    May 10, 2025; Jacksonville, FL, USA; Jacksonville Jaguars offensive lineman Wyatt Milum (64) participates in a drill during rookie minicamp at Miller Electric Center. Mandatory Credit: Travis Register-Imagn Images | Travis Register-Imagn ImagesThe Jacksonville Jaguars are heading into the 2026 NFL Draft without a first-round pick after the Travis Hunter trade last year, but that doesnt mean theyre devoid of capital.Jacksonville holds 11 draft picks heading into the weekend, including three third-rounders, thanks to a smart draft day trade they made last offseason.With the Detroit Lions targeting wide receiver Isaac Teslaa in the third round, the Jaguars moved back 30 spots and acquired a pair of future draft picks in return.With the 2026 NFL Draft upon us, lets revisit the 2025 trade and see how things fare after one year.Original terms for the 2025 NFL Draft trade between the Jaguars and LionsDetroit Lions receive: 2025 third-round pick (No. 72 overall), 2025 sixth-round pick (No. 182 overall), 2026 sixth-round pick (No. 205 overall)Jacksonville Jaguars receive: 2025 third-round pick (No. 102 overall), 2026 third-round pick (No. 81 overall), 2026 third-round pick (No. 100 overall)Who did the Jaguars take with their picks from the Isaac TeSlaa trade?Jacksonville traded up after acquiring the No. 102 pick. They moved up 13 spots to take guard Wyatt Milum, sending a fifth-round pick to the Minnesota Vikings, while receiving a seventh-round pick as well in the deal.In the 2026 NFL Draft, they have the 81st and 100th overall picks. We will update when they are used.How did Wyatt Milum perform for the Jaguars in 2025?Milum was called upon in primarily a reserve role as a rookie after dealing with injuries to start the year. He played in 10 games, seeing only 96 offensive snaps, which sometimes came in jumbo packages with an extra offensive lineman.Hes slated to be a reserve again in 2026.Who did the Detroit Lions take with the picks from the Isaac TeSlaa trade?The Lions traded up for Isaac TeSlaa, taking him with the No. 72 pick. They then used the No. 182 pick in a later trade, moving up 11 spots with the New England Patriots to take guard Miles Frazier. Detroit sent back an extra seventh-round pick in that second trade.They have the 213th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, too. We will update when the pick is used. How did Isaac TeSlaa perform in his rookie season?TeSlaa ended up being Detroits No. 4 receiver as a rookie behind Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, and Kalif Raymond. He had a couple of highlight-reel catches, finishing the year with 16 catches for 239 yards and six touchdowns.The red zone and deep threat capabilities were both keys to why Detroit took him at No. 72, and they were both seen in flashes during TeSlaas rookie year. Hes now slated to be the No. 3 receiver in 2026.How did the Jaguars fare in their 2025 NFL Draft trade?While we havent seen much of an impact from Milum yet, from a value perspective, the Jaguars knocked this one out of the park.They received two additional third-round picks in return, which will be crucial for them this weekend, as they have plenty of ammunition to move up in the draft.For a draft day deal, without grading the actual draft picks yet, this one seems pretty good from Jacksonvilles perspective, setting them up well in the 2026 NFL Draft.

    Messi Replacement? Inter Miami Owner Wants To Just Enjoy 'Next Two Years'
    Inter Miami owner Jorge Mas has addressed the inevitable question of how the club will replace Lionel Messi. With the Argentine icon under contract through 2028, the Herons are already planning for a future beyond the GOAT. Mas outlines vision for post-Messi era in Miami Messi has transformed Inter Miami into a global phenomenon since his arrival, but the clubs hierarchy is already preparing for the day the legendary No. 10 eventually retires. Speaking at The Forum event at the Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid, owner Mas addressed the constant speculation regarding the team's long-term roster construction and the hunt for a future successor. The American businessman highlighted that while the immediate goal is to capitalise on Messi's presence over the next two seasons, the club's identity is now tied to consistent excellence. Mas noted that the demand from the Floridian fanbase is for a blend of world-class stars and emerging young talent to ensure the "Messi effect" leaves a permanent legacy. Excellence remains non-negotiable for MLS Cup winners During his address, Mas acknowledged the pressure from supporters who are already looking toward the next marquee signing. He insisted that the standard of competition at Nu Stadium will not drop once the eight-time Ballon d'Or winner hangs up his boots, with the club committed to staying at the top of the league. "I want to enjoy Messi while we have him, for the next two years," Mas explained, as quoted by Mundo Deportivo. "Our fans keep asking us who will be next. We always try to sign star players, but also young talent, to give our supporters a sense of belonging. What matters to our fans is competing, winning." Miami targets untapped potential in American market The Inter Miami project has always extended beyond the pitch, with Mas viewing the club as a central pillar of an "unexploited" American football market. The recent opening of the clubs new permanent stadium and entertainment complex is seen as a vital step in moving MLS closer to the popularity of the major domestic leagues in the United States. "The next step is to continue striving to build a great team in a market as large as the United States, but whose league is the fifth most followed domestically," he added. "It's a huge market that hasn't been fully exploited." "We opened the new Miami stadium three weeks ago, not just as a stadium, but as a place for entertainment, shopping, and experiences. One of my most satisfying moments was when we won the championship in December and I saw families around me celebrating our achievement. You walk around Miami and all you see are pink jerseys. It's important to change the cultural impact we can have on soccer." Major industry changes Inter Miami remains the favorite to win the MLS title this season. With Messi's contract running until 2028, the primary focus now is maintaining their dominance in the league while integrating star players into the squad. Off the pitch, the club will continue to develop its new entertainment district to maximize the brand's commercial reach. As long as Messi continues to lead the line, Inter Miami will remain the most watched team in North America, but the foundation laid by Messi and his partners suggests that the "Pink Revolution" is just beginning.

