The Chargers signed safety Tony Jefferson on Friday, the team revealed. Jefferson spent last season as a scouting intern with the Baltimore Ravens after announcing his retirement in May 2023.

O’Connell confirms Sam Darnold will start at Vikings training camp

Sam Darnold will continue as the Minnesota Vikings’ lead quarterback when training camp opens next month, coach Kevin O’Connell stated Wednesday as the team wrapped up its final OTA of the spring. O’Connell stopped short of projecting anything beyond that, saying he plans for a “competitive” training camp at many positions. The Vikings have three other quarterbacks on their roster: Rookie J.J. McCarthy and veterans Nick Mullens and Jaren Hall. “We haven’t had to put out a depth chart or anything like that,” O’Connell said, “but yeah, I would say Sam would be the guy I would look to based upon the spring he’s had, and really […]

Mike Tomlin, the NFL’s longest-tenured coach, has received an extension from the Pittsburgh Steelers that puts him under contract through the 2027 season. Tomlin, entering his 18th season at the helm of the Steelers, signed a three-year extension, the team revealed Monday.

The Lakers’ pursuit of Hurley to become the franchise’s next coach has accelerated and the sides are already discussing the contractual parameters of a potential deal that would be significant in its length and salary, sources said.

Cardinals’ Kyler Murray ‘locked in’ after late start in 2023

Nine practices into OTAs, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray says he can already see the differences being in the second year of a new system. According to Murray, that has led him to also see what’s ahead for a team that went 4-13 last year, but 3-4 after he returned in Week 10 from an ACL injury. “I don’t put any limitation on what we can do,” Murray said Wednesday in his first public remarks this offseason. Murray missed last offseason while he rehabilitated his injury and learned new schemes and a new front office. This offseason, he said, has been spent building on […]

Mirra Andreeva stuns Aryna Sabalenka to reach French Open semifinals

With the insouciance of a 17-year-old having the time of her life here, Mirra Andreeva says she and her coach work out a game plan before a tennis match — and then she forgets all about it, preferring to just wing it. Seems to be working out fine so far: The unseeded Russian is the youngest Grand Slam semifinalist in more than a quarter century. Playing in only her sixth major tournament, Andreeva got past an ill No. 2 seed Aryna Sabalenka 6-7 (5), 6-4, 6-4 at the French Open on Wednesday. On Thursday, Andreeva goes up versus another surprising player: No. 12 Jasmine Paolini, a 28-year-old […]

Celtics handle Pacers, take 2-0 Eastern Conference finals lead

Jaylen Brown was a big enough problem for the Indiana Pacers even before an All-NBA snub that may have given him an added desire to show how much he can do for the Boston Celtics. “I think he cares about it in a way that motivates him, and I think he doesn’t really care about it at all,” Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla stated after watching Brown match his playoff career high of 40 points in Boston’s 126-110 victory over Indiana in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals Thursday night. “He understands that winning is the most important thing,” Mazzulla said. “He just cares […]

DE Crosby gets $7.2M raise from Raiders in reworked contract

The Las Vegas Raiders are giving three-time Pro Bowl defensive end Maxx Crosby a $6 million raise for the upcoming season without adding any years to his current contract, league sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Thursday. The Raiders are also moving an additional $1.2 million into the 2025 season, according to the sources.

Jaylen Brown’s 3 rescues Celtics in Game 1 thriller vs. Pacers

The Indiana Pacers, massive underdogs in these Eastern Conference finals, coming off a dramatic triumph over the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden to advance to this series 48 hours earlier, had the ball and were up three with 10 seconds left. They only needed to inbound the ball and hit a free throw to seal the victory. But then Indiana threw the ball away, giving the Celtics life. And after a spectacular inbounds pass from Jrue Holiday — one of many spectacular moments from him en route to a 28-point, 7-rebound, 8-assist, 3-steal performance — to Jaylen Brown in the corner permitted Brown to rise […]
