Jury reaches a surprise verdict in Tyreek Hill’s assault case
Tyreek Hill is getting some good news and some bad news this week in his assault case.
A jury in Miami, Fla. surprisingly delivered a mixed verdict on Tuesday in the civil lawsuit against the former All-Pro wide receiver Hill. The jury found Hill liable on two counts of battery against his ex-wife Lakeeta Vaccaro and ordered him to pay a sum of $500,000 in compensatory damages, Xuan Thai of ESPN reports.
However, the jury also found that Hill was not liable for the eight remaining claims that had been made by Vaccaro, ultimately denying Vaccaro the punitive damages that she was seeking. Hill was said to be “relieved-looking” as the verdict was read and went on to hug one of his attorneys.
The six-person jury reportedly rendered their verdict after nearly four hours of deliberation. You can read Thai’s full report on the situation here.
Vaccaro, 30, filed her assault and battery lawsuit against Hill, 32, in Sept. 2025. In the lawsuit, Vaccaro, who filed for divorce from Hill in April 2025, alleged that Hill had been physically violent against her on multiple occasions after their marriage in late 2023 (read the full details here).
Hill, who also settled a lawsuit against him from a different woman earlier this year, remains an unsigned free agent after suffering a devastating knee injury with the Miami Dolphins last season. Rumors have been swirling recently about a potentially imminent new NFL deal for Hill, but it remains to be seen if Hill will be facing discipline from the league under the NFL’s Personal Conduct Policy.
Jose Ramirez gets the memes for his costly error in ALCS Game 2
Jose Ramirez went full Bill Buckner in Game 2 of the ALCS.
The Cleveland Guardians star Ramirez made a very costly error against the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday. During the fourth inning at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Fla., the Rays had runners at the corners with two outs in a scoreless ballgame.
Tampa Bay second baseman Ben Williamson proceeded to hit a seemingly routine grounder to Ramirez at third base. But the ball ate Ramirez up, glancing underneath his glove and ultimately going between his legs into the outfield to allow the lead runner to score.
Here is the video of the play.

The two-out error gave the Rays a 1-0 lead, and they went on to score two more times in the inning to open up a 3-0 advantage over the Guardians. As a result, Ramirez heard it from social media over the ugly miscue.

The seven-time All-Star Ramirez, 34, is usually known as a sure thing at third base. But sometimes, the unexpected can happen in the postseason.
Ramirez is also a big-time troll and trash-talker, even when it comes to his own teammates. During Tuesday’s ALCS game though, Ramirez ended up being the one who got trolled.
Report: Red Sox may part ways with 1 All-Star
The Boston Red Sox could be facing a real reckoning this offseason.
Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran is projected to earn around $11.1 million in arbitration next season, but the Red Sox seem unlikely to want to give him that figure (per a report this week by Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic). As a result, Duran could either agree to a lesser deal or ask to be non-tendered, allowing him to hit free agency.
Duran did notably already play out the 2026 season for the Red Sox on a lesser salary. He agreed to a one-year, $7.7 million deal with the team last winter, overriding his original $8 million club option.
The lefty-hitting Duran, 30, has been with Boston for his entire MLB career (since 2021) and was an All-Star in 2024. But he had a forgettable year in 2026, batting a career-worst .207 over 151 games (though Duran still managed to produce 20 home runs, 69 RBIs, and 21 stolen bases).
Duran also caused some problems in Boston over the course of the year. He crashed out on a teammate during a game in July and managed to get into even more altercations with fans as well.
We learned several months ago that the Red Sox were potentially willing to part ways with Duran. With 22-year-old phenom Roman Anthony waiting in the wings at left field, that might just become a reality come this winter.
Pablo Torre is now planning to investigate LeBron James’ situation
Pablo Torre is looking to continue his generational run.
The award-winning investigative journalist Torre spoke this week at Front Office Sports’ “Tuned In” summit. During the appearance, Torre revealed that he is planning to investigate the situation of Philadelphia 76ers star LeBron James, particularly when it comes to James’ use of a Fanatics helicopter.
“It’s something that I also have been watching,” said Torre of the situation with James. “I know that Fanatics logo. I saw that.
