone had told us back in 1996 that Pamela Anderson - the slow-motion running, red-swimsuit-wearing, ultimate 90s bombshell - would one day become our leading philosophical guru for embracing midlife, we probably would have choked on our Diet ******* es. But here we are, fiercely navigating our own second acts, and surprisingly, it's Pam who is serving up exactly the kind of rebellious, bare-faced wisdom we didn't know we desperately needed.
Pamela Anderson keeps her makeup-free philosophy as she attends the amfAR Gala Venezia 2026 (@ Getty Images for amfAR)
Who can forget that Pamela was the poster girl for an impossible standard of hyper-glamorous beauty. With the heavy lip liner, bleach, and frosted eyeshadow, she really went for the more-is-more approach to beauty. But in more recent years? She has gloriously changed tack. She has stepped onto the world's most heavily photographed, judgmental red carpet arenas completely makeup-free (or minimally made-up sometimes). She lets her freckles shine, her fine lines show, and her natural skin breathe. And honestly, the collective sigh of relief from women over 50 could be heard from ******* e.
Pamela Anderson went for a more is more approach back in the nineties (@ WireImage)
Because let's face it: the 'anti-ageing' industry is downright exhausting. We are constantly bombarded with marketing campaigns telling us to freeze, fill, lift, and aggressively scrub away every single sign that we have actually had the audacity to live past our fortieth birthdays. It's a relentless, outrageously expensive treadmill. We are commanded to fight aging as if it's a disease, rather than the profound privilege it actually is.

Naomi Osaka's 2026 US Open came to an end at the hands of Elena Rybakina. Surprisingly the superstar was quite upbeat despite her defeat, and she explained why.
Naomi Osaka's search for a first Grand Slam **** le since 2021 will continue into 2027. The 28-year-old superstar crashed out of the US Open in the Round of 16.
Osaka surprisingly did not put up much of a fight during her match against the world No. 2 ranked Elena Rybakina. This year's Australian Open winner took care of Osaka in straight sets, winning 6-1, 6-4.
One might expect the disappointment to be great in the face of such a loss. However, the **** anese star was fairly level in defeat, and opened up on why she is not as sad as some might expect.

At a high level, Ford's operations aren't going to change much going forward. Known for its pickup trucks and SUVs, the company will remain a leading player in this segment of the automotive industry. Its Ford Blue segment will remain the most important financial driver. This division reported revenue of $26.1 billion in the second quarter, representing 54% of the company's total.

Eight saves, many of them excellent. Good distribution. And a man of the match performance. If timing is everything, Scott Bain may just have played his way into the forefront of the new Scotland head coach's thinking.
Sebastien Pocognoli will soon be announcing his first squad for the forthcoming Nations League games.
With the retirement of Craig Gordon and the lack of recent first-team minutes for Angus Gunn and Liam Kelly - the other two World Cup squad goalkeepers - is Bain the obvious answer to Pocognoli's potential problem?
On the evidence of his display against Dundee United on Saturday - without which his side may well have been beaten given the number of chances United created - he'll be very unlucky not to be recalled to the international fold.
Unsurprisingly, Bain's manager John McGlynn was happy to sing his praises.

Actress and liberal activist Jane Fonda had some surprisingly positive things to say about Paramount Skydance CEO David Ellison despite her complete opposition to a merger between Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery.
Fonda took questions this week at the DVF Awards charity gala held during the Venice Film Festival, and she said she likes Ellison "very much," which makes her vocal opposition to his $111 billion merger a bit awkward.
"It's sad for me because I like David Ellison very much," Fonda said, according to Variety.
The 88-year-old actress noted Ellison's Skydance financed her Netflix series Grace and Frankie which ended in 2022.
"David's Skydance financed Grace and Frankie, my seven-year-long run for Netflix, and I got to know him, and I like him. But that doesn't change things. This is not a personal thing. This is what it will do to the entertainment industry, which is already suffering terribly," Fonda said.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has spent 20 months promising that America was on the cusp of an economic boom. But Friday's surprisingly positive jobs report ultimately provoked frustration from Trump.
The August job numbers might have been a welcome break from after months of sluggish hiring and concerns about inflation that have been weighing on Trump and his party two months from Election Day. But speaking from the Oval Office, Trump instead launched into a grievance session about inflation and interest rates. His anger was aimed at the financial markets, the Federal Reserve and U.S. trade partners. He objected to the commonly accepted notion in economics that the surprise gain of 162,000 jobs in August could contribute to inflationary pressures.
"Success does not cause inflation. Stupidity causes inflation," Trump vented in the Oval Office, as he declared it "crazy" that the stock markets fell Friday on inflation concerns.
The combination over his second term of a drop-off in hiring and higher prices has dogged Trump and his pledge to instantly unleash historic levels of growth. "When I win the election, we will immediately begin a brand new Trump economic boom," Trump said at an August 2024 rally in North Carolina. But so far, the economy has grown at roughly 2% annually, slower than the gains during the Biden administration.
Trump blamed his inability to deliver stronger growth on higher interest rates for U.S. government debt, saying on social media that America could retaliate by stopping trade with foreign countries. Rates have been climbing in response to persistently high inflation fueled by Trump's tariffs and oil shortages from the Iran war. The national debt has now crossed the daunting threshold of $40 trillion and rates on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note on Friday rose to 4.79%.

