The Mets subsequently scouted Koosman and signed him in 1964.

However, the injury during Baltimore's opening offensive possession forced the team to change its quarterback plans immediately. Huntley replaced Jackson after initially being expected to serve as the backup. He had previously made three starts in Jackson's absence during the 2026 season, recording a 1-2 record across those appearances.

The quarterback change was a significant development for Baltimore, which entered the Week 8 contest expecting Jackson to lead its offense. The injury also brought Huntley back into an important starting role after his previous appearances earlier in the season.

The Buckeyes failed to score a touchdown until the fourth quarter, leaving them unable to overcome USC's advantage. USC extended its lead to 27-9 during the third quarter after Mark Bowman produced a 70-yard reception and run.

Arlington Heights is considered the most likely destination for the proposed facility, rather than Chicago itself. The potential agreement would nevertheless keep the franchise within Illinois and end the uncertainty surrounding its stadium location.

Raftery will serve as a Fox analyst for the men's game at the Eternal City Tip-Off. The event also features a women's matchup between the universities, and all four teams and their fans are scheduled for a private audience with the pope on Saturday.

Raftery told The Associated Press before traveling to Rome that the occasion could influence his commentary, although his spontaneous broadcasting style might prove difficult to restrain.

Under the reported agreement, the Bears will give the Titans their first-round picks in 2027 and 2028, along with a fourth-round pick in 2027. Chicago will receive Simmons and a fifth-round selection in 2028, according to sources cited by ESPN and NFL Network.

The Bears enter the deal with a 5-2 record, while Tennessee stands at 1-6. Simmons, 29, joins a Chicago defense that already includes former Mississippi State teammate Montez Sweat.

Paul enters the comeback with a professional record of 12 wins and two losses, including seven victories by knockout. His last appearance ended in a sixth-round stoppage against Joshua on December 19, when the heavyweight bout left Paul with jaw fractures that required multiple surgeries in December and February.

According to Most Valuable Promotions, Paul was cleared to resume full-contact training earlier this month. Before his defeat to Joshua, he had won six consecutive fights, including a November 2024 event on Netflix against former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson.

According to the conference, proceeds from the UCF fine will fund student education initiatives. The decision follows several similar incidents involving fans targeting BYU, a university affiliated with the faith commonly known as the Mormon church.

Video shared on social media showed UCF fans chanting an anti-Mormon slur before Saturday's kickoff. University security removed some fans from the stadium during the game, which UCF ultimately won in overtime.

Johnson said he intends to remain involved in coverage of the NCAA men's basketball tournament for CBS and Turner Sports. He also addressed health concerns he has faced in recent years, explaining that his experiences have reinforced the importance of spending more time with his family.

Johnson clarified that his departure from the show does not mark the end of his broadcasting career. His announcement follows a long association with Turner Sports, where he has worked since 1989.

Dowman received a red card after reacting to a sliding challenge from Fleetwood's Harrison Neal. Arsenal intend to appeal the decision, which could otherwise trigger a three-match domestic suspension and rule the teenager out of Sunday's trip to Liverpool and subsequent games against Hull and Newcastle.

Arteta addressed the confrontation during his post-match press conference, emphasizing that the club had prepared Dowman for the emotional demands of the match. He had earlier told Sky that he wanted to review the incident before assessing the situation.

His addition gives the Chiefs another experienced kicker as they navigate ongoing concerns about field goal accuracy. According to the source reports, Tucker was one of three kickers who worked out with Kansas City on Tuesday. Harrison Mevis and Ben Sauls also participated, while Butker remained the only kicker on the Chiefs' 53-man roster Wednesday morning.

Butker, a 10-year veteran who has been part of all three of Kansas City's Super Bowl championship teams, has missed five of 16 field goal attempts this season. Two of those misses came during Sunday's loss to the Seattle Seahawks, according to the source report.

New Jersey improved to 8-4-0 and has won six of its past seven games. Dallas fell to 7-4-1, ending a five-game winning streak, according to the NHL's game report. Stars goalie Casey DeSmith stopped 22 shots.

Hellebuyck joined the Devils in a blockbuster trade with the Winnipeg Jets on Friday. New Jersey sent forwards Dawson Mercer and Nick Bjugstad, goalie Nico Daws, the rights to forward Alexander Command, a second-round pick in the 2029 NHL Draft and a seventh-round pick in the 2027 NHL Draft to Winnipeg.