“On that story, I will say that we are very interested,” Torre added about his team. “We’re also getting tips from NBA owners, who are sending me [the James helicopter story] being like, ‘What is this?’”
James, who just signed with the 76ers earlier this offseason, will actually be living in New York while he plays for the team and will be taking helicopter rides back and forth. But earlier this month, it was revealed that James would be receiving the costly chopper trips completely for free as part of his endorsement deal with Fanatics (read the full details here).
Meanwhile, Torre has become a major star in the world of journalism thanks to his investigative work, most notably breaking the Kawhi Leonard salary cap circumvention story that resulted in the LA Clippers being docked five future first-round draft picks. While it is unclear at this point if the situation with James is even remotely similar, Torre is now committed to getting to the bottom of that one as well.
1 notable Knicks player is expected to be a trade candidate
The writing may be on the wall for one longtime New York Knicks player.
Knicks guard Miles McBride is expected to be a candidate for trade this season, according to a report this week by veteran NBA writer Marc Stein. Additionally, Stein notes that rival teams are anticipating that McBride could become available.
McBride, still only 26, has been a member of the Knicks for his entire NBA career (since 2021). He has blossomed into a fan favorite, serving as a spark-plug scorer off the bench for New York over the years.
The former second-round pick McBride is also coming off his best career season. He averaged 12.0 points per game on a career-high 41.3 percent from deep in a sixth-man role as the Knicks eventually went on to win the 2026 NBA championship.
But McBride is also eligible for an extension as he is entering the final year of his contract this season at a paltry $3.96 million. McBride is clearly deserving of a raise at this point, but the second-apron-conscious Knicks do not seem to be willing to give it to him.
Recently, the Knicks decided to shut down contract negotiations with all of their extension-eligible players until later on in the season, affecting McBride as well as some All-Star talents on the roster. As for McBride himself, it sounds like he could have some suitors at the February trade deadline who might be willing to take a risk on his ability to potentially produce more in a greater role.
Shohei Ohtani makes a strong public statement amid his struggles
Shohei Ohtani’s body may be failing him, but his confident remains unshaken.
The Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Ohtani spoke with reporters on Tuesday. During the interview, Ohtani said (through his interpreter Will Ireton) that he remains confident in his ability to help the Dodgers win in spite of his ongoing health woes.
“The symptoms shouldn’t be the reason why I can’t hit,” said Ohtani, per Jack Harris of The California Post. “The results, [I] take full responsibility.
“The number one priority is for the team to win,” Ohtani continued. “So whether that be for me to contribute on the offensive side, I do want to feel confident in the approach that I’m taking on that day, whether that be mechanical or anything else. So that’s really just been my focus overall.”
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts also told reporters earlier in the day that Ohtani will remain in the lineup for Game 3 of the NLCS against the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday.
Ohtani, the four-time MVP, has been hobbled by some well-documented knee and biceps issues over these last several weeks and months (even requiring a stint on the injured list in September). As a result, Ohtani has looked severely compromised, batting a woeful .150 with a .411 OPS, zero extra-base hits, and seven strikeouts through his first six postseason games this year.
During the Dodgers’ Game 2 loss to the Brewers on Monday, Ohtani even produced an extremely embarrassing strikeout as part of a forgettable 0-for-4 performance. There was some talk that the Dodgers would consider a drastic move with Ohtani amid their 0-2 hole in the NLCS, but that will not ultimately come to pass for now.
Joe Brady sends stern warning to James Cook
James Cook is one of the most productive running backs in the league, but the Buffalo Bills standout may have to sweat his playing time for the near future.
Bills coach Joe Brady warned Tuesday that Cook’s playing time could be negatively impacted if his fumbling issues continue. Cook fumbled twice during the Bills’ 37-34 overtime win over the Los Angeles Rams on Monday and lost one of them.
“We’re putting the ball in harm’s way. We know the way we lose football games is we turn the ball over,” Brady said. “He’s doing so many good things running the football, and I don’t want to lose sight of how great he’s running the ball right now, but putting the ball on the ground is negating all the positive.
