• Hamilton, 24, was his first Team All Pro in 2023 and his second Team All Pro last year, earning Pro Bowl honors.
• Hamilton plays everywhere, including safety, cornerbacks, linebackers, pass rushers, and a big part of what makes Baltimore’s defense extremely dangerous. He is the only defensive back with at least five intercepts and five sacks over the past two seasons.

This is not ideal. This is Joel Collie, a former NFL agent Latest take on the situation.

Also, on Wednesday, the NFL reported a 6 Game Suspension In chief Wide receiver Laci Rice.

• The suspension comes from Rice’s involvement in multicar crashes that injured multiple people In March 2024, he escaped from the scene. Rice pleaded guilty to two three-fold felony charges – a crash involving a highway race that causes serious injuries and bodily injury – sentenced to 30 days in prison.

🏈College Football QB Power Rankings, Plus Preseason 2026 NFL Mock

The quarterback made the world round, starting from the first week of college football tonight, David Cobb produced the first one College Football QB Power Ranking No of the season.

However, this is more than just a power ranking. David has expanded it all the way to FBS’ top 50 quarterback. This is the top 5:

1. “Cade Klubnik, Clemson – He has commanded the attack and Clemson’s best receiving corps perfectly for many years. ”
2. “Garrett Nussmeier, LSU- Nussmeier is the return leader in college football after exceeding 4,000 yards in 2024. ”
3. “Drew Aral of Pennsylvania – Allah has officially transformed from developing talent into a sure star. ”
4. “Archmanning, Texas – The occasional glimpses we saw suggest that Manning is ready to live up to the family’s reputation. ”
5. “Julian Sain, Ohio – Receiver and Jeremiah Smith and Kernel Tate The target should be a smooth transition from redshirt apprentice to starters. ”

I love Manning, who says that Texas is coming in a row here ahead of the No. 1 Texas, which will visit No. 3 Ohio this weekend.

But I also like the fact that quarterbacks have a lot of powerhouses that are far deeper than usual on this list. Alabama’s Ty Simpson You barely land in the top 20 and have to do lots of scrolls to find Georgia Gunner Stockton and Our Virgin‘s CJ Car.

Still, it’s the quarterback in the rankings of Mike Renner’s No. 1 David. Preseason 2026 NFL Mock Draft.

1. “Browns-QB Fernando Mendoza, Indiana: The Browns feel that Fernando Mendoza is the perfect fit for coaches as they almost certainly become quarterbacks if they choose first overall and Archmanning is expected to return to school. Kevin Stefanskithe offense (two NFL coaches of the year should be held). He has a plus NFL arm paired with quick decision making and tight window accuracy. He will have the chance to shine on a bigger stage this year in Indiana after carrying Cal for the past two seasons. ”

Also, no. 2, no. 3, no. 10, No. There’s a quarterback at 13, only two of them are in David’s top five.

Why ceagegaganBradley doesn’t choose himself for Ryder Cup should motivate Team USA

Two years ago Keegan Bradley It was devastated when he wasn’t Team USA Ryder Cup captain pick. This time, I was given the opportunity to become America’s first captain since then. Arnold Palmer 1963, Bradley didn’t choose himself, but instead chose it. …

• Justin Thomas
• Collin Morikawa
• Ben Griffin
• Cameron Young
• Patrick Cantray
• Sam Burns

The other golfers were playing was a factor in Bradley’s reasoning. Griffin has won two PGA Tours this year, and Young has also won one, which has been on fire recently. Cantray, Young, Burns, Thomas and Griffin all ended in the top 10 of last week’s Tour Championship. Cantrey (T2) and Young (T4) are now in the top five. Morikawa has been struggling with a distinctive struggle this season, but has gained experience with the Ryder Cup.

Thomas I praised Bradley’s decisionand Patrick McDonald says Bradley made it. Selfish choice to put your team above you.

• McDonald’s: “Bradley played enough to join the 2023 team. He played well enough to join the 2025 teamHe also won two wins in the season and finished 11th in the rankings. The only source of information telling him not to play was the six inches between his ears. It is a self-interest-free act that is not normally seen in individualized sports, especially golf. …Bradley believes that the best opportunity for the Americans to win is for him to direct his actions without having to get the club. His belief and trust in his talent only inspires the 12 players he will lead him into the battle. ”
