Former Michigan State football defensive end transferring to UNLV
The saga of Tunmise Adeleye and the transfer portal continues. On Tuesday, the former Michigan State football defensive end committed to his fourth school in four years when it was revealed that he will be transferring to UNLV.
Adeleye started his career at Texas A&M before transferring to MSU in 2023. He only spent one season with the Spartans before electing to transfer to Texas State. Now, Adeleye has found yet another landing spot in Las Vegas.
Adeleye has 21 career tackles and three total sacks to go along with a forced fumble. He was ranked a 3-star transfer this year and was 247Sports' No. 99 ranked defensive lineman in the portal.
Adeleye was a 4-star recruit out of high school, where he was the No. 85 ranked player in the 2021 class.

Wisconsin football omitted from preseason AP Poll
The first AP Poll for the 2025 season was released on Monday. The preseason ranking marks the first time the outlet has published a hierarchy since Jan. 20, after the Ohio State Buckeyes defeated the Notre Dame Fighting Irish in the 2025 College Football Playoff title game. The Texas Longhorns, who fell to the Buckeyes on Jan. 10 in the Cotton Bowl Classic, hold the No. 1 position in the poll ahead of the 2025 slate. The Penn State Nittany Lions (No. 2), Ohio State (No. 3), Oregon Ducks (No. 7), Illinois Fighting Illini (No. 12), Michigan Wolverines (No. 14) and Indiana Hoosiers (No. 20) comprised the Big Ten talent featured on the poll's first installation of the season. The Nebraska Cornhuskers also received 23 votes, while the Iowa Hawkeyes reeled in five votes. Wisconsin, meanwhile, did not receive a single vote in Aug. 11's installation. UW finished the 2024 campaign with a 5-7 mark, which included a five-game losing streak to wrap the season. The Badgers' lackluster performance also resulted in the program's first season missing out on a bowl game in over 20 years. Most notably, Luke Fickell's crew is slated to line up across from six AP top 25 ranked programs throughout the 2025 season. With hopes of avenging its 42-10 Week 3 loss in 2024, Wisconsin will take on the No. 8-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide on Sept. 13 in Tuscaloosa. UW will then venture to Ann Arbor for a tilt against the Wolverines on Oct. 4 before back-to-back contests against the Buckeyes in Madison and Ducks in Eugene on Oct. 18 and Oct. 25, respectively. A road bout vs. the Hoosiers, another College Football Playoff team from 2024, awaits on Nov. 15 prior to a Nov. 22 clash against Illinois at Camp Randall. While talking heads across the country acknowledged how difficult UW's 2025 gauntlet was throughout the offseason, Monday's AP Poll reaffirms that notion. Outside of the Badgers' first two games against Miami (Ohio) and Middle Tennessee, UW will need to scratch and claw for the remainder of the season with first year offensive coordinator Jeff Grimes and quarterback Billy Edwards Jr. at the helm.

Madden NFL 26 Top DL ratings revealed — where does Steelers' Cam Heyward rank?
EA just dropped the top-10 player ratings at each position for Madden NFL 26 — and despite being arguably the best defensive lineman in football last season, Steelers DT Cameron Heyward finds himself outside the top 3. Here are the newly released Madden NFL 26 player ratings for the top-10 defensive linemen — with Heyward earning a respectable rating but an underwhelming placement behind three others. Chiefs, Chris Jones — 97 Overall Giants, Dexter Lawrence II — 97 Overall Panthers, Derrick Brown — 95 Overall Steelers, Cameron Heyward — 94 Overall Buccaneers, Vita Vea — 93 Overall Ravens, Nnamdi Madubuike — 93 Overall Titans, Jeffery Simmons — 92 Overall Jets, Quinnen Williams — 91 Overall Eagles, Jalen Carter — 90 Overall Colts, DeForest Buckner — 88 Overall Last season, Heyward put together a career performance at 35 years old — producing 71 combined tackles, 12 tackles for loss, 20 QB hits, eight sacks, and a league-leading 10 batted passes, earning a First-Team All-Pro selection in the process. Arguably the best Steelers defender in 2024, Heyward will look to make an even bigger statement this season — one that will earn him the top spot in the Madden NFL 26 ratings.

Adam Schefter shares troublesome update on Steelers' Cam Heyward contract talks
Steelers fans received some bad news just days before the preseason opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars — as DT Cameron Heyward is reportedly seeking a restructured deal, but talks haven't gone smoothly. ESPN's Adam Schefter broke the news on Thursday, claiming Heyward hasn't fully practiced at training camp as he looks for a restructured deal — with his sources revealing that talks have stalled. "With little fanfare, Steelers four-time All-Pro defensive tackle Cameron Heyward hasn't fully participated in practice yet this summer as he awaits a restructured contract that has not gotten done, per sources," Schefter wrote on X. "Heyward is scheduled to make $14.75 million this season, with $13.45 million of that already having been paid as a roster bonus in March. Heyward is seeking a raise in a defensive market that has experienced a reset this offseason. Heyward and the Steelers have addressed this privately, but have not made any progress on any reworked deal, per sources." Heyward signed a three-year, $45 million extension in September 2024 — but it appears the 36-year old veteran looking for another payday after arguably one of the best seasons of his career last year. This situation is worth monitoring with nearly 30 days until the Steelers' regular season opener — and we at Steelers Wire will keep you updated as more information becomes available.