“I have all the confidence in him. That’s why I put him right back out there. But at some point there has to be consequences when we’re putting negative stuff out there. … It’s gotta improve or the carries are gonna decrease.”

— alex brasky (@alexbrasky) October 13, 2026
Presumably, benching Cook is not something the Bills would do lightly. He tallied 1,621 rushing yards last season to lead the league, and his yards per game have actually risen to 106 this season. However, he has four fumbles in five games, and has lost two of them.
Cook was well aware of the fact that he got away with one on Monday night. Brady has firmly put him on notice if he did not already know it.
Jon Sumrall got roasted by his teenage son over Florida’s loss
The Florida Gators suffered an ugly loss to South Carolina on Saturday, and the performance was bad enough that it apparently sparked a minor crisis within coach Jon Sumrall’s family.
Sumrall divulged that his 13-year-old son left early during Saturday’s 38-19 loss at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium in Gainesville, Fla. That was not the ultimate insult, however. The Gators coach said his son sent him a text message after the game, warning him that “I don’t know that this is forgivable.”
Jon Sumrall said his 13-year-old son left The Swamp during the South Carolina game and sent him this text after the loss: “I don’t know that this is forgivable.” 💀💀
— Zach Abolverdi (@ZachAbolverdi) October 12, 2026
Obviously, the comment was tongue-in-cheek, and Sumrall is sharing it with amusement. Still, nobody really wants to hear their own son that disgusted with one’s coaching performance.
It has certainly been a season of peaks and valleys for the Gators in Sumrall’s first year in charge. The team started 4-0, which even he did not expect, but has now lost two straight against Missouri and South Carolina. The defeat against the Gamecocks was the team’s first home loss of the season, however.
Florida’s next two games are against Texas and Georgia. Sumrall must be hoping things don’t get too ugly against such quality opponents.
Bears lose key defender to 2-game suspension
The Chicago Bears will be without one of their most important defenders for the next two games.
Bears edge rusher Montez Sweat received a two-game suspension Tuesday for a violation of the league’s performance-enhancing substance policy. He will miss games against the Atlanta Falcons and New England Patriots as a result of the suspension.
The Bears starting edge will miss the next two weeks due to suspension
— Field Yates (@FieldYates) October 13, 2026
Sweat has started all five games for the Bears this season and has collected two sacks. He established himself as a key part of the Chicago defense last season, when he tallied ten sacks in 17 games.
Sweat’s best overall season came in 2023, when he racked up 12.5 sacks while playing for the Bears and Washington Commanders.
There is no great time to lose a starter for two games, but this is particularly poor for the Bears, who are coming off an ugly loss to the Green Bay Packers. They have also had issues with depth at the edge position this year, including one player retiring mid-season instead of staying on with the team.
Timberwolves coach takes clear shot at Julius Randle
The Minnesota Timberwolves are fairly openly telegraphing that they are not all that upset to see Julius Randle go.
Timberwolves coach Chris Finch offered up a quote about his team’s acquisition of LaMelo Ball from the Charlotte Hornets during the offseason, and it was a pretty obvious shot at Randle. Finch emphasized the amount of joy Ball brings to the Wolves, and seemingly contrasted that with what Minnesota subtracted.
“We referred to ourselves as a moody team in the last couple of years at times, and it’s probably gotten in our way. We’ve traded moodiness for giddiness, so we’ve got to kind of get back to some sort of equilibrium,” Finch said, via Mike Vorkunov of The Athletic.
Randle and Naz Reid were the two players Minnesota traded for Ball. It was Reid who used the word “moodiness” to describe the team’s issues last season, and there was ample speculation that he was talking about Randle, who struggled to produce in the team’s second-round playoff loss to the San Antonio Spurs.
Finch’s use of the word “moodiness” certainly seems intentional. At this point, it’s pretty clear that the Timberwolves think they are engaging in addition by subtraction by trading Randle away.
Jayden Daniels gets ripped by NFL superstar
One NFL superstar is putting the blame firmly on Jayden Daniels for the disastrous ending to Sunday’s game between the Washington Commanders and New York Giants.
