Mike Tomlin has been called a lot of things. But “nitwit?” That’s taking things a little too far. For his role in Russell Wilson‘s early training camp injury, bigger-than-life Pittsburgh media personality Mark Madden called Tomlin a nitwit. It wasn’t that he directed Wilson to take part in the sled push conditioning drill, only that he allowed it.

It has not been a boring week for USC football, that’s for sure. We have seen the Trojans flip a prospect from Georgia and lose a prospect who was flipped by Georgia. We have seen some commitments. We have seen a JUCO offensive lineman sign with USC. We have seen a lot. USC is just about to begin preseason camp, and the offseason is about to recede into the past in a very real way. We’re about to talk about on-field football developments for each of the next five months. It really is that time of year; we made it. Xavier Griffin has also made it to USC.

Finding a new defensive coordinator wasn’t supposed to be on the 49ers’ 2024 offseason to-do list. Alas, the club parted ways with defensive coordinator Steve Wilks and created a leadership vacuum on that side of the ball. One of the club’s interviews for the position was former Chargers...

New England Patriots linebacker Matthew Judon and the team are reportedly “far, far, far” apart in contract negotiations, per the Boston Sports Journal’s Mike Giardi. Judon was not at practice on Tuesday, following his public display of frustration when speaking with Patriots coach Jerod Mayo on the field on Monday. The four-time Pro Bowler is looking for a restructured deal in the final year of his contract, and things appear to be reaching a boiling point.

Moreau spent the bulk of last season as Patrick Surtain‘s boundary sidekick in Denver. The Broncos moved Moreau into their starting lineup midway through the season, and the veteran helped stabilize the position during the team’s five-game win streak. The Vikings will be team No. 6 for Moreau.

To watch Simone Biles perform is to watch a master at work. There is just no comparison. She’s the best gymnast we’ve ever seen, bar none. She does things that no one else can do. Even when there’s a snag, it seems like she always manages to achieve perfection anyway. She’s just incredible in every sense of the word.

Training camps are underway across the NFL, and unfortunately, so are summer injuries.

Indianapolis, IN

The Indiana Pacers inked former UConn Huskies guard Tristen Newton to a two-way contract on Saturday.
Newton was the 49th player selected in the 2024 NBA draft, joined in the draft class by fellow UConn starters Stephon Castle, Donovan Clingan, and Cam Spencer.
The 6’5 guard averaged 9.0 points, 4.6 assists, 3.8 rebounds, and 1.2 steals across five Summer League games, although he shot just 20% from the field and 18.2% from the three point line.
“Tristen Newton, tremendous [growth] from game one to game five,” Pacers summer league head coach Jannero Pargo said. “Understanding our offense more, playing more confident. Being able to call plays and run our sets and be more comfortable out there.”
Newton averaged over 15 points, six assists, and six rebounds in his final season with UConn, leading Dan Hurley’s team to back-to-back national championships as the primary ball-handler.
Now, his experience, winning mentality, facilitation, and positional rebounding skills will give Indiana additional point guard depth available throughout the season, although Newton will likely spend most of his time in the G League with the Mad Ants.

Baton Rouge, LA

One of LSU baseball’s top signees in the 2024 recruiting class has yet to sign his pro contract. The deadline for him to sign is 4 p.m. CT on Thursday. Konnor Griffin is one of the best baseball players in the country, regardless of his just being a high school kid. Griffin signed his letter of intent to play for LSU but no one assumed he would make it to Baton Rouge because he was an early-round pick in the 2024 MLB draft.

For the money, there isn’t really a worse hitter than Tigers shortstop Javy Báez. He ranks near (or at) the bottom in virtually every hitting metric this season, and his abysmal plate discipline makes for an easy matchup whenever a pitcher gets Báez in a two-strike count.
