Dolphins' Chop Robinson leaves on cart during practice, says it's not serious
Robinson, on Instagram, said: 'I'm good ya'll. Nothing serious.'
Robinson did not accompany teammates on a bus back to the team hotel. He instead was transported by car to an unidentified location. A source said it's not a head injury.
Robinson was injured during a scramble for a loose ball; linebacker Jordyn Brooks forced a fumble on Detroit running back David Montgomery.
Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver and linebacker Jaelan Phillips went to check on him.
Robinson had six sacks as a rookie last season and is expected to have a major role this season, in combination with Phillips and Bradley Chubb.

Dillon Gabriel insists 'There's entertainers and there's competitors' remark was not swipe at Shedeur Sanders
Dillon Gabriel appeared to throw some shade in addition to his 18 passes during his preseason debut on Saturday for the Cleveland Browns. But it wasn't directed at fellow rookie Shedeur Sanders, as many immediately speculated. After sitting out the Browns' preseason opener with a hamstring injury, Gabriel got the start versus the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles and played respectably. He completed 13 of 18 passes, but one of them was returned for a pick 6 by Eagles rookie safety Andrew Mukuba. However, Gabriel made a remark during a televised interview that quickly raised eyebrows. Speaking on the sideline after Tyler Huntley took over at QB, he appeared to take a swipe at Sanders, with whom he's competing for a spot on the Browns' depth chart and perhaps a spot on the roster. [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] Asked by reporter Aditi Kinkhabwala to share his thoughts on "tuning out the noise" and not letting it interfere with his preparation, Gabriel seemingly addressed something unrelated to the question. "There's entertainers and there's competitors, and I totally understand that," Gabriel said. "But my job is to compete. And that's what I'm focused on." Interpreting that comment as a dig at Sanders could be taking the remark out of context. But the exact exchange went like this: Kinkhabwala: "You gave us some fabulous wisdom on how you tune out the noise and don't let it infiltrate yourself; will you share that with everybody at home?" Gabriel: "Yeah, it's just part of it. You know, 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." Gabriel was asked about demonstrating leadership and talking to receivers and running backs on the sideline in the previous question. So it's possible he was continuing some thoughts on that, even though Kinkhabwala went on to another question. Another possibility was that Gabriel remembered what he heard at Oregon — perhaps head coach Dan Lanning, in particular — about facing Sanders and Colorado. Lanning infamously made a pregame locker room speech in which he told his players, "They're fighting for clicks, we're fighting for wins." However, Bo Nix was Oregon's quarterback that season. Gabriel was at Oklahoma. And the Ducks did not play the Buffaloes during his lone season at Oregon after transferring. Yet it's not difficult to imagine that Gabriel talked to his former coaches and teammates before he was preparing to compete against Colorado's outspoken QB in a competition for a roster spot. As a third-round draft pick, Gabriel's place on the roster seems more assured than Sanders, who was selected in the fifth round. Yet Sanders has received decidedly more attention from media and fans because of his drop down the NFL draft board and his self-promoting persona at Colorado that continued leading up to the draft. In his preseason debut, Sanders threw for 138 yards and completed 14 of 23 passes with two touchdowns. Gabriel's remark, especially the "entertainers" crack, didn't seem to be addressing the media, Yet he insisted otherwise when asked about it after Saturday's game, saying he was referring to the media with that. (Other NFL reporters supported that notion, faulting the league's social media channels for posting the clip out of context.) "I'm all about my team and each other," Gabriel said. Though Gabriel was actually taking a shot at the media, not Sanders, the comment will still likely be picked apart and become a topic during the upcoming week of practice. As a result, Gabriel possibly created the very noise he was asked about tuning out.

Well-traveled Liberty fall to well-rested Lynx, New York still searching for first win in season series
The New York Liberty were playing their third road game this week. The Minnesota Lynx were playing their first game this week. And it showed Saturday — well, only at first. The Liberty scored just 12 points in the first quarter, their fewest to open a game this year, and didn't make a single 3-pointer in the frame. Three minutes into the second quarter, the Lynx boasted a 15-point advantage. That's when Sandy Brondello's injury-riddled and battle-tested New York squad rallied, eventually taking a lead that it juggled throughout the second half. But the Liberty ultimately didn't have enough in the tank to hold off the top team in the league table, a Lynx group continuing to avenge its WNBA Finals defeat and now two victories away from matching the franchise single-season wins record it set last year. After starting a mere 2-of-13 from the field, including 1-of-6 from deep, Kayla McBride dropped a 29-foot 3 with 31.9 seconds remaining to effectively seal the deal. McBride, who uncharacteristically missed four free throws, made enough to help ice an 86-80 win at the charity stripe. New York (21-13), still stuck in a scrum for the No. 2 seed in the playoffs, is now 0-3 against the Lynx this season after beating them in five games for the 2024 WNBA championship. Minnesota (28-5) improved to 17-1 at home and hasn't lost a game this month. During that stretch, the Lynx are 4-0 without the W's leading scorer in the lineup. Napheesa Collier, a top candidate for the league's MVP honor this year, was sidelined for the fourth game in a row as she continues to recover from a sprained right ankle. In her absence, fellow All-Star Courtney Williams stepped up with a season-high 26 points on 10-of-18 shooting, plus five assists. "Honestly, we down Phee," Williams told CBS in her on-court postgame interview. "So, like I always say, somebody got to give a little bit more. We all got to give a little bit more. So when I'm feeling it, it's a problem." The Liberty were missing three key pieces of their frontcourt: Nyara Sabally, Isabelle Harrison and, most importantly, two-time WNBA MVP Breanna Stewart. Stewart, currently nursing a knee injury, hasn't played since July 26. She's missed 10 consecutive games, and the Liberty are just 4-6 in that span. Despite not making a 3 in the first quarter, New York finished with 11 on the day. Five different Liberty players made a pair of triples, and they all scored in double figures. That group included Kennedy Burke and Marine Johannès, who added 11 and 12 points off the bench, respectively. Liberty center Jonquel Jones, last year's WNBA Finals MVP, led the team with 17 points and polished off a 16-0 New York run that started cutting into a double-digit, first-quarter deficit and then created a second-quarter lead. From that point forward, the Liberty and Lynx traded blows. While Williams carried an offensive load with her jumpshot, she and others consistently located Jesscia Shepard and Alanna Smith in the paint down the stretch. Those two combined for 31 points and 17 rebounds. "I think when I knock down a couple shots, that big got to step up," Williams told CBS. "And when they step up, I got my bigs that I know can finish down low." New York won't have to wait long for another chance at Minnesota. The Liberty will host the Lynx on Tuesday, the WNBA heavyweights' final regular-season matchup this year.

Seiya Suzuki hits a tiebreaking single as the Cubs edge the Pirates 3-1
CHICAGO (AP) — Seiya Suzuki hit a tiebreaking single in the eighth inning, and the Chicago Cubs beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 3-1 on Saturday for a sorely needed victory. Kyle Tucker hit a leadoff single against Evan Sisk (0-1) and stole second before coming home on Suzuki's grounder into center field. Nico Hoerner tacked on a two-out RBI double following an intentional walk to Ian Happ. Chicago (69-53) had dropped four of five, including a 3-2 loss in the series opener on Friday. Cubs left-hander Shota Imanaga pitched seven innings of three-hit ball. Andrew Kittredge (3-3) got three outs before Brad Keller handled the ninth for his first save. Tommy Pham homered for Pittsburgh (52-72), which lost for the sixth time in seven games. ___ AP MLB:
