Ashton Jeanty signs rookie contract
The Raiders have their new running back under contract.
Via Ian Rapoport of NFL Media, former Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty has signed his rookie deal.
He's the highest 2025 draft pick to agree to terms. As the sixth overall selection, he will receive a slotted four-year contract, worth $35.895 million. Like all first-round deals, the four years are fully guaranteed.

Jeanty was the first running back taken, and he instantly becomes the eleventh highest-paid running back in the NFL. The contract, again, was driven solely by where he was picked. Any player — at any position — would have gotten that same deal.
So we now know three things about Jeanty. One, what he'll be making. Two, where he fits in the running back hierarchy. Three, Tom Brady wasn't part of any evaluation process.

Mexico overcomes slow start to defeat Dominican Republic 3-2 in Gold Cup group stage
INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Defending champion Mexico overcame a slow start to defeat the Dominican Republic 3-2 on Saturday night in a CONCACAF Gold Cup group stage match. West Ham midfielder Edson Álvarez opened the scoring in the 44th minute, Fulham striker Raúl Jiménez added a goal in the 47th and defender César Montes got another one in the 53rd. Jiménez now has 40 goals with the Mexican national team and is six away from Jared Borgetti, in second place on the career scoring list for El Tri. Javier Hernández is Mexico's to scorer with 52. Mexico leads Group A with three points while the Dominican Republic is at the bottom. Costa Rica and Suriname, the other countries in the group, will face off on Sunday in Snapdragon stadium in San Diego. Peter González in the 51st minute and Edison Ascona in the 67th scored for the Dominicans, who earned their first qualification as one of the four group winners in League B of the CONCACAF Nations League. The match was played at SoFi stadium before 54,309 fans, most of them rooting for Mexico. There was uncertainty on how many Mexican fans would attend the match. On Friday, Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum urged U.S. officials not to target individuals attending the game. Dozens of workers have been detained by federal immigration authorities in a series of raids in LA's fashion district and at Home Depot parking lots in Southern California. More than 100 people have been detained. Mexico will try to qualify for the next round next Wednesday when they play Suriname while the Dominican Republic will play Costa Rica. Both matches will be played at the AT&T stadium in Arlington, Texas. ___ AP soccer:

Is Broadcom Stock Your Ticket to Becoming a Millionaire?
Artificial intelligence (AI) is moving the needle significantly for Broadcom, and that trend could continue thanks to the huge addressable market it is serving. The chipmaker is now expected to clock stronger growth in the coming years thanks to AI. Broadcom's impressive growth and valuation make the stock an attractive buy. 10 stocks we like better than Broadcom › The artificial intelligence (AI) boom has supercharged Broadcom's (NASDAQ: AVGO) growth in recent quarters, with the company now getting a significant chunk of its revenue from selling custom processors and networking chips deployed by major cloud service providers in their data centers. The stock has made a big move in the past couple of months, jumping an impressive 41% as of this writing and going well past $1 trillion in market cap. The good part is that Broadcom is scratching the surface of a massive opportunity in the AI chip market that could help it sustain solid growth rates for a long time to come. Of course, buying just Broadcom and hoping that it will help you become a millionaire isn't a smart thing to do, as any cracks in the company's growth story could send the stock plunging. However, Broadcom looks like an ideal pick for investors aiming to construct a diversified million-dollar portfolio. Let's look at the reasons why. Broadcom released its fiscal 2025 second-quarter results (for the three months ended May 4) on June 5. Its revenue jumped 20% year over year to $15 billion, while adjusted earnings shot up at a stronger pace of 43%. AI played a key role in driving this robust growth. The company's AI revenue jumped 46% year over year to $4.4 billion, which means it's now getting almost 30% of its top line by supplying chips powering this technology. What's worth noting here is that Broadcom is anticipating further acceleration in its AI revenue in the current quarter, projecting $5.1 billion in revenue. That would be an improvement of 60% from the year-ago period. What's more, Broadcom CEO Hock Tan indicated on the latest earnings conference call that the company's AI revenue growth trajectory is sustainable. Tan remarked that the growth rate Broadcom is witnessing so far in fiscal 2025 "will presumably continue." That's not surprising, considering that Broadcom is now seeing stronger demand for its custom AI chips (known as XPUs) for inference purposes. Management says that the three existing customers who are deploying its custom chips in data centers for AI training remain firm in their infrastructure investment plans, despite the economic uncertainty created by the tariff war. At the same time, those three customers "are doubling down on inference in order to monetize their platforms," which is why the company anticipates "an acceleration of XPU demand into the back half of 2026 to meet urgent demand for inference on top of the demand we have indicated from training." A big reason why Broadcom should be able to sustain its impressive AI revenue growth rate is because of the massive addressable opportunity worth $60 billion to $90 billion that it sees for its AI chips by fiscal 2027 based on the three customers it's currently serving. Given that the company has generated $13.6 billion in revenue from sales of its AI chips in the first three quarters of the year, it still has a lot of room to grow in this market. That's especially true considering that another four hyperscalers are in negotiations with Broadcom for manufacturing custom AI processors. As a result, Broadcom may be sitting on a much larger AI-related addressable market, which explains why analysts have raised their growth expectations for the company following its latest results. Broadcom is trading at just under 38 times forward earnings as of this writing following its recent surge. While that may seem expensive at first, we have seen that the company's outstanding earnings growth justifies its rich valuation. Another important thing worth noting is that Broadcom's price/earnings-to-growth ratio (PEG ratio) based on its projected earnings growth for the next five years stands at just 0.66, according to Yahoo! Finance. The PEG ratio is a forward-looking valuation metric calculated by dividing a company's price-to-earnings ratio by its estimated annual earnings growth rate for the next five years. A reading of less than 1 means that the stock in question is undervalued, and Broadcom's multiple is well below that mark. All this makes Broadcom a solid growth stock to buy right now, since it seems built for terrific long-term upside and has the potential to contribute positively toward a million-dollar portfolio.

