The Green Bay Packers opened their week of prep for Sunday’s matchup with the Chicago Bears looking as healthy as they’ve been in a long time — and of course, that lines up just in time for a critical battle with Chicago at Lambeau Field.
Several Packers returned to practice on Wednesday, including three players designated for return from injured reserve.
Running back MarShawn Lloyd, defensive end Brenton Cox, and defensive end Collin Oliver were all back after lengthy absences. Lloy...

The first Chicago Bears injury report ahead of the team’s Sunday showdown against the Green Bay Packers is OUT. And it comes wiith some pleasantly surprising news as linebacker T.J. Edwards returned to practice. This news comes with a caveat that requires further explanation. But with that being said, good news (even when anchored with a caveat) is not to be taken lightly — especially this time of year.

Business is booming for the Chicago Bears backfield.
And, in particular, for running back D’Andre Swift.
The elder statesman (lol he’s just 26) of the 1-2 punch spearheading the Bears’ ground game was named the FedEx Air and Ground Player of the Week:

The last decade has been a journey for Matthew Boyd, from trying to break through as a young starter with the Tigers, to suffering injuries and trying to make it back with the Mariners as a reliever, to returning to the Tigers as a starter, to having surgery and making it back with the Guardians, to breaking out as an All-Star with the Cubs this past season.
He’ll return to the Cubs’ rotation in 2026, hopefully as effective as he was in 2025, and maybe a touch better able to sustain the c...

You want to place a bet on your favorite team, but you live in a state where online sports betting remains illegal or restricted. A friend mentions using a VPN to connect through a server in New Jersey or Michigan. It sounds simple. You download an app, flip a switch, and suddenly you gain access to DraftKings or FanDuel. Many bettors try this exact move every day. The real question is: does it actually work, and what risks do you face?

On a lovely, snowy, day-after-a-late-game Wednesday for Blackhawks fans, I want to share a terrific, highly recommended read from Dom Luszczyszyn and Sean Gentille at The Athletic . Especially after the absolute show he put on in Vegas last night, it’s a great perspective on Connor Bedard ‘s ascent to the elite tier of NHL superstars this season.
The piece isn’t exclusively about Bedard; Macklin Celebrini and Leo Carlsson are both also on ridiculous paces to have huge, breakout seasons. B...

Will Brewers trade Freddy Peralta this offseason? It may not matter.
They lost their president of Baseball Operations, David Stearns, to the Mets. They lost their manager, Craig Counsell, to the Cubs. They traded their two elite closers, Josh Hader (to the Astros) and Devin Williams (to the Yankees). They traded their ace, Corbin Burnes, to the Orioles. And they lost their star shortstop, Willy Adames, to the Giants in free agency. None of it mattered. No matter how many times the Milwauk...

Kay’s deal pays him $5 million in 2026, $5 million in 2027 with a $2 million buyout on a $10 million mutual option for 2028, league sources said. — Will Sammon (@WillSammon) December 3, 2025

Each offseason, we see these kinds of stories percolate: a big-name free agent is available, his hometown team has a need in his area, and maybe they will have surprising interest. I don’t even think it’s merely cynical, as it’s probably pretty typical for free agents to at least want to feel out whether their hometown team will have interest. So there are probably dialogues most of the time, and since it serves the agent’s interest to let that info out, it gets out.
I kinda figured that ...

Bears rookie running back Kyle Monangai was as good as it gets against the Eagles in Week 13.
The seventh-rounder rushed for 130 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries (5.9 YPC). Monangai’s big afternoon marked his second 100-plus yard rushing performance this season, and brought his season totals to 591 yards and five touchdowns.
As I wrote in Tuesday’s Good, Better, Best , Monangai’s surge in usage in the middle portion of the schedule has allowed him to stack up favorably with the re...
