He was a No. 3 pick in the NFL. His career went sideways, after positive tests for a muscle relaxant, ecstasy and Adderall. Now he's clean and making 40k a year coaching ... a DIII team in Illinois? This, from @danpompei, is just good writing. Free link https://t.co/bkzV7bJ6C6

Our final @TheAthletic beat writer mock draft is now live!

And spoiler alert, one of our many fantastic editors, @TheMikeSansone, coined me “Trader Joe” 😂

@dmillerabc7 @jon_greenberg @kfishbain It's massive. You can use it as a door stop after this weekend.

Holy moly

[Kansas City Royals @Royals]

What a catch, Izzy! 👏

@AdamHoge I can't tell the difference. 🤷‍♂️

@scottmerkin He's Italian. What else would you expect, Scott? 🇮🇹😂

News: I’m joining @TheAthletic as a staff writer covering the Raiders.

Working for The Athletic was a career goal, and earning this opportunity is surreal. Thank you to all who helped make this dream a reality.

My first day is Monday. Raider Nation, I can’t wait to get to work!

13 forever belongs to Ozzie Guillén.

[Mike Sansone @TheMikeSansone]

@whitesox Congrats @OzzieGuillen !

[Josh Kendall @JoshTheAthletic]

The Falcons have a new look, and I have some thoughts.

@RomeovilleKid @ErtelLuke NOOOOOOOOO

The Bears add depth to their defensive front, agreeing to a two-year deal with veteran Neville Gallimore, who has primarily been a rotational run-stuffing piece through previous stops with the Cowboys, Rams and Colts. He is 29.

Back of the napkin math here...

The Bears trade Moore -- I have him valued at $17M -- and shed a $28M contract.

And then you factor in the value of the second-round pick swap for a fifth...

The Bears went +$11M on Moore and +$8.3M on the pick swap.

That's a robbery, folks.

[Dan Wiederer @danwiederer]

Big development at Halas Hall. Details still coming together.

[James Boyd @RomeovilleKid]

My first 2026 #Colts mock draft drops in the morning. It is 100% correct, and anyone who disagrees is a hater.

Do any of the betting sites have odds on Kevin Warren putting out a statement about the Bears stadium before kickoff tonight?

Uhhhhh
