Did NFL offseason change list of contenders? Plus Wimbledon upsets continue

The Pulse Newsletter 📣 | This is The Athletic's daily sports newsletter. Sign up here to receive The Pulse directly in your inbox. Good morning! Hang onto your best players today. NFL training camps open this very month, with most teams reporting in full around July 22. Every NFL offseason is a spectacle, and this one felt especially dramatic, at least to us at Pulse HQ. The Shedeur Sanders draft plummet happened. The QB carousel spun almost literally to no end, thanks to Aaron Rodgers. Stefon Diggs signed a big deal in New England and then took a nice ride on a boat. There was an exceedingly rare trade not only of veteran players for one another, but two All-Pros, Jalen Ramsey and Minkah Fitzpatrick. Advertisement The NFL (and we in the sports media, too) loves the circus. But on the verge of camp, has it struck anyone else just how little this offseason seemed to change the league's pecking order? The five teams with by far the best Super Bowl odds, per BetMGM, are the Eagles, Ravens, Bills, Chiefs and Lions. Four of those were also in the top five at this time last year. The only difference is the Bills more or less swapping places with the 49ers (second-best odds last year, now sixth). Not that the Bengals or Commanders couldn't crash the party, but it sure feels like not a lot has changed. Am I too dismissive? I asked some The Athletic football writers if I'm missing anything. Scoop City (subscribe for free to the NFL newsletter) author Jacob Robinson: 💬 After Denver improved in nearly every facet this offseason, expect the Broncos to look like legitimate Super Bowl contenders. They'll get a chance to prove it in Week 5, when they visit the Eagles. Senior writer Jourdan Rodrigue: 💬 I don't think people are loud enough about ranking the Buccaneers in the contenders category. They have a quarterback in Baker Mayfield who is playing the best football of his career (though can be erratic), one of the best offensive lines, one of the best (and deepest) receiving corps and an emerging run game. The injury-luck pendulum may swing back in favor of their defense this season and give that group an overall lift. This team is well-built and will score points, with plenty of attitude. Don't overlook them! Yo-ho, yo-ho. PSG, Real Madrid advance in CWC In yesterday's Club World Cup quarterfinal action, PSG prevailed over Bayern Munich in a chaotic affair — unfortunately dampened by a horrific injury — while Real Madrid escaped a late flurry from Borussia Dortmund thanks to an incredible goal from Kylian Mbappe. Despite all the controversy surrounding the tournament, the product on the field has been legitimately good. So, are American fans flocking to watch the best teams in the world in action? Nope. Tickets for the Club World Cup's first semifinal dropped to $13.40 yesterday after having been priced at $473.90 (!) less than 72 hours earlier. That's less than a beer inside MetLife Stadium. Former champs out of Wimbledon Defending champion Barbora Krejčíková was bounced by American Emma Navarro in yesterday's Wimbledon action shortly after 2022 winner Elena Rybakina met a similar fate — the latest in a string of surprising results in the women's draw. The favorites on the men's side cruised yesterday, as Novak Djokovic and Jannik Sinner both played near-perfect tennis. Plenty more updates from the All England Club in our Day 6 recap here.

Notre Dame landed a commitment from wide receiver Devin Fitzgerald, son of former NFL star Larry Fitzgerald, last night. The Irish are building a whole team of NFL legacies.

Ottawa Senators Sign Five Players, Including Former OHL Sniper Arthur Kaliyev When the Ottawa Senators selected Shane Pinto 32nd overall in the 2019 NHL Draft, some Sens fans raised an eyebrow or two, wondering if Hamilton Bulldogs winger Arthur Kaliyev might have been the better choice. Kaliyev had just put up a 51-goal OHL season, and ended up being chosen by the LA Kings with the very next pick after Pinto. 1:43 Now Playing Paused Ad Playing

Dortmund leave Club World Cup hopeful for the future

orussia Dortmund Niko Kovac is pictured before FIFA Club World Cup quarter-final match between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund at Metlife Stadium. David Klein/CSM via ZUMA Press Wire/dpa Borussia Dortmund hope that their Club World Cup adventure will be a stepping stone towards better results in the future. Dortmund have generated more then €100 million ($118 million) from income at the tournament in the United States as well as the sale of players over the past weeks, led by Jamie Gittens' move to Chelsea for a reported €65 million. Advertisement Sporting director Sebastian Kehl said after Saturday's 3-2 quarter-final defeat against Real Madrid that at least part of the money will be reinvested. "Something will happen on the transfer market. We will definitely do something. We will make the team better than last year," Kehl said. Dortmund marketing managing director Carsten Cramer told dpa that "we do have a few advantages" but that they also "worked hard for them". That includes qualifying for the Club World Cup with its $1 billion prize money with good showings such as reaching the Champions League final in 2024. Advertisement "We are eighth in the European ranking, were in the Champions League quarter-finals and are now among the best eight in the world. That is something to be proud of," managing director for sport Lars Ricken told dpa. However, Dortmund will need to make efforts to establish themselves as biggest rivals of Bayern Munich in Germany and also to shine on the international stage. Dortmund only reached the next Champions League via a strong Bundesliga finish for fourth place under new coach Niko Kovac, and they were largely outplayed by star-studded Real on Saturday at MetLife Stadium. Kovac admitted that extra time, which suddenly became possible due to a turbulent stoppage time period, "would have not been fair". Advertisement Midfielder Pascal Gross said that "a different kind of football is played in the Bundesliga" compared to the Club World Cup, where Dortmund were however not fully glorious in their other games either. However, playing on the global stage has generated 2 million new followers on social media for Dortmund - who could also recently report a renewal until 2034 with their kit makers Puma which is said to worth €300 million. "Our networks, our partners, the number of our fans, our digital reach, and of course our turnover, is growing and growing," Cramer said. However, a lot of work still awaits them, on the pitch and off it as well, with the vast majority of the 77,000 fans on Saturday supporting Real. "We know about the tasks ahead of us in the world. We don't want to and can't compare ourselves with Real Madrid," Kehl said.
