There may be some finality to the Minnesota Vikings‘ backup quarterback situation. On Saturday, Minnesota sent pick 142 to the Seattle Seahawks for pick 172 and Sam Howell, who will likely be the Vikings’ backup to J.J. McCarthy.
Howell is entering his fourth year, but he started 18 games in two seasons with the Washington Commanders. He threw for 4,115 yards and 22 touchdowns in those games, but also tossed 22 interceptions. Still, he’s only 25 and can learn behind McCarthy while providing a capable skillset to come in as needed.

How to watch Arsenal vs Paris St Germain, team news, pre-match quotes, predicted line-ups and more
Arsenal host Paris Saint Germain in the first-leg of their Champions League semi-final where the Gunners are looking to get a lead to take to the French capital.
Tonight’s fixture will be Arsenal’s first Champions League semi-final since the 2008/09 season when they lost 4-1 on aggregate to Manchester United.
The north London side have already beat PSG 2-0 in the league stage of this season’s competition, at the end of last year, they will be hoping for a similar result in this tie.
New Carolina Panthers wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan is apparently a very popular man, both inside and outside of the league.
The very first batch of returns on jersey sales from the 2025 NFL draft class are in, and McMillan currently has the fifth-best-selling jersey of the bunch. His threads sit behind only that of Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter (No. 1), Tennessee Titans quarterback Cam Ward (No. 2), Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders (No. 3) and Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty (No. 4).

Jalen Hurts and several Philadelphia Eagles team-mates players skipped a reception with US President Donald Trump at the White House to celebrate their Super Bowl victory.
Star quarterback Hurts, 26, and other players had “scheduling conflicts”, a White House official said.
The invitation was optional for players to attend, and less than half the team showed up on Monday.
Nottingham Forest host Brentford on Thursday hoping to climb back to third in the Premier League table with a win.
WATCH —Nottingham Forest v Brentford
Nuno Espirito Santo’s side have kept up with Manchester City, Newcastle, Chelsea and Co. in the hunt for the final three Champions League spots. They won 2-1 at Tottenham Hotspur last time out in the Premier League but did lose 2-0 in the FA Cup semifinal to Manchester City at Wembley on Sunday.
Mailbagg™ is a living, breathing organism, and I never know where it’s going.
A few weeks ago my flooded basement became the anchor for a 1,500-word discussion with readers. Last week shifted toward our polarized society, and my ability to bring the world together by wondering – ahem – if the Indianapolis Colts would draft Shedeur Sanders with the 14th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
If Shedeur Sanders ever decides to play in the Canadian Football League, the Toronto Argonauts have the first rights to negotiate a contract with him.
The Argonauts added Sanders to their negotiation list on Monday, according to TSN. That makes the Argonauts the team with the right to sign Sanders first if he becomes interested in playing in the CFL.
Such a signing wouldn’t happen this year, as the CFL season starts in June and Sanders’ focus over the coming months will be making the Browns’ roster.
The Tampa Bay Lightning fell 4-2 to the Florida Panthers in Game 4 on Monday night, but much of the postgame attention focused on a second-period hit.
Aaron Ekblad leveled Brandon Hagel with a high hit near the boards midway through the second period, catching the Lightning forward in the head with a forearm.
Hagel went down immediately, left the rink, and did not return while no penalty was called on the play.
Lightning captain Victor Hedman questioned the legality of the hit and its impact on the game, removing Hagel from it.
CM: One fate, two scenarios – what the Coppa Italia final means for Conceicao’s future
Sergio Conceicao is fully focused on winning his second trophy with AC Milan, and that could very well be the last thing he does for the club.
As Calciomercato.com write, the saying ‘winning helps you win’ is the number one principle for developing an elite mentality, one that Milan has lacked this season in key moments. Two games above all stand out: the Champions League defeat in Zagreb and away league game against Juventus.
The president of Formula 1’s governing body FIA has signaled he’ll make “improvements” to punishments for swearing and criticism which have sparked a backlash from F1 drivers.
FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem posted on Instagram Monday that after “constructive feedback” from drivers across the various event the FIA governs, “I am considering making improvements to Appendix B.
