Matt Harmon examines the latest news from around the league to uncover key information that fantasy drafters can use to their advantage.
Buffalo was last offseason’s darling, and the Bills mostly lived up to the hype. While their playoff exit overshadowed an excellent season, Josh Allen & Co. are still a major threat.
It’s been a rough August for Cade York.
The Cleveland Browns kicker has now missed field goals in each of the team’s three preseason games. But York’s performance Thursday against the Philadelphia Eagles has some Browns fans especially concerned.
The 22-year-old missed both of his attempts at the game-winning kick with two minutes on the clock. With a chance to take the lead, York missed wide right from 47 yards.
But an Eagles penalty on that play gave him a second chance — this time, from 5 yards closer. Unfortunately for York, though, that kicked sailed wide left.
The 2008 Formula 1 World Championship wrapped up 15 years ago, but Felipe Massa hasn’t gotten over losing it to Lewis Hamilton by one point.
Massa and his legal team announced that they have begun legal action against Formula 1 and the FIA. They claim that there was a conspiracy against Massa in 2008. The Brazilian driver is now seeking millions in compensatory damages.
An eight-page letter was sent to Formula 1 CEO Stefano Domenicali and FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem earlier this week. This outlined their grievances and is a requirement before court proceedings begin.
The Ravens are making a late addition to their defense as they plan to sign defensive lineman Jadeveon Clowney, ESPN’s Adam Schefter first reported. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the contract will be a one-year deal.
Clowney, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, played the first five years of his career with the Texans, making three Pro Bowl and totaling 29 sacks. Since 2019 he has bounced around the league, spending a year with the Seahawks, a year with the Titans and the last two seasons with the Browns.

Here are the must-see matchups of Victor Wembanyama’s rookie season.
Even the most tepid praise for Victor Wembanyama labeled the 7’5 French giant as the NBA’s best prospect since LeBron James. There is truly no historical comparison for a player with his tools: Wembanyama’s 8-foot wingspan, quick feet on the perimeter, shooting range out past the three-point line, and non-stop motor makes him a unicorn even among other unicorns. The league has never seen a player like this, and now we have a road map to his rookie season.
Fantasy football draft season is upon us, and we all know practice makes perfect, right? So, a few of us at Sports Illustrated got together for a 10-team, 15-round mock to follow up our previous two-quarterback league mock. We utilized a basic scoring system with a full point for all receptions (PPR). The starting lineup requires each team to draft at least one quarterback, two running backs, two wide receivers, one tight end, two flexes (RB/WR/TE), one kicker and one defensive unit.
It’s crisis time for the Yankees. They are a losing team this late in a season for the first time in almost three decades. To get to 89 wins, the projected number for the third AL wild card, New York would have to finish 29–12.
As difficult as that sounds, consider its current downward trajectory. The Yankees have won one of their last 13 series over the past two months, entering a weekend series against the Red Sox. Take it back further: In their past 208 games, including the postseason, the Yankees are 101–107. They have hit .232 in that span.
Dalvin Cook became the latest big name to sign with the Jets, joining Aaron Rodgers and the rest of a team in a defined Super Bowl window. The veteran running back spent the first six years of his career in the same division as Rodgers, giving him a close-up look at the future Hall of Famer.
On Thursday, after Cook’s first practice with New York, he explained that Rodgers didn’t need to convince him to sign since the running back has seen the quarterback play so much.
“He doesn’t have to recruit; his game recruits itself,” Cook said, via ESPN’s Rich Cimini. “Aaron is Aaron.
