The Chargers dropped their final injury report of Week One and it's about as clean as you could ask for.
Edge rusher Tuli Tuipulotu (hip) is listed as questionable after being a limited participant at practice for most of the week. He dealt with a lower-body injury to begin training camp and it looks like the team is still playing it cautious with him now that the regular season is here.
Cornerback Deane Leonard is the only player listed as out for Sunday's game after missing the entire week of practice. Leonard is the team's fourth cornerback and the best coverage player on special teams. His presence will be missed in the third phase of the game.
game status for week 1 vs. AZ

QUESTIONABLE — Tuli Tuipulotu

OUT — Deane Leonard
With Leonard out, expect Nikko Reed or Kaiir Elam to be elevated for game day. Reed likely gets the nod as he has the greater experience pool in O'Leary's defense over Elam who was just signed following final cuts at the start of the month.

Though it's not foolproof investing wisdom, and it is stock-specific, there is something to the "boring is beautiful" thesis. It's one reason that so many income investors and risk-averse market participants embrace consumer staples stocks.
The other side of the boring coin is that mundane doesn't captivate hearts, minds, and investor capital when growth stocks are in vogue, and that's very much the case these days. Many market participants are chasing tech stocks and pondering what's next in the world of artificial intelligence (AI).

Those trends don't necessarily mean that Wall Street is in the midst of another round of Dutch tulip mania, nor that a bubble will imminently burst, but investors' adulation for what they perceive as glitzy names helps explain how some defensive stocks can slip through the cracks, even when those companies are delivering solid showings. Such is life for Sysco (NYSE: SYY), the king of food distributors.

AbbVie Inc. (NYSE:ABBV) reported its first-quarter 2026 financial results, delivering worldwide net revenues of $15.002 billion, an increase of 12.4% on a reported basis (10.3% operationally). The company posted GAAP diluted EPS of $0.39 and adjusted diluted EPS of $2.65, which exceeded internal expectations despite including a $0.41 per share unfavorable impact from acquired IPR&D and milestone expenses. Grounded in this solid operational momentum, ABBV raised its full-year 2026 adjusted diluted EPS guidance range to $14.08–$14.28.
Adding to its commercial trajectory, AbbVie's Allergan Aesthetics announced on July 17 that the European Commission approved Boey (trenibotulinumtoxinE) across all 30 European Economic Area countries. Marked as the first and only rapid-onset, short-duration botulinum neurotoxin serotype E in Europe, Boey targets the temporary improvement of moderate to severe frown lines with an onset as fast as eight hours and results lasting two to three weeks. This regulatory milestone follows approval in Canada earlier in the year and expands AbbVie's high-margin aesthetic portfolio beyond traditional Botox offerings.
Following these catalysts, Wall Street **** yst revisions have turned increasingly positive. On July 22, Canaccord raised its price target on AbbVie to $282 from $273 while maintaining a Buy rating. The firm updated its financial model ahead of Q2 earnings, citing expected strength across core prescription volume trends and recent positive developmental wins.
This momentum brings up a pivotal question: Does AbbVie's successful pivot away from legacy reliance justify higher valuation multiples, or do long-term debt levels and margin pressures cap future upside?
Proponents of the bullish case emphasize AbbVie Inc. (NYSE:ABBV)'s high-performing post-Humira growth engine. Top-line expansion is overwhelmingly driven by its flagship immunology **** ets, Skyrizi and Rinvoq, which generated $4.483 billion (+30.9% reported) and $2.119 billion (+23.3% reported) in Q1 net revenues, respectively. Rapid, durable share gains across multiple indication rollouts highlight a strong product-market fit that effectively absorbs legacy biosimilar erosion.

