Wisconsin alumnus included in ESPN's top off-ball linebacker ranking for 2025 NFL season
Former Wisconsin football standout Zack Baun was included in ESPN's list of the top 10 off-ball linebackers ahead of the 2025 NFL season earlier this month. Baun is the third former Badger to receive a position on the outlet's preseason positional rankings, joining two-time Doak Walker Award winner Jonathan Taylor (running backs) and defensive legend T.J. Watt (edge rushers). The off-ball linebacker list is powered by a feedback from dozens of NFL league executives, coaches and scouts, which ESPN then parlays into a top 10 ranking based on their vote totals, composite average position and information from interviews. Following that method, the outlet listed Baun as the No. 3 off-ball linebacker in the NFL ahead of this coming season. At No. 3, Baun is sandwiched between Baltimore Ravens superstar Roquan Smith (No. 2) and Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl winner Nick Bolton (No. 4). Four-time first-team All-Pro Fred Warner earned the top spot, followed by Washington Commanders' rising star Frankie Luvu (No. 5), Chicago Bear Tremaine Edmunds (No. 6), Buccaneers veteran Lavonte David (No. 7), second-year Dallas Cowboy DeMarvarion Overshown (No. 8), Denver Bronco Dre Greenlaw (No. 9) and New York Jet Quincy Williams (No. 10). ProFootballFocus' list of the top 32 linebackers ahead of 2025 had Baun at No. 2 behind only Warner, who is widely considered the best linebacker of his decade. Entering his second year in Philadelphia, it appears as if Baun is poised to become a household name at this stage of his career. The Wisconsin native's numbers convey the same message. In 16 starts for the Eagles, who hoisted the Lombardi Trophy in a dominant win over the Chiefs this winter, the former Badger registered 151 tackles, 11 for loss, five quarterback hits, 3 1/2 sacks, four pass deflections, five forced fumbles and an interception. By the season's end, Baun was named a first-team All-Pro, a Pro Bowler and a finalist for the 2024 NFL Defensive Player of the Year Award alongside T.J. Watt, Myles Garrett, Trey Hendrickson and Patrick Surtain II (winner). In the postseason, Baun was responsible for 33 total tackles (20 solo), two tackles for loss, two fumble recoveries, two interceptions and one forced fumble across four playoff games. In Super Bowl 59, he notched a team-best seven tackles (three solo) and a crucial interception on three-time Super Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes. Baun's explosive year led to a three-year, $51 million contract extension with Philadelphia this offseason. Baun's Eagles will begin their season against the Dallas Cowboys on Sept. 4 at Lincoln Financial Field.

Caitlin Clark breaks own record with one-of-a-kind rookie card auction sell
Caitlin Clark continued her record-setting ways this week. As the Indiana Fever star guard continues to navigate back from a right groin injury, Clark had reason to smile on Thursday night. In the latest illustration of her superstardom, Clark reset her own off-the-court record. On Thursday, one of Clark's rookie cards sold for $660,000 on the Fanatics Collect auction site. It's by far the most ever paid for a women's sports card and it's nearly twice the amount garnered by the previous record holder, which was similarly a Clark rookie card. The new top seller is the 2024 Panini Instant Rookie Royalty WNBA Flawless Platinum Caitlin Clark Logowoman. It features a photo of Clark and a game-worn patch from her Fever uniform. The 1-of-1 numbered, autographed rookie card also has the written message "769 points and counting," referencing Clark's WNBA rookie record number of points scored. This record-setting card garnered 26 bids after extended bidding began at $336,000. It resets the record books after Clark's autographed 2024 Panini Prizm WNBA Gold Vinyl 1/1 was auctioned by Goldin for a then-record $366,000. Before that, the record amount garnered by a women's sports card was the $266,400 paid three years ago for a signed 2003 Serena Williams card.

