The New England Patriots’ 2026 free agency class may lack distinct star power, but it does include several key contributors particularly on defense. Among them is safety Jaylinn Hawkins, who was tied for the team lead in interceptions last season and ranked third in defensive snaps. Despite the Patriots falling short in Super Bowl LX, […]
BOSTON — Nikola Vučević’s acclimation with the Celtics picked up Wednesday night. Since acquiring him ahead of last week’s NBA trade deadline, Boston has largely operated as usual.

No better way to rebound from a tough loss than getting a dominant win against a struggling team.

He’s since embraced the sixth man role and is solely focused on helping the Lakers win. As a reserve player, Hachimura […]
The New England Patriots’ loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl LX did not just happen because of one or two missed opportunities or negative plays, but rather because of the eventual world champions simply being better across the board.

BOSTON — Anfernee Simons wasn’t shocked to learn he’d been traded from the Celtics. The longtime Portland Trail Blazers guard was embroiled in trade rumors almost immediately upon arriving in Boston in July, and understood that the Celtics could look to move him ahead of the deadline. Still, the news stung. Simons had just woken […]
The 2025 NFL season has officially wrapped up. While Jets fans endured a week-to-week horror show, the year ended on a somewhat sweet note as the Seahawks dismantled the Jets’ arch-rival New England Patriots in the Super Bowl.

Morning, all! Jack Leiter is frustrated that he won’t be able to pitch in the World Baseball Classic, as he watched his dad pitch in the inaugural tournament and it has always been a goal of his.

The New England Patriots’ season came crashing down in Super Bowl LX, but there is little reason to be disappointed nor is there much time to do so. Not only did the team of first-year head coach Mike Vrabel exceed expectations, after all, it also will need a quick turnaround considering the shortened nature of […]
Good morning! MLB Network’s ongoing project to determine the 10 best players at each position continued yesterday, as they finally made it to the bullpen. And if you’re a Red Sox fan, this is what you want to see: Two Sox relievers on the list, with Aroldis Chapman taking the top spot. Not too shabby. […]
How will Boston respond after the Knicks defeat? Some of Boston’s best performances come after a loss.

On Friday night, just a few days before the New England Patriots attempt to assume their rightful position as the class of the NFL (narrator: they did not), I was doing what any 28-year-old man does on a Friday night: talking about relief pitching.

Welcome to Wednesday, folks! The Bruins continue their NHL hibernation with the Winter Olympics well underway over in Italy, so there hasn’t been a ton to talk about around these parts. That will likely change today, as the men’s hockey tournament gets underway. There will be two games on Feb. 11 and three games on […]
Christian Gonzalez has set himself up for a massive pay day.
