Maya Lindstrom The connection to Vrabel could help Jones adjust fast to the new system.

Under Bari Weiss and Nick Bilton, the program pursues a new approach while leaning on veteran hosts and a slate of new contributors—Ross Douthat, Norah O'Donnell, Sebastian Junger, Gianna Toboni, Trevor Phillips, and Ariel Levy—to modernize coverage.

Tom Gallagher Firing Scott Pelley and the others feels like a risky move just to chase a younger audience.

The veteran winger—who won the Premier League with Chelsea and five Serie A titles with Juventus—is touted as one of the league's most high-profile signings and aims to lead Millonarios in a new project for the club and country.

Chris Dalton At 38 signing him through 2027 shows the club has real plans, and his trophy record gives them a leader they lacked before.

Harrison Smith's Week 1 Status Unclear Against Packers — Sep 9, 2026Harrison Smith returned to the Vikings for his 15th season and is expected to play a prominent role on a defense that aims to contend for the playoffs, with coaches emphasizing plans to balance his veteran leadership with opportunities for younger players. Despite being 37 and having limited recent practice, Vikings officials say he’s in good shape and will be integrated based on his health and the team’s week-to-week needs against the Packers.

Maya Lindstrom It's smart to let the younger guys get reps against the Packers instead of forcing Smith into a big role right away.

The move is driven by a cap crunch from Leo Carlsson’s $18 million offer sheet and the need to re-sign Cutter Gauthier, with interest in Kreider from around the league.

Maya Lindstrom Bet some East Coast team grabs him quick once he's on waivers and he gets the fresh start he wants.
