Marco Wilson injury: Bengals defensive back hurt during training camp, could miss weeks
Cincinnati Bengals defensive back Marco Wilson suffered an apparent injury during training camp near Paycor Stadium. Bengals head coach Zac Taylor didn't provide details about Wilson's injury after Sunday's practice, but did designate Wilson as "week to week" because of it. During the Bengals' Week 16 win against Cleveland in 2024, head coach Zac Taylor didn't appear to be happy with officials after Wilson was flagged for defensive pass interference for his coverage of Browns receiver Jerry Jeudy during the third quarter. The Bengals claimed Wilson off waivers in November 2024. Wilson, a fourth-round pick out of Florida in the 2021 NFL draft, also has played for the New England Patriots and the Arizona Cardinals.

Tennessee sophomore Boo Carter's Rocky Top return '50/50' amid fall camp uncertainty
The Tennessee Volunteers are just days away from kicking off fall camp as they prepare for their season opener against Syracuse. However, an unfortunate situation has overshadowed the team's preseason buzz — and it doesn't involve players gearing up for the field. Sophomore Boo Carter has missed numerous team activities, and it's not sitting well within the program. 'Tennessee sophomore defensive back Boo Carter is expected to be one of the Volunteers' best players in 2025 on defense, offense and special teams, but his status with the team is unclear as we inch closer to August. Carter has missed 'numerous' team activities and was even confronted by team leaders because of his absences, according to the Knoxville News Sentinel,' CBS Sports' Jordan Dajani wrote. Adding to the drama, Carter has also blindsided his former agent. Apparently, the agent didn't even know he'd been replaced, as Carter and his mother have been unresponsive regarding the matter. 'I did represent Boo. However, I'm not sure I still do," Isaac Conner wrote in a text message to CBS Sports. "He has been non responsive and so has his mother. They posted something about Omar Cooper representing him and advising him now." Head coach Josh Heupel has made it clear that no individual is bigger than the Power T — not even himself — and he reportedly wouldn't hesitate to move on from Carter if necessary. If Carter is dismissed from the program, he's already been linked to a Big 12 school. For now, the outcome remains uncertain. 'We'll see how this situation plays out. For now, it feels like it's 50/50 on whether Carter plays for the Volunteers this fall,' A to Z Sports' Zach Ragan wrote. Follow The Sporting News on WhatsApp There's no denying that Carter is a vital part of Tennessee's roster, but Heupel isn't known for compromising team standards. Fall camp begins July 30, and Heupel is expected to meet with the media beforehand to address lingering questions. As it stands, Carter's future with the program is completely up in the air.

Lookman, Jashari, Ndoye and more: today's transfer market preview 🤑
Another week of the transfer market opens, the one that will take us into the key month for transfers, the month of August. It's the peak moment of concentration for sports directors and major clubs, busy assembling the most competitive squads possible. What are the main negotiations to watch out for that could heat up and come to fruition in the coming days? ⚔️ Jashari, how long will the stalemate last? The saga surrounding young Ardon Jashari from Bruges, a transfer target for Milan, continues to dominate. The Rossoneri have a contractual agreement with the player and have presented the Belgian club with an offer of 33.5 million plus 5 in bonuses upon reaching certain objectives. Despite the Swiss player's desire to join the Rossoneri and the generous offer on the table, Bruges does not seem willing to give in and continues to demand 40 million for the player's card. Igli Tare's response was firm, emphasizing the good relations between the two clubs but also stating that they do not intend to go beyond their offer. The player was not on the list for Bruges' debut match in the Belgian championship, and the Rossoneri want to find a way to close the deal as soon as possible to allow the Swiss player to train with his new teammates. In short, the negotiation is at a standstill but still alive: could it unlock in the coming hours? 🤔 Ndoye, a pause for reflection? There is still uncertainty about Dan Ndoye's situation at Bologna: Napoli currently has the highest offer, with a proposal for a loan with an obligation to buy set at 40 million, which does not fully convince the Rossoblù. The Neapolitans are not willing to go further, but from Bologna, a new bid from Nottingham Forest, Napoli's main competitor, is expected at any moment, with whom the player already has an agreement. A situation that could further complicate if Manchester United were to join the race for the player: for this reason, Bologna is holding firm, trying to maximize their gain. In short, a situation definitely worth keeping an eye on and ready to heat up. 👀 Inter makes a new bid for Lookman Meanwhile, Inter continues to press for Ademola Lookman from Atalanta. According to Gazzetta, the Milanese club is ready with a new offer, significantly changing the terms: from a loan with an obligation to buy to an immediate permanent transfer. A requirement that could soften Atalanta's stance (asking for 50 million) and, in Marotta's hopes, make the offer of around 43 million in fixed parts acceptable, not counting bonuses, possibly spread over several years. In short, a Koopmeiners-like operation, in a sense. Inter has a total agreement with the player (4.5 million net per season rising to 5 over the next five years) but also demands an acceleration in negotiations to close as soon as possible. In short, the ball is now in Atalanta's court: will Marotta's new bid be enough? 🔜 Como, will Morata's deal be unlocked? In the last hours of Sunday, the transfer of Alvaro Morata to Como was back in discussion. The topic was touched upon by the Lariani president Mirwan Suwarso in interviews before the friendly against Ajax: "All that's missing is for him to be here. We have an agreement with Milan and the player. Galatasaray and Milan need to talk, we've done what we had to do." A situation that, however, could be close to unlocking, according to reports from Gianluca Di Marzio in the evening: Como is waiting for Milan to reach an agreement with the Turks to withdraw the Spaniard from the loan early. An agreement that is closer with the definition of Victor Osimhen's arrival in Istanbul, now at the signing stage, and which could therefore accelerate definitively in the coming hours. 💥 Xavi Simons, Chelsea is serious The situation of Xavi Simons from Leipzig is also heating up. Chelsea is swooping in on the Dutch talent, ready to put 70 million euros on the table to secure him. Contacts have already been initiated with PSG, which owns the player's card, and with Leipzig to define the exit modalities from the loan. Chelsea would offer the player a very long-term contract (2032 or 2033) and a role as vice-Cole Palmer, for what is one of the most interesting European talents. An operation made possible also by the imminent sale of Joao Felix to Al Nassr. A move that the Londoners could already finalize in the coming hours.
