INDIANAPOLIS — New Cleveland Browns coach Todd Monken raved about the "elite" skills he’s seen from Shedeur Sanders. Only he hasn’t seen enough to hand him the starting quarterback job. In fact, Monken declared it an "open competition" for that job, presumably between Sanders, Dillon Gabriel and Deshaun Watson — and possibly even others. It’s the kind of messy, almost untenable situation the Browns have dealt with at quarterback since […]

College basketball fans were treated to a loaded slate of games to begin the week, as the ACC made a statement with several notable results. No. 18 North Carolina opened the week with a 77-74 win over No. 24 Louisville, while No. 11 Virginia delivered a dominant victory over NC State on Tuesday night. Duke added to the league’s strong showing, routing Notre Dame 100-56 — the Irish’s worst home […]

Fans were treated to a loaded slate of men's college basketball games on Wednesday, which led to several notable changes in FOX Sports bracket forecaster Mike DeCourcy’s latest NCAA Tournament projections. Most notably, the Miami Hurricanes jumped up to a No. 7 seed, while Saint Louis fell to the 8-line. UCLA ascended to the 9-line after an impressive win over Nebraska late Tuesday night, while Texas fell to the 11-line […]

Will Power just looked at the question on the sheet in front of him and just laughed. "Ooooohhh," he said, followed by a word not suitable for print. The question was about him. When the 25 full-time INDYCAR drivers met with FOX Sports last month, we gave them a six-question survey to fill out. They didn't have to write in any answers — they just put a mark by which […]

Deion Sanders is in an improved place with his health, but the Colorado Buffaloes head coach was previously in a more ominous place with his leg, according to Colorado vascular surgeon Don Jacobs. "I was really worried about you in Fort Worth [Colorado played TCU on Oct. 4 of last season]. Watching that game and seeing you hurt, I was worried. … Yeah, I know that pain hurts, and it […]

INDIANAPOLIS — The future of the NFL will be front and center in Indianapolis at this week's Scouting Combine. But before the prospects take the field in the underwear Olympics and try to boost their draft stock, let's take some time to learn what the stars of tomorrow think about the NFL and the college game.

An unmistakable sense of grandeur radiated from Capital One Arena on Saturday when then-No. 1 Michigan battled then-No. 3 Duke in a rare, late-season non-conference game that felt like a legitimate Final Four preview. The former arrived in Washington, D.C., having blitzed through the regular season with just a single loss, boggling analytical minds across the sport with a profile of advanced metrics that is among the best in modern […]

INDIANAPOLIS — Fernando Mendoza might not be the prototypical quarterback that we're used to seeing get drafted with the No. 1 overall pick. Yet, the Indiana quarterback is already the presumptive No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, and some people around the league clearly see why that's the case. An NFL scout told me that Mendoza has all the tools, but his ability to handle adverse situations […]

INDIANAPOLIS — The free-agent market for running backs was already a bad one. Now it’s going to be even worse. The New York Jets are making sure of that by effectively taking Breece Hall off the market, as general manager Darren Mougey promised Tuesday the 24-year-old would be back with the team in 2026.
