49ers DE Tarron Jackson hospitalized after camp collision

Reuters5 days ago
July 27 - San Francisco 49ers defensive end Tarron Jackson was taken to a local hospital for evaluation after a collision during a training camp practice Sunday.
Per reporters at the practice, Jackson was blocked by an offensive tackle, went to the ground and did not move for a few moments before he was able to move his hands. His teammates took a knee as he was tended to, and Jackson eventually had to be taken off on a backboard.
Niners coach Kyle Shanahan said after practice that Jackson was conscious, talking and had movement in his extremities.
"We were close to him so we could hear him talking and we could see everything moving," Shanahan said. "I just told the guys that, which eases them up a little bit with the biggest fears and asked them if they were OK to continue to go. They all yelled yes and we finished the last period."

Scottie Scheffler receives response from Tom Brady as NFL legend doesn't hold back

After Scottie Scheffler's recent comments about his almost indifferent feelings towards winning majors, Tom Brady has offered his thoughts on the World No. 1 NFL icon Tom Brady has questioned Scottie Scheffler about why the golf star cannot balance being a world- class golfer with being a good parent. Scheffler, 29, recently provoked a debate after winning the Open. ‌ The World No. 1 recently admitted that, in his mind, the joy of winning a major only lasts a small amount of time. He also said he is more focused on being a good father than being the greatest golfer on the planet. ‌ However, Brady, who won seven Super Bowls over the course of his career, challenged Scheffler's brutally honest comments to the media, while offering a peak into his own mentality during his career, which ended in February 2023. ‌ In his weekly newsletter, Brady said: "As part of his answer at Media Day, for example, Scottie said he'd rather be a better father and husband than a good golfer. And my question is, 'Why are those mutually exclusive?' "Sure, they're different blocks on the pyramid, but they're part of the same pyramid. They're connected! For instance, I think part of being a great father is being a great example of doing what it takes to take care of your family. I chose to do it by playing football. "My dedication to the sport, the hours of practice, the moments when I was laser focused, those were times when I believe I was doing the best possible thing for my family and my kids. "By prioritising my profession and teaching, by example, what it takes to be really good at your job, what it takes to follow through on commitments, what it takes to be a great teammate and showing them, also by example, that work is a big part of all of our lives. "Remember, your children are watching everything. They see what you do in every aspect of your life and how you do it. Reading bedtime stories and helping them with homework are not the only ways to be a great parent.' ‌ Scheffler moved himself into the headlines with his comments by saying the joy of winning a major "only lasts a few minutes" and the life of a golfer is "fulfilling from the sense of accomplishment, but it's not fulfilling from a sense of the deepest places of your heart." The four-time major winner has since admitted he regretted making those comments after his triumph at Portrush. Speaking on the Pardon My Take podcast, Scheffler said: "I remember walking out of that room and I'm looking at Blake, my manager, I've known since I was like 10 years old, and I'm like, 'Gosh, why did I start ranting like that.' "This is why I don't say anything, things get taken out of context. I'm just like, 'I don't know why I did that, I hope that made a little bit of sense to some people.' He was like, 'Nah it's alright, let's go.'" He also came close to making a U-turn on his comments about the joy of winning a major, adding: "But the feeling of happiness and satisfaction, being able to accomplish a lifelong dream will last for me for a long time. "It's a pretty amazing thing for me to be able to accomplish something like that, and it's something that I'm very grateful for. But,, it's not the only thing in my life. Striving to win golf tournaments as the only thing is going to lead to a lifetime of disappointment basically."

World 100m champion Sha'Carri Richardson arrested on alleged domestic violence charge

Reigning 100m world champion Sha'Carri Richardson was arrested last week for allegedly assaulting her boyfriend at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Richardson was charged on Sunday with fourth degree domestic violence, according to the police report obtained by The Associated Press (AP). On Thursday, she ran in the opening round the women's 100m at US track and field championships in Eugene, Oregon, before withdrawing from the semi-finals. She has an automatic bye to the world championships in September in Tokyo as the defending champion. 'USATF is aware of the reports and is not commenting on this matter,' USA Track and Field said in a statement. Richardson's agent did not immediately reply to an email request for comment by AP. The police report said an officer at the airport was notified by a Transportation Security Administration supervisor of a disturbance between Richardson and her boyfriend, sprinter Christian Coleman. The report said Richardson was detained on Sunday 27 July and released the following day. In the police report, the officer said: 'I was told Coleman did not want to participate any further in the investigation and declined to be a victim.' Richardson won the 100m at the 2023 world championships in Budapest and took silver at the Paris Games last summer. She also helped the 4x100m relay team to an Olympic gold.
