Malik Willis Reportedly Agrees to Deal With Miami Dolphins Worth $67 Million

  • Malik Willis agreed to a 3-year, $67 million deal with the Miami Dolphins, including $45 million guaranteed — making him the highest-profile QB off the free-agent market.
  • He was the top-ranked QB free agent despite just six NFL starts; in limited action with Green Bay over the last two years he posted 6 TDs, 0 INTs and a 79% completion rate.
  • Expectations for a bigger payday (some projected up to $30M/year) didn’t materialize — teams balked at the small sample size even amid a thin QB market, though Miami’s coaching staff was seen as a potential fit.

Ex-Eagles Standout Jaelan Phillips Reportedly Agrees to Massive Deal with Panthers

  • After nearly landing Milton Williams last offseason, the Panthers landed edge rusher Jaelan Phillips — a four-year, $120 million deal with $80 million guaranteed.
  • Phillips had just five sacks last season but generated 73 pressures (ninth among edge rushers), including 41 pressures in eight games with the Eagles, showing a strong fit in Vic Fangio’s system.
  • At 26 with 28 career sacks and some injury history, Phillips is a high-upside, big-money gamble that’ll be a fun storyline to watch this season.

'It’s Going To Be Lit': USA, Mexico Set For World Baseball Classic Clash

  • Mexico–USA has become a heated WBC rivalry after Mexico upset the U.S. in 2006, 2013 and famously in 2023 — that loss still motivates Team USA.
  • It’s a star-studded matchup: the U.S. features Aaron Judge, Kyle Schwarber and top pitchers (Tarik Skubal, Paul Skenes) while Mexico counterpunches with sluggers like Alejandro Kirk, Jonathan Aranda and Alek Thomas.
  • Big stakes and big atmosphere — both teams are 2-0 in Pool B, the winner moves into strong position to advance, and Monday’s game at Houston’s Daikin Park is expected to be “lit.”

2026 NFL Free Agency Grades: Colts Re-sign Alec Pierce; Kenneth Walker to Chiefs

  • Chiefs went big on the ground, signing Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker III to a three-year deal to bolster the run game for a returning Patrick Mahomes.
  • Cowboys traded for edge rusher Rashan Gary — gave up a fourth-round pick and took on a costly contract — a move people will debate as a win-now gamble.
  • Rams revamped their secondary with a blockbuster trade for Trent McDuffie and a free-agent signing of Jaylen Watson, a splash that raises questions about future cap space for Puka Nacua.

Kenneth Walker Finds New Home, Reportedly Agreeing to Record Deal with Chiefs

  • Super Bowl LX MVP Kenneth Walker III is leaving the Seahawks and has agreed to join the Kansas City Chiefs.
  • He just signed the largest free-agent deal ever for a running back: three years for up to $45 million.
  • Walker rushed for 1,027 yards in 2025 and erupted in the playoffs (313 yards, 135 in the Super Bowl), a timely boost for a Chiefs team that needed help running the ball.
