Can running back DJ Giddens give the Indianapolis Colts an added pass-catching presence out of the backfield?
This is an element that the Colts didn’t really have last season. Backup running backs Trey Sermon and Tyler Goodson saw very few opportunities, in general, throughout the year. Jonathan Taylor, meanwhile, totaled just 136 receiving yards, which ranked 50th out of 58 eligible backs, and he was 37th in targets.

North Carolina has certainly been in the news regarding head coach Bill Belichick, but not for the reasons one would think for a football program looking to make headlines for its play on the field. No, the ongoing conversation has centered around Belichick’s girlfriend, Jordon Hudson.

Enzo Maresca has admitted to fears over the artificial pitch at the 3Arena potentially causing injuries when Chelsea face Djurgården in the first leg of their Conference League semi-final.

The Atlanta Falcons added an offensive gem to their roster through the 2022 NFL draft, selecting USC wide receiver Drake London with their No. 8 overall pick in the first round.

New York Jets quarterback Jordan Travis has informed the team he will retire from playing football, surprisingly ending his long comeback from a serious leg injury in college.
Travis said in a statement released by the Jets on Wednesday that he “gave everything I had to the rehab process,” but was medically advised to stop playing.
The 24-year-old Travis was a fifth-round draft pick last year out of Florida State, but spent last season on the Jets’ non-football injury list. The team will now place him on the reserve/retired list.
In November 2023, Jordan Travis was ranked among the top college quarterbacks in the country.
In a span of 24 starts bridging two seasons for the Florida State Seminoles, Travis accrued a 21-3 record on the strength of 5,948 passing yards and 44 touchdowns to just seven interceptions. Travis was a threat carrying the ball too, rushing for 577 yards and 14 touchdowns between the 2022 and 2023 seasons.
But Travis’ career and life changed on November 18, 2023, when he suffered a fractured and dislocated ankle during a game against North Alabama.
