Heading into the 2024 season, the New York Jets desired to revitalize their offense. A returning Aaron Rodgers is a good start, but the real progress came via the offensive line. Two veteran tackles, a healthy Vera-Tucker, and an exciting prospect in Olu Fashanu. They have the makings of a stable unit, which is great news for the Jets running back room. After a tremendous return from ACL surgery, Breece Hall shined with over 1500 scrimmage yards. Such production just over a calendar year removed from ACL surgery is impressive. However, he’s not the only talent inside this running back group in 2024.

This week, City Council is set to begin discussing the proposed deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars to renovate EverBank Stadium. At its center is the agreement for a $1.4 billion stadium overhaul, the cost of which would be split 50-50 with the Jags after the city also covers $150 million in overdue maintenance and repair work. The city has said it plans to pay for its $625 million construction portion, for the most part, by redirecting revenue from a half-penny sales tax, passed as “the Better Jacksonville Plan.” But it’s not a straight line from the tax revenue pot to getting cranes in the air — the plan depends on budget changes to avoid debt on other projects, and using money that would have gone toward paying down that debt on the stadium reno.

Is the Houston Rockets’ strategy really to try to trade for Kevin Durant? Their recent track record seems to suggest the exact opposite. In fact, they appear to have a theory that betting against (shorting) Kevin Durant, is a strategy that pays big dividends. It seems like an odd thing to think about a player who is universally recognized as a generational talent and an all-time great. A guy who is, by many, considered to be the best pure isolation scorer the NBA has ever seen. But here we are again, the Rockets are looking to capitalize on their theory that having Kevin Durant on your team isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

The Jacksonville Jaguars made several additions to the defense in the offseason. One of the biggest ones was defensive tackle Arik Armstead, who will join the pass rush tandem of Josh Allen and Travon Walker. But despite having plenty of talent and depth in the trenches, Sam Monson of Pro Football Focus doesn't think the Jags' defensive line is among the best in the league. In fact, he believes they're one of the worst.
