TOPFormer NFL champ Roger Shoals dead at 86
Roger Shoals, a former NFL offensive tackle and 1964 champion with the Cleveland Browns, died Monday at age 86. He played nine NFL seasons, spending his first two years with Cleveland, followed by seven with the Detroit Lions and one with the Denver Broncos. Selected by the Browns in the 16th round of the 1961 NFL Draft after playing college football at Maryland, Shoals was also chosen by the Dallas Texans in the 1962 AFL Draft but signed with Cleveland. His career began in 1963, and he won an NFL championship the following season—a victory he later described as "heaven," noting he wore his championship ring constantly despite curious onlookers. Standing 6-foot-4 and 260 pounds, Shoals started 70 of his 104 career NFL games, including every contest in his final four seasons. He notably served as a key blocker for Hall of Fame running back Jim Brown during his tenure with the Browns. Post-retirement, Shoals was known for his "affable," "engaging," and "candid" personality, frequently speaking at banquets. He later lived in Gladwyne, Pennsylvania, working as vice president of sales at Gould Paper Corp. and co-owning a Pennsylvania car dealership. Tributes highlighted his "big caring heart" and relentless "spirit for hard work and success," with friends recalling how he mentored loved ones through life's challenges. Shoals is survived by his wife Jean, children Mike and Hollie, four grandchildren, two brothers, and a sister.

TOPReport: Newcastle could “listen to offers” for “very talented” midfielder this summer
Newcastle United midfielder Lewis Miley is reportedly facing potential departure from the club during the upcoming summer transfer window. The 19-year-old is considered a highly promising talent and is well-regarded at Newcastle. However, the situation arises because Newcastle United are actively seeking to sign a new midfielder this summer. Former Premier League scout Mick Brown has suggested that this potential incoming signing could result in Miley falling further down the midfield pecking order at St James' Park.

Dolphins make a brutal QB cut in latest 53-man roster prediction
The Miami Dolphins have entered training camp with roster decisions looming, needing to finalize their 53-man roster by the first week of September in a single cut-down period. Rookies are present, but not all, including seventh-round pick Quinn Ewers, are guaranteed spots. The quarterback position might see only two players kept: Tua Tagovailoa and Zach Wilson. Rookie Quinn Ewers, despite being drafted, faces uncertainty. If he doesn't impress sufficiently in camp to attract waiver claims, the Dolphins may attempt to place him on the practice squad. At running back, the Dolphins are expected to carry five players: De'Von Achane, Jaylen Wright, Ollie Gordon, Alexander Mattison, and fullback Alec Ingold. Speculation about Mattison being cut after Gordon's drafting is countered by the team's recognized need for depth, making him likely to stay. The wide receiver group projects five spots: Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Malik Washington, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, and Dee Eskridge. Erik Ezukanma faces a challenge to retain the WR5 position, while rookie Malik Washington has a significant opportunity after missing last season. The team may add another veteran receiver during camp. Tight end depth changed significantly with Jonnu Smith departing via trade and Darren Waller coming out of retirement to join Pharaoh Brown. Three spots are projected: Brown, Waller, and Julian Hill. Competition is expected for the spots behind Brown and Waller, and while Hill has an advantage for the third spot, it's not guaranteed. The team ideally wants four tight ends but lacks depth elsewhere. The offensive line may consist of eight players initially: Austin Jackson, Jonah Savaiinaea, Aaron Brewer, James Daniels, Patrick Paul, Jackson Carman, Larry Borom, and Liam Eichenberg. Keeping more linemen (like Andrew Meyer) is possible if the roster expands to 10, but with only 8 or 9 spots, the final position might be between Eichenberg and Kion Smith. Depth concerns at other positions and practice squad flexibility influence these decisions. Defensive tackles listed include Zach Sieler, Kenneth Grant, Jordan Phillips, Benito Jones, and Ben Stille. (Note: The original text ends abruptly at DT).

