Cowboys rookie sends loud roster message in preseason win over Seahawks originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.Camden Brown could not have drawn up a better beginning to his push for a place on the Dallas Cowboys 53-man roster. The undrafted rookie wide receiver caught touchdown passes from Sam Howell and Joe Milton III in Dallas 17-7 preseason victory over the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday. Brown finished with three receptions for 75 yards, turning limited opportunities into the most memorable performance of the Cowboys preseason opener.Browns first touchdown came on a 39-yard pass from Howell late in the second quarter. He struck again in the third, making a spectacular one-handed catch on a 20-yard fade from Milton.Neither play surprised Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer.Brian Schottenheimer delivers telling Camden Brown verdictThe game is not too big for him, Schottenheimer said during his postgame press conference. He does that every day in practice. We see it all the time.Schottenheimer praised both touchdown throws, but his most important comments were not about Browns receiving ability. He pointed to the work Brown has done away from the ball and on special teams, two areas that could determine whether he survives the Cowboys final roster cut.He realizes that thats how you make this football team when youve got a receiver room that is filled with George Pickens, CeeDee Lamb, people like that, Schottenheimer said. Thats what matters.Brown signed with Dallas after going undrafted out of Georgia Southern. He spent the first three seasons of his college career at Auburn before transferring and producing 20 catches for 350 yards and three touchdowns in his final year.His path to the roster remains difficult. Lamb and Pickens sit comfortably atop the depth chart, while the Cowboys have several other receivers competing for the remaining jobs. Brown entered camp needing to distinguish himself wherever Dallas gave him an opportunity.Saturday represented his strongest argument yet.MORE:Ben Johnson raves about Bears defender after breakout performanceBrowns consistency has earned first-team opportunitiesSchottenheimer revealed that Dallas already had begun giving Brown occasional first-team repetitions before the preseason opener. His two-touchdown performance should make it more difficult for the coaching staff to reduce those opportunities.Weve wanted to get him in there a little bit with the first team, Schottenheimer said. When we put him in there, hes done a really good job.The coach repeatedly returned to Browns consistency. One big preseason performance will not secure a roster spot, but Brown has apparently built credibility throughout training camp rather than emerging for only one night.Hes just consistent, and thats what we want as coaches, Schottenheimer said. We want people that are consistent and the same every day.Brown still has more work ahead. Dallas will hold a joint practice with the New Orleans Saints before facing the Arizona Cardinals in its second preseason game on Aug. 22.After Saturday, however, Brown is no longer an anonymous long shot. He has become one of the most interesting players in the Cowboys roster competition.MORE NFL NEWSLatest NFL news and rumors2026 NFL schedule, scoresUpdated NFL standingsHow to bet on the NFL

Defensive injuries open door for Real Madrid summer signing to start La Liga openerIbrahima Konate has barely arrived at Real Madrid, but circumstances could already hand him one of the biggest opportunities available to a new signing: a place in the starting XI for the opening La Liga match against Espanyol.According to AS, injuries to Eder Militao and Raul Asencio have left Jose Mourinho with limited options at the heart of the defence.Konates arrival, therefore, comes at a particularly useful moment for the club.The Frenchman completed his first training session with his new teammates on Monday and arrived in excellent physical condition.That immediately puts him in contention for the trip to Espanyol, especially with further uncertainty surrounding Dean Huijsen.Real Madrid will begin the league campaign with only three fully available centre-backs in contention: Antonio Rudiger, Huijsen and Konate.With two positions to fill, the new signing has been given an early opening to make his case.Injuries create opening for KonateView this post on InstagramA post shared by @ibrahimakonateKonate did not join Real Madrid expecting to wait months for his opportunity, but the timing of his arrival has made the competition for places particularly interesting.Militao and Asencio are both unavailable, while Huijsens fitness is also being monitored after he missed the teams first official pre-season friendly.That leaves Mourinho with a selection problem ahead of the Espanyol match.Rudiger remains the most established option, as his experience, standing within the squad and improved physical condition give him a strong chance of starting the La Liga opener.The second position is where things become more open.Huijsen has been competing for a place, but his recent physical issue could affect his preparation. Konate, meanwhile, has arrived fit and has immediately joined training.For the French defender, that could be enough to put him into the conversation.Mourinho could value Konates availabilityIbrahima Konate could start for Real Madrid against Espanyol. (Photo by Dan Mullan/Getty Images)Real Madrids defensive problems last season provide important context to the situation.The team dealt with 54 injuries across the campaign, with the constant disruption making it difficult to establish stability and consistency.That is one reason Konates physical availability could be particularly valuable.The Frenchman featured 51 times for Liverpool during the 2025-26 season. In the two campaigns before that, he made 41 and 37 appearances respectively.Those numbers show that he has been capable of handling a demanding workload, something Real Madrid will need from their defenders over a long season.Now, with Militao and Asencio sidelined, there is little margin for error in defence.If Huijsen is not ready to start against Espanyol, Konate could find himself alongside Rudiger despite having only recently arrived at the club.