The Cowboys have two defensive captains this season, and both were acquired by trading Micah Parsons.
Kenny Clark and Quinnen Williams are the Cowboys' defensive captains. A year ago, the Cowboys traded Parsons to the Packers for Clark and two first-round picks, and later they traded one of those picks to the Jets for Williams.
Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer singled out Williams as a leader who has meant a lot to the team.
"From the minute he got here, he's been about one thing, and it's winning," Schottenheimer said of Williams. "He's never won in the NFL and the leadership is real, the talent is incredible, but every decision that guy makes is based on what's best for us winning. I love that about him, and it's infectious. It rubs off. I love hearing him talk to the young linemen, the young defenders."
Unsurprisingly, quarterback Dak Prescott is the offensive captain and kicker Brandon Aubrey is the special teams captain. Schottenheimer said the players voted on the captains, and those four players were overwhelmingly the top vote getters.

US stocks edged lower on Friday morning as Treasury yields rose and investors ramped up bets of a Federal Reserve rate hike following a surprisingly strong August jobs report.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) fell 0.3%, and the S&P 500 (^GSPC) declined by 0.1% after the two benchmark indexes posted their best day in nearly a month. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) traded near the flat line.
All eyes were on the August payrolls report, which showed 162,000 jobs added in the previous month, blowing past economists' expectations of 55,000 jobs added. That offered a strong countersignal to the economic data released this week, which suggested the labor market remained stuck in a pattern of sluggish but stable growth.
The question on Wall Street was whether August's strong jobs number would be enough to tilt the Fed toward hiking interest rates. Following the hot jobs report, traders increased their bets of a Fed rate hike in September to roughly 60% odds, according to CME Group.
In individual stock moves, Lululemon stock tanked 16% after the athleisure apparel company cut its revenue and profit guidance, and second quarter revenue declined. There are no other notable earnings reports scheduled for Friday.

After getting a small appetizer with one Big Ten team in action in Week 0, the first weekend of the college football season is serving up a full course of Big Ten football. Week 1 of the 2026 season is upon us, and Penn State and the rest of the Big Ten teams will be in action to get the season started.
Going into the new season, there seems to be a trio of teams considered the favorites in the Big Ten. Unsurprisingly, they are Ohio State, Oregon, and defending national champion Indiana. All three will be in action in Week 1 with home games against non-power conference opponents. Oregon faces the toughest matchup of the three Big Ten heavyweights with a home game against Boise State, but all three are expected to prevail without too much trouble.
Only one Big Ten team will be on the road for a true road game this week when UCLA visits former conference in-state rival California. And the Big Ten weekend will wrap with Wisconsin taking on national **** le contender Notre Dame in Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin. We will all be tuning in Sunday night for that matchup, but our staff feels confident in suggesting the Badgers may come out on the losing end of things.
Here are our staff picks for Week 1 around the Big Ten. We will share our full Penn State game picks with final score and player of the game predictions later.