Green Bay Packers edge rusher Micah Parsons had some harsh words for Daniels on the latest episode of his “The Edge” podcast. Parsons said Daniels might end up costing Commanders head coach Dan Quinn his job, and that Daniels has no excuse for not being ready to run another play with the clock running down in overtime.
“Jayden Daniels probably cost my man Dan Quinn his job,” Parsons said. “I’m a big Jayden Daniels fan, but the reality is he probably cost a lot of people their jobs this past weekend.
“There’s no way I’m taking a sack with 14 seconds and no timeouts. It would be different if Jayden Daniels was a rookie. This is your third year. You’ve been to the NFC Championship game. You’ve been in big moments before. Even after a sack, you’re casually getting up. Look at the play. He’s not even urgently getting up.”
While Quinn took responsibility for the fiasco that cost the Commanders a chance to win Sunday’s game, Daniels is taking plenty of the blame for the confusion and lack of urgency. Parsons’ comments are more pointed than most, and it should be noted that he played for Quinn when the Commanders coach was the Dallas Cowboys’ defensive coordinator.
For now, Daniels does not appear to have cost Quinn his job. It may, however, be a matter of time with Washington off to a 1-3-1 start.
Josh Allen gets distracted by fight during his postgame interview
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen got distracted during his postgame interview by a fight that broke out at the end of Monday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams.
Cameras caught Rams offensive lineman Alaric Jackson throwing a punch at Buffalo’s Bradley Chubb following the Bills’ 37-34 overtime win over the Rams. The abrupt confrontation caught everyone on the field by surprise, Allen included.
Allen was doing an interview with ESPN Deportes when the fight broke out, and it nearly derailed the entire conversation.
“We gotta break something up back here,” Allen said.

— ClutchPoints (@ClutchPoints) October 13, 2026
Ultimately, there did not turn out to be much need to separate anything. Jackson was led away without much further incident, and Chubb kept his cool and did not escalate the situation.
The Rams were plenty frustrated after their loss, and it permeated through the entire team. Allen’s indifferent reaction pretty much sums up how much the Bills cared about that.
Rams make major change after their Week 5 loss
The Los Angeles Rams are making a fairly predictable change after their Week 5 overtime loss to the Buffalo Bills.
The Rams are releasing kicker Harrison Mevis one day after he missed two key field goals against the Bills, according to multiple reports.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported that the Rams moved quickly to sign kicker Blake Grupe off the New York Jets’ practice squad as a replacement for Mevis.
The #Rams are moving on from K Harrison Mevis, per me and @MikeGarafolo, as coach Sean McVay authors a special teams shakeup. They are signing Blake Grupe off the #Jets practice squad. https://t.co/6qvMnb0W9b
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) October 13, 2026
Mevis missed a 50-yard field goal on the Rams’ opening drive Monday, but the real talking point was him falling victim to a blocked kick on a game-winning overtime try (video here). Coach Sean McVay foreshadowed the move by openly lamenting his lack of aggressiveness in overtime and settling for a kick attempt instead of trying to win the game with his offense.
The Rams are no stranger to special teams issues, but they just have not found a way to solve them over the course of multiple seasons. Mevis is the latest to go, but there does seem to be a structural problem within the organization.
Mariners may hire new manager away from division rival
The Seattle Mariners need a new manager, and they may take the unusual step of hiring one directly away from an AL West rival.
The Mariners plan to meet with Houston Astros manager Joe Espada regarding their managerial vacancy, according to Mark Feinsand, Daniel Kramer, and Brian McTaggart of MLB.com. Espada is still employed by the Astros, but the team granted the Mariners permission to meet with him.
Espada’s contract with the Astros is set to expire at the end of the season. The team has not made any public indication of whether they plan to bring him back or not.
The Mariners are making wholesale changes following a hugely disappointing 2026 season that saw them go just 76-86. In addition to letting former manager Dan Wilson go, they are overhauling their coaching staff. Some big names from their roster are expected to move on as well.
Espada was Dusty Baker’s successor as Astros manager, and has largely overseen a team stuck in a transitional period. He is 256-229 overall with two AL West titles to his name during his three-year tenure.
