2026 four-star wide receiver Jase Mathews announces commitment date
Mathews is from Leakesville, Mississippi where he attends Greene County High School. He is ranked by 247Sports as the No. 9 player in Mississippi and No. 27 nationally at wide receiver. Marcus Davis and Derrick Nix are both handling the recruitment of Mathews. Ole Miss is still the favorite to land Mathews according to Rivals. They are currently at 35.7% with Auburn following at 23.5%.
Mathews is the type of player who possesses the talent to make an impact on whichever team he decides to play for. As a junior, he caught 68 passes for 1,138 yards and 15 touchdowns. Showing that he is a great athlete, Thomas also plays basketball and runs track.
It has been well documented with the struggles Auburn has had in recruiting for the 2026 class. The Tigers are last in the SEC and only have nine commitments. Success in the regular season can change the Tigers' fortunes in recruiting. A commitment from Mathews could help bolster the class, and give the Tigers some much needed momentum.

Braves Blockbuster? Atlanta Ace Could Be Valuable Trade Deadline Piece
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 Atlanta Braves should be very aggressive sellers at the trade deadline. With a few days to go, Atlanta could be looking to cut ties with more than a handful of its best players. FanSided's Christopher Kline recently suggested the Braves could cut ties with ace Chris Sale despite a lack of hard evidence that Atlanta is looking to do so. ATLANTA, GA - JULY 15: Jacob deGrom #48 of the Texas Rangers and Chris Sale #51 of the Atlanta Braves talk before the MLB All-Star Game at Truist Park on July 15, 2025 in Atlanta,... ATLANTA, GA - JULY 15: Jacob deGrom #48 of the Texas Rangers and Chris Sale #51 of the Atlanta Braves talk before the MLB All-Star Game at Truist Park on July 15, 2025 in Atlanta, Georgia. More Matthew Grimes Jr./"All the reporting around Chris Sale suggests that Atlanta will pick up his $18 million club option for next season and run it back. That is reasonable. Sale won the NL Cy Young award in 2024 and he was a frontrunner yet again this season before an unfortunate rib injury," Kline wrote. "And yet, Sale is also 36 years old, with a long and troubling history of injuries far worse than a broken rib. It is more than fair to wonder if Atlanta is best served by selling high. "Sale, even hurt and even at his advanced age, would return a huge haul for the Braves. Contenders would line up around the block to add arguably the best left-handed arm in the National League. Sale's résumé has few equals in MLB and he's still throwing absolute gas in his 'old' age. He should be back for the playoffs in October, so this injury (in theory) is only a temporary setback." Let's be clear. The Braves haven't shown any indication that they're looking to trade Sale, but it's reasonable to speculate. Atlanta has all the pieces to compete next year if the right moves are made, but it would be very easy for their front office to be blown away by an offer from the Los Angeles Dodgers, New York Yankees or Boston Red Sox. These teams have solid farm systems and a huge need for an ace. At the end of the day, it's unlikely, but that doesn't mean it's impossible.

Sean Payton: Dre Greenlaw plays like Mike Tyson
Linebacker Dre Greenlaw made the most of the first day in pads at Broncos training camp. Greenlaw filled gaps and delivered hits throughout team drills in Denver and head coach Sean Payton said you didn't even have to be watching to know that Greenlaw was the one landing blows. Payton said "you can hear it" when Greenlaw makes a hit and then went on to compare his style to another knockout artist from a different sport. "He plays like Mike Tyson," Payton said, via the team's website. "He's tough, he's physical. He's built that way. There's not a lot of leaky yardage. Some guys [allow that]. He's a knock-back tackler. They stop where he hits them. There's an intensity to how he plays. He's one of those players that if you put the film on and didn't say anything, at some point early, you'd ask, 'Who is this guy?'" Greenlaw was limited to two games for the 49ers last year because of injuries and a quad injury interrupted his first offseason in Denver, so one key for the Broncos will be making sure Greenlaw's healthy enough to deploy that physicality on a regular basis. If he is, facing an already tough Broncos defense will be even less enjoyable for opposing offenses in 2025.
