Giants to re-sign OL Aaron Stinnie
Aaron Stinnie has agreed to a one-year deal to return to the Giants for 2025, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.
Stinnie, 31, signed a one-year, $1.293 million contract with the team last offseason and ended up playing 16 games with three starts with the Giants.
He began his career with the Titans in 2018 and then went to the Bucs for 3 1/2 seasons. His stint in Tampa included 11 starts at left guard in 2023 but is best known for his play in the 2020 postseason when the Bucs won the Super Bowl.
After starting right guard Alex Cappa fractured an ankle in a wild-card game against Washington, Stinnie stepped in and played well during the playoff run.
In his career, Stinnie has appeared in 47 games with 15 starts in the regular season. He has played another seven postseason games with five starts.

Texans RB Nick Chubb ready to become 'great together' with Joe Mixon
Texans RB Nick Chubb ready to become 'great together' with Joe Mixon Nick Chubb is excited to call Joe Mixon a teammate in Houston. After watching his career revival last season as the Houston Texans' lead running back, who wouldn't be excited to see similar results after a lost campaign in Cleveland? Chubb, who inked a one-year deal worth $2.5 million earlier this week, will likely serve as the secondary runner behind Mixon to begin his career. Mixon is expected to be fully healthy by the time the season rolls around, but he missed three games during the 2024 regular season, meaning Chubb could see significant reps. After averaging 3.3 yards per play last season in eight games, Chubb is just looking to get back to a stable situation. Splitting carries with an option coming off a 1,000-yard campaign on a championship-caliber team might be a way to help the former Pro Bowler regain his confidence. "I think we're great together," Chubb said of Mixon during Texans minicamp Wednesday. "He's a bigger guy. You know, tall, explosive, he runs super hard, and I do the same thing. So, I think it'll be us, kind of doing it back-to-back against other defenses." Chubb, a 2018 second-round pick out of Georgia, ranks third on the Browns' career rushing list (6,843 yards) after spending the first seven years of his career in Cleveland. Much like the four-time Pro Bowler in the other major city of Ohio, Mixon spent seven seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals, helping them reach the Super Bowl in 2021. Not only did Chubb remember Mixon from his time in Cincinnati, but the two were in the same recruiting class back in 2014, where at one point, he thought they'd be teammates. "He should have come to Georgia, by the way. He went to Cincinnati. I played against him twice a year. And I was always afraid he would take over the game with his ability. You know, he runs super hard. And so, I think both of us have the same intangibles. It'll be tough for defense to stop.' The Texans open the

UFC analyst: Charles Oliveira's exciting style 'a cause for concern' against Ilia Topuria
UFC analyst: Charles Oliveira's exciting style 'a cause for concern' against Ilia Topuria Michael Bisping cautions Charles Oliveira in his approach against Ilia Topuria at UFC 317. Topuria (16-0 MMA, 8-0 UFC) meets Oliveira (35-10 MMA, 23-10 UFC) for the vacant UFC lightweight title in the June 28 main event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas (ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPN, ESPN+). Topuria, who's coming off back-to-back knockouts of Alexander Volkanovski and Max Holloway in featherweight title fights, is oozing confidence ahead of his return to lightweight. "If you ask Ilia Topuria, this is just a mere formality because he is going to touch the chin of 'Do Bronx,' he's going to touch Charles, and his chin will explode," Bisping said on his YouTube channel. "That is the confidence he has coming into this fight. That's the confidence he has going into every single fight." Oliveira is the most prolific finisher in UFC history. While he boasts fight-ending abilities both on the feet and the ground, Bisping is worried about his defense against someone like Topuria. Oliveira has been knocked down in his title wins over Michael Chandler, Dustin Poirier, and Justin Gaethje before rallying to get the finish. "Charles 'Do Bronx' Oliveira is an exciting fighter," Bisping said. "He is one of the best in the division and one of the most exciting, but it's the exciting style that he has that will give me cause for concern if I was coaching Charles 'Do Bronx' Oliveira. The way that he walks forward like a buzzsaw with reckless abandon, the not giving a damn attitude, it's beautiful to watch. It's very, very entertaining. Nobody will be booing when Charles Oliveira fights, but it's that reckless style that might get him clipped. Charles Oliveira is got the most bonuses, the most finishes. The man's excitement personified, but he takes a lot of chances. "Ilia Topuria, on the flip side, he's clean. He's composed, calm, he's in the moment. The hands are high, the base is low. The head is moving constantly and he's looking at his opponent, he's tracking him down across the octagon. He's using the feet to corral him against the fence. He's looking for openings and then he explodes, and when he explodes, we know he's got big power. He might explode the chin of Charles Oliveira, whereas Charles Oliveira, on the flip side with the Chute Boxe style, he's walking forward, the head's on a straight line, and the chin's a little up. He's throwing knees, he's throwing elbows, he's throwing everything but the kitchen sink. We absolutely love it, but that's got him in trouble before."
