BREAKING: 49ers Trade For Elite Pass-Rusher
BREAKING: 49ers Trade For Elite Pass-Rusher originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The San Francisco 49ers are getting the best the New York Jets can offer. First, the Niners hired former Jets' head coach Robert Saleh to be their defensive coordinator. And on Friday afternoon, San Francisco traded for one of the players who thrived under him in New York. Advertisement According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the 49ers are working to finalize a trade to acquire edge-rusher Bryce Huff, who spent last season with the Philadelphia Eagles. The deal is expected to include San Francisco sending a "mid-round draft pick" to the Eagles in exchange. The trade cannot and would not be processed until after June 1. But both sides are working to make it happen, and Huff already has reworked his contract to help facilitate the deal. For the trade to be get finalized next week, the Eagles restructured Huff's contract. He was set to make about $17 million fully guaranteed this season from Philadelphia, but the Eagles now will take on only $9.05 million in salary, leaving the 49ers responsible for the remaining $7.95 million due to Huff this season. Under Saleh in 2023, Huff had a career-high 10 sacks and 68 pressures on just 312 pass rush snaps for the Jets. New York traded him to the Eagles last offseason, but his production plummeted. Huff played only 12 games for the Super Bowl champs, starting six. He made 13 tackles, four quarterback hits and only 2.5 sacks. Saleh and the Niners are convinced Huff still has a lot left in the tank. Huff turned 27 last month. Advertisement Huff could line up opposite Nick Bosa to give head coach Kyle Shanahan one of the best 1-2 pass-rush punches in the league. San Francisco also drafted Georgia defensive lineman Mykel Williams with the 11th overall pick in last April's draft.

Government advisor: Iraq ranks third in the Arab world in terms of bank cards
Baghdad-INA The Prime Minister's financial advisor, Mazhar Mohammed Salih, confirmed on Saturday that Iraq's ranking as third in the Arab world in the number of bank cards issued is an important indicator of the development of the financial sector and the growing community and international confidence in government measures. Saleh told the Iraqi News Agency (INA): "Iraq will fully enter the era of electronic collection by the middle of this year,this will strengthen the confidence of financial institutions and global investment banks that Iraq is moving towards a more transparent and professional economy, using advanced methods that ensure economic prosperity." He added that "electronic collection will also give the impression that the Iraqi financial environment is now more prepared to welcome financial technology solutions and investments in the digital banking and insurance sectors in an attractive and accelerated manner." Saleh noted that "this step reflects the strategic government effort to modernize the financial infrastructure and facilitate cashless transactions." He continued, "Iraq ranked third in the Arab world in the number of bank cards issued, which is an important indicator of the development of the financial sector and the growing community and international confidence in government measures." He indicated that "the government is actively pursuing digital financial transformation to achieve advanced levels of sustainable development, in accordance with the indicators of the National Development Plan 2024-2025 and the current government program." He explained that "the progress achieved by Iraq in the use of digital banking payments undoubtedly indicates the rapid strategic progress achieved in spreading the use of bank cards and the beginning of a structural transformation of the Iraqi economy towards a digital economy." Saleh stated that "utilizing modern technology will enable Iraq to achieve qualitative leaps in financial inclusion, maximize added value in the national economy, reduce poverty and unemployment, and facilitate broader economic reforms." He noted that "this is also a major success for the government's e-governance program and the implementation of an integrated and fundamental digital infrastructure, paving the way for the transition to a digital economy and broad financial inclusion," he continued, "This progress also represents an important foundation for building an integrated digital market in Iraq, where the banking infrastructure becomes capable of handling both international and domestic electronic transfers." He added that "electronic transfers will serve digital financing operations for small projects and develop electronic payment and tax collection systems." He pointed out that "the move toward a carbon market as a new investment tool relies on electronic or digital platforms," while emphasizing that "the increasing number of bank cards means a wider segment of citizens are entering the formal financial and banking system by opening bank accounts, which facilitates the expansion of the use of mobile banking services, digital wallets, and electronic payments for bills, purchases, and other services, in addition to activating electronic government services such as salary payments, support, and social care."

Man who faked marriage denies election death threats
A chicken shop owner has denied threatening to kill a federal election candidate as questions are raised about why the man remains in Australia. Over a decade ago, Musher Saleh had his permanent residency revoked after immigration officials uncovered false marriage claims. The 43-year-old is now accused of sending death threats to Australian Migrants candidate Jamal Daoud at his Liverpool office in Sydney's southwest on May 1 and 2. The Merrylands man appeared before Parramatta Local Court on Wednesday where he pleaded not guilty to one count of using a carriage service to menace, harass or offend. "I didn't," he told reporters outside court when asked whether he had made death threats. "I never do that." Mr Daoud told AAP that his office had been called repeatedly by someone speaking in Arabic in the final days of the election. The migration agent claimed Saleh told him something like "I know where you are, I will come and get you and I will show you what I can do to you". "In Arabic, 'I will get you' in this way - it is a death threat," Mr Daoud told AAP. He said he would send a letter to Immigration Minister Tony Burke to see why Saleh still remained in Australia despite his past. Entering Australia on a business visa in 2001, Saleh was granted permanent residency in May 2013, according to a 2018 decision from the Administrative Appeals Tribunal. The Palestinian man had his permanent residency revoked in August 2017 after immigration officials learned he had supplied false details about a claimed ongoing marriage to an Australian citizen. Two months later, he purchased a fried chicken shop in Auburn in Sydney's west and was promoting it on social media until 2024. Saleh failed to notify immigration that his marriage had broken down before being granted residency and that he had formed a new relationship with a Norwegian national instead, the tribunal found. In upholding the decision to revoke his permanent residency, the tribunal found Saleh had "consistently been untruthful" and made "deliberate falsehoods" to gain Australian citizenship. "The applicant's interactions with the department have been dictated by what he desired to gain and not by what his obligations required him to do," tribunal senior member Kira Raif wrote. "The applicant appears to have very little remorse about his actions." Ms Raif agreed that the Merrylands man would experience hardship if his visa was revoked and he returned to Gaza, but noted that he could apply to live in Norway as his partner had citizenship there. On Wednesday, Mr Burke did not respond by deadline to AAP's questions about why Saleh still resided in Australia. Mr Daoud ran for independent party Australian Migrants in Werriwa, Sydney during the 2025 federal election after standing for Clive Palmer's United Australia Party at the 2022 election.
