Two immigrants from south of the border told the City Council Monday they were harassed when using hotel vouchers for shelter in Denver. Speaking through an interpreter, Leivy Ortega and Henry Aguilar said they received vouchers for hotel stays from an unnamed non-profit. But they had problems using the vouchers, they said. Ortega said she came to Denver from Connecticut and lived in her car for 15 days. She received a three-day hotel voucher, she said, but hotel staff initially would not honor it. She did not name the hotel. She said staff finally looked at her paperwork and gave her a room, but they wanted to charge her. for it. She said they initially weren’t going to allow her to stay because she has a service animal.

In just over a week, we're going to be watching the Saints at training camp in California. This time of year is exciting, to say the least. There's a lot of things New Orleans needs to show everyone before they gear up in Week 1, and we asked a good bulk of those questions previously. Those answers are going to come in due time, and will ultimately dictate success or failure for the Saints this season.

The Washington Commanders are adding former Carolina Panthers general manager Scott Fitterer to their front office, multiple outlets reported Monday. Fitterer, 50, will serve as a "personnel executive" under general manager Adam Peters, per reports. Fitterer worked for the Seattle Seahawks from 2001-20, rising to vice president of football operations before being hired as Carolina's GM in 2021. He was fired in January after the team went 14-37 under his leadership. His tenure there will be remembered, in part, for the firing of two head coaches -- Matt Rhule and Frank Reich -- in less than a one-year span. Peters joined the Commanders from the San Francisco 49ers in January. The Commanders finished last season with a 4-13 record and selected Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Jayden Daniels with the No. 2 overall draft pick in April. --Field Level Media

According to Howell, Lewis agreed to a two-year contract that will pay him $315,000 this year and $350,000 the following year. The 46-year-old native of Sulphur Springs, Texas was initially hired as a defensive analyst this past winter.
Lewis’ promotion gives Colorado yet another full-time assistant coach with extensive NFL experience. A former All-Big East...

Once upon a time, most NFL teams held their training camps away from home. But in the 2000s, teams began trending away from traveling for camp. In 2000, 21 of the league’s 31 teams (68%) went out of town for their summer practice sessions. By 2021 — the season after every team held training camp at their practice facilities as a reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic — just six of 32 teams (19%) held training camp away from home.
