Andrew Berry is drawing a hard line in Cleveland. The Browns GM made clear he never seriously entertained the Myles Garrett trade with the Rams until Los Angeles put Jared Verse on the table. That inclusion changed everything, and it tells you exactly how much leverage Cleveland had in those negotiations.
Across the Atlantic, a significant managerial shakeup is underway. Fulham have confirmed Marco Silva will not be extending his contract at Craven Cottage, ending a five-year run that genuinely transformed the club's standing in the Premier League. Silva is now closing in on a return to Portugal, with Benfica the expected destination.
And in Boston, Brad Stevens has a summer that's anything but quiet. The Celtics president is navigating two pressure points simultaneously — rebuilding a roster capable of competing with Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum still in their prime, while also keeping the franchise from drowning in luxury tax penalties. The margin for error is razor thin and the clock is ticking.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
