Jamal Adams is done for the year. The veteran safety suffered a season-ending right knee injury during the Minnesota Vikings' thirteen to ten preseason win over the New York Giants on Saturday. Adams had been carving out a hybrid safety-linebacker role and was firmly on track to make the fifty-three man roster, but at thirty years old, his two thousand twenty six campaign is over before it began.
Shifting to the diamond, and the San Francisco Giants handed out ten walks in a chaotic loss to the Colorado Rockies at Oracle Park. Rafael Devers did his part, launching a three-run Splash Hit, but sloppy pitching and a wild pitch that catcher Drew Cavanaugh simply couldn't locate cost San Francisco the game. You cannot give a team that many free passes and expect to win.
And in golf, Florida State's Jack Whaley made history at Merion Golf Club in Pennsylvania, claiming the one hundred twenty sixth U S Amateur Championship with a four and three victory over Stanford's Jay Leng Junior. Whaley is the first Seminole ever to hoist the Havemeyer Trophy and just the third Englishman in history to win the title. Remarkable performance under tough conditions.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
