Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams spoke to reporters for the first time since the NFL suspended him in April for the first six regular-season games of the 2023 season for betting on non-NFL games while at a league facility.

The No Cap Room is back and this time, they’re explaining why a lot of other people are wrong. The perception of LeBron James is wrong, the rumors around Joe Mazzulla are wrong, and the talk about legacies in the NBA is obviously wrong.
McKenzie Milton is headed to Knoxville where he’ll join the University of Tennessee Volunteers staff as an offensive analyst.
It makes a lot of sense. The move will reunite Milton with Vols head coach Josh Heupelm who he played under at the University of Central Florida.
“I’m just excited to get back into football. I missed it a bunch,” Milton told ESPN. “Tennessee is a special, special place, and I got to see that in March when I came up here to check out spring practice and Pro Day.

The reason for the Patriots losing two days of voluntary organized team activities by the NFL has come to light, and it involves ex-Giants head coach Joe Judge.
After receiving the penalty from the league on Wednesday, additional details revealed that New England violated various offseason rules. Primarily, the infractions were centered around some internal scheduling errors and a few special teams meetings led by Judge, according to the Boston Herald’s Andrew Callahan.