Marcus Smart joins a long list of Boston players who ended up spending time with an enemy
It began, of course, with the Yankees . Since changing their nickname from the Highlanders in 1913, the team had finished seventh, sixth, fifth, fourth, sixth, fourth, and third, and had yet to win an American League pennant. What compounded the issue was Red Sox owner Harry Frazee also subsequently shipping the likes of Herb Pennock, Jumping Joe Dugan, Waite Hoyt, Everett Scott, and Sam Jones to New York, where the ex-Sox helped establish the preeminent franchise in baseball for the rest of the 20th century. Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up You also may have heard something about Advertisement One deal that seemed fairly innocuous at the time was the 1972 swap of Red Sox lefthanded reliever Sparky Lyle for Yankees utility infielder Danny Cater and a player to be named later, who turned out to be shortstop Mario Guerrero. Lyle would twice lead the league in saves as a Yankee, and even won a surprising Cy Young Award in 1977, when he went 13-5 with a 2.17 ERA. Cater was what we used to call a spray hitter, whose claim to fame was finishing second to Carl Yastrzemski in the 1968 batting race with an average of .290. He did hit .313 in 1973 with little power, while playing in just 63 games. The great Peter Gammons identified one of his hits as 'Cater's 1,011th career chalk-line double.' Advertisement Now we're getting serious. Roger Clemens and The horseback celebration of Wade Boggs further stung on the occasion of the Yankees returning to the World Series winners' circle in 1996. RON FREHM In the middle of all this there also was a Yankee faux pas. The Yankees had a young outfielder named Jackie Jensen, who got into 108 games in a three-year span before they shipped him to the Washington Senators. The Red Sox acquired him for Mickey McDermott and Tom Umphlett, and from 1954-59 he averaged 111 RBIs per season while leading the league three times. He also was the 1958 MVP. Even the vaunted Yankees could have used someone like that. Sadly, his career was aborted because of a fear of flying. As far as the Celtics and Lakers are concerned, the former came away with the biggest prize. No one had any idea when the Celtics signed a free-agent substitute forward named Advertisement John Havlicek, Don Nelson, and Dave Cowens, shown in March 1975, all are honored in the rafters at TD Garden. Dan Goshtigian, Globe Staff The best player going from Boston to LA was undoubtedly Rick Fox, who ranks as a Rick Pitino major boo-boo. Fox was part of some Pitino roster clearing, but Pitino should have loved Fox, who could make threes, who never quit on a play in his life, and who was just a class act. He would play an important role on three Lakers championship teams. You also can make a case for Brian Shaw, who gave the Celtics some good service (11.1-point average in 178 games) before playing 284 games for the Lakers. An even more intriguing name was By far the biggest name with a connection to both franchises is that of California native Advertisement Oh, and guess who was an assistant coach on that 1971-72 title team? Here's a bonus item. The list of annoying defectors also should include Curtis Martin, shown in 1996, was a critical part of the Patriots' 1990s renaissance before the departed Bill Parcells swiped him for the Jets. DAVIS, Jim GLOBE STAFF This brings us to Smart. I am not neutral on this matter. I am a paid-up member of the Marcus Smart Fan Club. I recognize his foibles, but I was always willing to take the whole package. How could I not love a player who is the all-time leader in a certain category, that being Most Alley-Oop Passes Intended for a 7-Foot Greek Intercepted by a 6-5 Guard (1). I mean, come on, what's not to like? Seriously, I always loved his energy and his passion. I beamed when he was able to transform himself into a legitimate point guard. Yes, I wish he did not so often confuse himself with Stephen Curry. I realize not everyone was as forgiving as I with his erratic 3-point judgment. I also understood Smart's last two years, with Memphis and Washington, were pretty much wasted because of injury. He joins a Lakers team that should be able to utilize him strategically. I also find it intriguing that, according to Smart himself, Luka Doncic lobbied for him. Advertisement This is going to be tough for me. I can't root for the Lakers, but I also wish Marcus Smart the best. Sometimes, life can get complicated. Bob Ryan can be reached at
