Colts remain among trade destinations for elite pass rusher
Colts remain among trade destinations for elite pass rusher originally appeared on The Sporting News The Trey Hendrickson saga in Cincinnati has reached its latest twist. NFL insider Tom Pelissero shared that, after renewed contract negotiations and Hendrickson returning to Bengals practice, the team is now open to trading last season's league-leader in sacks. Peliserro says that no deal is close, but the Bengals have shifted their stance after initially having no interest in moving on from Hendrickson. The Colts have been linked to Hendrickson ever since the situation went sour with his current team. Indy's defensive coordinator, Lou Anarumo, worked with Hendrickson for four seasons, helping him hit the 17.5 sack mark in each of the last two seasons. NFL insider Jordan Schultz shared that Indy is among the teams who have expressed interest in Hendrickson, adding that the Bengals' desired return is not expected to be cheap, asking for at least an 'impact player' as compensation. < This report isn't exactly news when you consider the strength of Anarumo and Hendrickson's partnership on the field. But the Colts have a plethora of pass rushers of their own already who they believe can make an impact, including Kwity Paye, Laiatu Latu and rookie JT Tuimoloau. Still, general manager Chris Ballard tends to be aggressive when pursuing pass rush. Previously in his tenure, he's made trades for franchise cornerstone DeForest Buckner, defensive end Yannick Ngakoue and signing Samson Ebukam as a free agent back in 2023. In the return for Ngakoue, a player requested by then-defensive coordinator Gus Bradley due to schematic familiarity, included a player in cornerback Rock Ya-Sin. So, Ballard is no stranger to being aggressive for a player he wants. But with the depth the Colts currently have on the edge, the price may be a bit too high to go after Hendrickson.

Orioles promote top prospect Samuel Basallo for MLB debut
HOUSTON (AP) — Baltimore's top prospect Samuel Basallo will make his MLB debut Sunday after the Orioles selected his contract from Triple-A Norfolk. Basallo, rated Baltimore's No. 1 prospect and the No. 8 prospect in baseball by is a catcher and first baseman, but was batting sixth and serving as the team's designated hitter Sunday in the series finale against the Astros. 'This is the first big Latin American signing that we've had that shows up and it's a really good one,' Baltimore interim manager Tony Mansolino said. 'So we're excited about him. We expect him to be competitive and do well.' His promotion comes a day after the team brought up No. 3 prospect outfielder Dylan Beavers. Basallo, a 21-year-old from the Dominican Republic, hit .270 with 23 homers and 67 RBIs in 76 games for Norfolk this season. He will be the team's backup catcher behind star Adley Rutschman and get work at first base. 'Adley will function as our No. 1 catcher because that's what he is,' Mansolino said. 'He's a really good catcher. Basollo will function as the No. 2 catcher, catch day games, Adley won't catch four in a row, things like that.' Mansolino added that Basollo would start at catcher Monday night at Boston and that he'd get him in the lineup at first base during the team's next homestand. Also on Sunday, the Orioles reinstated OF Colton Cowser from the 7-day concussion list and optioned OF Daniel Johnson and 1B/OF Ryan Noda to Norfolk. They also transferred right-hander Zach Eflin (low back discomfort) to the 60-day injured list. ___ AP MLB:

Gabriel denies ‘entertainers' jab was aimed at Browns teammate Shedeur Sanders
Cleveland Browns quarterback Dillon Gabriel has denied he was referring to his teammate Shedeur Sanders when he aimed a jab at 'entertainers' in the NFL. 'There's entertainers and there's competitors, and I totally understand that. But my job is to compete. And that's what I'm focused on doing,' Gabriel told CBS from the sidelines during the Browns' preseason victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday. Gabriel completed 13 of 18 passes for 143 yards and an interception. Related: The draft roughed up Shedeur Sanders. The NFL will demand even more Many on social media thought the comment was a reference to Sanders, the son of hall of famer Deion Sanders, who has received huge amounts of media attention since the Browns took him in the fifth round of this year's draft. The Browns picked Gabriel in the third round of the same draft and the duo are in a battle with Joe Flacco and Kenny Pickett to win the starter's job this season. Flacco is expected to start in Cleveland's opening game, but Sanders was impressive in his preseason debut last week before an oblique injury forced him to miss Saturday's game. 'I'm all about our team and each other,' Gabriel said after Saturday's game. 'I would never make that [comment about Sanders] and I've said it before that's why it's interesting, but for me I've explained it entertainers are you all, competitor, that's what I am, and all my teammates and we both have jobs to do, so that's it.'
