How one 49ers rookie has become team’s most improved player

The San Francisco 49ers defense was expected to have its ups and downs this season, as they entered the year with several rookies earning key snaps, including first-round pick Mykel Williams, second-round pick Alfred Collins, third-round pick Upton Stout, and fifth-round pick Marques Sigle. Things have fizzled out from there, as Williams tore his ACL, […]

RB David Montgomery’s future with Detroit Lions in question

One of the more disappointing developments from the 2025 season was the use of running back David Montgomery. The Lions’ No. 2 running back saw is carries drop from 185 in 2024 to just 158 in 2025. His playing time dropped from about 28 snaps per game to 24. The Lions continued to insist they […]

Episode 44 of the Bleacher Nation Cubs Podcast is officially live! In this week’s episode, Brett asks me about how I broke yesterday’s big trade. I tried to say as much as I could without spoiling any sources. I probably said too much. After that, we discuss Edward Cabrera, the pitcher, as well as the impact his presence has on the Cubs both this season and beyond. After the break, in our transaction corner, Brett and I talk about the various free-agent bats still available, specific...

What Tricks Does Ben Johnson Have Up His Sleeve This Week?

I fully expect Ben Johnson to be deep in his bag this week. Days after the Bears put together a bland and unimagintive game plan in their regular-season finale against the Detroit Lions, Chicago’s football team received good news from the injury report with wide receivers Rome Odunze and DJ Moore (as well as starting left tackle Ozzy Trapilo) garnering full participation status with no game day designation for Saturday’s upcoming playoff game against the Green Bay Packers. So, the way I s...

Report: Veteran Jets D-Man Luke Schenn Open To A Trade

Being a 'seller' as we get into trade season is not the position the Winnipeg Jets expected to find themselves in this year. But here we are. The Jets are dead last in the entire NHL with just 35 points, a full 11 points back of a Wild Card spot and seven other teams ahead of them.  With that, some of their veterans are becoming trade candidates. None make more sense than Luke Schenn. A two-time Stanley Cup winner, the rugged, stay-at-home defenseman is a natural for any playoff teams in ...

Hafley might not be around to see that plan through, though, as he’s been a hot name on the […]

Fiesta Bowl Preview/How To Watch/Open Thread

Apparently, college football season isn’t over. It certainly may feel that way to Bulldog fans who have moved on to the twists and turns of the transfer portal and (I can’t believe I’m typing this) basketball season. But four teams remain in the hunt to hoist the Dr. Pepper national championship trophy. Two of them […]
