Cam Ward Receives Historically Low 'Madden NFL 26' Rating

The overall ratings for rookies were released by Madden NFL 26 on Wednesday and Tennessee Titans quarterback and the No. 1 overall selection from this year's draft, Cam Ward, did not fare too well as compared to other No. 1 overall picks over the years. According to the game's official website, Ward scored an overall rating of 72 , which falls well short of the top-10 rookie ratings in the game. The rating is also historically low for a No. 1 overall pick. According to The Sporting News' Dan Treacy, Ward's rating is the lowest for a top pick since Michael Vick received a 72 back in 2001. However, Ward did score the highest-overall rating among rookie signal-callers, surpassing the New York Giants' Jaxson Dart and the New Orleans Saints' Tyler Shough, both of whom tied for second with a 68.

Browns Owner Clears the Air on Who Decided to Draft Shedeur Sanders

When the Cleveland Browns drafted Shedeur Sanders in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, many wondered if owner Jimmy Haslam had forced the pick. After all, it was odd that the Browns took Sanders, who came off the board two rounds after Cleveland drafted another quarterback, Dillon Gabriel. However, Haslam shot down the notion that he was the one who decided to draft Sanders, saying that it was general manager Andrew Berry's call instead. “If you had told me Friday night driving home y’all are gonna pick Shedeur, I would say that’s not happening,” he said, according to Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com . “We had a conversation early (Saturday) morning and then we had a conversation later that day. I think we had the right people involved in the conversation. “At the end of the day, that’s Andrew Berry’s call. Andrew made the call to pick Shedeur. Just like who’s gonna start or what play we’re gonna call, that’s Kevin (Stefanski’s) call. But that’s Andrew’s call. He made the c...

Costco's New Rule Is Causing a Stir at the Free Sample Tables

For many Costco loyalists, free samples are more of a ritual than just a perk of each visit. A warm pretzel bite here, a surprise smoothie sip there. Some folks even time their shopping around sample peak hours (you know who you are). But as it turns out, not everyone is welcome to graze quite so freely. Costco has quietly implemented a stricter policy when it comes to who gets to enjoy the goods, and the new rule is especially aimed at solo snackers under 18: No adult, no sample. That’s right. If a kid rolls up to a sample station unaccompanied, they’ll be politely denied until a parent or guardian is in tow. It’s not personal. It’s policy. Related: Costco Releases Viral New Summer Dessert The reasoning is actually pretty sound. With food allergies on the rise and ingredient labels that read like small novels, the warehouse giant isn’t taking any chances. Sample servers need a grown-up’s go-ahead to hand anything over, just in case little Timmy is unknowingly reaching for a cashew...

Popular Food Blogger's Car Stolen With Beloved Dog Inside, Pleads For His Return

It's now been a harrowing 48 hours since a popular food blogger's car was stolen with his dog, Noodles, inside, and still no clues about the car thieves and dog nappers. Taylor Hannon runs the incredibly popular Austin Eager blog in Austin, TX. On Friday, a distraught Hannon took to Instagram to share to his nearly 100,000 followers that his red Honda Civic was stolen with Noodles inside early Friday morning at around 4:40 a.m. Hannon shared he was packing his car for a weekend getaway. He started the car to get the air conditioner going and then packed Noodles, an 8-year-old black terrier mix. Hannon says the car was parked a mere 15 feet from the front door of his apartment in South Austin. He went inside to retrieve Noodles' bed. When he returned to his car, Hannon says he saw two people jumping into his car and taking off with it and Noodles. The perpetrators arrived via two Bird scooters, Hannon says. A friend of his, Marco Garcia, told Fox 7 that they've cal...

UFC Fighter's Nasty Eye Injury Leaves Fans Concerned

UFC Fight Night in Abu Dhabi is going down on Saturday and one of the early fights on the card is catching everyone's attention. The featherweight fight between Steven Nguyen and Mohammad Yahya saw plenty of knockdowns, all of which Yahya was the victim of. In fact, Nguyen broke a UFC record by knocking Yahya down six times. The fight was finally stopped following Round 2, when Yahya's eye was swollen to a level that must be seen to be believed. The swelling might signify a broken orbital bone, but that hasn't been confirmed.  Here's a look at the photo of his eye. Mohammad Yahya reacts after suffering a defeat against Steven Nguyen.

Travis Kelce's Father Has 2 Words to Describe Taylor Swift

If Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are meant to stay together forever, Kelce's father Ed seemingly approves. We've seen plenty of Kelce and Swift on television and social media since the Kansas City Chiefs tight end and "Fortnight" singer went public with their relationship in September 2023. But Ed Kelce knows Swift in a different light, having seen the pop megastar up close and personal countless times. Ed, 74, doesn't give too many public interviews, but he did speak with the Daily Mail while attending the American Century Championship in Lake Tahoe, Calif. earlier this month. His sons Travis and Jason were participating in the annual event. During his interview with  the Daily Mail , Ed spoke glowingly of Swift, saying it "borders on the surreal" to be in her orbit and calling her "very special. “She is a very special person. One of the most giving and caring people I've ever met," Ed said. NEW YORK, NEW YORK - DECEMBER 28: Taylor ...

Kelsey Plum Takes Shot at Caitlin Clark's All-Star Team Over 'Pay Us' Shirts

The WNBA All-Star Game took place on Saturday night, and the players showed unity amid collective bargaining agreement negotiations with T-shirts the ladies wore before tip-off. The shirts read "Pay Us What You Owe Us," which is a message to the WNBA as players seek higher wages in the next CBA. However, the unity dissolved a bit after the game, when Los Angeles Sparks guard Kelsey Plum said that Team Clark, the All-Star roster chosen by Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark, was not involved in the meeting for the T-shirts. "As players, we didn't know that was going to happen," Plum revealed  in a press conference. "So, I think it was kind of a genuine surprise. The T-shirt, just a united front, was determined this morning that we had a meeting for.  "Not to tattletale but zero members of Team Clark were very present for that," Plum added with a laugh. Caitlin Clark of the Indiana Fever wears a shirt saying "Pay Us What You Owe Us." S...

Astronomer Announces Final Andy Byron Decision After Kristin Cabot Video

Colin Kaepernick’s Married Now: New Wife Nessa Diab Lashes Out

Former NFL star and Quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers Colin Kaepernick is married now, according to his wife Nessa Diab. The pair started dating in at least 2016, when they made it official. But Diab, who hosts radio show Nessa on Air  a hip-hop show on New York City's Hot 97 , wants everyone to know it's more serious now.

"I'm not Colin's girlfriend, or roommate or whatever. I'm his wife." She also ripped those who mislabeled the pair's relationship.