The monster tackle, the unstoppable dash, the curler into the corner: at FC Bayern there are and have been many players with unique abilities, who give us unforgettable moments. Such as Samuel Kuffour, who particularly shone against international stars. The Ghanaian defender made 277 competitive appearances for the German record champions from 1993 to 2005 and won 17 trophies with the club. Today, 3 September, he celebrates his 50th birthday – we wish him all the best.
Effenberg's strength of nerve to make it 1-1, Kahn's epic saves in the penalty shootout – those scenes from our Champions League triumph against Valencia will be remembered forever by many fans. Samuel Kuffour's contribution to the fourth Champions League ***** le might be less prominent. The Ghanaian centre-back didn't provide an iconic moment at the San Siro on 23 May 2001, but his whole performance over the 120 minutes in the Bayern back three is legendary. Like in all the previous knockout matches, he's on the pitch the whole time and intercepts one attack after the other. He closes the opponents down, throws himself into tackles and aerial duels and cuts out countless ***** . Having nullified Manchester United's Dwight Yorke and Andy Cole in the quarter-finals, and Raúl and Guti of Real Madrid in the semis, now it's John Carew's turn. The burly, 1.96-metre number nine iss barely in the game in the final. For someone of his relatively modest height of 1.78 metres, "Sammy" looks shoulders above. How does he manage to hold his own so well against the stars of his day? What characterises his defending?
Kuffour never shirks a tackle. He seeks them out, defends proactively on the front foot and puts his body on the line in a way that's rarely been seen in FCB history. Even in training, he was no different. "I hated training against him," reveals Giovane Élber, who played with him at Bayern from 1997 to 2003. Of course, this style of play brings with it a certain risk – he holds the record for the most sending-offs in an FCB shirt (eight). But fans and bosses are happy to forgive him for that. "When someone clatters into players like Sammy, then he can also make mistakes," says Uli Hoeneß. Especially since he always manages to focus in the big games.
A key component of Kuffour's game is his impressive athleticism. He has tremendous acceleration and agility, which allow him to hold his own even against technically superior players. Added to this is his exceptional jumping ability, thanks to which he easily holds his own in the air against opponents like Carew. Unsurprisingly, this also allows him to pose a constant goalscoring threat in attack, especially at set pieces. Six of his ten goals for Bayern were scored with his head. However, this does not apply to his most important goal – the winning goal in the Intercontinental Cup final against Boca Juniors in the 109th minute of extra time in November 2001. He scores that one with his right foot amid a scramble in the penalty area.

Somewhat surprisingly, Liverpool made plenty of changes to their ranks this summer.
Indeed, fans knew that moves needed to be made but, after their £450 million spend last term, most people were unsure about how much money FSG would've been willing to spend.
If Bradley Barcola hadn't joined, the window would've been an absolute travesty but, since his £100 million + move was confirmed, the Reds' spending was high again.
Despite the Frenchman's arrival, new players are still needed before it feels like the Reds are definitely ready to challenge for silverware again.
Of course, they'll still be seen as one of the Premier League's biggest teams but, unless Andoni Iraola manages to get his players performing to the standards expected of them soon, they could be left behind by their rivals.

One of the most significant moves for Real Madrid on the deadline day of the summer transfer window, surprisingly, had nothing to do with a direct departure or arrival from the club.
Instead, it was the sale of Chema Andres who moved from Stuttgart to Brighton and Hove Albion in the Premier League for a big fee, part of which Real Madrid were entitled to as they held 50% of the player's rights.
The youngster, thus, became part of a historic transfer window for Real Madrid where the club made over €200 million from youth player sales, windfalls and other similar operations.
As reported by Diario AS, Chema's move from Serie A to the Premier League closed for a sum of €23 million last night, making it a costly operation for Brighton.
Owing 50% of his rights, Real Madrid pocketed €11.5 million straight from the transfer and will be pleased with that development. There is, however, a twist.

For stocks to stay hot, they will now have to overcome a perception problem after Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh came across as surprisingly more hawkish than many investors thought when he got the gig.
"While we expect underlying fundamentals here to remain solid, the presumption of higher rates does present a sentiment headwind," Citigroup US equity strategist Scott Chronert wrote in a new note.
Delivering his debut keynote address as Fed chair at the Jackson Hole Economic Policy Symposium on Friday, Warsh adopted a hawkish stance on interest rate policy, warning that the central bank's fight against inflation is far from over.
With inflation "running above our 2% target … the Fed's predominant focus right now should be on prices," Warsh said.
Warsh characterized recent inflation numbers as "concerning" and added that "we must be confident that underlying inflation is moving to our objective, clearly and at sufficient speed … otherwise, we have work to do."

Amid their move to the UK, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's departure from Montecito was surprisingly low-key, but an insider claims the couple did attempt to have a flashy A-list farewell party.
"They started quietly feeling people out, and the response was basically crickets," a source told Rob Shuter's Naughty But Nice. "They imagined this emotional send-off surrounded by the people who welcomed them to America. Instead, everyone was busy. It was embarrassing."

