Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen took NFL Draft prospect Will Levis out to the golf course for a quick nine holes prior to the draft, according to NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah.
One of my closest friends, Rob, got married last weekend. Rob, along with best man James, are part of my usual weekend foursome on the golf course. During his best man speech, James delivered words of wisdom: “You learn a lot about someone by playing golf with them.”
Perhaps Steichen feels the same way.

1. Braves star Ronald Acuña Jr. did something against the Mets on Monday that doesn’t happen often: He launched a home run into the third deck of Citi Field. The homer quickly got tagged at 448 feet, but there is zero chance that’s accurate.
The majestic blast was hit to left center field with one lonely Mets fan standing in perfect position to get a souvenir. But since it came from an opposing player, the fan was torn. First, though, he was in a state of shock that a ball would be hit up there.
Look where this Ronald Acuña Jr. HR landed 🤯🤯🤯

You might remember XFL quarterback Ben DiNucci from his first NFL start on ‘Sunday Night Football’ against the Philadelphia Eagles. Andy Dalton was in concussion protocol and the Cowboys failed to score an offensive touchdown in a 23-9 loss.
DiNucci barely completed 50% of his 40 passes for just 180 yards. He was sacked four times and lost two fumbles.
The poor performance wasn’t entirely DiNucci’s fault, but it did not go well. At all.
The @Eagles strip sack turns into a scoop and score.
Philadelphia leads 21-9.

With the NFL Draft in the rearview mirror, it’s time to lock in some early futures value for the Defensive Rookie of the Year award.
Last year’s winner, Ahmad “Sauce” Gardner, opened at +1000 to win Defensive Rookie of the Year. We recommended that pick and hope you enjoyed the 10-to-1 payout. There is another cornerback at +1000 odds to open the season and a cornerback has taken home the award three times in the last 10 years, but oddsmakers have four edge defenders among the favorites.
Let’s take a closer look.