PARIS (AP) Champions League titleholder Paris Saint-Germain strengthened its attack even further by signing left winger Mika Godts from Dutch club Ajax on a five-year deal.PSG announced the transfer late on Saturday without giving any financial details. Sports daily L'Equipe estimated the fee to be 55 million euros ($64 million) including bonuses. It was the second signing of the day after Spain's World Cup-winning forward Ferran Torres joined from Barcelona for a reported fee of 50 million euros.The 21-year-old Godts came through the youth ranks at Anderlecht before joining Genk and then Ajax. He played for the Amsterdam-based club's highly rated youth team, Jong Ajax, before breaking into the senior side.In his first full season, the right-footer scored eight goals in 47 matches overall and made an impression in the Europa League. Last season, he stepped up a level with 17 goals and 15 assists in 44 matches and broke into the Belgium side.I cant wait to pull on this (PSG) shirt and experience the Parc des Princes and its supporters," Godts said. "Ill give my all on the pitch to repay the faith placed in me."How much playing time he gets remains to be seen, however, given how strong PSG's attack is. The arrival of Torres followed the summer signing of France winger Maghnes Akliouche from Monaco. The three new recruits join an attack already featuring Ballon dOr winner Ousmane Dembl, France forwards Dsir Dou and Bradley Barcola who is linked with a move to Liverpool and Georgia star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.Dembl set up Dou for PSGs winner against Aston Villa in the UEFA Super Cup on Wednesday.It was the first of a possible six trophies this season for PSG, which faced French Cup winner Lens later on Sunday in the Trophe des Champions a match between last seasons league and cup winners.___See APs full soccer coverage here

As we gear up for the 2026 football season, Aggies Wire is breaking down nearly every player on the Texas A&M roster. Throughout the preseason, each profile will highlight a players background, high school recruiting rankings, and projected role under head coach Mike Elko.Texas A&Ms offensive line underwent major turnover this offseason, with four of five starters selected in the most recent NFL Draft. Graduate lineman Mark Nabou Jr. is the lone returning starter, and his presence is critical as the Aggies rebuild the interior. Tasked with keeping the pocket clean for quarterback Marcel Reed, Nabous ability to play both guard spots and center gives the staff valuable flexibility as they work to identify the best five linemen heading into fall camp.ImpactAfter a limited role as a freshman, Nabou emerged as a fulltime contributor in 2023, starting 12 games as a sophomore and positioning himself for a breakout junior season. A seasonending injury in the opener derailed that momentum, but he responded with an impressive bounceback campaign in 2025, starting 12 of 13 games and helping lead the Aggies to top25 finishes in multiple offensive categories. His return provides stability to a unit undergoing significant change.Strengths & VersatilityCan play all three interior offensive line positionsPowerful frame paired with aboveaverage athleticismToptier pass protection skill setOffers lineup flexibility for a retooled OL2026 Role ProjectionExpect Nabou to be:The starting centerA foundational piece in establishing continuity along the interiorOne of the most trusted veterans on the rosterIf Nabou can take another step forward in his runblocking this season, he can significantly elevate his draft profile while anchoring an offensive line thats still working to gel.

