Browns, Nick Chubb rework deal to keep RB in Cleveland

Nick Chubb’s uncertain future has prompted the Cleveland Browns to negotiate an adjusted contract with the star running back. Chubb and the Browns have agreed to a reworked deal to lower his base salary of $11.75 million with the chance to earn it back via incentives, NFL Network Insiders Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero reported on Thursday, per sources. Chubb suffered a significant knee injury in Week 2 of the 2023 season, ending his campaign immediately and throwing his NFL future into doubt. It wasn’t Chubb’s first encounter with a serious knee injury, but at 28 years old and with a relatively […]

Fowler wins Par 3 Contest after 3-year absence from Masters

Rickie Fowler has returned to the Masters after a three-year absence, and already he’s been able to lift up a trophy. The question now is whether that will cost him an opportunity to slip on a jacket. Fowler won the traditional Par 3 Contest at Augusta National on Wednesday, making his way around what many consider the most picturesque piece of the property in 5-under par. That was good for a two-stroke victory over Sepp Straka, J.T. Poston and Santiago De La Fuente, and earn Fowler the glittering crystal bowl that goes to the winner. Yet nobody has won the Par 3 Contest and the […]

Fury warns he could beat Usyk after ’15 pints’ as fight looms

Tyson Fury stated he could defeat Oleksandr Usyk with no training and after “sinking 15 pints of Peroni” the night before in a news conference on Wednesday ahead of their title fight next month. WBC champion Fury and Usyk, who holds the IBF, WBA and WBO straps, will fight for the undisputed heavyweight championship on May 18 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. While Fury praised Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs) as a great champion at cruiserweight level, he said the step up will prove too much when they clash in just over a month’s time. “I think if I didn’t train at […]

PSG favorites to reach semifinal despite Barcelona win

Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez stated Paris Saint-Germain remain favorites to win the teams’ Champions League quarterfinal tie, despite his side winning Wednesday’s first leg 3-2 in the French capital. Raphinha scored twice and substitute Andreas Christensen headed the winner the 77th minute at the Parc des Princes to give Barcelona the edge heading back to Spain for the second leg next week. “PSG are still the favorites,” Xavi said in his postgame news conference. “It will be very difficult to win in Barcelona. “Today we played well because we were united defensively. I’m very proud, everything worked well. We have to improve our concentration in the first […]

Struggling Pirates closer David Bednar booed at home

David Bednar’s first three seasons in Pittsburgh largely have been charmed ones as the hometown kid developed into a two-time All-Star closer for a team convinced it’s on the rise. And while the Pirates might be on their way to contention, Bednar is faltering. The right-hander blew his third save in four opportunities on Tuesday when Detroit rallied for a 5-3 victory. The most jarring moment wasn’t the walk or the two batters he hit that fueled the Tigers’ comeback, but the sound of Bednar being booed at home by a crowd that has emphatically embraced him from the moment he arrived from […]

Novak Djokovic eases into third round at Monte Carlo Masters

Novak Djokovic made light work of his return to clay and did not face a break point when defeating Roman Safiullin 6-1, 6-2 to reach the third round of the Monte Carlo Masters on Tuesday. Serving for the match, Djokovic won on his second match point when Safiullin’s return sank into the net. Overall, Djokovic could perhaps have been a little more clinical, since he forced 19 break points and converted just five of them. It was the top-ranked Djokovic’s first clay-court tournament since winning the French Open last year to clinch a men’s-record 23rd major title. The Serbian player added the […]

Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo helped off court with calf injury

Two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo exited the Milwaukee Bucks’ 104-91 victory over the Boston Celtics in the third quarter Tuesday night due to an injury to his left calf. Antetokounmpo was heading up the court following a made 3-pointer from Celtics guard Derrick White when the Bucks star crumbed to floor without contact while grabbing at his left leg. He stayed on the floor as the Bucks called a timeout, and his teammates helped carry him off the court and toward the locker room. Antetokounmpo was officially ruled out of the game in the fourth quarter with what the team called a left soleus strain. The soleus is a […]

William Byron leads Hendrick Motorsports to 1-2-3 finish at Martinsville

William Byron stated he had nightmares coming to Martinsville Speedway this weekend, remembering his last visit when he struggled to a 13th-place finish. He not only overcame those fears, he put a cherry on top of the weekend when Hendrick Motorsports celebrated the anniversary of its first victory 40 years ago by picking up No. 305. “It was one of the worst experiences as a team, but one of the best experiences to realize the resilience that our team has. And I think that that showed today,” Byron said of last October’s penultimate race of the season. This Sunday was […]

Ferrari’s gains see it emerge as Red Bull’s nearest rival

Although still 20 seconds shy of Max Verstappen’s Red Bull at the chequered flag, Ferrari’s performance at the Japanese Grand Prix showed just how much progress the team has made with its winter of car development. Just six months ago, the Italian team concluded the same race 40 seconds adrift of race winner Verstappen, ranking fourth and sixth in the final classification compared to Sunday’s third and fourth. Defeating Red Bull in a consecutive fight (i.e., without the help of a Verstappen retirement, as happened in Australia this year) still seems like a stretch, but on the right circuit in the right circumstances, […]

Real Madrid want Santiago Bernabeu roof shut against Man City

Real Madrid have asked UEFA for approval to play Manchester City under a closed roof at the Santiago Bernabeu in an effort to boost the atmosphere for Tuesday’s Champions League quarterfinal first-leg tie versus the Premier League side, sources have told ESPN. City, who won their first Champions League title last season, are due to face Madrid for the third-successive season in the competition. Pep Guardiola’s team drew 1-1 at the Bernabeu in last season’s semifinal first-leg and lost 3-1 in Madrid in the semifinal second-leg 12 months earlier. But after losing 5-1 on aggregate in last season’s semifinal, Madrid are now attempting to take […]
