Joey Bosa Expected To Have Full Workload in Buffalo Bills Camp
Joey Bosa Expected To Have Full Workload in Buffalo Bills Camp originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
The big splash of the Buffalo Bills' offseason was landing edge rusher Joey Bosa. Bosa is a five-time Pro Bowler and, when healthy, one of the best edge rushers in the NFL.

That caveat is an important one, though. Bosa has played just 28 games over the past five seasons. He had a mostly healthy 2024, playing in 14 games and being named to his fifth Pro Bowl.
Bosa has been dealing with a calf injury that he suffered in the offseason, but he has been working with the Bills' medical staff this spring.
Bosa has missed practice due to injury, and to the concern of many Bills fans. According to Buffalo News' Ryan O'Halloran, his absence is out of caution, and he'll be up and running for a full workload in July for training camp.
"Joey Bosa (calf) said being cautious with sitting out but expects to be full go by camp" Halloran reported on X.

Bosa was drafted with the No. 3 overall pick of the 2016 NFL Draft by the Chargers. Bosa spent all nine of his NFL seasons with the franchise before being released this offseason.
To date, Bosa has 72 career sacks, the 14th-highest mark among active players and a top 100 mark in NFL history since the stat became official in 1982.
Bosa has tallied double-digit sack totals in four of his nine NFL seasons, and for his career he averages 11.4 sacks per 17 games.
Bosa will be joining an already strong defensive unit for the Bills. Paired with Greg Rousseau on the edge and Ed Oliver and Daquan Jones in the middle, Buffalo's front four will be a force to be reckoned with for opposing offensive lines. Not to mention the fact that the Bills have a pair of heavy hitters behind them, in linebackers Matt Milano and Terrell Bernard.

Bosa's cousin, wide receiver Jake Kumerow played three seasons with the Bills from 2020-2022. In Buffalo, Kumerow played 27 games, hauling in seven catches for 114 yards and a touchdown. Kumerow mainly cut his teeth on special teams, where he played 430 snaps for the Bills.

Scottie Scheffler Assigns Blames for Falling Short at US Open
Scottie Scheffler Assigns Blames for Falling Short at US Open originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Scottie Scheffler is the best golfer in the world, but even he found himself humbled by the rigors of Oakmont Country Club by the end of the US Open on Sunday, June 15. Advertisement Scheffler, a three-time major champion who captured the PGA Championship earlier this year, finished the tournament at +4 and tied for seventh-place, five shots behind winner J.J. Spaun (-1) of the United States. Spaun was the only player to defeat the course over 72 holes, as runner-up Robert McIntyre of Scotland posted a +1 score for the event. Scheffler spoke following his final round and assigned blame for his difficulties at what is likely to prove the toughest venue of the 2025 PGA Tour season once the year concludes. Scottie Scheffler watches a shot during the second round of the US LeClaire-Imagn Images "I felt like I did some good things out there. A few more putts drop today, I think it's a little different story," Scheffler said, per the New York Post. "My first three days, I felt like I was battling the whole time. Today, I hit some shots. I hit some putts that I really thought were going in, hit some lips. It was just challenging. I was just right on the edge today. I battled as hard as I did this week." Advertisement Scheffler has three wins this year, including the PGA Championship. There is one major remaining on the 2025 schedule -- The Open at Royal Portrush Golf Club in Northern Ireland, which will be held between July 17-20. The Open remains one of two major championships, along with the US Open, that Scheffler has yet to win before completing the sport's career Grand Slam.

Scottie Scheffler Breaks Silence After Bad Day at the US Open 2025
Scottie Scheffler Breaks Silence After Bad Day at the US Open 2025 originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Scottie Scheffler failed to work his magic during the first round of the U.S. Open. He managed three birdies on the toughest course but bogeyed too many times to end up with a score of 3-over par after 18. Advertisement Scheffler was visibly disappointed with his performance, which even involved him slamming his club on the ground after a shot at the 14th hole. He believes that Oakmont is a place where having tons of strategy doesn't work. One just has to be in the present and keep hitting those shots. "It's one of those places. There's not a ton of strategy, I would say," Scheffler told reporters on Thursday. "It's just you step up there on a tee box and (are) like what club can I get into this fairway and then you try and hit that club in the fairway and if you don't, it's like all right how am I gonna get out of this rough and get the ball back into the fairway so I can have a shot at the green." Scottie Scheffler plays his shot from the tenth tee during the first round.© Charles LeClaire-Imagn Images "It's not like an overly strategic golf course where you know there's a lot of club options off the tee and stuff like that," Scheffer added. "It's just the golf course where you step on the tee box, you look at that fairway and you're like, all right, keep balling that thing." Advertisement The World No. 1 was not alone in having such a bad start. Even Bryson DeChambeau, the defending US Open champion, along with Rory McIlroy, had a disappointing start to the major. DeChambeau birdied two holes but bogeyed five, taking his score to 3-over par just like Scheffler after round one. The LIV Golf star also finished T49 after the first round. McIlroy started strong with two birdies on the back nine but bogeyed the fourth hole and double bogeyed one to finish with a score of 4-over par at T62.

Jordan Spieth Makes Honest Admission on US Open
Jordan Spieth Makes Honest Admission on US Open originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Jordan Spieth's performance during the first round of the U.S. Open was quite rocky. He finished with even par after 18 holes but recorded four birdies and four bogeys. He holds the T11 spot heading into Friday. Advertisement After a shaky start, Spieth shared his thoughts on Oakmont. He said that on this course, if someone offered him an even‑par round, he would gladly accept it rather than try to shoot under par. Missing the fairway is akin to incurring a stroke penalty on most holes. "If you miss the fairway. It's essentially a stroke penalty." Spieth said. "There's a few places where it's not the case, but on almost every hole it's a stroke penalty. I was close to shooting three under and finished at even. I think I would have signed for it. I would have signed for it three more times to put me in a good spot." Jordan Spieth walks from the first tee during a practice round.© Charles LeClaire-Imagn Images Spieth feels that many of the fairways at the course are very tough to hit and rain before the weekend might change things up. Advertisement "We'll see how the course changes. A couple of fairways became almost impossible to hit today, and that won't change tomorrow. And then if we get a little rain, maybe we'll get a chance to score a little, but we'll see." He added. As things stand, J.J. Spaun holds the solo lead with a score of 4-under par. Thriston Lawrence holds the second with a 3-under par. Brooks Koepka, Si Woo Kim and Sungjae Im are tied in third.