Demi Moore wore a strapless mint green micro minidress from Balenciaga for her daughter's wedding after-party. Designed by Pierpaolo Piccioli, the dress featured a scale-like woven texture and a straight-across, rimmed neckline on the boned bustier bodice. It cinched at the waist before flowing down into a tulip-shaped bubble miniskirt.
Deep box pleating around the waist gave the skirt its rounded, architectural volume, creating an hourglass silhouette. The strapless neckline highlighted her bare shoulders while the short skirt left her long legs on full display. The dress also had concealed pockets on both sides.

El SEGUNDO, Calif. -- The two Chargers players receiving the most headlines outside of Justin Herbert, Jim Harbaugh and Mike McDaniel spoke to the media Tuesday afternoon.
Left tackle Rashawn Slater has missed the last four days of practice, while edge rusher Tuli Tuipulotu didn't practice at the start of training camp but has fully participated over the last week.
Starting with Slater, he suffered a torn patellar tendon on Aug. 7 during training camp in 2025, which caused him to miss the entire season.
He has been working his way back and participated in every practice until the pads came on in San Diego a week ago. Slater had a "minor flare-up" in his surgically repaired knee when he left practice early in San Diego last week.
While Chargers fans have been freaking out on social media, Slater called it, "Nothing that's concerning."

Until the UCLA Bruins are in College Football Playoff contention, which has yet to happen in the CFP era, all UCLA fans can do is root for the demise of the rival USC Trojans. USC also has yet to make a CFP appearance but that might change in 2026.
The Trojans went 9-4 last season and added another strong recruiting class, which should only help USC's depth while giving head coach Lincoln Riley fewer excuses for missing the playoffs.
Riley has been able to churn out strong offenses, the big questions for the Trojans reside on the defensive side of the ball. While UCLA had the worst scoring defense in the Big Ten last year, USC wasn't too far behind with the eighth-worst defense in the conference.
With the USC defense being the question mark, Trojans Wire writer Matt Zemek discussed whether or not he believes that the Trojans' defense can take a step in 2026 under first-year defensive coordinator Gary Patterson.
"I am skeptical about the defense. It got bullied last year by the best opponents on the Trojans' schedule. Lincoln Riley coaches soft defenses. It is what it is. That's his track record. USC fans don't like it, but they really can't argue the point, either. Lincoln Riley has to prove he can field a team with a snot-knocking defense," Zemek said. "Until that's proven, Riley and USC by extension have simply not earned the benefit of the doubt. The defensive line is easily the most important position group. Jahkeem Stewart is the headliner, but even if he plays well, he can't do it himself. USC's defense was bad even when Tuli Tuipulotu was playing elite ball in 2022. It can't be one guy. It takes a village, as the saying goes. The jury is out on whether USC has that village in 2026. Those guys have to prove the skeptics wrong, and I'm one of the doubters."

Zoe Saldaña knows how to command attention without sacrificing sophistication. At the New York premiere of Lioness Season 3 on July 29, the Oscar-winning actress delivered one of her boldest fashion moments yet, stepping onto the gray carpet in a dramatic black Balmain dress that combined a dangerously high slit with an ultra-plunging neckline.
Saldaña chose a black Balmain Fall 2026 design that reinvented the classic little black dress with couture-level craftsmanship. The textured fabric featured intricate pleating throughout the bodice and skirt, creating movement and dimension from every angle.

The gown featured a plunging V-neckline extending almost to the waist, structured shoulders that added architectural shape, long fitted sleeves, a ruched waist that highlighted her silhouette, and a dramatic tulip-style skirt with a daring center slit that climbed high up the thigh.

Another ranking, and another list where the Chargers find themselves just outside the top 10.
ESPN recently ranked NFL teams based on their under-25 talent, and the Chargers came in at No. 11, narrowly missing out on a spot among the league's top young cores.
"The top young player for the Chargers is Alt, who is 23 years old and tasked with protecting quarterback Justin Herbert. Running back Omarion Hampton and tight end Oronde Gadsden (both 23) performed well for the Chargers in 2025. Wide receivers Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston and Tre' Harris are all 24.
"On defense, the underrated slot cornerback Tarheeb Still is still just 24 years old, while edge rusher Tuli Tuipulotu will turn 24 on Sept. 3. However, rookie first-rounder Mesidor does not qualify for this ranking, as he turned 25 in April."
The Chargers dropped one spot in the list compared to last year. Notable teams ahead of Los Angeles in this category are the Raiders, Browns and the Texans.

