Why Shedeur Sanders approached Tony Grossi over 'negative' coverage
Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders put on a show in Charlotte on Friday night, but he also had some choice words for longtime Cleveland radio host and journalist Tony Grossi. Sanders approached Grossi, alleging that the Cleveland media personality "only [says] negative stuff about [Sanders]" and that he's never done anything to Grossi in the past. The two did share a brief laugh in the awkward encounter, but Sanders seemed adamant that Grossi hasn't been treating him fairly since he got to Cleveland as a fifth round 2025 NFL Draft selection. "What did I do to you, Tony?" Sanders asked as he walked away from the encounter. Grossi is an established media figure in the area, and we're sure this isn't the first time he's been confronted by a Cleveland player over negative coverage of a long-suffering sports franchise. Sanders performed admirably in his first NFL preseason start, and we're sure Grossi will give him a fair shake with those encouraging reps. However, both participants in this exchange are occupying typical roles in sports and media. Neither is technically in the wrong, even if Sanders took a very direct approach to his frustration. Sanders has a right to be annoyed by Grossi's coverage as much as Grossi has a right to his opinions of Sanders, positive or negative. While most players don't go about it in such a direct way as Sanders did, it can come with the territory of being a vocal sports personality in the media. As Sanders gets older, he may find different avenues to vent his frustration with folks like Grossi. However, how he plays and if he's successful or not will ultimately drive most of the discourse around his career. When will Sanders play again? Cleveland will head to Philadelphia to play the Eagles on Saturday, Aug. 16. This article originally appeared on For The Win: Why did Shedeur Sanders approached Tony Grossi over 'negative' coverage?

Bucs' Mike Evans does not rule out retirement in interview with Kay Adams
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans has spent over a decade carving out a Hall of Fame résumé, 11 straight 1,000-yard seasons, a Super Bowl title, and an unmatched consistency that's made him one of the most respected receivers of his generation. But as he enters his 12th NFL season, Evans made headlines with a revealing comment about his future. In a recent interview on Up & Adams with Kay Adams, the 31-year-old admitted that retirement is a possibility once the 2025 season ends. 'Retirement at the end of this season isn't off the table and playing for 2‑5 more years isn't off the table either,' Evans told Adams. 'I know I'm not playing five more years… but it's easy for me to say I could play another two or three.' While Evans stopped short of making any firm declarations, the tone of his comments hinted at a player who is beginning to weigh the future seriously. He also revealed that he doesn't see himself playing much longer beyond the next few seasons. Evans enters the 2025 season tied with Jerry Rice for the most consecutive 1,000-yard receiving seasons in NFL history (11). That kind of historic company puts his career firmly in Hall of Fame territory and adds a bit more intrigue to what his final seasons might be. Yet, through it all, Evans has remained loyal to Tampa Bay, the franchise that drafted him seventh overall in 2014. 'I'm a Buc for life, no matter what,' he said during the interview. Evans' current contract expires after this season. Whether he decides to retire, return on a short-term deal, or test free agency again will be one of the Buccaneers' biggest offseason storylines. Evans also mentioned an interest in participating in flag football during the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles a hint that his NFL career could wrap up before then. 'Most likely I'll be retired by 2028,' Evans said, while expressing excitement about potentially representing Team USA on the Olympic stage. The NFL legend's comments suggest a growing openness to life after football, though not necessarily an imminent exit. Still, the Bucs and their fans may want to start preparing for the eventual reality of football without their most iconic receiver. If 2025 does turn out to be Evans' swan song, he'll leave the Buccaneers with one of the most decorated and loyal careers in franchise history. From his record-breaking consistency to his pivotal role in the team's 2020 Super Bowl run, Evans has been the face of the organization through multiple eras. For now, though, he's focused on the task at hand: helping Tampa Bay compete in what could be a final chapter of a legendary career. Whether 2025 is the end or just the next step, Mike Evans has made one thing clear: he'll be walking away on his own terms, and always as a Buccaneer.
