Now, after his match-winning goal in the Reds’ dramatic 3-2 victory over Newcastle United, his name has been marked out as one to remember.Having joined Liverpool’s academy from Chelsea in the…

Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry said repeatedly that the team was prepared to carry four quarterbacks on their initial 53-man roster. But on Monday night, the organization shifted course once it received trade interest in Kenny Pickett from the Las Vegas Raiders. The Browns announced that they have traded Pickett to the Raiders in exchange for a 2026 fifth-round pick.Raiders backup quarterback Aidan O’Connell broke his wrist in the preseason finale vs. the Arizona Cardinals this past weekend and is expected to miss 6-8 weeks, per ESPN.

Mark Vientos?Oh yeah, he’s definitely back. It wasn’t too long ago that the youngster was losing out on playing time to Brett Baty and Ronny Mauricio, but of late he’s been delivering big hits when the Mets have needed it the most. On Monday, he got the offense going against Phillies ace lefty Cristopher Sanchez. After Pete Alonso singled and advanced his way into scoring position on a balk, the righty was sure to make Sanchez pay, as he laced an opposite-field RBI double down the left-field line.   He would score just one pitch later on Brandon Nimmo’s RBI single. Vientos came through again…

Dallas is stacked in the frontcourt. All-Star Anthony Davis is the anchor and will start at the four, although he will play clutch time minutes at center. Derrick Lilvely II likely starts at center with Daniel Gafford behind him. Then there is No. 1 pick Cooper Flagg, who ultimately is going to be a power forward in the NBA, possibly eventually playing more of a point forward (with Lively and Davis starting, Flagg likely starts this season at the three).Then there is P.J. Washington. Wherever he fits in off the bench, expect the Mavericks to extend the contract of the…
