The Spain star was making her way onto the podium after receiving her Women’s World Cup winners’ medal after victory against England

Last season, Justin Jefferson established himself as one of the best receivers in the NFL, leading the league with 128 catches and 1,809 receiving yards for the Vikings. So there aren’t many better sources to judge the game’s best receivers.
While speaking recently with Matt Harmon of Yahoo Sports, Jefferson named his top five route runners in the NFL today, and to no surprise, he ranked himself at No. 1. However, instead of a No. 2, he gave a 1B option with Raiders receiver Davante Adams right there with him at the top.

At least two burglars broke into Los Angeles Dodgers star Max Muncy’s Los Angeles home last week, according to TMZ Sports. And this incident comes just a month after burglars got into his teammate Freddie Freeman’s mansion in Studio City. Both crimes occurred while the players were at work.
Muncy was on his way home from a game at Dodger Stadium when his alarm company contacted him to say thieves had broken into his house. Authorities said security video showed the criminals ransacking the home.

Nick Castellanos can’t stop hitting homers at bad times.
Philadelphia Phillies right fielder Nick Castellanos has to be in on the meme, because otherwise there’s no way that he continues to do this without fail.
On Aug. 19, 2020, then-Cincinnati Reds announcer Thom Brennaman was mid-apology for a slur he said while the game was airing. While he was apologizing, Castellanos, then a Cincinnati Red, blasted a home run, and created one of the greatest memes of all time.

Like, just impeccable timing.

A heap of Spanish players collapsed onto the Stadium Australia pitch in tears—after a 103-minute, 1–0 triumph over England, La Roja were crowned Women’s World Cup champions for the first time. As the gravity of the moment continued to sink in, the band of emotional Spain players celebrated on the field, while manager Jorge Vilda gleefully embraced his staff near the touchline. Eventually, however, the two masses merged, sharing in their revelry.
All eyes were on the trophy presentation, with the frosty relationship between La Roja and their coach now well-documented.

LSU forward Angel Reese has ascended to stardom since winning the national championship, and she is using that star status to support the next generation.
On Saturday, Reese donated $12,000 to her former high school, St. Frances Academy in Baltimore, to cover tuition expenses for a member of the school’s girls basketball team.

It appears NFL fans won’t have to wait until the regular season to see Aaron Rodgers make his debut for his new team. Rodgers will play his first game for the Jets in his team’s preseason finale against the Giants on Saturday, according to the New York Post’s Brian Costello.
