Colorado State University announces pro bull riding event will return in 2026 for three nights
CSU and PBR hosted their first-ever partnered event on Monday night, with thousands of rodeo and country music fans in attendance. This marked the first time Canvas Stadium hosted a major event outside of a football game or graduation. The stadium opened in 2017 and was designed to be multi-purpose.
The 2025 event was only slated for two nights, taking place on Monday, July 21, and Tuesday, July 22. In 2026, the event is scheduled for Canvas Stadium on July 10, 11, and 12.
CSU President Amy Parsons took to social media to celebrate the extension of the event partnership. Athletic director John Weber told CBS News Colorado's Dillon Thomas he was excited to bring back PBR to Canvas and continue to expand the ways the stadium can be used as a gathering place for entertainment.
Cross Canadian Ragweed played the stadium on Monday night, marking the first time a band has played at the stadium outside of CSU's marching band. The first act was originally slated to be Tim McGraw, but he pulled out of the event, citing health concerns.
Tuesday night, John Pardi is scheduled to perform. The musicians to play in 2026 have not been announced yet.

Sean Payton: Dre Greenlaw plays like Mike Tyson
Linebacker Dre Greenlaw made the most of the first day in pads at Broncos training camp. Greenlaw filled gaps and delivered hits throughout team drills in Denver and head coach Sean Payton said you didn't even have to be watching to know that Greenlaw was the one landing blows. Payton said "you can hear it" when Greenlaw makes a hit and then went on to compare his style to another knockout artist from a different sport. "He plays like Mike Tyson," Payton said, via the team's website. "He's tough, he's physical. He's built that way. There's not a lot of leaky yardage. Some guys [allow that]. He's a knock-back tackler. They stop where he hits them. There's an intensity to how he plays. He's one of those players that if you put the film on and didn't say anything, at some point early, you'd ask, 'Who is this guy?'" Greenlaw was limited to two games for the 49ers last year because of injuries and a quad injury interrupted his first offseason in Denver, so one key for the Broncos will be making sure Greenlaw's healthy enough to deploy that physicality on a regular basis. If he is, facing an already tough Broncos defense will be even less enjoyable for opposing offenses in 2025.

Commanders put OL Nate Herbig on reserve/retired list
Veteran offensive lineman Nate Herbig is walking away from football. Herbig signed with the Commanders this offseason, but the team announced on Tuesday morning that he has been placed on the team's reserve/retired list. He will no longer count against the team's 90-man roster limit. Herbig spent the last two seasons with the Steelers, but did not play at all in 2024 after a rotator cuff injury. Herbig appeared in 17 games for the Steelers in 2023 and he started 11 games at guard for the Jets in 2022. The Eagles signed Herbig as an undrafted free agent in 2019 and he started 17 of the 33 games he played while with Philadelphia. Nick Allegretti and Chris Paul remain on hand as depth options at guard in Washington.
