Juli Buehler to Retire From WLUK in Green Bay

Yahoo07-03-2025
WLUK news director Juli Buehler has announced her retirement after 45 years.
Buehler has been the ND at WLUK since 1995.
"Juli has had a truly remarkable journey. Many strong journalists across the country have passed through here and have benefited from her involvement in their lives,' said Jay Zollar, vice president and general manager of WLUK Fox 11 and WCWF CW14. 'Fox 11 would not be what it is today if it were not for Juli's investment of her passion and experience."
She is the recipient of numerous awards, including The Associated Press Carol Brewer Award, and her induction into the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences Silver Circle in 2016.
"I am appreciative of all the many opportunities WLUK-TV and Sinclair Media (the parent company of WLUK), have afforded me,' said Buehler. 'It has been an incredible journey with colleagues who have become lifelong friends, and newsroom adventures that are lifelong memories. This career has been a gift."
In her previous roles, Buehler wrote and produced for the Voice of America, based in Washington, D.C. She also worked as a reporter and anchor at television newsrooms in Rochester Minnesota and Eau Claire Wisconsin and as a producer in New Haven, Connecticut.
Under Buehler's leadership, the content creation teams of WLUK embarked on many Northeast Wisconsin 'firsts,' from launching the market-leading four-and-a-half-hour morning news program, "Good Day Wisconsin," to network affiliation changes, Super Bowl coverage, national political conventions, and lifestyle programs. She was an integral part of the team that created FOX 11 Packers Family Night, along with the football organization, as well as advising on the purchase of a property across from Lambeau Field, now known as the Fox 11 Field House. She has served on the executive board of the Wisconsin Broadcasters Association and played a part in advocating for access and transparency between elected officials, the court system and journalists.

What Ravens fans should know about the Cleveland Browns before training camp begins

The Ravens still have one of the deepest teams in the NFL after several key departures and the retirement of Michael Pierce during the offseason. Such attrition provides the opportunity for younger players on the roster to assume larger roles while maintaining a Super Bowl window for a team that'll have new starters at several key defensive positions. Over the next two weeks, we will conduct mini-previews of the four AFC North teams as they begin reporting for training camp, with the Ravens' rookies set to report a week from Tuesday. Cleveland is next, with Cincinnati reporting on July 19 and Pittsburgh reporting on July 23. With mid-July fast approaching, we're looking at what Ravens fans should know about the Cleveland Browns before training camp begins. Browns external free agency or trade additions this offseason: LB Jerome Baker QB Joe Flacco WR DeAndre Carter DT Maliek Collins G Teven Jenkins OL Cornelius Lucas CB Nik Needham DE Julian Okwara QB Kenny Pickett (Trade) DE Joe Tryon-Shoyinka Browns external free agency departures this offseason: The Cleveland Browns have seen a few key players depart in free agency this year. Notably, offensive tackle James Hudson III signed with the Giants, wide receiver James Proche II joined the Titans, quarterback Jameis Winston also signed with the Giants, and quarterback Bailey Zappe is now with the Chiefs. Additionally, the Browns released defensive end Ogbo Okoronkwo. D'Anthony Bell signed with the Seahawks. The Browns' remaining unsigned free agents T Hakeem Adeniji - UFATE Jordan Akins - UFAOT Geron Christian - UFARB Nick Chubb - UFAG Michael Dunn - UFADT Michael Dwumfour - ERFARB D'Onta Foreman - UFAFB/C Nick Harris - UFADE James Houston - RFAOLB Khaleke Hudson - UFADT Maurice Hurst II - UFAG Germain Ifedi - UFARB John Kelly Jr. - ERFAS Rodney McLeod Jr. - UFAWR Elijah Moore - UFATE Geoff Swaim - UFAT Jedrick Wills Jr. - UFA Browns key weapons Cleveland's running back room consists of Jerome Ford and Pierre Strong Jr., as Nick Chubb became an unrestricted free agent when the new league began on March 12. In his first season with the Browns, Jerry Jeudy established himself as the top receiver among the corps, leading the pass catchers with 90 receptions for 1,229 receiving yards. They also have young players in Cedric Tillman, David Bell, Jamari Thrash, and Michael Woods II. The tight end room is led by David Njoku, who had the second-most receptions for the Browns in 2024 with 64 for 505 receiving yards and five touchdowns over 11 games. On defense, the Browns signed DE Myles Garrett to a contract extension that goes through the 2030 season, but they also signed multiple players to help fill in their defensive line with DT Maliek Collins and DE Joe Tryon-Shoyinka. The cornerback room is running it back from the 2024 season, with CB Tony Brown II re-signing with the Browns in free agency. The room is led by four-time Pro Bowler Denzel Ward and Greg Newsome II, as well as young players like Cameron Mitchell, Martin Emerson Jr., and Myles Harden, who have found their respective roles in the secondary. Will the Browns' free-agent additions pan out? The Browns added DeAndre Carter, who is likely the favorite to handle return duties in 2025. Cleveland needs explosive plays in the return game after ranking 30th in yards per kick return (24.8) last season. Carter, who ranked second in the league in yards per kick return (31.9), could provide that. Teven Jenkins has started 38 games in four seasons, most prominently at left guard the last two years. With Joel Bitonio returning for a 12th season after contemplating retirement, the addition of Jenkins could also be a move for the future. Tryon-Shoyinka has never registered more than five sacks in a season. His 6.0% pressure rate last season tied for 106th out of 190 qualifying pass rushers. Joe Flacco spent the 2024 season with the Colts, appearing in eight games and starting six of them. He completed 162 of 248 passing attempts for 1,761 passing yards and 12 touchdowns. Flacco returns to Cleveland after joining the Browns in Week 12 of the 2023 season. He started five consecutive games beginning in Week 13, and during that stretch, the Browns went 4-1 with Flacco at quarterback. His tenure was highlighted by the Week 17 win over the Jets on Thursday Night Football that officially clinched their playoff berth – their first playoff appearance since 2020. While in Cleveland, Flacco completed 123 of 204 passing attempts for 1,616 passing yards and 13 touchdowns during the regular season. How did the Browns approach the NFL draft? The Cleveland Browns' 2025 draft class includes: DT Mason Graham (Round 1), LB Carson Schwesinger (Round 2), RB Quinshon Judkins (Round 2), TE Harold Fannin Jr. (Round 3), QB Dillon Gabriel (Round 3), RB Dylan Sampson (Round 4), and QB Shedeur Sanders (Round 5). The Browns traded down from the #2 pick in the first round, acquiring additional picks in the process. They also traded up in the fifth round to select Shedeur Sanders. When does the Cleveland Browns' training camp start? July 18: Cleveland Browns rookies report for training camp July 22: Cleveland Browns veterans report for training campThe rest of the Browns arrive for the start of training camp. They'll undergo medical exams and other preliminary meetings. July 23: Cleveland Browns' first full-squad training camp practiceThe Browns will conduct their first full-squad training camp practice at 4:25 p.m. It's closed to fans.

