Patrick Mahomes has seen plenty of items on his cell phone device in recent days about quarterbacks from other teams making more and more and more money. Because the media has generally accepted new-money annual average as the universal currency for ranking player pay, it looks like Mahomes is woefully underpaid.

BUFORD, Ga. (AP) — The Atlanta Falcons showed off their new players — and a healthy dose of optimism — in front of fans on Saturday night. The Falcons practiced at Seckinger High School only a short drive from the team’s usual practice facility in Flowery Branch, Georgia. Because of ongoing renovations of their facility, the visit to the high school stadium provided the first of only two opportunities for home fans to watch the team during training camp. There was a long line of fans waiting an hour before the gates opened.

What does the NCAA’s settlement agreement mean for Division-I college golf?. In short: More potential scholarships but fewer available roster spots. The NCAA along with the power conferences and lawyers representing former and current D-I athletes from three different lawsuits filed a 100-page settlement agreement on Friday that will bring monumental changes to college athletics – and not just football and basketball. The agreement, which still needs to be finalized by judicial approval in the U.S. District Court of Northern California, would allow schools to directly compensate their athletes (up to 22% of average revenue from media rights, ticket sales and sponsorships; or between $20-22 million initially) but also force schools to pay former athletes from all sports (dating to 2016) a collective $2.78 billion for past damages over a 10-year period.