Dominic Solanke reacts as Everton contract officially signed
Tottenham striker Dominic Solanke, signed from Bournemouth last summer for a significant fee, has yet to consistently showcase his best form for the club, partly due to injury issues. There is hope that new head coach Thomas Frank can help Solanke kickstart his Spurs career in the upcoming season. Tottenham is actively looking to strengthen its forward line this summer, evidenced by the £55 million signing of Mohammed Kudus from West Ham, with other potential targets like Morgan Gibbs-White being considered before the transfer window closes. Chairman Daniel Levy is showing backing for Frank through these signings. Solanke appears receptive to this influx of attacking talent, which could benefit him. However, he maintains strong links to his former Bournemouth teammates, as shown by him liking an Instagram post from Mark Travers after Travers signed for Everton from Bournemouth. While Solanke showed flashes of excellence in his debut Spurs season, fans and the club expect more. The club hopes he can replicate his impressive final Bournemouth season (21 goals, 4 assists in all competitions) while wearing Tottenham white, especially if further quality attacking players join the squad.

NFL FUTURES: LOCK IN THESE THREE RUSHING OVER/UNDERS BEFORE THE 2025 SEASON KICKS OFF
Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson headlines the list of best rushing yard bets for the 2025 NFL season, following an impressive 2024 campaign. Despite playing in an inconsistent offense, Robinson handled over 300 carries and added 60 receptions. With a new quarterback (Michael Penix Jr.) and offensive coordinator (Zac Robinson) installing a new system, the Falcons are expected to improve, potentially unlocking another level for Robinson. He possesses a rare blend of speed (4.46) and power (215 lbs), maintaining 4.8 yards per carry and a high elusiveness rating despite being a focal point for defenses. Increased chunk runs are anticipated, as he had only one 30+ yard run last season and none over 40 yards in his career so far. Las Vegas Raiders rookie Ashton Jeanty, the No. 6 overall pick, is projected for a featured role. Hailed as a top prospect, the 5-foot-9, 211-pound Boise State product combines a compact build with elite burst and speed (21.7 mph in-game max). He proved capable of handling heavy college workloads and joins a Raiders backfield that lacked production in 2024, with only veteran Raheem Mostert added as insurance. Under new offensive coordinator Chip Kelly, known for implementing fast-paced, run-heavy offenses (historically Top 15 in rushing), Jeanty is expected to dominate early-down work and thrive quickly as the lead back. Los Angeles Chargers first-round pick Omarion Hampton (No. 22 overall) is another rookie rusher highlighted after dominant back-to-back 1,500-yard seasons at North Carolina. The 6-foot, 221-pound back tested as a power-speed threat (4.46 40, 38" vertical) at the combine. His production profile and physical tools align perfectly with the Chargers' run-first offensive philosophy under Jim Harbaugh and coordinator Greg Roman. Although projected to start in a timeshare with veteran Najee Harris (on a one-year deal and struggling with efficiency), Hampton's role is expected to grow quickly. He will benefit from running behind a strong offensive line and defenses being unable to solely focus on the run due to quarterback Justin Herbert and an upgraded receiving corps.

Chargers offseason upgrades around Justin Herbert falling apart already
The Los Angeles Chargers' training camp has started with significant setbacks, undermining their offseason efforts to upgrade the offense around quarterback Justin Herbert. Three key offensive upgrades are already sidelined: running back J.K. Dobbins suffered an injury in a fireworks accident (practice status unclear), wide receiver DJ Chark Jr. begins camp on the PUP list, and rookie receiver Brenden Rice is holding out in a contract dispute, marking the NFL's first rookie holdout. These absences directly impact the Chargers' planned offensive diversification, specifically hindering improvements to the ground game, vertical passing, and play action. Furthermore, Dobbins needs to learn the new offense, Chark needs to rebuild chemistry with Herbert, and Rice requires adaptation to the NFL, quarterback, and system. Consequently, the Chargers enter camp relying heavily on rookie running back Omarion Hampton, two interior offensive linemen who struggled last season, and receivers Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston. This situation puts the team "off on the wrong foot" at the start of training camp.