49ers Linked to Possible Blockbuster Trade to Help Brock Purdy

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 San Francisco 49ers enter the 2025 NFL season as a potential contender. While they could be a contender, there is also a chance that they could miss the playoffs like they did last season. No one knows what to expect from the 49ers. Just two short years ago, San Francisco was in the Super Bowl. It lost to Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs, but the 49ers were expected to be back. Then, the 2024 season arrived. Brock Purdy #13 of the San Francisco 49ers pass the ball against the Detroit Lions at Levi's Stadium on December 30, 2024 in Santa Clara, California.

Photo byDue to a lot of injury issues and other facts as well, the team struggled. They missed the playoffs and went just 6-11 throughout the year. Read more: Browns QB Shedeur Sanders Linked to AFC Trade Scenario Throughout the 2025 NFL offseason, San Francisco lost quite a few talented players. One of those players was wide receiver Deebo Samuel. That has left a question mark for the 49ers at the wide receiver position. Brandon Aiyuk is coming back this season, but is coming off of a torn ACL that he suffered last year. Ricky Pearsall is expected to take a step forward, but that isn't a guarantee. Jauan Jennings is dealing with an injury during training camp. With that in mind, could the front office look to make a move to improve the position? How about a blockbuster trade for Washington Commanders star Terry McLaurin? McLaurin has officially requested a trade for the Commanders. The two sides were unable to work out a new contract and he could be on the move. Cody Benjamin of CBS Sports has suggested that San Francisco could be an ideal landing spot for him if he is traded. "The 49ers already gave the Commanders a starting wideout in Deebo Samuel. Now it might be time for Washington to repay the favor," Benjamin wrote. "We highly doubt Adam Peters has any interest in supplying a fellow NFC contender with a premium wideout, but what if John Lynch is desperate for immediate Brock Purdy help, what with Brandon Aiyuk and Ricky Pearsall battling recent or ongoing injuries? McLaurin would be a plug-and-play starter, and perhaps the Commanders could still get a quality veteran wideout, such as Jauan Jennings, as part of the move." Read more: Vikings Teammate Sends Clear Message on JJ McCarthy During the 2024 NFL season with Washington, McLaurin racked up 82 receptions for 1,096 yards and 13 touchdowns. He would immediately be Brock Purdy's number one target. Giving Purdy as many good weapons as the 49ers can is always a wise decision. If McLaurin truly is on the trade block, John Lynch would be wise to pursue him. Only time will tell if the Commanders will actually open to trading McLaurin. San Francisco is a team worth watching closely in the coming days as a potential suitor. For more on the San Francisco 49ers and general NFL news, head over to Newsweek Sports.

Pro Bowl wide receiver Terry McLaurin has requested a trade from the Washington Commanders

Two-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Terry McLaurin has asked the Washington Commanders to trade him because of a contract dispute, two people with knowledge of the request told The Associated Press. Both spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the negotiations were private. McLaurin has been holding in at training camp. The veteran reported to camp Sunday after skipping the first four practices and parts of the offseason program. He remains on the physically unable to perform list with an ankle injury while contract talks continue. The Commanders reached the NFC championship game last season under first-year coach Dan Quinn and rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels. They added wideout Deebo Samuel in the offseason and are aiming to make a run at the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC East. McLaurin had 82 catches for 1,096 yards and a career-high 13 touchdowns last season, earning second-team All-Pro honors. Several star players have requested trades from their teams due to contract issues over the past few years but ended up staying put — including Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, Cleveland Browns edge rusher Myles Garrett and San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk. Samuel asked for a trade from the 49ers a few years ago only to get a new deal in San Francisco. He was traded to Washington this past offseason.
