Raiders trade CB Jakorian Bennett to Eagles for DT Thomas Booker IV, AP source says
HENDERSON, Nev. (AP) — The Las Vegas Raiders are trading cornerback Jakorian Bennett to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for defensive tackle Thomas Booker IV, a person with knowledge of the deal said Monday. That person spoke on condition of anonymity to The Associated Press because the trade is pending physicals on both players. Bennett, drafted in the fourth round two years ago out of Maryland, started seven games for the Raiders last season before being shut down because of a torn labrum that required surgery. He played well as a cover cornerback, but Bennett was running with the second and third teams this training camp under first-year coach Pete Carroll. At 5-foot-10, Bennett doesn't fit Carroll's preference of playing taller cornerbacks. Six-foot Eric Stokes and 6-2 rookie Darien Porter have been competing with the starters this camp. Booker started one game and played in all 17 last season for the Eagles. He also appeared in four postseason games for the Super Bowl champions. But Booker, a 2022 fifth-round draft pick of Houston, was fifth on the depth chart at a deep defensive tackle position this season. The Raiders released defensive tackle Christian Wilkins on July 24 over a dispute over a recovery plan for a broken foot from last season. The club is attempting to void the remaining $35.25 million of Wilkins' deal, and he has filed a grievance with the NFL Players Association. Defensive tackles Adam Butler and Jonah Laulu have been working with the starters. ___ AP Sports Writer Dan Gelston in Philadelphia contributed to this report. ___ AP NFL:

2025 NFL, CFB, MLB Best Bets, Predictions By Chris 'The Bear' Fallica
National Football League 2025 NFL, CFB, MLB Best Bets, Predictions By Chris 'The Bear' Fallica Published Aug. 4, 2025 10:21 p.m. ET share facebook x reddit link "Bear Bets" are real wagers that Chris "The Bear" Fallica is actually making. There's something incredibly special about fall sports. Between college football, NFL and MLB postseason, there is fun to be had for all — particularly when it comes to laying a few wagers. That's where I come in. One of the wagers below features Kyle Shanahan, and it's what I believe to be a really solid bet. Let's take a look at where I'm sprinkling my cash this week. Penn State to make the CFP This is my favorite bet in college football this season. No team in the sport is more predictable or trustworthy than Penn State, which usually hammers the teams it is supposed to, and loses to top-five, top-10-type teams. This puts the Nittany Lions at a 10-2 floor, as they have both Oregon and Ohio State on the slate. The Oregon game is at State College, so let's say PSU wins that game. Maybe the game at Iowa is tricky? Potentially lose at Ohio State? That's it. Even the detractors of Drew Allar have to think Penn State is returning to the College Football Playoff behind a powerful running game and elite defense, even without Abdul Carter. Some people do not like laying a price like this, but I have no issue doing so. A 10-2 record and a CFP berth for Penn State — book it. PICK: Penn State (-290) to make the CFP Penn State HC James Franklin on what makes Drew Allar special Kyle Shanahan to win Coach of the Year Just about everything that could go wrong for the 49ers last year did. Injuries to Christian McCaffrey, Trent Williams and others. Blown late leads. It was just one of those years in the Bay after another agonizing Super Bowl loss. There isn't a ton of depth here, but injury luck doesn't tend to repeat itself in consecutive years, meaning expect the Niners to be healthier this season. The schedule is about as easy as could be coming off a 6-11 season, and, with a win total of 10.5, the Niners are supposed to be good. ADVERTISEMENT Robert Saleh returns to San Francisco to coach a defense that has played as if it missed his leadership over the last couple of seasons. Maybe Shanahan doesn't fit the mold of a young head coach or a head coach from a team that's going to surprise, but there's a chance the Niners could post something like 12-5 and win the division, given that schedule, especially if the concerns over Rams QB Matthew Stafford are realized. I just don't get how guys like Aaron Glenn are shorter-priced in this market, given how the Jets are going to win like six games. PICK: Kyle Shanahan (20-1) to win Coach of the Year Clayton McCullough to win NL Manager of the Year Okay, by now we've all made the joke, "Can you name the Marlins manager?" But Clayton McCullough and the Marlins might be