Eagles can erase Bryce Huff disaster with signing eight-time Pro Bowler
The Philadelphia Eagles, after releasing Bryce Huff following a disappointing signing, are considering replacing him with veteran edge rusher Von Miller. CBS Sports identified the Eagles as an ideal landing spot for Miller following significant losses on their defensive line in free agency, including sack leaders Josh Sweat (8.5 sacks in 2024) and Milton Williams, plus the retirement of veteran leader Brandon Graham. Miller, an eight-time Pro Bowler and future Hall of Famer, is seen as a potential fit because the Eagles wouldn't require him to start but rather to contribute as a situational pass rusher on key downs, particularly third down – a role he successfully filled for the Buffalo Bills over the past three seasons. Although not at his peak, Miller recorded six sacks last year and has achieved at least five sacks in most recent seasons. His primary role in Philadelphia would be to provide pass rush pressure on third downs, allowing younger players like Nolan Smith Jr. and Jalyx Hunt to handle earlier downs. Beyond on-field production, Miller's 15 years of experience would provide valuable veteran mentorship for the Eagles' young edge rushers, effectively serving as an on-field coach. An additional connection facilitating a potential signing is Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio, who was Miller's head coach during their time together with the Denver Broncos. Miller is viewed as a natural fit for Fangio's defensive scheme. Financially, the move is considered feasible for Eagles GM Howie Roseman, as Miller would likely command a cheap, one-year deal, contrasting sharply with the costly Huff signing. The article suggests adding Miller could bolster the Eagles' youthful defense and set up future success.

Breaking down the salary cap impact of Trey Smith’s extension
The Kansas City Chiefs signed franchise-tagged guard Trey Smith to a four-year, $94 million contract extension before the deadline, making him the highest-paid guard in NFL history. This replaces the $23.4 million franchise tag salary he would have played under. The contract guarantees Smith $46.75 million over the next two seasons. For the upcoming season, he receives a $10 million base salary and a $17 million signing bonus. His 2026 base salary of $19.75 million is also fully guaranteed. His salary cap charges are set at $14.25 million for 2025 and $24.25 million for 2026. Smith's $23.25 million base salary for 2027 is guaranteed for injury and becomes fully guaranteed early in the 2026 league year. He can also earn $250,000 workout bonuses each offseason for the next three years, potentially securing $70.5 million over that period. For 2028, the final year, no salary is guaranteed; he would earn a $23.25 million base salary and another potential $250,000 workout bonus. Completing the contract would make him a free agent in 2029. His cap charges for 2027 and 2028 are scheduled at $27.75 million each. While the contract structure follows the expected pattern of two fully guaranteed seasons and a third vesting early, the Chiefs frontloaded the cap impact more than anticipated. They used a lower signing bonus and a higher first-year base salary. This significantly reduced his 2025 cap charge from $23.4 million, though it could have been lowered further to under $7 million. The deal's structure raises questions about its impact on the Chiefs' already uncertain 2026 salary cap situation. It also prompts speculation about whether General Manager Brett Veach has further moves planned, such as an extension for cornerback Trent McDuffie. With this contract, the Chiefs are estimated to be approximately $20.6 million under the 2025 salary cap just before training camp begins.

Chiefs rumors: Kansas City’s next priority after Trey Smith signing
Following their Super Bowl loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, the Kansas City Chiefs have prioritized retaining core players over aggressive external acquisitions this offseason. This approach mirrors their strategy after a 2021 blowout loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, which preceded two championships. The team recently secured Pro Bowl right guard Trey Smith with a $94 million contract extension. The Chiefs' next focus is extending All-Pro cornerback Trent McDuffie, a defensive cornerstone. ESPN's Nate Taylor reported that Kansas City will shift attention to McDuffie following Sauce Gardner's new deal with the New York Jets, suggesting McDuffie has arguably been more productive. The organization aims to finalize an agreement before training camp or the regular season begins. McDuffie's value is immense despite unflashy stats, as Kansas City increasingly relies on defense. His 2023 season featured two interceptions, 13 pass breakups, 45 solo tackles, six tackles for loss, and a forced fumble across 16 games. Pro Football Focus awarded him an 83.1 defensive grade and ranks him among the NFL's top five players under 25, highlighting his multifaceted impact—a quality GM Brett Veach recognizes. The Chiefs have a history of making calculated financial decisions, having traded key contributors like Tyreek Hill and Joe Thuney after championship runs. Management trusts its foundational building process but acknowledges McDuffie's rapid emergence as a franchise pillar. This likely necessitates a significant contract extension to secure his long-term future with the team.