Emma Thynn, Marchioness of Bath, has built a public life that stretches far beyond her aristocratic ****** le. Born Emma Claire McQuiston, she became the Marchioness of Bath after marrying Ceawlin Thynn, the 8th Marquess of Bath. Raised around British high society, Emma developed interests in art, performance and culture from an early age. She later studied art history at University College London and trained in classical acting at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art before pursuing a different creative path.
Food eventually became one of her major passions. At Longleat, the historic estate ****** ociated with the Thynn family, Emma created her food and lifestyle project Emma's Kitchen. Her cooking content includes everything from pancakes to homemade dishes inspired by life at the estate. The project allows her to combine hospitality, family traditions and creativity, showing a more relaxed side of life that contrasts with the formal events and glamorous appearances often ****** ociated with aristocracy.
Emma is also involved in charitable work and has supported Tusk, an organization dedicated to wildlife conservation across Africa. Her public profile has allowed her to draw attention to conservation while balancing responsibilities connected with family, fashion and Longleat. That variety is a major part of her appeal. One day may involve cooking or supporting a charitable cause, while another can place her in front of photographers at an international event.
Fashion remains another important part of Emma's career. She has attended the Cannes Film Festival, worked with luxury jeweler Chopard and appeared in elaborate gowns and jewelry on major red carpets. Emma has also walked in fashion shows for designers including Dolce & Gabbana and Celia Kritharioti. Her relationship with fashion has extended into ambassador and editorial work, allowing her to experience the industry from more than one perspective. Whether attending a premiere or stepping onto a runway, she appears comfortable treating clothing as another form of creative expression.
From aristocratic events and conservation projects to cooking and international fashion, Emma Thynn has created a career that refuses to fit neatly into one category. Her life at Longleat provides a traditional backdrop, but her interests have taken her into food, publishing, modeling and philanthropy. Rather than relying solely on her ****** le, she has developed a public identity built around creativity and variety, making an ordinary day in the life of the Marchioness of Bath surprisingly difficult to define.

One day after somewhat surprisingly leaving him off their initial 53-man roster, the New York Giants are signing veteran wide receiver/return man Braxton Berrios to their practice squad.
With Calvin Austin having suffered a season-ending torn ACL, Berrios figures to be the primary punt returner and part of the primary kickoff return duo with Deonte Banks. Teams can elevate players from the practice squad three times before having to add them to their 53-man rosters, and the Giants figure to do that with Berrios.
The Giants cut the 30-year-old Berrios on Sunday, enabling them to keep second-year tight end Thomas Fidone rather than exposing him to waivers in an effort to get him to the practice squad.
Entering his eighth season, Berrios has averaged 11.3 yards on 100 career punt returns, 24.9 yards on 91 kickoff returns, and has 140 career pass receptions.
Follow our practice squad tracker for all of the moves this afternoon as the Giants build their practice squad, and perhaps adjust their 53-man roster.

The New England Patriots were quite busy over the weekend, making 42 combined transactions to go from previously 91 to 53 players on their active roster. A majority of those moves were expected to happen, but the team of head coach Mike Vrabel nonetheless managed to pull off some minor surprises.
With that in mind, let's take a look at the moves that can be qualified as surprises through the lens of our established winners and losers format. It would be easy to label the 53 men on the active roster as winners and the rest as losers, but every situation is different and the reality much more nuanced than simply asking who is in or out.
QB Behren Morton: With Drake Maye a franchise-caliber player and Tommy DeVito an able and experienced backup, the top of the Patriots' quarterback depth chart was set in stone throughout the summer. The question was whether or not Morton had done enough to warrant being kept as one of the 53 players on the roster. Turns out he had. Despite some shortcomings elsewhere on the team, he made it through cutdown day as QB3 and the projected emergency option on game day.
OT Dametrious Crownover: Shortly before the cutdown deadline at 6 p.m. ET on Sunday, the Patriots made a trade with the Vikings to bring in versatile offensive lineman Walter Rouse, a player capable of lining up at both tackle and guard. And yet, despite his presence, the team decided to keep four pure tackles on the initial 53. Three of those — Will Campbell, Morgan Moses, Caleb Lomu — were set in stone to begin with, but Crownover's position seemed less secure with Rouse in the mix. However, he seemingly had nothing to worry about and done enough over the summer to secure a roster spot in lieu of nominal OT4 Marcus Bryant.
ED Quintayvious Hutchins: The defensive edge had been in the spotlight going back to the offseason, and it remains a question at this point as well. Through the cutdown deadline, however, the Patriots opted to go with four players, Hutchins among them. His inclusion over fellow edges Bradyn Swinson and Jesse Luketa might have come surprisingly, but the seventh-round draft pick has developed nicely over the summer to make the pair expendable.

Nvidia (NVDA) has reached a point where its size and market cap alone can make it look intimidating. Over the last five years, Nvidia's stock has skyrocketed by 817.8%, while its market capitalization has grown from roughly $557 billion to about $5 trillion today. That means Nvidia is now worth about 9.1 times what it was five years ago. And this phenomenal growth was not because of hype. The company is already generating tens of billions of dollars in quarterly revenue, its AI chips are at the heart of the industry's infrastructure buildout, and investors have seen its profitability grow at an incredible rate.
And its recent fiscal second-quarter earnings released on Aug. 26 show that growth is far from slowing. Surprisingly, even if Nvidia is getting dramatically bigger, the stock is still reasonably valued. What could be the reason behind it, and should investors take advantage of that? Let us find out.