Allen Iverson is a legendary player not only for the Philadelphia 76ers, but for the NBA as a whole. Standing at just 6-feet tall, the No. 1 pick in the 1996 draft made his presence known right away as he averaged 23.5 points as a rookie on his way to Rookie of the Year honors.Iverson won MVP in 2001 as he led Philadelphia to its last finals appearance and led the league in scoring four times. He was an 11-time All-Star, a 3-time steals champion, and a member of both the NBA's 75th anniversary team and the Hall of Fame. He averaged 26.7 points and 6.2 assists across his 14 years in the league for the Sixers, Denver Nuggets, Detroit Pistons, and Memphis Grizzlies.HoopsHype ranked the top 20 shooting guards in the history of the NBA and Iverson takes the No. 4 spot behind Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and Dwyane Wade:A cultural icon as well as one of the best lead guards of his era, Allen Iverson has to be one of the most ridiculously explosive athletes the sport has ever seen, especially out of a player generously listed at 6-feet tall. Iversons crossover was devastating (just ask Jordan), and his bombastic style as a scorer made for thrilling viewing throughout his prime. Iverson was one of the most influential players ever, both on and off the court was one of the most exciting players to watch and in his prime. He could really score with the best of them in such an unorthodox package.Iverson and the Sixers will always be synonymous with each other. His No. 3 jersey hangs from the rafters at the Xfinity Mobile Arena and he has given Philadelphia a boatload of memories they can look back on. His impact on both the Sixers and the NBA cannot be understated.This article originally appeared on Sixers Wire: Sixers legend Allen Iverson ranked 4th-best shooting guard in history

The first leg of the FedEx Cup playoffs has reached its final round. We can only hope the action at the St. Jude Championship is at hot as the weather in Memphis.With temperatures forecast to be back over 100, the golfers hoping to hang onto or snare a spot in the top 50 of the standings will have plenty to fight against. Sungjae Im can't afford to fall off after his impressive start; tied for second at 11 under through three rounds, the Korean has risen from 53rd to 35th. He and Sam Burns, who shot a blistering 8 under in Round 3, enter play today two strokes behind leader Scottie Scheffler.The other name to watch on the bubble is Brian Harman, who comes in tied for sixth with Hideki Matsuyama, Si Woo Kim and Alex Noren six shots back. Harman has soared from No. 65 at the start of the tournament to No. 51, and if he can keep climbing, he could unseat Maverick McNealy for the final berth at next week's BMW Championship.Watch PGA Tour Live on ESPN appSt Jude Championship leaderboardKeep up with the latest scores on the officialPGA Tour leaderboard.St Jude Championship schedule, how to watchRound 4:Sunday, Aug. 16First tee: 7:55 a.m. ETTV coverage: Noon-6 p.m. ETTV channel:Golf Channel (noon-2 p.m.) | CBS (2-6 p.m.)Streaming:ESPN app(Select plan) |Sling (for Golf Channel) | Fubo (free trial, for CBS)Round 4 of the 2026 St. Jude Championship will broadcast nationally on Golf Channel starting at noon before switching to CBS at 2 p.m. Featured group and hole streaming from PGA Tour Live is available on theESPN app(with a subscription to the Select plan) starting at 7:45 a.m.St Jude Championship tee timesAll times Eastern.7:55 a.m.: Ryan Fox, Sahith Theegala8:05 a.m.: Justin Rose, Akshay Bhatia8:15 a.m.: Rory McIlroy, Kristoffer Reitan8:25 a.m.: Alex Fitzpatrick, Matt McCarty8:35 a.m.: Harris English, Aldrich Potgieter8:45 a.m.: Ricky Castillo, Eric Cole8:55 a.m.: Shane Lowry, Min Woo Lee9:05 a.m.: Ben Griffin, Sepp Straka9:15 a.m.: Corey Conners, Michael Thorbjornsen9:30 a.m.: Michael Kim, Sudarshan Yellamaraju9:40 a.m.: Nicolai Hjgaard, Collin Morikawa9:50 a.m.: Cameron Young, Jordan Smith10 a.m.: Sam Stevens, Ryo Hisatsune10:10 a.m.: Matti Schmid, Michael Brennan10:20 a.m.: Aaron Rai, Justin Thomas10:30 a.m.: Alex Smalley, Max Homa10:40 a.m.: Harry Hall, Bud Cauley10:50 a.m.: Russell Henley, Ryan Gerard11:05 a.m.: Keith Mitchell, Ludvig berg11:15 a.m.: Pierceson Coody, Patrick Rodgers11:25 a.m.: Maverick McNealy, Gary Woodland11:35 a.m.: Xander Schauffele, Jacob Bridgeman11:45 a.m.: Jackson Koivun, J.J.

