Texas A&M swimming and diving traveled to Austin to compete in the Texas Invitational against several other schools, including Texas, from Nov. 19 to Nov. 21. Carrying momentum from winning their last three meets, the No. 25 men and No. 24 women both competed. The Aggies finished with 16 qualifying cuts over the three day meet and fourteen top-10 swims in the same period. The Aggies finished with eight qualifying cuts and seven top-10 swims in school history on Day 2 of the event. Sophomore Chase Swearingen produced A&M’s best finish of the day, netting a runner-up effort in the men’s 100 butterfly. He set a career-best time of just 45. 30, comfortably under the 46. 11 qualifying threshold. Junior transfer Ava Whitaker also qualified, garnering a seventh-place finish in the women’s 100 fly. She followed in Swearingen’s footsteps by setting a lifetime-best time of 52. 34, earning her ninth on the Aggies’ all-time top-10 list for the event. The Fightin’ Farmers also stood out in the 100 breaststroke, with a pair of “A” finishes from sophomore Ella McQuinn and junior Logan Brown for the women and men, respectively. McQuinn set a time of 59. 42 to debut at No. 7 on the program’s all-time list, and Brown placed eighth in the final with a time of 52. 45. Junior Will Heck wasn’t going to be left out, taking second place in the “B” final, setting a lifetime-best time of 52. 51. The men wrapped up the day with a runner-up finish in the 200 free relay, powered by the foursome of sophomore Ben Sytsma, junior Ben Scholl, Brown and Swearingen. These men set a time of 1: 16. 59, the fifth-fastest mark in school history and a provisional cut. The women finished up their Day 2 placing fifth in the same event, posting a time of 1: 28. 77,. The quartet of fifth year Kaitlyn Owens, freshman Eloise Williamson, freshman Reagan Sherrard and McQuinn netted the impressive result. On Day 3, A&M netted five qualifying cuts and five top-10 swims. The top finish for the Maroon and White on the day was Stysma in the men’s free 50 with a time of 19. 24, good enough for third in the event. Scholl also impressed on Day 3 with a season-best time of 19. 15, earning a qualifying cut alongside Stysma. Owens placed fourth in the 100 back with a season-best time of 51. 78, also a qualifying cut. In the 100 breast, freshman Lillie Sczech netted a 10th-place finish, debuting in ninth-place in A&M’s top 10 with a lifetime-best time of 2: 09. 25. Brown finished fifth in the men’s 200 breaststroke with a lifetime best 1: 52. 11, easily coming in under the 1: 54. 95 threshold to qualify. The women for A&M closed out Day 3 with a seventh-place finish in the 400 medley relay, with the bunch of McQuinn, Whitaker, Owens and Sherrard touching in 3: 35. 10. The men concluded Day 3 with a ninth-place finish courtesy of Scholl, Heck and freshmen Alejandro Michelena and AJ Robinson in a time of 3: 10. 13. The Fightin’ Farmers finished with three qualifying cuts, and two top-10 swims on the final day of the Texas Invitational. Sytsma ended up as the top finisher for A&M for the second time, with a runner-up finish in the men’s 100 free, posting a lifetime-best time of 42. 30. The swim moved him to fifth all time in the school record books. Brown took fourth in the 200 individual medley, well under his lifetime best and the qualifying time. This result moved Brown to No. 3 in the school record book. McQuinn set a lifetime-best time of 48. 54 in the B final of the 100 free, a strong result to beat the qualifying time. The men wrapped up the final day with a runner-up finish and a provisional cut in the 400 free relay with Scholl, Sytsma, Swearingen and Brown posting a time of 2: 49. 38. The women closed out the Texas Invitational with a ninth-place finish thanks to McQuinn, Sherrard, Owens and freshman Celina Springer touched in 3: 17. 11. The Aggies will head to Tucson, Arizona, to face Arizona on Friday, Dec. 19.

Cleveland Browns rookie Shedeur Sanders stepped into his first NFL start, and he came away with a big win. Through four quarters, he mostly played mistake-free football, helping propel the team to a 3-8 record. Following the win, the rookie signal caller sent a pointed message to his doubters. Read more: How Did Shedeur Sanders Do in First Browns Start? Pundits, fans, and more have been calling for Sanders to get a shot at starting, but the Browns kept fellow rookie Dillon Gabriel behind center for six games. Gabriel suffered a concussion in Week 11, leading to Sanders finally getting his first NFL start. Sanders showcased some elite skills, especially in a bomb downfield for 53 yards to Isaiah Bond. The rookie ended his day with 11-for-20 attempts, 209 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. Despite playing against the Las Vegas Raiders, Sanders put together an impressive performance that led to a dominant 24-10 final score. Granted, the nine sacks the Browns got against Geno Smith also helped a great deal.

