Commanders will debut "Super Bowl Era" alternate uniform in 2025
Washington announced on Wednesday that the club will debut its "Super Bowl Era" uniform and helmet this season, which resembles the traditional kit the team wore under its previous name. The uniform includes a white jersey with burgundy pants that sport gold and white stripes down the side. The 'W' helmet also has two white stripes and a gold stripe in the middle with a gold facemask.

"We are excited to celebrate Washington's rich history with these iconic, Super Bowl Era uniforms this season," Commanders President Mark Clouse said in a press release. "Ever since Josh Harris and our ownership group acquired the team back in 2023, they've placed great value in finding ways to connect the past and present and pay homage to those that made the Burgundy and Gold what it is today.'
As the Commanders' announcement notes, the uniform design is inspired by what the franchise wore during Super Bowl seasons of 1982, 1987, and 1991.
"These uniforms honor the most successful era of our franchise -- one that reflects a culture of excellence and encompasses many historical moments and special memories amongst our fanbase," Clouse said. "We look forward to bringing that nostalgic feeling back to fans, while incorporating a modern feel for our next generation of fans.'
The Commanders will debut the uniform against the Seahawks in Week 9 on Sunday Night Football. Washington will also wear it against the Broncos in Week 13 and the Cowboys in Week 17.

Brent Rooker Reveals Preferred Team Ahead of Trade Deadline
Brent Rooker Reveals Preferred Team Ahead of Trade Deadline originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Athletics are making it clear which players are part of their long-term vision. Instead of selling off their top performers, the A's have doubled down on youth and internal development, locking in two of their most promising hitters to multi-year extensions. The first move came in January, when the club signed veteran slugger Brent Rooker to a five-year, $60 million extension. Rooker, who won a Silver Slugger Award and earned his first All-Star nod in 2024, has continued to anchor the lineup this season. Through 104 games, he's batting .263 with 21 home runs and 56 RBIs, recently hitting his 100th career home run. Two months later, the A's extended outfielder Lawrence Butler with a seven-year, $65.5 million deal that includes a club option through 2032 and could reach $87.5 million in total value. The 24-year-old has become one of Oakland's most reliable bats in 2025, posting a .249 average, 17 home runs, and 56 RBIs in 387 at-bats. His second-half surge in 2024 (.300/.330/.565) was a major bright spot during a year when the team improved from 50 to 69 wins. The A's enter play on July 24 with a 42-62 record, last in the American League West. However, they've clearly prioritized stability as they continue their relocation process. Now playing home games at Sutter Health Park in Sacramento, the franchise is set to move to Las Vegas in 2028. The long-term uncertainty has led to speculation that the A's might shop players like Rooker ahead of the deadline. Instead, Rooker made it clear where he stands during a recent appearance on the Foul Territory podcast. 'I'm not going anywhere, Kratzy,' Rooker told co-host Erik Kratz. "I signed the extension because I'm where I want to be. I believe in what we're doing, the people that we have (roster and players), our coaching staff, in the building. I believe in everything going on and I want to be a part of that." Between Butler's breakout and Rooker's consistency, the A's appear to have their offensive foundation in place. The A's may not be ready to contend yet, but the message is clear: they're not starting from scratch much longer. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jul 24, 2025, where it first appeared.

Phillies third baseman Edmundo Sosa leaves after collision with left fielder Brandon Marsh
NEW YORK (AP) — Philadelphia third baseman Edmundo Sosa left Saturday's game against the New York Yankees after he was elbowed in the back by left fielder Brandon Marsh in a collision while catching Jazz Chisholm Jr.'s seventh-inning popup. Sosa, Marsh and shortstop Trea Turner converged on the ball in short left field. Turner peeled off, Sosa made the catch, then was knocked to the ground by Marsh. Sosa's fall caused the ball to pop out of his glove. After Phillies head athletic trainer Paul Buchheit and manager Rob Thomson came out to attend to Sosa, the third baseman walked off slowly with Marsh's arm around him. Umpires initially awarded Chisholm a hit, but the call was changed to an inning-ending out in a video review as they concluded Sosa had possession of the ball before hitting the grass. Otto Kemp pinch hit for Sosa in the eighth. ___ AP MLB:

43 days until the Texans' 2025 season opener: Who has worn No.43?
The Houston Texans are less than 50 days away from kicking off the 2025 season in Los Angeles against the Rams at SoFi Stadium and we're counting down the days until a victory ensues on the west coast. Texans Wire will daily inform you which player has worn the number of the day leading up to kickoff and select the player who best represented the number during their time at NRG Stadium. As for today, let's take a look at who has worn No. 43 since the inaugural season in 2002. Texans players to wear No. 43 No. 43 currently belongs to fullback Jakob Johnson. An international player, the German-born linebacker-turned-fullback has played for the New England Patriots and Las Vegas Raiders, mostly seeing action on special teams. He was in Foxborough during the same time as Nick Caley, so a familiarity with the offense could help him carve out a role as an offensive weapon that offers more upside on punts and kickoff coverage. Since Johnson has yet to play a live game in a Texans uniform, he's not the G.O.A.T. of H-Town's No. 43. However, is there a right answer to the equation? FB Jakob Johnson (Present) LB Neville Hewitt (2021-2024) CB Shareece Wright (2018) DB Corey Moore (2015–-2017) DB Elbert Mack (2013) FB Jameel Cook (2006-2007) CB Kenny Wright (2002-2004) Best Player: Neville Hewitt A special teams favorite, Hewitt was essential in helping the Texans rebuild. Over four seasons, he filled in at linebacker, but offered more value on kickoffs, punts and kickoff return coverage. Over his four seasons, Hewitt notched 147 tackles, two tackles for loss and an interception. He won't be making it to Canton or even the Texans' Ring of Honor, but being called the best player to wear No. 43 has to mean something, right?
