Trent Brown agrees to terms with Texans
Agent Drew Rosenhaus told reporters that his client Trent Brown has agreed to a one-year deal with Houston. The deal is worth up to $3 million.
The Texans reached a deal with former Jaguar and Viking Cam Robinson earlier this week in a move that should fill the left tackle hole they opened by trading Laremy Tunsil to the Commanders.
Brown could join Blake Fisher in the mix for the starting job at right tackle or serve as a swing tackle this year. He played three games for the Bengals before tearing his patellar tendon last season. He had previous runs as a starter for the Patriots, Raiders, and 49ers with some of his time in New England coming at the same time that Texans offensive coordinator Nick Caley was on the Patriots staff.

Former Rockets guard John Wall announces retirement from NBA
John Wall, a five-time NBA All-Star and a member of the Houston Rockets for multiple years, has retired from basketball. The former point guard made the announcement Tuesday via his social media accounts. 'Today, I'm stepping off the court but not away from the game,' Wall said in a video posted to his Instagram and X accounts. 'Basketball will always be in my life. As new opportunities present themselves, I feel now is the time to walk confidently into my next chapter.' Wall was selected by Washington at No. 1 overall in the first round of the 2010 NBA draft. All five of his All-Star appearances came with the Wizards. In 40 games with the Rockets during the 2020-21 season, Wall averaged a team-high 20.6 points (40.4% FG, 31.7% on 3-pointers) and 6.9 assists per game. He was acquired by the Rockets in December 2020 as part of a blockbuster trade sending Russell Westbrook to Washington. Wall remained on the roster during Houston's subsequent 2021-22 season but did not play, with the then-rebuilding Rockets prioritizing guard repetitions for younger options — namely, Kevin Porter Jr. and Jalen Green. Wall and the Rockets then reached a contract buyout agreement in the 2022 offseason. The Kentucky product went on to play as a reserve with the Los Angeles Clippers in the 2022-23 season, and that proved to be his final NBA campaign. In the 2024-25 season, Wall began doing on-camera work as an NBA analyst and broadcaster, and Tuesday's announcement suggests that could remain a possibility moving forward.

Former Rockets guard John Wall announces retirement from NBA
John Wall, once the starter at point guard when Houston began its recent rebuild in the 2020-21 season, has officially retired from the NBA.

Patriots Insider Shuts Down Possibility Of Major Addition Before Week 1
After two preseason games, the Patriots have as much positive momentum as anybody. The team won both of its preseason games so far and has enjoyed breakout performances from several players this summer. The team made several impact additions this summer, and adding Mike Vrabel as the head coach could be the biggest move of all. As a result, BetMGM has the team's win total at 8.5 games, which is more than double the number of games the team won last year. Looking at this roster, it isn't hard to see why expectations are so high. Drake Maye impressed as a rookie and should only get better in his sophomore season. The team looks to have a two-headed monster at running back with Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson, and the wide receiver room is loaded with talent. On defense, the team could have one of the best corner tandems in the league with Christian Gonzalez and Carlton Davis II. Milton Williams was added to the defensive line as well, and paired with Christian Barmore, gives the team a fearsome front. It makes sense then that the team reportedly feels good about the roster ahead of Week 1. Insider Dianna Russini reported on Tuesday that the Patriots are unlikely to make another big move before the opener. 'The Patriots- like every team- are constantly looking for possible ways to improve their roster,' said Russini. 'But from conversations I've been having, I don't sense that New England is close on a deal for any of the NFL's disgruntled stars at this time.' This is a notable report considering the history between Russini and Vrabel. If the Patriots really aren't interested in more splashy moves, then that means we have a good idea already of what the final roster will look like. Trey Hendrickson, Cameron Heyward, Terry McLaurin, and Micah Parsons are just some of the big-name players who are reportedly unhappy in their current situations. McLaurin and Parsons, in particular, would be interesting additions for the Patriots, but as Russini reported, a move isn't likely at this time.