It ain’t gonna happen,” Sanders said with confidence. There are a lot of people who have had many things to say about Sanders, but he now has a win in his first career start. Not only that, but his final stat line and performance were certainly not terrible by any stretch of the imagination. Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski will now have a big decision to make. Should Gabriel clear concussion protocol, will he make the big change? Gabriel has only won one game in his six starts. The Browns’ offense clearly needs some help, but Sanders was able to inject some much-needed confidence in the group to walk away with a big win. The Browns take on the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13, and it is anyone’s guess who will be behind center for that game. Stefanski has not been the most consistent with his comments on Sanders, so Gabriel might be back if he is healthy to play. For more on the Browns, head to Newsweek Sports.

The Golden State Warriors continue to miss Jonathan Kuminga from their lineup due to his bilateral patellar tendinitis injury. Warriors coach Steve Kerr has a complicated history with Kuminga over the past few seasons. Many question their relationship not being strong as a reason why Kuminga will not have a long-term future in Golden State. The head coach was asked about Kuminga’s timetable to return to the court and provided an honest answer that gives little short-term hope to Warriors fans. “Honestly, I just talked to the training staff. They tell me it’s day to day,” Kerr explained to the media. “So, talking to JK, and he said he’s not moving that well, so I can’t tell you what the outlook is. JK can tell you that better than I could, so he needs to feel better and be able to move better before we can put him out there. Maybe we’ll get imaging done on the knee, but yeah, we got to figure it out.” Kerr: Kuminga Is Day To Day The most surprising thing about Kerr’s news is that he remains hopeful enough to list Kuminga as day to day on the injury report. More often than not, a coach saying someone is not moving well and has an uncertain return timetable will have them ruled out for at least another week or two. However, the team staff still felt Kuminga is day to day, which implies he can return any game coming up sooner than later. Golden State has missed Kuminga for five straight games and it hurts the team’s overall depth. The hot start for Kuminga saw him averaging 17. 4 points and 7. 1 rebounds in 31. 0 minutes over his first seven games. Confidence started to grow that Kuminga could be the third scoring option behind superstars Stephen Curry and Jimmy Butler. Unfortunately, things slowed down after the first seven games. Kuminga averaged just 9. 5 points in 24. 0 minutes per game over his next six games before the injury ruled him out. Does Kerr Still Believe In Kuminga? Conflict between Kerr and Kuminga in past seasons fractured their relationship to never grow in the same way it did with the coach for Curry, Klay Thompson and other stars. Kuminga and his agent have made some critical comments in the past over how Kerr and the Warriors use the young player. However, this season proved that Kerr is willing to trust Kuminga if he feels the 23-year-old is contributing to the lineup and doing what is asked of him. Kerr ultimately benched Kuminga this season before the injury became a factor to show he had quickly lost confidence. Golden State only has Kuminga locked into a two-year contract, and his name is often floated around on the trade market. Kuminga getting healthy and playing consistently could see him either becoming a big factor to the Warriors’ success or the perfect young trade piece to improve their starting lineup.

The Los Angeles Lakers have proven to be one of the stronger squads in the Western Conference this season, despite missing LeBron James throughout the opening stretch. With James back in the mix, the Lakers anticipate a boost, but that hasn’t stopped them from staying on the hunt for a notable acquisition through the trade market. According to NBA Insider Jake Fischer, the Lakers are still eyeing the former Golden State Warriors champion, Andrew Wiggins. When discussing the Lakers’ desired type of players ahead of the 2026 trade deadline through a live stream on Bleacher Report, Fischer mentioned that the Lakers would like to add a “lob-threat big man” and a “two-way wing.” Wiggins certainly fits the latter description. Wiggins has spent his career with three different teams. He entered the NBA as the top pick in the 2014 draft out of Kansas. Although he was drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers, the LeBron-led squad shipped him off to the Minnesota Timberwolves. As a young wing making his way through the league, Wiggins thrived as a featured piece in Minnesota. The trade to the Warriors ended up being a major change of scenery for him, though, despite the fact he took a backseat to multiple players, including Steph Curry. During the 2021-2022 NBA season, Wiggins appeared in 73 games for the Warriors. He made 46 percent of his shots from the field, and drilled 39 percent of his threes. The young veteran averaged 17. 2 points per game, 4. 5 rebounds per game, and 2. 2 assists per game. That year, Wiggins was voted as an All-Star and helped contribute to the Warriors’ title run. He would spend three more seasons with the Warriors. Last year, Golden State wrapped up the Wiggins era by trading him to the Miami Heat in a major blockbuster centered around Jimmy Butler. After arriving in Miami, Wiggins averaged 19. 0 points, 4. 2 rebounds, and 3. 3 assists, while shooting 45 percent from the field. The Lakers-Wiggins rumors started over the offseason. It wasn’t clear if the Lakers were aggressively pursuing the 30-year-old wing, but he’s been labeled as an LA target for several months at this point. With the NBA season well underway, it seems the Lakers still have Wiggins on their radar, as long as the Heat are willing to make a deal. So far, Wiggins has appeared in 15 games for the Heat. Seeing the court for 33 minutes per game, he has posted averages of 16. 7 points, 4. 9 rebounds, and 2. 8 assists. Defensively, he is averaging nearly one block and over one steal per game. With the Miami Heat holding a winning record through the first month of action, there doesn’t seem to be a need to cut ties with the 30-year-old veteran just yet. Still, the Lakers will have him on the radar.