The Ligue 1 teams making the best moves in the transfer market so far 💰
With Ligue 1 resuming in a month, several French clubs have made notable transfer moves. AS Monaco aggressively secured high-profile signings including Paul Pogba (free transfer), Ansu Fati (from Barcelona), and Éric Dier (from Bayern Munich), though concerns remain about Pogba and Fati's fitness. Strasbourg focused on youth recruitment after losing key players like Djordje Petrovic and Habib Diarra, signing Mathis Amougou (Chelsea), Soumaïla Coulibaly (Dortmund), and Pape Demba Diop (Zulte Waregem). They also activated Valentin Barco's purchase option from Brighton following his successful loan. Olympique de Marseille prioritized defensive reinforcements, acquiring Facundo Medina (Lens), one of Ligue 1's best defenders, alongside promising English player CJ Egan-Riley (Burnley). They also secured free agent Angel Gomes after his contract with Lille expired. Promoted Paris FC ambitiously targeted experienced players, signing Moses Simon (Nantes) and Reims full-back Nhoa Sangui. Reports indicate they are nearing deals for Benjamin André (Lille) and Otavio (Porto).

Jets handed perfect wide receiver trade target after stunning 49ers news
The New York Jets may reconsider their stance on roster additions after San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings demanded either a trade or a new contract, becoming available on the open market. This development could prompt the Jets to pursue Jennings as a potential solution for their WR2 position. Jennings presents an attractive opportunity as an affordable, high-upside addition who would immediately become New York's second receiver behind Garrett Wilson. His best football years likely lie ahead, and his 2023 performance—nearly 1,000 yards and six touchdowns—demonstrated significant potential despite being an outlier compared to earlier seasons. Known for clutch plays earning him the nickname "3rd and Jauan," Jennings excels as one of the league's best blocking receivers with versatility in alignment and reliable hands for difficult catches. These traits align with coach Aaron Glenn's team philosophy, making him a natural fit for the Jets' offensive scheme. Jennings would likely surpass current receivers Josh Reynolds and Allen Lazard on the depth chart, though his acquisition could jeopardize roster spots for players like Malachi Corley. While his 2023 breakout occurred in a crowded 49ers receiver room that limited opportunities, he projects as a reliable WR2 in New York. Acquiring Jennings carries risk if he reverts to pre-2023 production levels, but his ceiling in the right offensive system makes him an enticing gamble for the Jets given the potential reward of securing a cost-effective starting receiver.

Now it’s important to return with renewed motivation and give my best for Fiorentina."

Patrick Mahomes Had One-Emoji Reaction to Chiefs' Extension for Trey Smith
The Kansas City Chiefs secured offensive guard Trey Smith with a four-year, $94 million contract extension on Tuesday, ensuring he remains with the team through the 2028 season. This deal makes Smith the highest-paid guard in the NFL. His quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, expressed immediate excitement upon hearing the news, celebrating with a single emoji (😁) on social media. Smith, originally a sixth-round draft pick in 2021, has surpassed expectations to become a crucial part of the Chiefs' offensive line. He earned his first Pro Bowl selection in 2024 and has started 67 games over the past four seasons, missing only one game. The extension replaces the franchise tag placed on Smith earlier in the offseason, which would have paid him just over $23 million for one year. The Chiefs and Smith's agents successfully negotiated this new long-term agreement, providing stability for the standout player.

Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes Has No Words After Team's Latest Move
The Kansas City Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes are preparing for the upcoming training camp, aiming to move past their Super Bowl loss as the 2025 NFL season approaches. Considered top contenders again, the team bolstered its roster during the offseason and successfully retained key talent. A major recent move was securing offensive lineman Trey Smith. As reported by NFL insider Ian Rapoport, the Chiefs signed Smith to a four-year, $94 million contract extension, following their earlier decision to franchise tag him. Retaining Smith was a clear priority for Kansas City due to his role as one of Mahomes' primary protectors on the offensive line. Mahomes publicly reacted to the contract news on social media by posting a smiling emoji (😁), clearly indicating his approval. Smith is viewed as crucial for the team's offensive success in the 2025 season. Originally a sixth-round pick (No. 226 overall) by the Chiefs in the 2021 NFL Draft, Smith has developed into an elite lineman under the team's guidance. At 26 years old, he is now a cornerstone player locked in long-term. Meanwhile, Mahomes, the 29-year-old quarterback, is driven to win another championship. He enters the season coming off a 2024 performance where he played 16 games, completing 67.5% of his passes for 3,928 yards, 26 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions.

Everton at Accrington Stanley: Match Preview, Starting Lineups, Stream Info & How to Watch
Everton begins their 2025/26 preseason with a friendly match away at Accrington Stanley. Jarrad Branthwaite will captain the team for this opening fixture, and Everton is fielding a strong lineup despite the friendly nature of the game. This match comes just over 50 days after they concluded the 2024/25 season. The Blues are still addressing significant gaps in their squad following the departure of nearly a dozen players over the summer due to expiring contracts and loan endings. Manager David Moyes has overseen the signings of Carlos Alcaraz, Thierno Barry, and Mark Travers, but the club still requires reinforcements, specifically a right winger and additional cover at fullback and midfield. Several key players, including Jordan Pickford, Idrissa Gueye, and Iliman Ndiaye, have only recently returned from extended summer holidays and are unlikely to feature in tonight's match. Tonight's opponents, Accrington Stanley, narrowly avoided relegation by finishing 21st in EFL League Two last season. The article provides historical context, noting the original Accrington club was a Football League founder in 1888 before folding, with Stanley Villa later adopting the Accrington Stanley name. The match details are as follows: It is the first preseason friendly of 2025/26, scheduled for Tuesday, July 15th at 7:45 p.m. BST (2:45 p.m. ET / 11:45 a.m. PT). The venue is the Wham Stadium in Accrington, England, which has a capacity of 5,450. Weather conditions are forecasted to be 57°F (14°C) with rain showers (47% chance) and 11 mph winds. The match will not be televised in the US, UK, or Canada but will be available on VG+ in Norway.

NWSL and US Soccer’s lack of transgender policy targeted by conservative lobby groups
The National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) has confirmed that its 2021 policy on transgender athlete participation is no longer in effect and has not been since Commissioner Jessica Berman was hired in March 2022. The league currently operates with no policy on transgender players, despite widespread belief that the 2021 rules were still active. The 2021 policy allowed male-to-female transgender athletes to compete if they declared their gender identity as female and maintained testosterone levels "within typical limits of women athletes." It barred female-to-male transgender athletes undergoing testosterone therapy from competing. While no known transgender athletes currently play in the NWSL, past players include Canadian Olympian Quinn and Japan's Kumi Yokoyama, who criticized the policy. The NWSL did not explain why the policy lapsed or if a new one is planned. This development occurs alongside England's and Scotland's Football Associations banning transgender women from women's football following a UK Supreme Court ruling defining "woman" as biological sex. The United States Soccer Federation (USSF) also lacks a policy for national teams, citing no elite transgender players in their pool. For amateur players, USSF policy allows registration based on gender identity with supporting documentation. The absence of clear policies from major US soccer authorities exists within a contentious national climate. The US Supreme Court recently allowed Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming care and will hear cases on transgender sports bans this fall. Advocacy organizations like Human Rights Campaign and Athlete Ally declined to comment, reflecting reduced public support. Lobby groups view this policy vacuum as an opportunity to push for bans, with a legal advisor noting "the tide is changing" in the US regarding transgender participation in sports.