Each season, Tuli Tuipulotu is making his name known as a top pass rusher in the NFL. The Chargers' faith in him is growing. They moved on from former top draft pick Joey Bosa and let Odafe Oweh walk. Tuli Tuipulotu is becoming the cornerstone of the Chargers' defense, and he is getting more respect as a result.
In a recent article, Bobby Kownack breaks down Tuli Tuipulotu making the NFL top 100 players list. Here is what he had to say about Tuipulotu:
"Incremental improvements through his first three years led to a certified breakout for Tuipulotu last season. The 23-year-old officially emerged from the shadow of his pass-rushing mentor Khalil Mack and lapped the rest of L.A's edge defenders, as well, leading the team in sacks for a second straight campaign to make his first Pro Bowl. His 13 sacks doubled his career total, and his pressure percentage jumped from 10.4 across 2023-24 to 15.6. Now, the question is whether he has yet another leap in store for 2026."
Tuli Tuipulotu continues to develop his game, and this past season, he put it all together, leading to a Pro Bowl nod for him. When teams face the Chargers, #45 is the main guy they are preparing for all week long. Getting on the NFL's top 100 players list is just the beginning for Tuli. This upcoming season should bring even more dominance for the former Trojan.

The summer tradition of the "NFL Top 100" continues this offseason. This week, players No. 90-81 are being revealed and, on Wednesday, player No. 86 was revealed. So far, no Arizona Cardinals have been named, but player No. 86 is one the Cardinals will face this coming season.
Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Tuli Tuipulotu is No. 86 of the "NFL Top 100."
Tuipulotu makes the top 100 for the first time in his career. He made the Pro Bowl for the first time after a career-high 13 sacks for the Chargers in 2025. He had 20 tackles for loss and 23 quarterback hits.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers tackle Tristan Wirfs said that Tuipulotu "hits like a truck."
Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty called him a "great player," a "phyiscal dude" and noted he has "great moves off the edge."

Colleen Zenk was arrested last month on charges of DUI in Naples, Florida. According to court documents, the actress agreed to perform field sobriety exercises. Zenk is best known for her appearances in The Young and the Restless and As the World Turns.
According to official records from the Collier County Sheriff's Office and the County Clerk's Office, police arrested Colleen Zenk on Friday, May 15, 2026, at 7:35 p.m. EDT, in Florida. The actress is facing two misdemeanor DUI charges, with bond set at $1,000 for each.
The arrest report notes that a witness told the deputies they saw Zenk backing out of a handicap parking ******* e near a Tommy Bahama store when her car hit another vehicle close by. The responding sergeant reported that he smelled alcohol, leading deputies to begin a DUI investigation.
As per the report, Zenk told the authorities that she had consumed "two wine cups" while she was at Bar Tulia. The actress then agreed to perform field sobriety tests. The arresting officer reported observing several signs of impairment in Zenk during those exercises. She reportedly displayed issues with balance and had difficulty following instructions (via Soap Opera Network).
Authorities arrested Zenk following the exercises. The report notes that Zenk later provided two breath samples, yielding 0.206 and 0.192 BAC, which is far above the legal limit of 0.08. According to court records, the actress posted bond on May 16.

