Three-time Patriots champ shares thoughts on Stefon Diggs situation

Yahoo05-06-2025
James White has had Patriots teammates who have had their fair-share of off-field issues. And while he never teamed up with Stefon Diggs, the former New England captain weighed in on the Diggs situation.
'It would be worse — to me — if he wasn't working out. He posts his workout videos, too,' White said on 'The Money Down" podcast. 'This is how I know you're actually working and focused on what the main thing is. I know he did show up to OTAs (Monday), he was moving around. He looked good coming off that ACL surgery. He's flying around, he has the energy. He's a guy who likes to have a good time, but he puts the work in.'

A video went viral of Diggs on a boat that showed the wide receiver with a bag containing an unknown pink substance in it that he was handing out to women. This all happened before he set foot on the field for the Patriots, and many fans wondered whether the Patriots would release Diggs.
But as White pointed out, Diggs has been busy focusing on his recovery from a torn ACL he suffered in Week 8 of the 2024 season. The 31-year-old has posted videos of his recovery, and he appears on track to be available in Week 1.
Monday was the first time Diggs was spotted at practice.
And while he was limited during the session, MassLive's Mark Daniels reported Diggs 'looked good for a player who suffered a torn ACL last fall,' and also 'had a notable burst of speed during position drills.'

Versatile €30m forward told he can join Liverpool

Liverpool are conducting big changes in their attack line this summer. Luis Diaz has already left the club - and we could see the likes of Federico Chiesa, Ben Doak and Federico Chiesa join him on the list of departures. Space has been made in the squad - and the budget - for new arrivals like Jeremie Frimpong, Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike. 🔴 Shop the LFC 2025/26 adidas home range Shop the LFC Store 🚨2025/26 LFC x adidas range🚨 LFC x adidas Shop the home range today!

We could even see the Reds complete another British record deal - having paid up to £116m for Wirtz - depending on what happens with Alexander Isak. And although it's unlikely that he arrives this summer, there is another versatile attacker appearing on the Reds' radar. Baris Alper Yilmaz, 25, won the Turkish league and cup double with Galatasaray last season. Baris Alper Yilmaz linked with Liverpool The Turkey international - who is equally comfortable playing left or right wing - scored 14 goals and added six assists overall for the Istanbul giants. Following another stellar campaign, he has been mooted as a potential departure - with Turkish reports suggesting that West Ham could be a destination. However, his coach, Okan Buruk, believes he is TOO GOOD for the Hammers and should instead hold out one more year for Liverpool to come calling. Gala coach says wait for Liverpool That's according to a new report from Galatasaray reporter Ali Naci Küçük, who discussed the player's transfer situation on the SkySpor YouTube channel. "Barış has no intention of leaving," the report said. "Barış Alper Yılmaz has a truly special and distinct place for Okan Buruk. 'Coach Okan told Barış, 'Europe's eyes are on Galatasaray right now... Instead of going to West Ham, go to Tottenham or Liverpool.'"

