CorSport: Abraham’s importance rising with permanent move being considered
Tammy Abraham’s future has seemed unclear for some time now, but it seems that some clarification may be found by AC Milan, powered by performances.
When Milan made the decision to bring Abraham to the club in the summer mercato, it felt a little like a panic move, even if the groundwork had been in place for quite some time. Nevertheless, the Englishman arrived and made an impact straight away.
The Buccaneers signed pass rusher Haason Reddick last month expecting him to get back to Pro Bowl form, according to coach Todd Bowles.
Reddick had a strange season in 2024, getting traded from the Eagles to the Jets and then asking for the Jets to trade him before ever playing for them. He did eventually play for the Jets, but he finished the season with only one sack. Bowles, however, said he has been watching Reddick for years, and Bucs assistant Larry Foote knows Reddick well, and the Bucs are confident in what they have.
“I knew him as a player,” Bowles said.

Speaking on the Daily Red Podcast, Dave Hendrick didn’t hold back in his assessment of both the performance and the officiating, labelling it “one of the worst refereeing performances I’ve ever seen”.
