Paul George 'totally fine' being Clippers' No. 2 behind Kawhi Leonard

LOS ANGELES -- Paul George set aside any ego and made it clear that Kawhi Leonard is the LA Clippers' No. 1 option and that he is the second star in the All-Star duo's pecking order.As they enter their fourth season together with championship expectations, George was asked if there are any past championship wing tandems that he and Leonard can use as a potential blueprint."Yeah, look at the [ Miami Heat] wing-wing DWade [Dwyane Wade] and LeBron [James]," George said Sunday following the Clippers' 119-117 preseason loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves at Crypto.com Arena. "I think it just comes down to -- listen, Kawhi is the No. 1. And I am totally fine with that. I think I try to complement him with being able to take the load off of him."Everybody says, 'Kawhi [and] you are 1 and 1, [or] 1A, 1B.' I'll publicly say, I'm the 2. Kawhi's the 1, I'm the 2. So that part we nipped in the bud. Like there's no ego when it...

Padres eliminate Mets, secure NLDS date with rival Dodgers

NEW YORK -- San Diego Padres starter Joe Musgrove knew Sunday was the biggest start of his life and felt sick to his stomach all day.The stakes were high. A winner-takes-all playoff finale pitching in front of a hostile New York City crowd at Citi Field. San Diego needed a strong start from the righty after the team struggled in Game 2 against the New York Mets.As Musgrove contemplated the five-year, $100 million contract the Padres rewarded him with in August, he felt the weight of his team's season falling onto his shoulders.But as first pitch ticked closer and Musgrove warmed up in the Citi Field bullpen, he pulled aside Padres catcher Austin Nola to talk about the night ahead of them."I'm going to have the best start of my life," Musgrove told Nola.His premonition came true, as Musgrove went seven innings, allowing just one hit and one walk and striking out five batters, propelling the Padres to a 6-0 victory and punching a ticket to the...

Pittsburgh Steelers QB Kenny Pickett calls out low hit after loss: 'Felt like he went after my knee'

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Searching for somewhere to throw the ball late in the fourth quarter during Sunday's 38-3 loss, Pittsburgh Steelersquarterback Kenny Pickett scrambled toward the sideline at Highmark Stadium with Buffalo Bills defender Shaq Lawson hot in pursuit.As the rookie quarterback got rid of the ball, Lawson dove low, tackling Pickett below his waist to bring him to the ground. Pickett took exception to the hit and shoved the defensive end as he picked himself up off the turf.Pickett didn't stop there, and he briefly continued to go after Lawson until left tackle Chukwuma Okorafor and the rest of the Steelers' offensive linemen stepped in to break up the scuffle."From my opinion, I felt like he went after my knee after I threw it," Pickett said. "That's it. You know, tempers flare. I don't care, I'm gonna keep playing to the last play of the game. That was it. All good with me."Pickett was assessed a penalty for...

Sean McVay on Rams' struggles: Matthew Stafford 'needs help'

INGLEWOOD, Calif. -- After the Los Angeles Rams' offense struggled for the second game in a row and the team lost their second straight to fall to 2-3 on the season, head coach Sean McVay said his quarterback needs help."I love Matthew Stafford," McVay said after a 22-10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. "He is competing and doing everything in his power for this team. He needs some help. We've got to be able to help him."The Rams have scored just one touchdown in their last nine quarters, a 75-yard catch and run from Stafford to wide receiver Cooper Kupp in the second quarter of Sunday's game.Stafford is playing behind an offensive line that has dealt with injury after injury this season. Center Jeremiah Kolone, who started in place of an injured Coleman Shelton, who was starting in place of an injured Brian Allen, was the Rams' ninth different offensive lineman to start a game this season.

NEW YORK -- Starter Joe Musgrove dominated the New York Mets, who mustered one hit out of the entire evening, as the San Diego Padres cruised to a 6-0 victory in Game 3 of the National League Wild Card Series on Sunday, punching a ticket to the NL Division Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers.San Diego took Game 1 of the series against New York, teeing off against Max Scherzer to the tune of four homers in the 7-1 win, but struggled to muster much of an attack in Game 2 against Jacob deGrom, who allowed only two runs in six innings in a 7-3 loss.After a Game 2 in which the Mets' offense teed off on Padres pitching, San Diego needed Musgrove to come through during the biggest start of his career. Throughout the evening, Musgrove relied on his fastball, cutter, curveball and slider to keep complete dominance on the Mets' lineup.

Falcons lineman 'unnecessarily' threw Tom Brady to ground, ref says

TAMPA, Fla. -- Referee Jerome Boger said Atlanta Falcons defensive lineman Grady Jarrett"unnecessarily" threw Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Bradyto the ground as part of his explanation for the roughing the passer call on a key third down late in the Bucs' win Sunday.The Falcons were down by six with 3 minutes, 3 seconds to play when they appeared to stop the Buccaneers at midfield on Jarrett's third-down sack of Brady, but Boger threw a flag, allowing the drive to continue and Tampa Bay to run out the clock in its 21-15 win.Jarrett had wrapped Brady up and then rolled to the ground, bringing the quarterback along with him."What I had was the defender grabbed the quarterback while he was still in the pocket and unnecessarily throwing him to the ground," Boger said in a postgame pool report. "That is what I was making my decision based on."Boger said, "No, not necessarily," when asked whether he was instructed to watch for...