With just over a month left until training camp gets underway, the Minnesota Vikings are likely in the process of deciding what final moves they need to make to shore up their roster before everyone gets together in Eagan to prepare for the 2026 NFL season. Lots of people have suggestions, but one outlet has suggested a move for a relatively big name that. . .well, might not be a terribly good move for our favorite team.
ESPN has an article up that suggests one last offseason move for each of the 32 NFL teams, whether that move be a free agent signing, a trade, a contract extension, or whatever it may be. In the case of the Vikings, the move that they suggest is signing edge rusher Haason Reddick, late of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and still floating around the free agency market. Here’s the logic behind their suggestion.
Another NFC North team, another questionable depth chart on the edge. The issue here is not Dallas Turner and Andrew Van Ginkel but rather the players behind them, led by 2025 fifth-round pick Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins and 2024 undrafted free agent Bo Richter.
Reddick had only 2.5 sacks last season, the lowest of the three best available veteran pass rushers, but his 12% pass rush win rate was still impressive: similar to the Chargers’ Tuli Tuipulotu and just ahead of the Steelers’ T.J. Watt. Reddick’s history of playing in flexible 3-4 defenses makes him the best fit for defensive coordinator Brian Flores because he has more experience dropping into coverage on complicated zone blitzes.
It wasn’t that long ago when Reddick was one of the NFL’s premier pass rushers. In 2022, he racked up 16 sacks for the Philadelphia Eagles, was a second-team All-Pro selection, and finished fourth in Defensive Player of the Year voting. He followed that up with an 11-sack campaign for the Eagles, and was then traded to the New York Jets for a mid-round draft choice.

Mexico ended their preparations for the 2026 World Cup by crushing Serbia in their final friendly by a 5-1 score. Mexico completely dominated the match and bounced back after Serbia got an early lead, to make it 3 out of 3 in their last friendly tour. Mexico will now face off a week for now against South Africa in the 2026 World Cup opening match.
The 1st half started with Mexico coming out with Raul Jimenez up top for the first time in the last friendly tour prior to the World Cup. A low right footed shot inside the area from Brian Gutierrez forced a save from Serbia’s goalkeeper, Filip Stankovic. A cross into the area was headed from close range by Julian Quiñones forced and incredible save from Stankovic. A great back heeled pass from Jimenez allowed Gutierrez to get into the area but his right footed shot went wide in a bad miss. After a bad mistake from Jesus Gallardo gifted the ball to Petar Stanic, he was allowed to get into the area and get off a right footed shot past Mexico’s goalkeeper, Raul Rangel to score and give Serbia the 1-0 lead against the run of play. Mexico had completely dominated the match but a bad mistake allowed Serbia the shock lead. After getting the ball in the area, Jimenez got off a right footed shot that was well saved by Stankovic. A great combination play between Alvaro Fidalgo and Gutierrez ended with the ball left there for a close range volley shot from Quiñones but it went wide in a bad miss. Off a corner kick, the cross into the area found Cesar Montes but his header went wide. A cross into the area from Gallardo would find Jimenez but he whiffed on the left footed shot. The ball would then fall to Gutierrez but his left footed shot was blocked wide. In the ensuing corner kick, the short pass would find Gutierrez, who got a good cross into the area where Johan Vasquez would get a close range header that went past Stankovic and into the net to score and tie the match at 1-1. It was another set piece and another headed goal from Vasquez, who had doubled the amount of goals he scored for the NT in a week. A great cross into the area from Gallardo would be missed by Jimenez. A shot from outside the area by Quiñones looked like it forced a save from Stankovic although the referee ruled it had gone wide without a touch by the goalkeeper. A cross into the area was wonderfully volleyed by Jimenez but right to Stankovic. A back pass by Stefan Bukinac was terribly misjudged by Stankovic and the ball would go in for an own goal to give Mexico the 2-1 lead. The own goal was given to Bukinac but the mistake had been totally on Stankovic. The halftime whistle blew and although Mexico only had a one goal lead, they had completely dominated and deserved a bigger lead.
The 2nd half started with Mexico subbing out Erik Lira for Edson Alvarez. Serbia subbed out Petar Stanic, Nikola Tulic and Lazar Randelovic for Dejan Zukic, Mihailo Ivanovic and Veljko Birmancevic. Jimenez would get the ball in the area and get off a left fo
