Bears receive new stadium pitch from Chicago mayor
It might be too little, too late, but the Chicago Bears received a new pitch from Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson about building the new stadium project in the city. The Bears are moving full steam ahead with the site in Arlington Heights. Mayor Brandon Johnson wants the Chicago Bears in Chicago During an appearance on 670 The Score, Johnson argued that the Bears “belong” to Chicago and wants to keep them in the city for the next 100 years. “Look, the Bears belong in the city of Chicago,” Johnson said on the “Rahimi Harris Show." “And I believe that people know that. There’s a tremendous momentum. As you know, Joe Mansueto with the Fire, we’re talking about hundreds of million dollars to build a new stadium. The 1901 Project on the west side of Chicago, you’re talking about millions of dollars of investments… “We’re on a nice little hot winning streak here. So, my door’s going to remain open. And the hope is that Chicago Bears fans will rally around this moment to challenge all of us to come together to figure out a path to make sure the 100-year history doesn’t end in this moment and we can set ourselves up for the next 100 years.” Johnson points to low crime rates in Chicago Johnson touted declining crime rates as a reason for the Bears to stay in the city. “Homicides are down 32%, shooting victims are down almost 40%,” Johnson said. “We’re seeing unprecedented levels of investment. So, my door still remains open. And perhaps because I am a Cubs fan, I just remain optimistic, no matter what the circumstances are. But they really do belong in the city of Chicago.” Johnson hasn’t had conversations with the Bears in the last two weeks. For now, CEO Kevin Warren and the organization are trying to get enough government support to start building in Arlington Heights as soon as possible. If Warren doesn’t get the help he needs, the Bears could again try to angle for lakefront property in Chicago.
Kevin Love reportedly has preferred buyout destination
Kevin Love is eyeing a return to his roots. The five-time NBA All-Star big man Love has a preferred destination on the buyout market, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints reported on Tuesday. Love would like to end up in Los Angeles. Now 36 years old, Love spent the last two-and-a-half seasons with the Miami Heat. He averaged just 5.3 points and 4.1 rebounds over 10.9 minutes per game in 2024-25 but still managed to shoot 35.8 percent from three on the year. Earlier this summer however, the Heat traded Love to the Utah Jazz as part of a three-team blockbuster deal. Now Love, a 17-year NBA veteran, is pursuing a contract buyout from the rebuilding Jazz. Though he is a native of Lake Oswego, Oregon, Love played his college ball in Los Angeles at UCLA. He also has ties to both L.A. teams — he won an NBA championship with Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James on the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2016 and was also coached on that team by Tyronn Lue, who is now head coach of the L.A. Clippers. Both the Lakers and Clippers are currently sitting at 14 guaranteed contracts each. While they still have spots for two-way and Exhibit 10 players, that means the Lakers and Clippers are both down to their final open roster spot. The ex-rebounding leader Love still has some value, though probably more so as a jokester than as a contributing rotation piece. While Love clearly wants a homecoming to Los Angeles, he may have some convincing to do for either the Lakers or the Clippers to give him that final open roster spot.
Green Bay Packers: Strong Reactions Erupt After Unofficial Depth Chart Release
The Green Bay Packers have finally updated their 2025 depth chart, and there’s a lot to unpack about it. There are unsurprising details like Jordan Love being the No. 1 quarterback and Josh Jacobs being named as the top option in the running back room. Those are simply giveaways. At the same time, there is also compelling information from the depth chart that may or may not leave fans surprised. For one, the wide receiver pecking order has exciting rookie Matthew Golden behind Jayden Reed, who is listed as a starter alongside Dontayvion Wicks. Meanwhile, the left tackle depth chart has Rasheed Walker in front of Jordan Morgan. Of course, it is worth reiterating that this is an unofficial depth chart and that there are still big possibilities of changes on it, as the 2025 NFL season nears. Fans react to Green Bay Packers’ first unofficial 2025 depth chart Rob Demovsky of ESPN also shared the depth chart, and it’s garnered quite a reaction from fans online. “Golden should be starting, wicks and Doubs are average at best,” said a fan on X. Another one said: “Forgot we signed Hardman. Have heard absolutely nothing on him this camp” From a commenter: “Bob I just woke up from a 2 month coma why is Bo Melton under the CBs” “Why tf is Golden a backup slot wr…,” a triggered social media user posted. Via a different commenter: “Jordan Morgan still can’t crack the starting lineup. Awesome waste of a first round pick ” Said another: “Why do the packers always try so hard to phase their rookies in instead of just playing them. They did the same with cooper was last year when all the fans were begging to play him. Golden better be a starter week 1”
Former Commanders draft pick is falling apart with no sign of recovery
The Washington Commanders' new era started with a bang. This all centered around the team's decision to select quarterback Jayden Daniels at No. 2 overall in the 2024 NFL Draft. The collateral damage of that decision is experiencing a different trajectory. And the signs suggest that Sam Howell is falling apart with no sign of recovery. Howell became the first Washington quarterback to start every regular-season game since Kirk Cousins in 2023. There were flashes of promise, but nothing to convince general manager Adam Peters he was worthy of another shot. When they set their stall on Daniels, the former North Carolina standout was traded to the Seattle Seahawks. Former Commanders QB Sam Howell is struggling to make an impact in Minnesota After backing up Geno Smith last season, Howell was on the move again. This time, it was the Minnesota Vikings who thought they could salvage his career, albeit in another understudy role behind J.J. McCarthy. It seemed as if the No. 2 quarterback spot was Howell's to lose heading into the offseason. But after some struggles throughout training camp, that's not as clear-cut as it once appeared. NFL analyst Thor Nystrom from Fantasy Life got to see Howell up close during the Vikings' practice on Monday. His blunt message on social media left no doubt about how he perceived the signal-caller's production. And spoiler alert, it didn't make for good reading. This is an ongoing trend. Howell isn't picking things up quickly enough, and it's showing on the field. Head coach Kevin O'Connell is an accomplished quarterback developer, but even he might have his work cut out here. Howell isn't a rookie anymore. These are more than just growing pains, so it'll be interesting to see if some live-fire reps in the preseason can turn this concerning tide. That'll be the strongest measuring stick, especially considering he threw just 14 passes in 2024. The Vikings believed enough in Howell to bring him on board. They also don't have much behind him on the depth chart, which is one thing working in his favor. But unless the consistency increases and his confidence level within O'Connell's offense grows quickly, a situation could emerge where Minnesota cuts its losses. That would place Howell firmly on the brink of NFL irrelevancy. He might be there already, but if he was deemed unworthy of even being a backup, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what comes next. Howell has to dig deep and show the correct resolve. This is also the final year of his rookie deal, so the stakes couldn't be much higher heading into a pivotal preseason stretch for the gunslinger. More Commanders news and analysis