Mike Tomlin makes clear how terrified he is of 1 NFL star
Mike Tomlin is not known for being nervous when it comes to facing off against NFL foes. There is one player, however, that he wants nothing to do with it.
The former Pittsburgh Steelers head coach refused to even say the name of Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry while covering Sunday’s game between the Ravens and Atlanta Falcons. Instead, Tomlin only referred to Henry as “the big runner.”
So much respect for The Big Runner.
— Mike Tomlin (@CoachTomlin) October 12, 2026
Tomlin battled Henry for years, first while Henry was with the Tennessee Titans and later once he joined the Ravens. The former Steelers coach had a front-row seat to some of Henry’s most memorable moments, whether he liked it or not.
Tomlin certainly is not the only coach terrified of Henry, who keeps rewriting the record books at age 32. He did not disappoint on Sunday, as he rushed for 102 yards in Baltimore’s overtime win.
Henry has seven 1,000-yard seasons to his name, and he appears well on his way to an eighth. Through five games, he already has 476 rushing yards and seven touchdowns.
Rams make painful NFL history in loss to the Bills
The Los Angeles Rams were on their way to taking down Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills on Monday — until they weren’t.
Like two champion heavyweights, the Bills and the Rams traded big blows throughout the contest until Buffalo emerged on top in overtime, 37-34.
The Rams looked to send Buffalo to sleep after forcing a fumble in overtime and setting up what would have been a game-winning field goal.
But Buffalo’s Greg Rousseau blocked Rams kicker Harrison Mervis’ attempt.
Moments later, Bills kicker Tyler Bass finished it off with a game-winning 45-yard field goal.
The Rams hit a historic low point with the tough loss to Buffalo, as they wasted all the positives they showed in the contest.
According to OptaSTATS, Los Angeles became the first team in league history to lose a game despite racking up at least 400 total yards, recording 30 or more first downs, scoring five or more touchdowns, finishing without a turnover and converting at least 50% of its third-down attempts.
The Rams are the only team in NFL history to: amass 400+ total yards gain 30+ first downs score 5+ TDs convert 50% of their 3rd downs have 0 turnovers …and yet lose the game.
— OptaSTATS (@OptaSTATS) October 13, 2026
Matthew Stafford had a huge performance that ultimately was not enough to pull LA to a victory. He went 40/54 for 383 passing yards and three touchdowns, while Puka Nacua had 138 receiving yards and a touchdown. Davante Adams, meanwhile, found the end zone three times.
Los Angeles’ loss also continues the team’s pattern of alternating wins and losses. The Rams have alternated between wins and losses on their way to a 2-3 start to the 2026 NFL season.
Sean McVay’s team will aim to get back up in Week 6 with a home game against the Arizona Cardinals.
Derek Jeter delivers a concerning assessment of the Dodgers amid NLCS
The Los Angeles Dodgers have their backs against the wall, as they find themselves down 2-0 to the Milwaukee Brewers in the National League Championship Series.
The Dodgers swept Milwaukee in the same round last season, but the Brewers are turning the tables on LA this time around.
For former New York Yankees superstar shortstop Derek Jeter, the Dodgers won’t survive the Brewers unless Los Angeles’ offense finds its groove.
“I agree, the Dodgers are in trouble unless they can figure out how to string together some hits because on top of them being in a little bit of trouble, now the Milwaukee Brewers offense is getting hot and [Brice] Turang is getting hot. [Christian] Yelich is getting hot. [William] Contreras continues to hit,” Jeter said following the Brewers’ 7-4 win in Game 2 on Monday at American Family Field in Milwaukee, Wisc.
“We all know what [Jackson Chourio] gonna do. It’s gonna be a tough time. This is the biggest hurdle they’re gonna have to overcome if they want to go back and win a third championship in a row.
“I agree, the Dodgers are in trouble. Unless they can figure out how to string together some hits.” – @DerekJeter | @MLBONFOX https://t.co/ovurffydJm
— FOX Sports (@FOXSports) October 13, 2026
That is going to be easier said than done for the Dodgers, but if they are also too talented to be counted out. Through two games in the NLCS, Los Angeles has hit just 10-for-59 with an ugly .447 OPS. In Game 2, the Dodgers went just 0-for-4 with runners in scoring position.