    2026 UFL Week 5 Results: Defenders Crush New-Look Stallions, More
    Week 5 of the 2026 UFL season started off with a bang, as the DC Defenders (4-1) went on the road and crushed the Birmingham Stallions (1-4) by double digits at Protective Stadium in Alabama on FOX UFL Friday. It was the first game for both teams after the league announced a pair of massive trades involving four organizations last weekend. Next, the St. Louis Battlehawks (2-2) are on the road to face the undefeated Orlando Storm (4-0) on Saturday afternoon. Closing things out on Sunday, we've got a doubleheader. First, the Houston Gamblers (1-3) are playing host to the Columbus Aviators (1-3), followed by the Louisville Kings (1-3) traveling to face the Dallas Renegades (3-1). Here are the results from Week 5: DC Defenders 45, Birmingham Stallions 28 Key players: Defenders QB Jordan Taamu (15-for-22 for 275 yards, four touchdowns), WR Ty Scott (3-for-4 for 84 yards, two touchdowns), WR Erik Ezukanma (2-for-2 for 77 yards), RB Xazavian Valladay (eight carries for 50 yards, two touchdowns); Stallions QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson (28-for-43 for 313 yards, two touchdowns), WR Justyn Ross (9-for-11 for 107 yards), WR Deon Cain (5-for-10 for 57 yards, one touchdown). Game recap: The Defenders hit pay dirt on the opening drive of the game, taking just six plays to find the end zone after a monster 60-plus-yard kickoff return set DC up for success early. The Stallions, on the other hand, didn't get off to a smooth start. Newly minted Birmingham quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson was picked off in the red zone on the team's first drive, but he bounced back on the Stallions' second possession to get them on the board, 7-6. DC extended its lead with a rushing score midway through the second quarter, and a costly fumble by Birmingham gave the ball right back to the Defenders. Quarterback Jordan Ta'amu capitalized on the newfound possession, throwing up a dazzling 45-yard touchdown to make it a 15-point game, 21-6. Thompson-Robinson was able to use his legs to get the Stallions into the end zone before halftime, closing the gap slightly to 21-13. Things were looking up for the Stallions early in the second half. They came out on the break swinging, cashing in for a touchdown to open the third quarter and pull within two points, 21-19. That momentum was short-lived though. Turnovers were Birmingham's kryptonite. After the Defenders scored again to make it 28-19 midway through the frame, the Stallions threw a pick and had a turnover on downs. DC, on the other hand, rattled off a field goal and a touchdown to close out the third quarter. Birmingham opened the fourth quarter with another turnover on downs, and DC made the most of the opportunity firing back with another touchdown to take a 20-plus-point lead, 45-19. The Stallions were able to score one more time before the end of the frame, but it was too little too late for the home team. Though the Defenders got the win, kicker Matt McCrane had an uncharacteristically poor showing, going 1-for-3 and missing from 36 yards and 62 yards. Up next: In Week 6, the Defenders are playing host to the Renegades on Saturday afternoon, and the Stallions are on the road to battle the Storm on Sunday night on FOX.

Game recap: Stay tuned for updates. Up next: In Week 6, these two teams are back at it again, this time with the Aviators hosting Friday night on FOX. Louisville Kings at Dallas Renegades (Sunday at 3 p.m. ET) Key players: Kings QB Chandler Rogers, WR Isaiah Winstead, TE Zach Davidson; Renegades QB Austin Reed, WR Tyler Vaughns, WR Greg Ward, RB Dae Dae Hunter.