LONDON -- Aaron Rodgers heard the talk even before someone relayed what Green Bay Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander said in the locker room after Sunday's upset loss to the New York Giants.And he didn't like it.Alexander, the Pro Bowl cornerback, said he wasn't worried about the defense despite its role in the second-half meltdown that led to Green Bay's 27-22 loss in front of a pro-Packers crowd at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. At least not yet."I ain't worried, but if we lose next week, then I'll be worried," Alexander said, referring to next Sunday's game against the New York Jets at Lambeau Field.

Dolphins' Teddy Bridgewater out, in protocol after hard hit

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater is in the concussion protocol and was ruled out of Miami's 40-17 loss to the New York Jets after leaving the game in the first quarter.Bridgewater was put into the protocol after the booth ATC spotter ruled him a "no-go" after he took a hit on the Dolphins' opening offensive drive, in compliance with the NFL's amended concussion protocol.

The New York Giants weren't supposed to have a chance, especially down 14 points in the first half to the Green Bay Packers.

Max Verstappen wins F1 title with four races to spare

Max Verstappen capped a sublime Formula One season with a similar performance at the Japanese Grand Prix to clinch his second straight championship.Verstappen's win gave him a place in the record books as he secured one of F1's most dominant championship wins.Only Michael Schumacher (2001 and 2004) and Sebastian Vettel (2011) have won a championship with four races still left to run.Verstappen led the Suzuka race from start to finish but did not realize he had won the championship after taking the checkered flag."Yeah, it's really a crazy feeling of course, because I didn't expect when I crossed the line," Verstappen said after the race."You could see it slowly happening. It's incredible that we did win it here."The confusion stemmed from how many points would be awarded in a race that did not complete full distance.F1's rules state that limited points are awarded when a race is red-flagged and cannot continue. Although the Suzuka race was red-flagged, it continued...

A surprised Sanders raised his hands in disbelief before walking away alongside his security detail.Robinson later explained that Sanders had made disrespectful comments in the week leading up to the game.

New York Mets stay alive behind Jacob deGrom, force Game 3

NEW YORK -- Mets ace Jacob deGrom couldn't help but ponder his future on Saturday night. With free agency looming and the San Diego Padres taking Game 1 of the National League Wild Card Series, deGrom said he went into his start in Game 2 knowing that if he didn't pitch well, it could be the last time he pitched at Citi Field as a Met."That went into my mind, but the hope was that we would win a baseball game and continue to keep playing," deGrom said.He came through, going six innings and allowing five hits and two runs on two walks with eight strikeouts in a 7-3 Mets victory. The win guaranteed that deGrom would have at least one more day to put on a Mets uniform, on Sunday night when the Padres and Mets will play Game 3.DeGrom set the tone early, starting off the game throwing 12 pitches over 99 mph and seven over 100 mph. He retired the top of Padres' lineup in order, striking out slugger Juan Soto and Manny Machado swinging....

The Phillies, he told them, would not allow for a decisive Game 3."We're not losing," he continued to say as he went around the clubhouse.Then he delivered.Harper homered off a first-pitch Miles Mikolas curveball to lead off the second inning, silencing a sold-out crowd and providing all the run support a dominant Aaron Nola would need. The Phillies, who fired their manager 51 games into the season and finished third in their division, defeated the Cardinals 2-0 and advanced to a National League Division Series showdown against the Atlanta Braves."It's...

T.J. Watt's return to Steelers delayed due to knee surgery, sources say

T.J. Watt recently underwent arthroscopic knee surgery that is expected to delay his return to the Pittsburgh Steelers, sources told ESPN.Watt, who already was recovering from a torn pectoral muscle, had the knee surgery to clean up a preseason injury that lingered into the regular season, according to sources. The star pass-rusher initially was expected to miss six weeks because of the pectoral injury suffered in Pittsburgh's season opener, setting up a potential return Oct. 30 against the Eagles.But the knee surgery likely will push back Watt's return by at least another week or two, according to sources, meaning the reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year now might not be back until after the Steelers' bye in Week 9. Pittsburgh hosts the Saints in Week 10 before a Week 11 road game against the Colts on Monday Night Football.The Steelers will not rush Watt back and will be diligent in monitoring how both his knee and pectoral muscle respond....

Following review of the handling of Tua Tagovailoa's injury, NFL, NFLPA agree 'the outcome in this case is not what was intended'

The NFL and NFL Players Association released a joint statement Saturday finalizing their review of the application of the league's concussion protocol following Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's apparent head injury Sept. 25, implementing an amendment to said protocol.The statement concluded that although the step-by-step process of the concussion protocol was followed, "the outcome in this case was not what was intended when the Protocol was drafted."Tagovailoa appeared to sustain a head injury during the Dolphins' game against the Buffalo Bills on Sept. 25 when he hit his head on the ground and then stumbled while attempting to return to the huddle. The stumble was considered a display of gross motor instability, which is one of the protocol's "no-go" symptoms that requires a player be removed from a game without the possibility to return.He was immediately taken to the locker room for a concussion evaluation but informed both the team's...