Charlotte forward Kerwin Vargas secured three points against NYCFC with a well-executed volley, recovering from an initial awkward touch to set himself up for the strike. Martín Ojeda delivered a precisely practiced low free-kick that split the player wall and nestled near the near post, enhancing its impressive quality. The Hell is Real derby between the Crew and Cincinnati culminated in a six-goal showdown, with the Crew winning; however, Cincinnati's Evander scored an unforgettable, powerful strike that stood out regardless of the result.

Chargers, 49ers could swing perfect WR trade to help Justin Herbert
The Los Angeles Chargers have not significantly bolstered proven wide receiver talent around quarterback Justin Herbert this offseason. While they re-signed Mike Williams in free agency and drafted rookies Tre Harris and KeAndre Lambert-Smith, Williams has struggled since 2022, and the rookies lack experience, leaving Herbert without dependable weapons. A potential new option has emerged as the regular season approaches: San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings. Jennings is unhappy with his contract and is seeking either a new deal or a trade, creating an opportunity for the Chargers to pursue a trade. Jennings, previously a minor contributor, had a breakout season in 2023, recording 77 receptions for 975 yards and six touchdowns. The article describes the 6-foot-3, 215-pound Jennings as the type of big-bodied target Herbert needs to stretch the field, similar to Williams in his earlier Chargers tenure. While not considered elite, Jennings would serve as a strong complementary receiver alongside rookie Ladd McConkey. The main hurdle is Jennings' contract demands and the Chargers' general manager Joe Hortiz's known approach to significant financial commitments. However, the possibility of a trade remains viable, as Jennings would likely cost less in draft picks and be far less expensive than top-tier receivers like D.K. Metcalf.

Manchester United now in talks to sign Premier League star, unwanted attacker could go the other way
Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana has suffered an injury that could sideline him for six weeks, jeopardizing his availability for the Premier League season opener. This setback forces manager Ruben Amorim to adjust pre-season plans, starting with this weekend's friendly against Leeds United. Onana's absence impacts squad decisions, as backup Altay Bayindir may now stay at the club rather than leave. Third-choice keeper Radek Vitek is also unlikely to be loaned to Millwall due to the shortage, prompting United to consider new signings despite Amorim wanting to evaluate Vitek. The club has targeted Botafogo's John Victor but is actively pursuing Aston Villa's Emiliano Martinez. Argentine journalist Gaston Edul – renowned for reliability – reports negotiations have begun, stating: "Manchester United made a move specifically for Emiliano Martínez. Negotiations are already underway with Aston Villa." The 32-year-old Martínez, a 2022 World Cup winner with Argentina and widely regarded as elite, has four years remaining on his Villa contract. However, Villa's failure to qualify for the Champions League increases the likelihood of a sale. The Daily Mail corroborates United's interest, noting players have heard of the club's intent and that an initial enquiry has been made.

Eintracht Frankfurt Await New Newcastle Offer for €80M-Rated Man Utd Target With PSG Clause
Newcastle United and Liverpool are reportedly interested in signing Hugo Ekitiké from Eintracht Frankfurt this summer. Paris Saint-Germain, his former club, would benefit from any transfer through a 20% sell-on clause. According to reports, Ekitiké is a top attacking target for Liverpool. However, a potential move to Anfield is understood to depend on player departures, particularly the sale of Darwin Núñez. Liverpool are reportedly open to talks with Frankfurt, but a deal for Ekitiké may only proceed if Núñez is sold. Frankfurt is holding firm on an £86 million valuation, and Liverpool's willingness to negotiate has encouraged them. Selling Núñez could facilitate Ekitiké's arrival. Frankfurt is reportedly still waiting for a new offer from Newcastle United after rejecting their previous €80 million bid. Furthermore, another club has verbally indicated it is willing to outbid Newcastle's rejected offer. Reports also state Manchester United remains very interested in Ekitiké. Manchester United are cited as being among the clubs making the most serious push for Ekitiké. They have already made contact with the player and his representatives and are considering a player-plus-cash offer to accelerate a potential deal.

