Colin Cowherd is going on record with a bold one — he believes Caleb Williams takes MVP honors in two thousand twenty six, and the Chicago Bears end a nearly fifty-year drought at the top of the league. Cowherd also projects a pair of last season's playoff teams falling out of the picture entirely, so the NFL offseason debate is officially heating up.
Across the Atlantic, Wales's Angharad Evans is having a championship to remember in Paris. The twenty-three-year-old already had gold in the one hundred meter breaststroke, and she went right back to the wall to claim silver in the two hundred, finishing behind world record holder Evgeniia Chikunova with Ireland's Mona McSharry rounding out the podium. Two medals, one meet — Evans is making her mark on European swimming.
And in Boston, the Red Sox are facing a quiet but real concern behind the plate. Willson Contreras has been carrying a heavy workload deep into the season, and the question now is whether the front office gets ahead of the wear before it becomes something more serious. With the finish line in sight, managing him carefully could matter a great deal down the stretch.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
