***Top Sports Headlines***
>>NFL Announces 2026 Pro Bowl Rosters
(Undated) — The 2026 NFL Pro Bowl rosters have been released. The league announced selections for each position on social media, with teams confirming their own players. The Ravens, Broncos, 49ers, and Seahawks each had the most Pro Bowlers, with six players. The Jets, Vikings, and Saints did not have any players earn the honor. 49ers offensive tackle Trent Williams has the most Pro Bowl selections of any player, with this year becoming the 12th of his career.
>>Three Bears Players Make Pro Bowl
(Lake Forest, IL) — A trio of Chicago Bears players are earning some recognition for their strong play this season. Center Drew Dalman, guard Joe Thuney, and safety Kevin Byard were all named to the Pro Bowl yesterday. Dalman is heading to his first career Pro Bowl. Meanwhile, Thuney is going to the Pro Bowl for the fourth season in a row, and Byard is heading to his third Pro Bowl. The Bears take on the 49ers this Sunday.
>>Two Colts Players Make Pro Bowl
(Indianapolis, IN) — A pair of Colts players are earning some league-wide recognition. Running back Jonathan Taylor and guard Quenton Nelson were both named to the Pro Bowl yesterday. Nelson has now made eight straight Pro Bowls. Taylor is going to the Pro Bowl for the third time in his career after gaining 1,840 yards from scrimmage and scoring 19 total touchdowns in the first 15 games of this season.
>>Report: 49ers TE Kittle Has Mid To Low Ankle Sprain
(Santa Clara, CA) — The 49ers have been handed another blow in the injury department. ESPN is reporting that San Francisco tight end George Kittle is dealing with a mid to low ankle sprain. Kittle sustained the injury to his left ankle early in Monday’s win over the Indianapolis Colts by what he perceived as a hip drop tackle. He suggested postgame that he had avoided a high ankle sprain, which would have likely sidelined him for at least the next two weeks.
>>Jets’ Justin Fields Lands On Injured Reserve
(East Rutherford, NJ) — The Jets are shutting down their former starting quarterback. Justin Fields was placed on injured reserve on Tuesday. He was dealing with knee soreness and missed the last three games as a result. The 26-year-old was benched for Tyrod Taylor last month and went just 2-and-7 as a starter. Undrafted rookie Brady Cook will finish the season for New York, which currently holds the fourth pick in April’s draft.
>>Browns’ Deshaun Watson Won’t Return This Season
(Cleveland, OH) — The Browns are playing it slow with their franchise quarterback. Head coach Kevin Stefanski told the media on Tuesday that Deshaun Watson won’t be activated from the physically unable to perform list. The QB will officially miss the entire season as he continues to recover from Achilles surgery after he re-tore it. The 30-year-old has one year left on a five-year, 230-million dollar, fully-guaranteed contract.
>>Report: Pirates Sign Ryan O’Hearn
(Pittsburgh, PA) — The Pirates are making a relative splash in free agency. ESPN reports the team signed Ryan O’Hearn to a two-year deal worth 29-million dollars. It’s the first multi-year deal the Bucs have given to a free agent since 2016. O’Hearn was named an All-Star last season after hitting .281 with 17 homers between the Orioles and Padres.
>>Phillies’ Bryce Harper Joins Team USA For WBC
(Philadelphia, PA) — Team USA is recruiting a superstar ahead of the World Baseball Classic. Bryce Harper announced his commitment to the Stars and Stripes on Tuesday. The Phillies’ slugger is expected to play first base and joins teammate Kyle Schwarber, who is in the designated hitter slot. The tournament begins on March 5th with games taking place in Houston, Miami, Tokyo and Puerto Rico.
>>College Bowl Recap
(Undated) — College football’s bowl season continued with three games on Tuesday. The day began with Louisville beating Toledo 27-22 in the Boca Raton Bowl. Western Kentucky topped Southern Miss 27-16 in the New Orleans Bowl. In the nightcap, Ohio beat UNLV 17-10 in the Frisco Bowl. The action will continue tonight when Cal and Hawaii face off in the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl.
>>Royals Facing Stadium Decision With Chiefs Moving To Kansas
(Kansas City, MO) — The Royals are faced with a tough decision regarding their future home following the Chiefs’ decision to move across the state line to Kansas. Team owner John Sherman has long expressed a desire to build a downtown ballpark, but those plans have been stagnant due to politics and community backlash. The MLB team will now need to decide whether to continue a pursuit of a downtown stadium, build a new stadium elsewhere on the Missouri side of the state divide, or follow the Chiefs to the Kansas side of the border.
>>Cubs Sign RP Webb
(Chicago, IL) — The Chicago Cubs are bolstering their bullpen. The team signed reliever Jacob Webb to a one-year deal yesterday. Webb’s contract includes a team option for 2027. The 32-year-old went 5-and-4 with one save and a 3.00 ERA in 55 appearances with the Rangers during the 2025 campaign.
>>White Sox Ink Newcomb
(Chicago, IL) — The Chicago White Sox have added to their pitching staff. The Southsiders inked left-handed pitcher Sean Newcomb to a one-year deal worth four-and-a-half million dollars yesterday. Newcomb played with both the Red Sox and the Athletics last season. He went 2-and-5 with two saves and a 2.73 ERA in 48 games.
