You're tuned in to Sports Desk, let's get right to it.
Josh Allen is standing in the fire for Buffalo's new alternate uniforms, and he's not backing down. The Bills quarterback told critics flat out to stop hating, saying the franchise has to move forward and do something new. The unis drew heavy backlash online, but Allen's making clear he's riding with the look regardless of public opinion.
Shifting to the hardwood, the Philadelphia seventy-sixers are being slept on heading into next season, and that is genuinely hard to believe. This is a roster that now features LeBron James, Jaylen Brown, Joel Embiid, and Tyrese Maxey all sharing the same locker room. Yet at least one former NBA champion has the Magic and others finishing ahead of Philly in the East. Bold take. Very bold take.
And down in Cincinnati, Bengals training camp got physical Wednesday when Ja'Marr Chase ended up at the center of a full-on scuffle, helmet flying and all. These kinds of battles happen in camp, but when your franchise receiver is launching equipment, you pay attention. The Bengals will want to channel that intensity toward the regular season before someone gets hurt.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
