Doug Pederson will get on the Jacksonville Jaguars charter flight back home from Sunday’s game at the Detroit Lions, but there is no guarantee he’ll ever coach the team again.
That’s because the Jaguars, 2-9 following Sunday’s blowout loss to the Lions, will spend some time during their bye week determining whether to fire Pederson. And, per one source in Jacksonville, the favor Pederson enjoyed with owner Shad Khan as late as a couple of weeks ago has nearly disappeared.
A serious evaluation is looming.

These TV networks should have learned by now: You don’t edit stuff out of sports broadcasts because you send a message that beclowns you. But CBS apparently hasn’t learned.
On Sunday, in the Las Vegas Raiders game at the Miami Dolphins, tight end Brock Bowers scored on a 23 yard touchdown catch.
And he finished it off with a Trump Dance.

Rick Pitino still has bragging rights over his son, Richard Pitino. Rick’s St. John’s hoops team defeated Richard’s New Mexico Lobos, 85-71, on Sunday afternoon at Madison Square Garden.

As OutKick reported earlier Sunday, the Mountain West Conference says it “did not find sufficient evidence of claims in a recent Title IX complaint” that claimed transgender San Jose State (SJSU) volleyball player Blaire Fleming colluded with a Colorado State player to throw a match last month. 
In addition to that allegation being included in a Title IX complaint, it’s also contained in a lawsuit filed last week that is headed by the lead attorney for the pro-woman organization Independent Council On Women’s Sport (ICONS), which is funding and backing the lawsuit.

There are three things in life that are certain: death, taxes, and Justin Tucker converting field goals. At least, that’s how it used to be.
The first two aren’t changing, because we haven’t found the Fountain of Youth, and taxes aren’t going away anytime soon (big sad). Now, it seems that the Baltimore Ravens kicker is not a guaranteed lock to drill field goals from insane distances – or regular ones, for that matter.
Remember, this guy is not only the most accurate kicker ever (he has converted 89.