getting the last laugh. The former Dodgers first-base coach has Miami on the cusp of a .500 record after sweeping the Yankees. While it might be a little too much to ask him to reach the playoffs given the strength of the current NL wild cards, it's not unreasonable to think he's in the mix for NL Manager of the Year consideration. This has been a lineup and rotation in flux all season and if Miami actually got some decent pitching from Sandy Alcántara in the first half of the season, it might actually have a legit chance at a wild card. Brewers manager Pat Murphy is a big favorite here, and I guess he should be. But in terms of doing more with less, McCullough certainly deserves consideration if the Marlins finish with a winning record. Obviously, I'm late to the party here in terms of the number, but I'll jump in now in case they continue this hot streak. PICK: Clayton McCullough (23-1) to win NL Manager of the Year Chris "The Bear" Fallica has covered sports for nearly three decades. While college football has been his focus, he also enjoys the NFL, Soccer, Golf, Tennis, MLB, NHL and Horse Racing, with an "occasional" wager on such events. Chris recently won the inaugural Circa Football Invitational and finished in the Top 10 of the Golden Nugget Football Contest. He's a multiple-time qualifier for the NHC Handicapping Championship.

Top Lions CB to Miss Significant Time After Suffering Concerning Injury
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Detroit Lions were ravaged by injuries for most of last season, and the team limped into the playoffs as the No. 1 seed with several injuries on defense, including star pass-rusher Aidan Hutchinson. Though the regular season is a little over four weeks away, the Lions are still battling the injury bug a week into training camp. The team has already announced that starting defensive end Levi Onwuzurike will miss the regular season after undergoing offseason ACL surgery, and several other defensive contributors have went down with varying injuries this offseason including defensive tackles Alim McNeill and Mekhi Wingo, defensive end Josh Paschal, linebacker Malcolm Rodriguez, cornerbacks Terrion Arnold and Khalil Dorsey, and safety Dan Jackson, who was placed on injured reserve. More NFL: Legendary Browns QB Sends Ominous Shedeur Sanders Warning to Team The punches kept coming on Monday as head coach Dan Campbell announced that cornerback Ennis Rakestraw Jr., Detroit's second-round pick in the 2024 draft, would miss some significant time with a shoulder injury. "[It's] tough to say [how long he'll miss]," Campbell told reporters on Monday. "It's a shoulder. I think it's going to be a while, at best. "... We're getting it checked now, and we'll know more in due time. You hate it for the kid, you hate it. It's not his fault, and just one of those tough deals. All you can do is try to get it better, rehab, and try to come back stronger and move on — that's all you can do." Ennis Rakestraw Jr. #15 of the Detroit Lions defends in coverage during an NFL football game against the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium on October 13, 2024 in Arlington, Texas. Ennis Rakestraw Jr. #15 of the Detroit Lions defends in coverage during an NFL football game against the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium on October 13, 2024 in Arlington, 23-year-old defensive back was limited to just eight games during his rookie season as he battled a hamstring injury that lingered all season long and limited him to just 46 defensive snaps and derailed his opportunity to start as a first-year CB. "It kind of was a redshirt year," Rakestraw said, via the team's official website. "But you don't get to pick those situations. Don't nobody just pick to be hurt. You know, I never picked it for myself." More NFL: Browns Sign Pro Bowl QB After Injuries to Shedeur Sanders, Dillon Gabriel With Carlton Davis now with the New England Patriots and Kindle Vildor with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Rakestraw was seemingly poised to play a key role in Detroit's secondary along with Arnold, D.J. Reed, and Amik Robertson. And despite having a new injury setback, it's clear based off how he handled last year Rakestraw will be highly motivated once he is cleared to play again. "Every situation that came to me — ask anybody in the training room, anybody in the building — I took it under the chin and I kept going, showed face, smiled every day and it just didn't go my way," Rakestraw said of his injury woes last season. "...Now, let's develop a new habit, new body and be available. That's all I can do."
