Watch: Rams players find our their teammate's Madden ratings
The "Madden NFL" player ratings are here for the newest iteration of EA Sports' popular video game, and Los Angeles Rams players aren't too happy with some of the numbers. The team interviewed a few of the players about their teammates' ratings, including Davante Adams' overall rating, Jared Verse's speed rating, Kyren Williams' trucking ability and Tutu Atwell's speed. Adams got a 91 overall score, which both Jordan Whittington and Puka Nacua said is at least nine points too low. Verse and fellow edge rusher Young debated who has the higher speed rating, too, and the answer may surprise you. Williams, meanwhile, was pleasantly surprised by his trucking score. Check out the full video: In other "Madden" related news, Matthew Stafford earned a player rating of 88, while the Rams' rookies fell between an 68 and a 72.

Tyrol Pickleball Expands U.S. Distribution with Kittridge & Associates, Strengthens Market Leadership with Life Time and Dan Patrick Partnerships
NAPLES, Fla., Aug. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Tyrol Pickleball, the industry's first and only footwear brand purpose-built for the fast-growing sport of pickleball, has announced a major step forward in its U.S. expansion: a new sales and distribution partnership with Kittridge & Associates, a nationally recognized sales agency with a 21-person team credited for building brands like OOFOS across the U.S. Founded by performance footwear veteran Kevin Huckle in 2018, Tyrol has built its brand on specialization: footwear only, for pickleball only. With countless hours spent playing on the hot courts at the National Pickleball Center in Naples, Huckle and his wife Sharon, simply could not find a shoe that was built specifically for, and would accommodate, the unique and rigorous kinetic movements of pickleball. It simply didn't exist. Huckle found this unacceptable and got to work to create Tyrol. The brand's four foundational pillars — comfort, stability, breathability, and injury prevention — are the result of years of research into the sport's unique biomechanics. Unlike tennis shoes, Tyrol's shoes are engineered from the ground up for lateral movement, torque resistance, moisture drainage and unprecedented durability. Tyrol's credibility in performance design recently caught the attention of Vibram, the world's premier outsole maker. Vibram selected Tyrol as its pickleball footwear partner, a testament to the durability and innovation behind the brand. "Our partnership with Vibram says it all," says Huckle. "They're the best outsole company in the world, and they chose us — the only footwear brand built exclusively for pickleball — to carry their name in this category." Key commercial milestones in 2025 include: Exclusive footwear sponsor of The Life Time Open, a newly launched elite tournament backed by PPA and MLP. The October event features an unprecedented $250,000 in total prize money, including $50,000 to both men's and women's champions, attracting the best pickleball players from around the world. Media partnership with The Dan Patrick Show via iHeartRadio, positioning Tyrol at the center of sports culture and fandom. Patrick, a devoted pickleball player himself, personally sought out the brand due to its unmatched focus and performance and launched this partnership at the recent NFL Draft in Green Bay, WI, where players, coaches and media were introduced to the Tyrol difference. "As the sport of pickleball explodes in both recreational and competitive circles, we're seeing footwear become a true performance differentiator," says Huckle. "Our partnership with Kittridge gives us extensive reach in the U.S. and ensures retailers can tap into this fast-growing, equipment-hungry customer base." With a centrally located warehouse in Indianapolis, and operations in both the U.S. and Canada, Tyrol is poised to become the dominant name in pickleball footwear. Retailers, event sponsors, and media partners looking to ride the sport's explosive wave now have a dedicated, proven brand to turn to.

Aaron Judge to return Tuesday for Yankees-Rangers
Aug. 5 (UPI) -- New York Yankees star Aaron Judge will be activated off the injured list and return to action Tuesday against the Texas Rangers, manager Aaron Boone announced. Judge was placed in the 10-day injured list July 27 due to a flexor strain he sustained in his right elbow. He missed the Yankees' last 10 games. The Yankees are 4-6 over that span and now sit in third place in the American League East, 5.5 games behind the first-place Toronto Blue Jays and 2.5 games behind the rival Boston Red Sox. Judge hit an MLB-best .342 with 37 home runs and 85 RBIs over his first 103 games this season. The two-time American League MVP and seven-time All-Star also leads MLB in wins above replacement (WAR) at 6.6, total bases (268), on-base percentage (.449), slugging percentage (.711), OPS (1.160) and intentional walks (27). He is expected to take the roster spot of outfielder Austin Slater, who sustained a hamstring injury in an 8-5 loss to the Rangers on Monday in Arlington, Texas. The Yankees (60-53) will face the Rangers (59-55) in the second game of the series at 8:05 p.m. EDT Tuesday in Arlington.
