Arizona Cardinals sign former Cowboys, Chargers WR Simi Fehoko
The Arizona Cardinals have added a wide receiver to their roster. The team announced Friday that former Los Angeles Chargers receiver Simi Fehoko was signed to a one-year contract.
Fehoko has some physical traits the Cardinals will like. He is 6-foot-4 and 218 pounds with speed. His 40 time entering the NFL draft in 2021 was 4.44 seconds.
He was drafted in the fifth round in 2021 by the Dallas Cowboys, where he played two seasons before spending two years with the Chargers.
Through four seasons, he has not played more than eight games and that was last season. He started twice in 2024. He had six receptions for 106 yards, an average of 17.7 yards per catch. He played a career-high 244 offensive snaps last season after logging a total of 67 in his three previous seasons.
He figures to compete for a spot on the roster and potentially a place in the playing rotation. His size and speed potentially give the Cardinals another deep threat.
His contract is not likely for much, as he has not yet proven much in the league, but there is some potential for some upside. He will be a guy to watch as the offseason progresses and when training camp begins.

Noah Lyles: Race with Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill was canceled
Noah Lyles: Race with Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill was canceled Show Caption Hide Caption Noah Lyles triumphs with Olympic bronze despite COVID-19 diagnosis Noah Lyles wins bronze in the 200m at the Paris Olympics despite testing positive for COVID-19 earlier in the week, his condition was kept private. Is Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill the true fastest man in the world? We may never know the answer. Noah Lyles, who won the gold medal in the 100-meter dash at the 2024 Paris Olympics to take the "world's fastest man" title, announced Monday that his race with Hill had been canceled. Lyles was speaking on a panel at a Sport Beach event in Cannes, France when someone asked him about the race against the speedy NFL wideout. "We were very deep into creating the event. In fact, it was supposed to happen this weekend," Lyles said. "Unfortunately there were some things, complications, personal reasons that it just didn't come to pass." NOAH LYLES-TYREEK HILL RACE: Dolphins WR, Olympic gold medalist planned to race this summer The speedsters originally announced plans for a summer race in a joint interview with People magazine in February after months of back-and-forth trash-talking on social media. In the interview, Hill and Lyles insinuated the race would be somewhere between 40 yards (36.6 meters) and 100 meters, a compromise that accommodated the different sports backgrounds of the two athletes. Hill has not let the cancellation stop him from running in other organized events. On Friday, the Dolphins wideout won the 100-meter dash event at a track meet in California with an official time of 10.15 seconds, which set a new personal best for the 31-year-old. After the race, he held up a sign that said, "Noah could never." It was a nod to a similar sign that Lyles had written – "Tyreek could never" – on the inside of his sprint bib and showed to the camera after winning a 60-meter sprint at a race in Boston in early February. Lyles won the gold medal at the Olympics with a personal-best time of 9.78 seconds, which suggests he still could have beaten Hill handily if the two had raced their 100-meter dash.

PGA Tour leadership: Brian Rolapp is in, with Jay Monahan to be phased out
CROMWELL, Conn. — The PGA Tour has new leadership. Jay Monahan, the current commissioner of the PGA Tour, will step down from his position at the end of 2026 to make way for the new CEO, Brian Rolapp. The tour officially announced Rolapp's hire from the NFL on Tuesday. The search for a CEO to be at the helm of the PGA Tour's new for-profit entity, PGA Tour Enterprises, began at the start of this year, with an implication that Monahan could phase out of his role upon an eventual hire. Monahan will stay on through the duration of his contract, with Rolapp taking over his day-to-day responsibilities when he officially steps into the role later this summer. Monahan will turn his focus over to his roles on both the PGA Tour Policy Board and the PGA Tour Enterprises Board. Advertisement Rolapp addressed the PGA Tour in an open letter on Tuesday morning, sent as he joined a players-only meeting that took place here at the Travelers Championship. The seasoned executive has held various leadership roles at the NFL over the last two decades, notably serving as the chief negotiator for the NFL's $110 billion media deals with ESPN, NBC, Fox, CBS and Amazon. Many believed he could be Roger Goodell's successor as the NFL commissioner, but Goodell's contract has been extended again, The Athletic reported last month. Addressing the media for the first time since his official appointment, Rolapp emphasized his blank-slate approach to the role, and the ability to respect tradition without letting it hold the tour back. He comes into the job as the PGA Tour and LIV Golf continue to operate in a fractured state, with negotiations between the tour and the Saudi Public Investment Fund, LIV's financial backer, stalling in recent months. While Rolapp did not comment on a specific plan to bring the tours together, he noted that the best players competing together on the same stages is clearly what fans of the game want. As a self-proclaimed fan of the game, Rolapp aligned with that sentiment. 'When it comes to the situation with LIV, I think that's a complex situation that's probably something I should learn more about before I speak. But I will say my focus is on growing the Tour, making it better, and really moving on from the position of strength that it has,' Rolapp said. Rolapp said he was drawn to the role for a variety of reasons, but he specifically pointed to the $1.5 billion investment from Strategic Sports Group, a private equity group of American sports team owners and leaders, as a significant influence in his interest. That money, which could be matched by the Public Investment Fund should a deal be completed, has not been spent. The tour has previously stated its plans to give players a stake in its future, in the form of equity grants. Advertisement 'Where we deploy that capital, I have ideas,' Rolapps said. 'I don't think I want to share them now, but that's going to be part of the job to get in there and talk about it. But I think they saw when I saw, which is a great opportunity, and just getting sort of the right alignment and the right capital to do that, that's what really drew me to it. It's an investor group that is experienced in sports. They're smart.' Members of the CEO search committee were on hand for Rolapp's announcement, including Tiger Woods, Adam Scott and Monahan. Monahan's tenure as PGA Tour commissioner began in January 2017. Many lauded his ability to guide the sport through the pandemic. When the threat of LIV Golf emerged in 2021, Monahan took a strong stance against the start-up league, a move that ultimately came back to bite him when the PGA Tour announced a shocking framework agreement with the PIF in 2023. Players and constituents in the game criticized Monahan for operating behind closed doors and flipping his previously declared stance on the issue. Rolapp, who admittedly plays between five and 10 rounds of golf per year, shared his intention to learn from Monahan as he transitions out of his role. 'No one hired me for my golf game here. That's not my job. My job is to do other things. But I'm a big fan of the sport,' Rolapp said.