According to the series schedule reported by Yahoo Sports, Game 4 was set for 8 p.m. ET Tuesday. A Brewers victory would complete a World Series sweep and make Milwaukee the first team to accomplish that feat since the San Francisco Giants in 2012.

Milwaukee could also become the first team to sweep both the League Championship Series and the World Series since the League Championship Series adopted a best-of-seven format in 1985, according to Yahoo Sports.

His potential absence would sideline one of Minnesota's leading scorers during a season in which the team hopes to contend for the NBA championship. Edwards played through chronic runner's knee during last season's playoffs, according to the report. His production declined before a separate injury to his left knee forced him out during Minnesota's second-round series loss to the San Antonio Spurs.

Although Edwards concentrated on rest and recovery during the offseason, his right knee continued to cause discomfort early in the new season. He grabbed the knee in pain following a collision during Sunday's victory over the Toronto Raptors.

Prosecutors accused Beasley and former NBA veteran Ed Davis of conspiring to manipulate Beasley's statistical performance in four games during the 2023-24 season. Beasley played for the Milwaukee Bucks at the time, while Davis was no longer in the league, according to the allegations outlined in the case.

Investigators alleged that financial debt motivated the scheme. Reports cited in the case indicated that Beasley owed millions of dollars in gambling-related debt and received a loan from Davis before the two allegedly worked with three other individuals to manipulate game outcomes for financial gain.

ESPN's Shams Charania and Tim MacMahon reported that Jackson will not require surgery for the latest knee injury. The setback comes after surgery ended his 2025-26 season prematurely, limiting his availability during his first campaign with Utah.

Jackson injured his right knee with 10:04 remaining in the second quarter against Memphis. He recorded six points, three rebounds and two assists in 10 minutes before leaving the game. The Jazz ultimately lost 110-105.

Posada spent his entire 17-year playing career with the Yankees and earned five All-Star selections. Despite his longstanding connection to the franchise, he said he has little reason to visit the team and believes its coaching staff could benefit from a stronger voice.

Asked about a possible return to the organization, Posada expressed doubt that the Yankees would want him involved.

The rankings reflect a weekend in which three of the previous top-five teams lost, two of the league's three previously unbeaten teams suffered setbacks, and one of the two winless teams secured its first victory. The analysis also identifies a potential weakness or notable strength for each team as Halloween approaches.

Buffalo, now 5-1, climbed from third place despite concerns about its pass defense. According to the analysis, the Bills rank fourth-worst in the league in expected points added per dropback and third-worst in overall defense. They have allowed more than 250 passing yards in five of their six games.

Neely, known as Uncle Neely, shared the allegation in comments cited by Essentially Sports. He suggested that some people who criticize Sanders earn money from their coverage of the Colorado coach and that the proposed payment was intended to end their commentary about him.

Neely described the alleged offer and said the people approached had declined it.

Nelson, 30, has earned Pro Bowl honors in each of his first eight NFL seasons and received three first-team All-Pro selections since Indianapolis drafted him sixth overall out of Notre Dame in 2018. His arrival gives Seattle an established interior offensive lineman as the team pursues a stronger performance during the 2026 season.

The trade also raises questions about Seattle's starting guard positions. Nelson has played exclusively at left guard during his NFL career, while Grey Zabel, the Seahawks' 2025 first-round pick, currently occupies that spot. Anthony Bradford has started at right guard since 2023 and recently returned from injured reserve while playing the final year of his rookie contract.

Moore sustained the injury when he attempted to slide during a scramble in the second quarter against USC. Linebacker Desman Stephens II hit him late, and Moore remained on the field for an extended period before an ambulance transported him to Los Angeles General Medical Center for evaluation. The team later confirmed the concussion, although his MRI and CT scans showed no abnormalities.

Before the injury, Moore completed 69.7% of his passes for 926 yards and nine touchdowns without an interception in four games. His absence has coincided with a significant decline in Oregon's offensive production, with the Ducks scoring fewer than 20 points in each of their three games without him. Oregon lost two of those contests.

New Jersey, which holds a 7-4-0 record, has not ruled out playing Hellebuyck during the trip. Coach Sheldon Keefe said the goalie looked sharp in practice, but medical clearance and coaching decisions must be completed before he enters the lineup.

Hellebuyck spent more than four weeks skating after missing Winnipeg's training camp last month. His new team acquired him in a blockbuster deal announced Friday, ending his 11-season run with the Jets organization.
