Coked-up joyrider fell asleep at wheel before ploughing into taxi
Josh McBride - who was 16 at the time - fell asleep and drifted into the opposing carriageway before smashing into the cab being driven by Garry McInnes. A 16-year-old joyrider fell asleep at the wheel after taking cocaine and seriously injured three people after crashing head-on into a taxi. Schoolboy Josh McBride, 19, nodded off and drifted into the opposing carriageway before smashing into the cab being driven by Garry McInness. A heroic witness arrived at the scene and dragged three of the victims from the blazing wreckaghe of the vehicles after initially thinking they were dead. A passing fire crew - on their way to a training exercise - were able to bring the burning cars under control as medics took the victims to hospital. Dundee Sheriff Court was told that unqualified McBride had driven his friend's VW Golf across the country to try and stay overnight at a family caravan in St Andrews. But when they couldn't access the caravan, McBride and his friends spent the night sleeping in the car before setting off to drive to Livingston the next morning. McBride, Hamilton Gardens, Armadale, admitted driving dangerously and under the influence of drugs in Main Street, Dairsie, Fife, on 2 October 2022. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

He admitted seriously injuring Gordon Docherty, Garry McInness and Joseph Brownlie by falling asleep, driving on the wrong side of the road, and crashing into a VW Touran taxi. Fiscal depute Emma Farmer told the court: "The accused was 16 and at school at the time. He did not hold a driving licence. He and Joseph Brownlie went out in the early hours." She said they got in the third person's car with them and decided to drive to St Andrews. At the time of the crash McBride had three passengers. "They were unable to gain access to the caravan. They attended the beach and slept in the vehicle. At 7.30 am they woke up in the car. Mr Brownlie asked if McBride would drive to Livingston." At one point in the journey, Mr Brownlie became aware of the vehicle crossing the centre of the road and he shouted at McBride but got no reaction as he was asleep. "Mr Brownlie grabbed the steering wheel to try and avoid a collision. The Golf was observed to drift over into the opposite carriageway and into the path of Mr McInness' vehicle. "There was extensive damage to the front of both vehicles. A witness looked at Mr McInness and thought he was dead. The vehicle was going on fire. "The witness also found two males on top of each other in the rear footwell and he thought they were dead. A Scottish Fire and Rescue Service crew were passing on their way to a training exercise. "They assisted with the extinction of the fire before it took hold. McBride was identified as the driver. He provided a positive saliva test for cocaine." The court was told Mr Brownlie sustained multiple spinal injuries, while Mr Docherty had a fractured collarbone as well as whiplash injuries and bruising. Mr McInness, who had no memory after picking up his fare in Cupar, sustained several fractures and a torn spleen and was unable to leave the house for two months after the crash. He was only able to return to work in an office-based role at the taxi firm, and later had to give up a job as a bus driver because of the anxiety he suffered from. Sheriff Gregor Murray imposed an interim driving ban on McBride and granted him bail while pre-sentence background reports are prepared.

Lynx star Kayla McBride to replace injured Rhyne Howard at WNBA All-Star Game
When the 2025 WNBA All-Star rosters were first announced, many people considered Minnesota Lynx guard Kayla McBride one of the biggest snubs. The veteran guard is averaging over 14 points per game on the season with a solid 37.9% 3-point field goal percentage. The three-time All-Star is also shooting an absurd 94.3% from the charity stripe. As a pivotal player on a Minnesota team with the best record in the WNBA (19-4), many fans couldn't comprehend why McBride was left off this year's All-Star Game roster. Well, she's getting her chance now. After a knee injury sidelined Atlanta Dream star Rhyne Howard, McBride has been named as a replacement, joining Napheesa Collier's team drafted on July 8.