Sources: Chiefs, guard Smith reach historic deal
The Kansas City Chiefs have agreed to a four-year, $94 million contract extension with right guard Trey Smith, making him the highest-paid interior offensive lineman in NFL history. The deal includes $70 million guaranteed, also a record for an NFL guard. Smith was the final player remaining on the franchise tag this year. The Chiefs applied the tag on February 28th to prevent him from becoming a free agent, committing to a one-year, $23.4 million deal while continuing negotiations. Both parties reached the long-term agreement before Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET deadline for franchised players to sign such contracts. With this deal, no players will play the 2024 season under the franchise tag for the first time since 2015. Retaining Smith completes the Chiefs' major offseason objective of revamping their offensive line to better protect quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who publicly celebrated the extension. Smith, a first-time Pro-Bowler last season, will be a core part of the projected starting offensive line. The Chiefs also used their first-round draft pick on left tackle Josh Simmons to address this key need. The deal comes after the NFL set the salary cap higher than anticipated at $279.2 million. To create cap space, the Chiefs recently traded All-Pro left guard Joe Thuney to the Chicago Bears, freeing up $16 million. Smith's contract means the Chiefs are now the only team paying multiple interior offensive linemen at least $50 million guaranteed. Smith, 26, joined the Chiefs as a sixth-round pick in 2021 despite concerns about his medical history involving blood clots. He has proven exceptionally dependable, starting 80 of 81 possible games, including the Chiefs' past four postseason runs, and is known for his athleticism and tenacity.

Chiefs Reportedly Making Things Right with Unhappy Stud Before Camp Opens
The Kansas City Chiefs and right guard Trey Smith have agreed to a record-breaking four-year contract extension, as announced in an update. This follows the original news that the Chiefs were preparing for training camp amid unresolved contract negotiations with Smith. Smith, a Pro Bowl player and key member of the offensive line, had been seeking to become the highest-paid guard in the NFL through a long-term deal. He was the only player in the league on the franchise tag, with a deadline set for Tuesday at 3:00 CT for the Chiefs to reach an agreement or retain him under the tag. Reports indicated progress in talks, including a specific claim from X user SlickRickScoops that a record-breaking four-year extension would be announced before the deadline. Although SlickRickScoops is not an established media source, the user has a history of accurate information, and expectations were high for a deal given Smith's value. The Chiefs, who traded guard Joe Thuney to the Chicago Bears earlier, cannot afford to lose Smith, as he is crucial for protecting quarterback Patrick Mahomes and supporting the team's Super Bowl ambitions. Smith, a former sixth-round draft pick, is only 26 years old and forms a strong interior line with fellow Pro Bowler Creed Humphrey, making him a beloved teammate and community figure. Signing him now provides security and avoids potential distractions during the season.

Premier League Relegation Odds: Latest RelegationOdds Premier League 25/26 Season
The 2025/26 Premier League season commences on August 15, with Liverpool defending their title after securing a record-equalling 20th top-flight championship. The relegation battle is highlighted as a key storyline, where the three teams finishing in the bottom positions (20th to 18th) will be demoted to the Championship. Leicester, Ipswich, and Southampton were relegated in the 2024/25 season, and established Premier League clubs are now less vulnerable due to financial advantages, making promoted teams more likely to drop straight back down—a trend seen in the last two seasons where all three promoted teams were immediately relegated. This page provides up-to-date Premier League relegation odds for the 2025/26 season, sourced from recommended betting sites licensed by the UK Gambling Commission. Odds are regularly updated to reflect events and ensure readers get the best value for wagers. The promoted teams for 2025/26—Leeds United, Burnley, and Sunderland—are the current favorites for relegation. This prediction is based on the widening gap between the Premier League and Championship, which has made it increasingly difficult for newly promoted clubs to survive, as evidenced by recent seasons.