Messi shows glimpses of his genius on Fifa's stage of fakery in Club World Cup opener
Lionel Messi during Inter Miami's Club World Cup match against Al Ahly. 'Watching him you got that feeling of a truly great footballer who can still see it all, but just can't call the shapes into being.' Lionel Messi during Inter Miami's Club World Cup match against Al Ahly. 'Watching him you got that feeling of a truly great footballer who can still see it all, but just can't call the shapes into being.' Photograph: SportsWell, this was at least a first. Gianni was right on that front. On a clammy, boisterous, vaguely hallucinogenic night at the Hard Rock Stadium, the opening act of Fifa's billion dollar death star, the newly bulked and tanned Club World Cup, did produce something genuinely new. This was surely the first major sporting event where the opening ceremony was infinitely more entertaining, and indeed comprehensible as a basic human activity, than the sporting spectacle that followed. By the end the best team in Africa, Al Ahly, had drawn 0-0 with a largely incoherent Inter Miami, a team that looked in the first half like people who had a dim idea what this sport is meant to look like, but who were also struggling through a terrible wall-eyed hangover to remember which way is forward. Advertisement The second half was better, mainly because some element of the Lionel Messi identity began to assert itself, a muscle memory of genius, like watching the aged Frank Sinatra still tootling out That's Life on stage in Vegas, still drawing huge gales of applause for basically nodding a lot and pointing at the crowd. Related: Borrowed culture and a plasticine burger – welcome to the Club World Cup and almost-football | Barney Ronay This was the only significant emotion here: a deep sadness at seeing this spectacle play out, the post Messi-Messi, wheeled on to this stage of fakery, an instrument of sporting beauty weaponised in his dotage to promote a power grab. And watching this you really got the scale of Fifa's act of deception, its betrayal of sport, the cynicism of its methods. Because everybody loves Messi, because there is a hard-wired emotional response, because you basically cannot resist. We will bolt the aged Messi to the front of our project, will play with your feelings, will in effect produce a kind of targeted sporting crystal meth. Advertisement Actually that sounds a bit too exciting. The football here was largely abysmal. Does this matter? This thing isn't really built to be a robust sporting entity. It is simply product, an attempt to capture a global market. This is Fifa enabling the foreign policy aims of Saudi Arabia, sticking a flag in the middle of the world's greatest popular culture megaphone. It's the projection of a single essentially random Swiss administrator. Although, to be fair, lots of things that were supposed to be bad were actually fine here. The talk of half-empty stadiums always seemed a bit over the top. The Fifa marketing machine is a juggernaut. Americans are good at turning up to stuff. And mainly it was never going to be empty because Messi was here, Miami loves Messi, and America loves stars. The Hard Rock is a castle-on-the-hill kind of structure, with its crisp white flying roof, dumped down in a vast expanse of shimmering tarmac. By the time the opening ceremonials came around the stands were pretty much full. The great Sir David appeared, looking graver now, hands folded like the fourth earl of Sandwich, producing one of those expensive-looking regal waves, not really a wave at all, just a power-flex. A DJ played club tunes, which was fun and infectious and gleefully received, not because of Fifa or football but because this is Miami and something about the air, the heat, the light just makes this a place of fun and pleasure and show, and because Miami is basically full of beautiful glowing people who look like they're probably eternal. Advertisement The ceremony was genuinely good, not the stiff, mannered stuff these affairs often dish up, but loads of people dancing and playing horns and looking like they actually enjoy doing this. A terrifying horror movie-style voice shouted 'take it to the worrrlllldd', in a manner that suggested its owner was in the process of being expertly throttled. Messi was last out on to the pitch. Everyone went predictably nuts, a shared static field of excitement, event glamour, the sense of being present at some kind of celebrity miracle. He started in a non-position, just walking about vaguely, like a man having a stroll while listening to a podcast. Messi does, though, still have the shuffle the little switch, the groove, the music in his head. Watching him you got that feeling of a truly great footballer who can still see it all, but just can't call the shapes into being, Mozart with tinnitus, Hemingway staggering about the Florida Keys in his soggy late days, still feeling his own greatness, still the matador, even while he's sinking pisco sours in a crab shack There was something frustrating, and even slightly offensive about seeing Messi like this. It expresses perfectly the deeply manipulative nature of this event, of owners and political interests who will take that thing you love and use it to move the world around, who know you simply cannot resist. That thing that gives you pleasure and feels like freedom and joy? We will inject it into your eyes like a forced stimulant, a kind of footballing pornography. Advertisement Al Ahly should have scored at least twice in the opening 20 minutes. They missed a penalty. The YouTube overlord IShowSpeed appeared in the half-time break and prodded a ball toward the goal a few times trailed by a man with a camera coiled into a furious crouch, as though preserving the last recorded sighting of the snow leopard. Related: Raids and fear cast a large shadow over Club World Cup's big launch Messi woke up in the second half. Miami were better. They might have won, or at least scored. But a goalless draw felt right. The people in the stadium were the only winners here, in a city that just loves its nights. Otherwise Saturday in America was a day for a divisive, autocratic president to stage his own hugely overblown and narcissistic Grand Parade. It was in the end a pathetic spectacle, and in every sense of the word, the ghost of something great and pure and much-loved, out there being sold back to you like an empty replica shirt.