Caleb Williams Watch: How Bears QB performed on Day 7 of training camp

The Chicago Bears continued training camp on Wednesday morning with their seventh practice of the summer, and there was plenty to break down from Day 7 -- including the performance of quarterback Caleb Williams. Williams is entering his second season following a rocky rookie year that included two head coaches, three offensive coordinators, being sacked a league-high 68 times, a 10-game losing streak and a 5-12 record. But the Bears prioritized Williams' development this offseason with the hiring of offensive guru Ben Johnson as head coach, overhauling the interior offensive line and adding even more weapons to the mix. All eyes will be on Williams this summer as he continues to learn Johnson's offense and looks to find a rhythm heading into Year 2. We're taking a look at the good, the bad and the noteworthy with Williams from the seventh practice of Bears training camp: The Good Williams has really stepped up following a rough start to training camp, and that continued into Wednesday's lighter, red-zone simulated practice. According to Bear Report's Zack Pearson, the starting offense got off to a strong start during the 11-on-11 period. Williams connected with wide receivers DJ Moore, Olamide Zaccheaus and rookie Luther Burden III on consecutive pass attempts. His best was to Burden, where Williams "threaded the needle" (per The Athletic's Kevin Fishbain) in the completion inside the five-yard line. While the final 11-on-11 red zone period wasn't pretty (more on that below), Williams still managed to put an exclamation on it with a touchdown on a read option. The Bad While Williams and the starting offense got off to a strong start, they did struggle during 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 drills, per Pearson. During the low red zone 7-on-7 work, Williams completed just 1 of 5 passes (his completion coming to running back Kyle Monangai out of the backfield for a touchdown.) One of his incompletions was to rookie tight end Colston Loveland, who slipped and fell down and was unable to haul it in. Pearson noted that during 11-on-11 that Williams went 0-for-2 and was sacked. But Williams did use his legs to find the end zone on a read option. The Noteworthy The Bears used their first two draft picks on offensive weapons for Williams, so it's a good thing that both are already showcasing they can be impact players in this offense -- and favorite targets for the second-year quarterback. The past two days have been about Williams' connection with rookie tight end Colston Loveland. But Wednesday's practice showed that Williams also has a budding connection with rookie wide receiver Luther Burden III, who practiced in team drills for just the second time. Burden was on the receiving end of two of the best plays of the day in this rather uneventful practice. On the first play, Williams hit Burden across the middle and the second-round rookie ran into the end zone prompting an ovation from the fans in attendance. On the second play, Burden made an impressive catch in the back of the end zone -- which Greg Braggs called "the play of the day" -- where it's up for debate whether he was in bounds or not. Still, it was a great catch. It's worth noting that this is the first time Williams has had the opportunity to throw to Loveland and Burden as both missed the veteran portion of the offseason program due to injury. The more reps the young rookies get with Williams, the more dangerous this offense becomes.

Sophie Cunningham Facing Criticism For 'Weird' Behavior With Teammates

Sophie Cunningham Facing Criticism For 'Weird' Behavior With Teammates originally appeared on The Spun. WNBA star Sophie Cunningham might be playing some of the best basketball of her career right now, and yet, she's receiving a decent amount of criticism on social media. Cunningham stepped up for the Indiana Fever on Sunday, dropping 17 points in a 78-74 victory over the Seattle Storm. She has really stepped up during Caitlin Clark's absence, averaging 11.7 points per contest over the past two weeks. Off the court, Cunningham is keeping herself busy with her new "Show Me Something" podcast. During her debut episode, she ripped the current state of officiating in the WNBA. "If I was a ref, I know I would mess up all the time," Cunningham said. "I'm not saying that your job is easy. But when it is a a simple call right in front of your face multiple times, what are you doing? What are you doing? They're just so inconsistent. Like, if you're on the other team and you're going to be fining the [expletive] out of me, cool. But let me do it to you. Yeah. You know what I mean?" For the most part, fans appreciated Cunningham's honesty on her podcast. What they didn't like was her pregame interaction with Fever guard Sydney Colson Cunningham and Lexie Hull basically sat on Colson as she was lacing up her sneakers on the hardwood. It seemed like a playful interaction, but some people found it to be weird and downright childish. "This is actually very weird," one fan replied after seeing this video. "Diabolical," a second fan commented. "That is so childish," another fan wrote. "I don't like this one bit and I'm not debating," a fourth fan said. The Fever are riding a five-game winning streak right now, so there shouldn't be any concerns about the culture in the locker room. Besides, this genuinely seemed like a joke between teammates and nothing more. Do you think Cunningham crossed the line? Or are her critics trying to make something out of nothing?Sophie Cunningham Facing Criticism For 'Weird' Behavior With Teammates first appeared on The Spun on Aug 4, 2025 This story was originally reported by The Spun on Aug 4, 2025, where it first appeared.