2025 Arizona Cardinals training camp roster preview: TE Trey McBride
We will preview every player on the Cardinals roster leading up to training camp. This is about TE Trey McBride. The Arizona Cardinals report to training camp on July 22 and begin the process of preparing for the regular season, forming the roster and determining starting jobs and roles on the team. Leading up to the start of camp, we will take a look at every player on the offseason roster, their background, their contract, their play in 2024, questions they face and their roster outlook. This focuses on tight end Trey McBride. Trey McBride background, 2024 season McBride enters his fourth NFL season, all with the Cardinals. He was a second-round pick in 2022 out of Colorado State. In three years, he has become one of the premier pass-catching tight ends in the NFL. After 29 receptions for 291 yards as a rookie, he set the franchise single-season record for receptions by a tight end with 81 in 2023 to go with 825 yards and three touchdowns. He bested that in 2024, catching 111 passes, setting a new record, for 1,146 yards (the second-highest single-season total by a tight end) and two touchdowns. He was selected as a Pro Bowler for the first time in his career. Trey McBride 2025 contract details, cap hit This offseason, he signed a four-year, $76 million contract extension, becoming the highest-paid tight end in league history, at least for a couple of weeks until the 49ers' George Kittle signed a larger deal. He got a $16.75 million signing bonus and will make a fully guaranteed salary of more than $5.4 million in 2025. His cap hit will be less than $9.6 million. Questions he faces, roster outlook There is no question about his roster outlook. He is a lock for the roster and is the unquestioned TE1 in the offense. The only questions he faces for the upcoming season are 1) can he keep up the rate of his production and 2) can he take the next step and produce touchdowns? He only has six receiving touchdowns in his career and only had two last season. He did rush for a score and recover a fumble in the end zone for another, but to be one of the greats, he has to find his way more consistently into the end zone.

NFL TE rankings: Coaches, execs, scouts put Arizona Cardinals' Trey McBride in top 5
McBride an honorable-mention player last offseason. Now, coaches, scouts and execs rank him as a top-5 TE. Arizona Cardinals fans know how good tight end Trey McBride. After all, he did catch 111 passes last season. He broke his own receptions record for a single season as a tight end and came close to setting the franchise single-season record period (DeAndre Hopkins' 115 catches in 2020 set the mark). But how good does the league think he is? He made his first Pro Bowl this past season. ESPN's Jeremy Fowler polled coaches, scouts and executives about who they believe are the top 10 players at each position. Let's see where McBride lands. NFL TE rankings: Trey McBride, Arizona Cardinals McBride is fourth in the top 10, behind Las Vegas' Brock Bowers, San Francisco's George Kittle and Detroit's Sam LaPorta. He received at least one vote as the No. 1 tight end and was in the top 10 in every ballot. "Best receiving tight end out there," an NFL coordinator said. "He's a hard cover even for elite corners." McBride's jump from last year's honorable mention status to the top four is sizable, but he was the only tight end not named Kittle or Bowers to receive a first-place vote. "Lack of touchdowns hurts him a bit for me if we're talking about top-five guys," an NFL personnel director said about McBride, who has six total touchdowns in three seasons. McBride actually has more than six total touchdowns. He has six receiving touchdowns. He rushed for a touchdown last season and recovered a fumble in the end zone for a touchdown as well, so he has scored eight total in his career. Now, those eight career total touchdowns equal Kittle's touchdown receptions in 2024, but Bowers had only five touchdowns last season, compared to McBride's four total scores. Does McBride need to score more touchdowns? Yes. Last season, on several end-zone targets, Murray either missed him or McBride didn't make a catch he would expect himself to make. That was fluky. Now, considering the strength of the Cardinals' running game and the presence of Marvin Harrison Jr., we might not see McBride get double-digit scores, but that is really the next step for him. He is an elite pass-catching tight end. He is a capable blocker. If he scores touchdowns, that takes him to the next level.

NFL stats: Trey McBride finished No. 4 in total receptions in 2024
Arizona Cardinals TE Trey McBride is was very difficult to cover in 2024 Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride totaled 111 receptions in 2024. While McBride only registered two receiving touchdowns the entire season, his dominance as a pass catcher and blocker shouldn't be overstated. Just ask quarterback Kyler Murray, who targeted McBride a total of 147 times through 16 games played last season. McBride is a pure luxury for the team, especially on bootleg passing and play-action play concepts. Specifically, McBride excels when the Cardinals offense is operating out of 11, 12, and 13 personnel. These personnel packages force the opposing defense to deploy more linebackers into their packages and allow for McBride to line up versus defenders without the size and speed needed to inhibit him. McBride's agility and stature pose as a superior threat to opposing teams in the NFC, especially the Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks, who have been looking to revamp the front seven on their rosters. For now, NFL defensive coordinators know that when McBride lines up on offense, they better have an adequate defender able to keep him at bay. McBride will only improve in his fourth NFL season and third year with offensive coordinator Drew Petzing. Certainly, Petzing has likely taken note of just how effective and dominant a player he has in his Pro Bowl tight end.
