Wisconsin DT Keeanu Benton is a run-stuffer, but can he develop pass-rushing ability in the pros?
The 2023 NFL Draft’s group of interior defensive line prospects can best be described as “boom-or-bust”.
Georgia’s Jalen Carter is the consensus top prospect at defensive tackle from a film perspective, but off-the-field questions linger with him heading into the draft. Clemson’s Bryan Bresee has elite tools but dealt with injury problems in college and didn’t live up to the massive expectations placed upon him coming out of high school.

Braves catcher Travis d’Arnaud was removed from Saturday’s game against the Padres following a scary collision with Rougned Odor at home plate.
d’Arnaud, who thought he had the ball in his glove, attempted to place a tag on Odor at the plate during Saturday’s game. A big collision ensued, resulting in the veteran backstop exiting the contest.
Speaking to reporters after the game, manager Brian Snitker indicated the 34-year-old is most likely headed to the 7-day concussion IL following the collision with Odor.

Quinnipiac won their first NCAA men’s hockey championship in thrilling fashion with a 3–2 come-from-behind overtime win over Minnesota at Amalie Arena on Saturday night.
In a showdown of the NCAA’s top offense (Minnesota) and top defense (Quinnipiac), the title tilt lived up to its billing. 
Jacob Quillan scored 10 seconds into overtime to give the Bobcats the victory. After entering the zone, Sam Lipkin worked his way down the near boards and delivered a brilliant tape-to-tape pass across the ice to a driving Quillan, who buried the puck past Minnesota goalie Justen Close.

The Bruins are on the precipice of setting NHL history following their 2–1 win over the Devils on Saturday. The victory against New Jersey was Boston’s 62nd of the season, which ties the all-time NHL mark for a regular season. 
The Bruins’ 62nd win draws them even with the 1995-96 Red Wings and 2018-19 Lightning. Boston has three games left on the regular season slate in order to push themselves above Detroit and Tampa Bay and stand alone in league history.