Commanders activate RB Brian Robinson for game vs. Titans

ASHBURN, Va. -- Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson has been placed on the 53-man roster and will play vs. the Tennessee Titanson Sunday, six weeks after being shot twice in his right leg.Robinson, who had been placed on the non-football injury list, was cleared to practice Wednesday. There had been optimism all week about Robinson's chances of playing, especially after his right knee responded well after practicing each day.It's uncertain how much he'll play and Washington does have other effective running backs in Antonio Gibson and J.D. McKissic. Gibson has been the Commanders' primary back for the past two seasons and has rushed for 173 yards this year, while averaging only 3.3 yards per carry. McKissic is their third-down back.Washington likes Robinson as a primary between-the-tackles runner and could pair him in packages with either Gibson or McKissic, both of whom are pass-catching threats."You've got a good group...

Padres romp by Mets as Max Scherzer disappoints in wild-card start

NEW YORK -- The dreams of Mets fans were supposed to come true on Friday night. When Max Scherzer signed a three-year, $130 million contract with New York, the wild-card series opener was the type of game Mets fans imagined the future Hall of Famer would dominate, an important moment setting the tone for a team ahead of a playoff run.Instead, those fantasies were shattered as Scherzer unraveled in his start against the San Diego Padres, allowing seven earned runs on seven hits -- including giving up a career-high four home runs -- while striking out just four batters in 4⅔ innings in a 7-1loss by New York.Hours after Scherzer left the Citi Field mound, the moments of struggle played on a loop in his head."This is going to be a late night for me," Scherzer said.The damage started in the first inning when Padres designated hitter Josh Bell slugged a 419-foot opposite-field home run that scored Jurickson Profar.

Paul Westphal couldn't contain his excitement as he headed back into the Kings' locker room after the game. "They should've gone up by 40," the veteran coach exclaimed.The sense of joy in his voice was palpable.Just down the hall, the misery coming from the Bulls locker room was just as present. Joakim Noah sat in front of his locker and leaned back in his chair with his eyes closed. He couldn't believe that his team had just blown a 35-point lead.In truth, nobody in the United Center could. Derrick Rose when asked if something like this has ever happened in his career: "Never. But I guess there's a first time for everything. Just nonchalant attitude, I guess. But we'll be fine." Tyreke Evans on the game as a whole: "Wow, that's all I can say. Wow. That was crazy. I've never been a part of a team that came back like that."

Phillies stun Cardinals with wild 9th-inning rally to open wild card

ST. LOUIS -- Jean Segura'scareer spanned 11 seasons and 1,328 games before he finally reached the postseason, the longest active streak in the major leagues. On the morning of his first playoff game, the Philadelphia Phillies' second baseman barely slept. He awoke at 7 a.m. "with adrenaline in my body." Friday wore on, and that edge never left."I was mentally focused on every play, every pitch," Segura said. "I came prepared today to play a game, and to be able to be here -- I just thank God that everything was on my side."With the Phillies down a run, the bases loaded, one out in the top of the ninth and the St. Louis Cardinals scrambling to replace their wounded closer, Segura snuck a grounder past a slightly drawn-in infield, plating two runs and propelling the Phillies to an improbable 6-3 win in the opening game of their best-of-three wild-card series, putting them on the cusp of advancing into the National League Division Series.The...

Villanova star freshman Cam Whitmore, a projected top-10 NBA draft pick, will undergo surgery next week on his right thumb after injuring it in practice on Wednesday, the school announced Friday.Whitmore will be reevaluated in early November."We're disappointed for Cam," Villanova first-year coach Kyle Neptune said. "Throughout the preseason he's worked hard to learn our concepts and what it takes to be effective in the Big East. This is a temporary setback, though, and we know Cam will approach his rehab with a great attitude."Whitmore, a 6-foot-7 small forward from Archbishop Spalding (Maryland), was ranked No. 21 in the ESPN 100 for the 2022 class.

Jose Ramirez's 2-run homer sends Guardians past Rays in AL opener

CLEVELAND -- When the Cleveland Guardians needed a response, after Tampa Bay took a 1-0 lead in Game 1 of their AL Wild Card Series on Friday, it came as no surprise that All-Star third baseman Jose Ramirez would be the guy to come through. He's done it all year."He's inevitable," winning pitcher Shane Bieber said after the Guardians' 2-1 win. "To do it right away, that was huge. I know for me personally, any pitcher, will tell you that."Ramirez hit an 88 mph changeup for a two-run home run in the bottom of the sixth not long after Jose Siri had given the Rays the lead in the top of the inning. Response accomplished."Yeah, that [responding] came through my mind, but we have a really good team, so I knew we were capable to come back," Ramirez said through the team interpreter. "When it came off the bat I felt it was a homer, but with this weather you never know, and when I saw the center fielder trying to get to the wall, I was kind of concerned...
