Published: Friday, 12 December 2025 In Accra, Souleymane Faye, 15, experienced one of those moments that shape a career. Wearing the Senegal school jersey, the boy everyone has nicknamed as ‘Commissioner’ made his mark at the 2025 African Schools Football Championship, to the point of leaving with a rare distinction: Best Player of the Tournament. This was no small achievement for a boy still finding his feet, and one that would take him to Morocco a few months later for the TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) 2025… on the sidelines, as a ball boy. “It means a…

Take Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, for example, who was sidelined after he was tackled by a Jacksonville Jaguars defensive lineman in Week 2. The video of how he got hurt wasn’t immediately clear, leading Morse to ponder a multitude of questions: “Was he walking [after getting hurt]? Was he in a scooter? Which foot was it? How did it happen? Was it a contact? Was it noncontact? Does he have an injury history of this specific injury or this area of the body? Then from there, you narrow it down to the different injuries you can have for that…

Bijan Robinson, Bucky Irving and Emeka Egbuka all found the end zone when these teams met earlier this year, as they’ll be amongst the most sought after NFL DFS picks.

Both squads utilize multiple running backs, so Tyler Allgeier, Rachaad White and Sean Tucker deserve consideration for your NFL DFS strategy. Rostering low-risk,…

Baker Mayfield’s mid-career rejuvenation may be the defining story of this current era of Buccaneers football. But Todd Bowles is a defensive-minded head coach, and while Tom Brady’s 2020 arrival changed everything for Tampa Bay, it was Bowles’ defense (when he was serving as defensive coordinator under Bruce Arians) that carried the Buccaneers to a Super Bowl title that season. In the Mayfield-Bowles era, Tampa Bay’s defense has been lacking. This season, the Buccaneers rank No. 21 in total defense, averaging 338.4 yards per game allowed. Their run defense is once again a top-10 unit, at No. 8 overall, thanks…
