In a moment that could quite literally break the internet, Swift will debut on "New Heights" when the new episode of the podcast drops on Wednesday at 7 pm EST. Ahead of the debut, the podcast has already dropped some huge moments from the episode.
One is Swift showing off her new album to both Travis and Jason, and another is Jason nearly running out of breath while offering up a crazy introduction.
IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME COMING

Jason states during his introduction that Swift has 14 Grammy awards, the most awarded artist in the history of the American Music Awards, Billboard Music Awards, and iHeart Music Awards, and her newest album set the record for 1.7 billion streams globally in the first week.
That fact was surprising to Swift, who stated, "Wow, really?"

Following Jason's crazy introduction, Swift took a chance to address the hilarious elephant in the room, and also lean into what "male sports fans" complained about when she began to attend football games.
"As we all know. You guys have a lot of male sports fans that listen to your podcast, and um, I think we all know that if there's one thing that male sports fans want to see in their spaces and on their screens, it's more of me," Swift quipped.
If anyone happened to be on social media when Swift made her NFL game debut, the comments were filled with people questioning why the phenom was blasted across the telecast of any game she attended. When Swift and Travis' relationship began to blossom, she was even bringing other famed singers with her, like Ice Spice.
Swift is clearly a global superstar, and her accolades are a mile long. Naturally, her appearance on her first podcast being "New Heights," might make the show explode even more.
It will be interesting to see what Swift says regarding football. Travis has been very vocal about turning her into a football fan, and claims the global superstar knows a lot about the game.
Travis also explained recently in a GQ cover story that Swift's workouts put him to shame. Either way, this should be an exciting episode, and the world is sure to tune in.

Bears exercise patience with Caleb Williams and his 70% completion, 4,000-yard goals
Bears exercise patience with Caleb Williams and his 70% completion, 4,000-yard goals originally appeared on The Sporting News In his second year in the NFL, Caleb Williams has clear targets to hit. Head coach Ben Johnson has set a benchmark of a 70% completion rate. Williams has embraced the challenge, pledging to complete 70% of his passes and throw for 4,000 yards. This is a big challenge for the Chicago Bears quarterback. Few QBs manage such a high completion rate. Only five reached 70% in 2024. It's a tough but attainable goal, one that demands patience from Johnson and the coaching staff. And that's exactly the approach they plan to take with the Bears' top pick in the 2024 NFL draft. According to ESPN's Courtney Cronin, the Bears coaching staff acknowledges that Williams still needs progress. On Sunday, Cronin reported on SportsCenter that Johnson laid out the statistical benchmarks the team expects Williams to reach in his second year. "That's how they're going to gauge progress from their quarterback in Year 2," Cronin said. Cronin highlighted the coaching staff's patient approach: "I think that also speaks to the patience that this coaching staff is trying to process with their quarterback over the next couple of weeks, even when they get into the regular season." Johnson revealed during training camp that Williams' current completion percentage in practice is below expectations. "That's obviously not the only measure of success they're going to reach, but they're trying to get him closer to that 70 percent mark more than what he's shown so far," Cronin added. There is pressure surrounding Williams, but he has the full support of the coaching staff, who will stand by him even if he struggles early in the season. With that backing, the expectation is clear: find the rhythm sooner rather than later and deliver.

Dolphins PFF grades: Best and worst performers vs. Lions
The Miami Dolphins erased a halftime deficit and came away with a 24-17 win against the Detroit Lions in a preseason matchup Saturday. With starters for both squads watching from the sideline -- including the Dolphins' Tua Tagovailoa, De'Von Achane, Tyreek Hill, and Jaylen Waddle -- it was the backups' time to shine. Rookie quarterback Quinn Ewers took advantage of the opportunity, leading the Dolphins to a come-from-behind win with three scoring drives after halftime. Veteran Zach Wilson struggled to get things going in the first half. So who stood out most? Pro Football Focus graded every player's performance Saturday: 5 best grades on offense LG Josh Priebe: 89.1 WR Theo Wease Jr: 85.9 WR Dee Eskridge: 85.8 RT Ryan Hayes: 81.3 TE Chris Myarick: 73.9 5 best grades on defense CB Ethan Johnson: 90.0 CB Cam Smith: 81.1 CB Kendall Sheffield: 78.6 CB Isaiah Johnson: 78.4 DL Kenneth Grant: 78.1 5 worst grades on offense RB Jaylen Wright: 37.2 WR Tarik Black: 51.0 QB Zach Wilson: 51.4 WR Erik Ezukanma: 51.8 TE Tanner Conner: 51.9 5 worst grades on defense CB Cornell Armstrong: 29.5 LB Eugene Asante: 36.7 S Patrick McMorris: 46.6 DL Zeek Biggers: 47.1 LB Willie Gay Jr: 48.9 This article originally appeared on Dolphins Wire: Dolphins PFF grades: Best and worst performers vs. Lions

