Jets' Sauce Gardner sits out practice with sore calf, status for preseason game vs. Giants uncertain
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner sat out the team's joint practice with the Giants on Wednesday because of a sore calf. Gardner participated in practice Tuesday at the Jets' facility in Florham Park but wasn't spotted during the teams' session at the Giants' facility Wednesday. 'Sauce wasn't out (there) today,' coach Aaron Glenn said after practice. 'He had some calf soreness. We'll continue to evaluate him and see exactly where he's at.' Gardner has been one of the Jets' best players since being drafted fourth overall out of Cincinnati in 2022. He was the AP Defensive Rookie of the Year and was an All-Pro selection in his first two NFL seasons. The 24-year-old Gardner had a slightly off season, by his standards, last year but is still considered one of the league's elite cornerbacks. Gardner signed a four-year, $120.4 million extension through the 2030 season, making him the NFL's highest-paid player at his position. He also is the focal point of a new-look secondary for the Jets, who have Gardner and free-agent signing Brandon Stephens at cornerback, with Michael Carter as the nickelback and free-agent signing Andre Cisco and Tony Adams at safety. The Jets don't have another full practice before their preseason game against the Giants on Saturday night. Glenn declined to say whether he would play his starters in that game — 'The plan is the plan,' is all he would divulge — so it's unclear if Gardner would participate even if healthy. Typically, teams play their starters for a quarter or a half in the second game, using it as a warmup for the regular season while backups typically play the final preseason game. Rookie quarterback Brady Cook, an undrafted free agent out of Missouri, was back on the field after leaving practice Tuesday with an ankle injury after someone stepped on his foot. He didn't participate in team drills. 'Held him out, but I anticipate him playing this week,' Glenn said. 'So that's good.' Cook is one of just three healthy quarterbacks on the Jets' roster, with starter Justin Fields and Adrian Martinez. Glenn announced Tuesday that veteran backup Tyrod Taylor had arthroscopic knee surgery and wouldn't play the rest of the preseason. ___ AP NFL: Dennis Waszak Jr., The Associated Press

Paramount Skydance (PSKY) Gets 11% Boost from $7.7-Billion Exclusive UFC Deal
We recently published Paramount Skydance Corp. (NASDAQ:PSKY) is one of the best-performing stocks on Tuesday. Paramount Skydance ended 8.4 percent higher on Tuesday after rallying as much as 11.5 percent at intra-day trade, with investor sentiment fueled by its bagging of $7.7-billion exclusive media rights to the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). In a statement, Paramount Skydance Corp. (NASDAQ:PSKY) said it entered into an agreement with TKO Group Holdings, Inc., a premium sports and entertainment company, to exclusively air UFC for seven years beginning in 2026. The deal would include UFC's full slate of 13 marquee numbered events and 30 Fight Nights through its direct-to-consumer streaming platform, Paramount+, with select numbered events to be simulcast on CBS. As part of the agreement, Paramount Skydance Corp. (NASDAQ:PSKY) will move UFC away from the existing Pay-Per-View model and make the latter available at no additional cost to Paramount+ subscribers in the US. It also intends to explore UFC rights outside the US in the future. UFC is the world's premier mixed martial arts (MMA) organization. In the US alone, UFC has approximately 100 million fans who are highly engaged across linear, digital, and social platforms. While we acknowledge the potential of PSKY as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.

Minnesota Twins won't be sold, will remain under control of Pohlad family
The owners of the Minnesota Twins said Wednesday they will not explore a sale and the team will remain under family control. The Pohlad family instead says they have agreed in principle to take on minority investment from two different groups, just 10 months after announcing plans to sell the franchise. "After a detailed and robust process, our family will remain the principal owner of the Minnesota Twins," the family said in the statement. "To strengthen the club in a rapidly evolving sports landscape – one that demands strong partnerships, fresh ideas, and long-term vision – we are in the process of adding two significant limited partnership groups, each of whom will bring a wealth of experience and share our family values." The family has owned the team since 1984, when Carl Pohlad bought the team for $44 million from Calvin Griffith, and the Pohlad children inherited the Twins upon his death in 2009. Pohlad's grandson, Joe, is the team's executive chair. The Twins are valued at $1.5 billion, according to Forbes Magazine, which ranks 23rd out of 30 MLB teams. Their 2025 payroll sits at $142,762,022, with their highest-paid player this season being pitcher Pablo López, who is making $21.75 million. Minnesota is 56-63 and currently in fourth place in the American League Central. At the trade deadline, the team went into fire sale mode, trading 10 players, including shortstop Carlos Correa, who was sent to the Houston Astros, and relief pitcher Jhoan Duran, who was shipped off to the Philadelphia Phillies.