Perhaps a friendlier atmosphere will give Los Angeles the spark it needs.
Game 3 of the Dodgers-Brewers series will be played on Wednesday at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, Calif.
Eagles hit with more unfortunate running back news
The Philadelphia Eagles’ running back room has another injury to deal with.
With Saquon Barkley and Tank Bigsby banged up, the Eagles saw running back Will Shipley go down with a lower-body injury during Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.
Shipley left the contest in the second quarter and did not return.
It was later revealed that Shipley “suffered a partial tear of his plantar fascia,” according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
Schefter added that the injury could keep Shipley out for multiple weeks, adding more headaches for Philadelphia’s backfield.
Shipley made an impact before leaving the Jaguars game, as he put the Eagles on the board with a rushing score in the second period. After he left, the Eagles were led on the ground by Dameon Pierce, but he only came up with 14 rushing yards on 11 carries.
Bigsby is on injured reserve, while Barkley’s status remains up in the air after a hamstring injury forced him to miss the game against Jacksonville.
Between their injury woes and underperformance on the field, it is just not a great time for Philadelphia, which is 2-3 and on a three-game losing skid.
The Eagles will look to turn things around in Week 6 against the Carolina Panthers at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. Pa.
Josh Allen had a great message for Matthew Stafford after beating the Rams
Josh Allen led the Buffalo Bills to a 37-34 win over the Los Angeles Rams on Monday, but he seemingly couldn’t stop gushing over his counterpart after the contest.
Allen showed nothing but respect for Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford following the Bills’ huge Week 5 win at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif.
“He’s the MVP of last season for a reason. He’s one of the greatest, if not the greatest thrower of the football of all time. He’s an awesome dude. He’s extremely humble. He’s as tough as they come,” Allen told Scott Van Pelt on SportsCenter after the game.
“He’s what every quarterback should aspire to be. I feel like I’ve learned a lot from him, watching him over the years. So I’ve started developing a little bit of a relationship with him over the last couple of seasons. I’m just a huge fan of his,” added the 2024 NFL Most Valuable Player.
Josh Allen really respects Matthew Stafford: "He’s the MVP of last season for a reason. He’s one of the greatest, if not the greatest thrower of the football of all time. He’s an awesome dude.

Allen and Stafford each put on a show for their respective teams in their “Monday Night Football” showdown. Allen did most of his damage on the ground, leading everyone in the game with 121 rushing yards and a touchdown on 10 carries, while adding 210 passing yards and a touchdown against an interception on 12/19 passing.
As for Stafford, he had a performance worthy of all the praise he got from Allen despite Los Angeles’ loss. He went 40/54 for 383 passing yards and three touchdowns with zero interceptions
The Rams had Buffalo on the ropes in overtime, but a blocked field-goal attempt by Los Angeles kicker Harrison Mevis set up the Bills’ game-winning drive, capped by a field goal from Tyler Bass.
Josh Allen’s highlight leaves wife Hailee Steinfeld going wild
Hailee Steinfeld had a proud wife moment on Monday. After watching her husband, Buffalo Bills superstar quarterback Josh Allen, pick up 21 rushing yards on 2nd-and-17 with under two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter against the Los Angeles Rams, Steinfeld was shown on the broadcast looking absolutely hyped.
Here is a video of Steinfeld loving Allen’s big run.

— NFL (@NFL) October 13, 2026
It was just one of the many plays Allen made in that game at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif., that left fans in awe of his abilties.
The former NFL Most Valuable Player went 12/19 for 210 passing yards and a touchdown with an interception, while also rushing for 121 yards and a touchdown on 10 carries. He had more rushing yards than the entire Rams backfield.
Together with running back James Cook III, Allen consistently lit up Los Angeles’ defense against the run. Cook, despite his fumbles, had 111 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 25 carries, as the Bills came away with a 37-34 overtime win over Matthew Stafford and the Rams, while improving to 4-1 through five weeks of football in the 2026 NFL season.
Steinfeld has always been very supportive of Allen, especially now that they’re married. They tied the knot in 2025 and welcomed their first child in April.