When looking at the Wisconsin Badgers' 2026 college football schedule, they couldn't have asked for a tougher season opener.There will be no true home-field advantage on Sunday, September 6, when Wisconsin and Notre Dame head to Green Bay, WI, for a highly anticipated showdown at Lambeau Field.From there, Wisconsin enjoys a pair of easier non-conference games, but head coach Luke Fickell knows every win has to be earned with this program.Finally, the end of the month sees Wisconsin truly tested on the road as their first Big Ten matchup of the season is against Penn State.After taking on the Nittany Lions, the Badgers only have two other daunting matchups.Wisconsin's schedule gets easier as the season progressesOther than facing USC and Iowa back-to-back on October 24 and October 31, this schedule is much, much easier compared to 2025.Wisconsin must set the tone in Fickell's fourth full year at the helm, and they could do so by shocking the world and taking down the Fighting Irish to kick off September.Western Illinois and Eastern Michigan likely won't stack up to the rest of their competition in the Big Ten, but it's hard to find a more difficult two games on this schedule than a neutral site against Notre Dame and playing at Penn State, and it just so happens that both of those games are in the same calendar month.Contact/Follow@TheBadgersWireon X (formerly Twitter) and like our page onFacebookto follow ongoing coverage ofWisconsin Badgersnews, notes and opinion.You can also follow Jordon Lawrenz on X @jordonlaw_pxp.This article originally appeared on Badgers Wire: Is September Wisconsin football's most difficult month in 2026?

All eyes are on Old Dominion transfer quarterback Colton Joseph, and rightfully so, but linebacker Mason Posa is on a mission this season with the Wisconsin Badgers.Posa may only be a sophomore, but he racked up 58 total tackles as a true freshman. The New Mexico native had four sacks and a pair of forced fumbles, so it's safe to say the sky is the limit for him this season.Wisconsin has gotten better across the board, whether that's with underclassmen who have begun to develop into stars or through the talent head coach Luke Fickell acquired in the transfer portal.Joseph's dual-threat abilities set him apart from the rest, and that was showcased with his opening-play touchdown run against the 2026 National Champions, Indiana, in week one last season.How fast is Colton Joseph?!"If he wasn't playing quarterback, he'd be playing receiver." LB Mason Posa explains what new QB Colton Joseph brings to @BadgerFootball's offense pic.twitter.com/u7Gf2pgCHV Big Ten Football (@B1Gfootball) August 8, 2026"You still gotta worry about the quarterback," Posa said. "Colton Joseph is a 21-mile-per-hour guy, if he wasn't playing quarterback, he'd be a receiver."Posa added, "It's a fun thing to see, but also a pain trying to deal with elusive running backs and the quarterback being speedy, you have to worry about both."Thankfully for Posa, he won't have to defend Joseph, and this running back room come Wisconsin's season opener on Sunday, September 6 against Notre Dame at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, WI.
