Full trade terms, per ESPN sources:

🏈Rams receive: Myles Garrett

🏈Browns receive: Jared Verse, a 2027 first-round pick, a 2028 2nd and a 2029 3rd.

[Daniel Oyefusi @DanielOyefusi]

Expected new Browns DE Jared Verse, who was the 2024 AP Defensive Rookie of the Year, has 99 pressures since entering the league in 2024. Only Micah Parsons (119) and Myles Garrett (109) have more over that span, per ESPN Research.

Verse turns 26 in November and is eligible for a contract extension after the 2026 season.

[Scott Petrak ct @ScottPetrak]

I didn't think the Browns would or should trade Myles Garrett. If they were going to, needed to get a young edge rusher in return.
The Rams' Jared Verse fits that bill. First-rounder in 2024 had 7.5 sacks and 27 QB hits last season.

The streak is over 😱

2026 French Open will be the first major since 2022 to have a winner on the men's side not named Alcaraz, Djokovic or Sinner.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Just in: Cleveland Cavaliers general manager Mike Gansey has agreed to become the new President of Basketball Operations for the Philadelphia 76ers, sources tell ESPN. Gansey -- who rose the ranks within the Cavaliers front office since joining in 2011-12 -- now lands the top executive position in Philadelphia.

[Roland-Garros @rolandgarros]

Novak Djokovic is OUT of the French Open 😱

This year's tournament would be the first men's Major in the Open Era that didn't feature at least one former Major champion in the Round of 16.

Stuart Fairchild made his MLB debut with the Diamondbacks on July 6, 2021, when in the ninth inning of a tie game, he pinch-ran for none other than... Stephen Vogt, his new manager.

Fairchild scored the winning run on a walk-off hit-by-pitch.