NFL Insider Provides New Update on Chiefs' Rashee Rice
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Kansas City Chiefs and their fans are still licking their wounds after the team's lopsided loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIV. That loss prevented it from becoming the first team to ever claim three straight Vince Lombardi Trophies. While some may be counting out the Chiefs for this season, Patrick Mahomes and crew are still expected to do a good amount of damage, if not return to the big game. The biggest concern for Kansas City right now appears to be wide receiver Rashee Rice's impending suspension. ESPN insider Adam Schefter reported a couple of days ago that Rice is expected to have his disciplinary hearing with the NFL on Sept. 30, which seems to indicate that Rice will be able to play in at least the first four games of the regular season. Read more: Chiefs Get Major Update on Rashee Rice's Looming Suspension According to another ESPN insider -- Tom Pelissero -- the league wants to suspend Rice for a long stretch of games. "The expectation is Rashee Rice is going to be suspended for a portion of the 2025 season," Pelissero reported. "The question now is how much? My understanding is the NFL initially proposed a lengthy suspension — double-digit games for Rashee Rice — the players union and Rice's attorney and agents argued for a much shorter suspension, in part, because there is no precedent for suspending someone for over half the season in a case like this." The NFL initially proposed a lengthy suspension that would sideline #Chiefs WR Rashee Rice for over half the season. And while a Sept. 30 hearing date has been set, it's still possible a settlement could be reached before the season. @NFLGameDay @nflnetwork — Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) August 15, 2025 In fact, Pelissero said that there isn't any real clarity on when Rice would serve his likely suspension, and that it could still come during the beginning of the schedule. "There is still a possibility the sides could come together and agree to a settlement on a suspension that would allow Rice to be suspended at the start of the season," Pelissero added. "If not, he would be eligible for at least those first (four) games, but given the fact that not only the decision-making process but potential appeals could extend that process into October or November, this is something then that could jeopardize his availability for the postseason." Read more: Chargers Urged to Trade Key Wide Receiver Before Start of Regular Season Over the last couple of years, Rice has started to emerge as a legitimate threat for the Chiefs. As a rookie in 2023, he caught 79 passes for 938 yards and seven touchdowns, and last year, he had 24 catches, 288 yards and two touchdowns before a knee injury prematurely ended his season. They have lacked a legitimate star wide receiver ever since trading Tyreek Hill, an eight-time Pro Bowler, in 2022. KANSAS CITY, MO - SEPTEMBER 15:Rashee Rice #4 of the Kansas City Chiefs catches a pass during the fourth quarter of an NFL football game against the Cincinnati Bengals at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium... KANSAS CITY, MO - SEPTEMBER 15:Rashee Rice #4 of the Kansas City Chiefs catches a pass during the fourth quarter of an NFL football game against the Cincinnati Bengals at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium on September 15, 2024 in Kansas City, Missouri. Rashee Rice sustains knee injury in Week 4 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. MoreBut Rice seems to be on his way to perhaps becoming one. Additionally, speedster wideout Xavier Worthy showed some promise as a rookie in 2024 with 742 total yards from scrimmage and nine touchdowns. Their tag-team duo of Isiah Pacheco and Kareem Hunt at running back looks rock solid, as does their defense, which was fourth in points allowed last year. Any team with Mahomes on it can beat any other team, especially in high-leverage situations, and he could have as many weapons around him as he has had in a couple of years -- when Rice is available to play.
