Patriots' Drake Maye, Christian Gonzalez create an interesting dynamic for New England
Second-year quarterback Drake Maye is on the rise. And three-year cornerback Christian Gonzalez is a star.
It can create an interesting dynamic, though, as detailed by ESPN's Mike Reiss in his training camp preview.

Reiss wrote that, earlier in the offseason, Maye had some trouble with throwing too many interceptions
But a few sentences later, Reiss pointed out that Gonzalez had made multiple of those picks.

Sure, Maye shouldn't throw toward Gonzalez as much.
But it's quite ironic. The star on one side of the ball is going to get the star on the other side. New England just has to hope that both stand out when the games count and they're playing against other teams, not each other.

Cowboys VP makes odd comment regarding Micah Parsons contract situation
Former Penn State linebacker Micah Parsons is currently in the middle of the NFL's most notable contract dispute with his current team, the Dallas Cowboys. Parsons has shown up to training camp instead of holding out, but the two sides still appear to be at odds on coming to an agreement on a new contract. And some of the recent comments coming out of the Cowboys front office suggest we are not about to get much closer anytime too soon. Speaking to some members of the media during a training camp practice over the weekend, Cowboys vice president Stephen Jones made a comment that could be interpreted as the team is not going to budge on whatever offer is currently on the table for Parsons. "We want to pay Micah too," Jones said. "He's got to want to be paid." For his part, Parsons has always shown he is committed to working things out with the Cowboys and taking the steps necessary to show he can be relied on as a leader of the team, especially on defense. Parsons has made his presence known in workouts and his decision to show up for training camp rather than holding out is his way of showing the team he is there to work no matter what. But recent contract extensions around the league for some of the top edge rushers in the game have continued to raise the bar for what Parsons could expect to earn. T.J. Watt recently signed an extension with the Pittsburgh Steelers for four years and $150 million. Many NFL experts believe Parsons will get more on a new deal. Parsons is entering his fifth season in the NFL and will do so on a club option for $24 million this fall. Follow Kevin McGuire on Threads, Bluesky, Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook.

PSG: Achraf Hakimi and his teammates have impressed Riyad Mahrez
Riyad Mahrez In a recent interview, Riyad Mahrez expressed his admiration for the European champions. The Algerian international sees the current PSG as reminiscent of his former Manchester City side. Recently, Riyad Mahrez was asked about PSG. Given the remarkable season Luis Enrique's team has had, football insiders have not hesitated to praise the Parisian club, and Riyad Mahrez was no exception. In an interview with Carré, the Algeria captain compared PSG to "his" Manchester City. "PSG reminds me of when we were at City, back in our era two or three years ago, when we played without a striker. When we played without a striker, we were... wow, you had to come and get us! They remind me of our old team. They bring intensity, they're technically sound. These guys are killers: they run everywhere. Then you have Ousmane on fire, and the other players around him who make the difference. You need a bit of everything... Luis Enrique is like Guardiola. Same school. I'm happy for them, honestly. It's a great team. Of course. There's no secret.", said the Algerian.
