The heavyweight was reportedly driving 136 mph in a 50 zone.

Georgia is not No. 1 in the first rankings of the College Football Playoff ratings system released Tuesday night.
Never mind that Georgia is undefeated (8-0) and didn’t lose a game last season either (15-0) in winning the national championship and won it in the 2021 season as well. The Bulldogs have also been No. 1 in the Associated Press and USA Today polls all this season.
Ohio State (8-0) instead jumped from No. 3 in the wire service polls to No. 1 based on its strength of schedule. The Buckeyes have higher quality wins than Georgia with victories over No. 9 Notre Dame and over No.

The Rangers have removed both outfielder Adolis García and starting pitcher Max Scherzer from their World Series roster. The two have been replaced by utilityman Ezequiel Durán and reliever Brock Burke.
Both players were injured in the Rangers’ Game 3 win over the Diamondbacks on Monday. Scherzer departed before the fourth inning with back spasms; García left in the eighth with left side tightness. Texas entered Tuesday up two games to one over Arizona. But losing García and Scherzer represents a massive blow to the path ahead.

Denver’s DeAndre Jordan kept in the Halloween spirit on Tuesday by hilariously dressing up as Travis Kelce’s girlfriend Taylor Swift as the Nuggets headed out on the road.
While Nuggets’ star Nikola Jokić refused to dress up for Halloween, Jordan opted to join several other Denver players by wearing costumes.
Ahead of traveling for Wednesday’s road tilt with Minnesota, the 2023 NBA Champion wore a Chiefs jacket, a blonde wig and bright red lipstick as the team boarded their flight.

ESPN Analytics unveiled their brand new metric last week. It attempts to capture the best wide receivers in the NFL using tracking data. According to the metric, Nico Collins is a Top 5 receiver, Ja’Marr Chase is outside the Top 10 and Tyreek Hill doesn’t crack the Top 20.
Uh, what?
Before we dive into the list, here’s how ESPN describes their grading system: “These ratings use player-tracking data from NFL Next Gen Stats to evaluate every route a pass catcher runs and scores his performance in three phases of the game, from 0 to 99.

76ers center Joel Embiid’s viral celebration from this weekend is going to end up costing him a pretty penny.
Embiid was fined $35,000 by the NBA as a result of the celebration he did against the Trail Blazers on Sunday, the league announced Tuesday.
During the celebration in question, Embiid could be seen doing a “crotch chop” after hitting a layup in traffic and drawing an and-one. The move resembled the “Suck It” celebration made famous by WWE’s D-Generation X, but it doesn’t seem the NBA was too fond of it.

Star athletes ranging across all sports showed off their Halloween costumes on Tuesday, though not every superstar was keen to take part in the festivities.
Nuggets star Nikola Jokic was among those less interested in Halloween, opting against dressing up in a costume this year. While his teammates went all out with their outfits, Jokic showed up in a sweatshirt and sweatpants for the team’s flight to Minnesota ahead of Wednesday’s game vs. the Timberwolves.

“I liked Travis Kelce more when he was just a tight end.”
Not only do OutKick’s Donovan McNabb and Armando Salguero feel this way — most of America is tired of KelceMania. Notably little brother Travis Kelce, whose stardom went from premier NFL talent to international household fame.

Ryan Poles made a splashy trade deadline deal for the second straight year, and at least one outlet has questions, comments and concerns about what it means for the direction of the team. On Tuesday, the Chicago Bears acquired defensive end Montez Sweat from the Washington Commanders in exchange for a second-round pick.