The Eagles had a chance to build on their 21-14 lead, but Jake Elliott’s 56-yard field goal try was wide right. That gave the Cowboys good field position. In only three plays, the Cowboys covered the 54 yards to the end zone. Dak Prescott completed a 43-yard pass to George Pickens and Javonte Williams ran for 3 yards to set up Prescott’s 8-yard touchdown run. The Cowboys have come all the way back from down 21-0 to tie the game at 21-21. Prescott is 19-of-27 for 297 yards with two touchdowns and an interception.

The Vikings’ offensive performance on Sunday in Green Bay was the kind you’d see from a 3-12 team playing out the string in a pointless Week 17 tilt long after being eliminated from playoff contention. Of a team that was on its backup quarterback and had its fanbase saying, “We have to get a better No. 2 next offseason so we don’t have to go through THIS again.” Of a team that did not have any interest in opening up its playbook, and when it was finally forced to, you understood why. Minnesota managed 4 total yards of offense in the second half of a 23-6 loss to Green Bay on Sunday. That number dips below zero if you include a 5-yard loss on a false start infraction. The second half drive chart: 3 and out 3 and out 3 and out interception interception The offensive highlights of the final 30 minutes were sacks of J. J. McCarthy, where the quarterback was ruled down at his own 1-yard line rather than them being ruled safeties. The game was over the moment Minnesota went down multiple scores after a blunder by Myles Price on a punt return. The Vikings couldn’t block Packers star edge rusher Micah Parsons, or anyone else on Green Bay’s defensive front. McCarthy isn’t nearly good enough at this juncture to operate the offense under the most optimal conditions, as proven last week in a 19-17 loss to Chicago wherein Minnesota played 58 minutes of putrid offense . at home . against one of the worst defenses in football. When facing a good defense in a bad script? Forget it, it’s over. It’s non-competitive. Minnesota’s offense is an eyesore. Vikings coach Kevin O’Connell admitted postgame to reporters that his team’s margin for error is “razor thin” at the moment. The narrow path to victory he described sounded like a team hoping to milk the clock to shorten the game and win 13-10. Never would you have thought this was possible in the O’Connell era. In the coach’s previous three seasons guiding the Vikings’ offense, Minnesota has ranked sixth, fifth and sixth in the NFL in passing yards. That includes a season in which Josh Dobbs, Nick Mullens and Jaren Hall took turns filling in after Kirk Cousins went down with a season-ending injury. Minnesota is averaging 138 yards through the air in McCarthy’s six starts. On a day when they lost by three scores, the Vikings attempted only 19 passes, and even that somehow felt like too many. There was never a guarantee Minnesota would always be good, but with O’Connell, Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, the assumption was the Vikings would always be fun. Yet this neutered offense is currently one of the toughest watches in football. It can be enjoyable to watch a youthful signal caller learn, develop and blossom, even amid growing pains. But this experiment is getting worse every week. O’Connell and McCarthy keep referring to mechanical changes the 22-year-old is attempting to master and implement on the fly. That process, frankly, feels impossible to complete midseason. It’s currently going about as poorly as you’d expect. As a result, fans likely feel worse and worse about this team with each passing performance. And with playoff odds now sitting south of 5% after this latest loss, what’s the point of tuning in? It’s certainly not for entertainment; there was none of that to be found on Sunday.
