The Seahawks safety’s season came to a premature end on Sunday, with reports indicating he’ll undergo shoulder surgery that will sideline him for the remainder of the 2021 season. (While no one roots for injuries, the sound you hear is Jets fans taking a victory lap.) Adams’ breakup with the Jets was pretty nasty; The defensive back called out the franchise and the head coach in a now-infamous New York Daily News article in 2020, which culminated in a trade a few days later, when he was sent to the Seahawks for a pair of first-round picks, a third-rounder and safety Bradley McDougald....

State attorney William Meggs told CBSSports.com that the police probe of sexual battery allegations against the Florida State quarterback did not follow normal protocol. “Our office would have been informed about this as soon as it occurred.

With solid proof from last season, Tampa Bay still has one of the league’s best backups in Ryan Fitzpatrick. Unfortunately, it also has one of the league’s toughest early schedules. Tampa Bay opens at New Orleans, the reigning NFC South champion and heavy favorite to repeat. Then the Bucs host the Super Bowl-champion Eagles and AFC North-champion Steelers in back-to-back games. Ouch, ouch and ouch. The Bucs’ biggest problem against those teams — coming off a season in which they finished dead last in the league in total defense — will be facing three of the league’s most balanced, explosive and prolific offenses....

The 35th over of India’s innings in the 3rd ODI at the MCG saw a clash of words between India’s Virat Kohli and Australia’s James Faulkner. India had reached 171/2 in 34 overs, and Kohli and Ajinkya Rahane were at the crease with scores of 72 and 19 respectively. Even as Kohli tried to hit his shots and increase the scoring rate, Faulkner’s first four deliveries of the 35th over were stopped within the inner circle....

In a recent interview, Gunn spoke about both the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and the recently-released Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special. But more than just hyping up the two projects, he got a little personal and mused about his time with the franchise. Even if the characters move on to new iterations from different directors, this is still the end of a pretty significant chapter in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and Gunn is happy with where he’s leaving things, as well as how the Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special will lead into Vol....

“After shutting our doors more than a year ago, today we must share the difficult and sad news that Pacific will not be reopening its ArcLight Cinemas and Pacific Theatres locations,” the company said in a statement. “This was not the outcome anyone wanted, but despite a huge effort that exhausted all potential options, the company does not have a viable way forward.” With the closure comes the shuttering of several individual theatres, beloved by many, in the heart of Hollywood, including the iconic Cinerama Dome, home to many famous premiers such as Once Upon a Time in Hollywood....

Last week, Gunn shared the second trailer for his upcoming The Suicide Squad, a new take on many of the same characters that starred in David Ayer’s 2016 film, though these early previews got many fans excited about how he can bring some of the charm and humor that made Guardians of the Galaxy such a hit over to DC’s world. As for his work with Marvel, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol....

Gunn’s talent as both a screenplay writer and director was instrumental in making the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise as well known as it is today, up to the point that Star-Lord and the rest of Guardians of the Galaxy are getting a triple-A video game. The unique blend of humor and action that he brought to the Guardians films is precisely what convinced DC to book him for The Suicide Squad as Warner Bros....

In the movie, James and Hart will be brothers. Hart will step out of James' shadow when he gets to attend a fantasy basketball camp. Sports movies are generally hit-or-miss affairs, but the most interesting aspect of this project is when it was shot. The film was originally scheduled to be filmed in the summer of 2011 but was pushed back after James' Miami Heat were defeated by the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA Finals....

United head to the Netherlands for Thursday’s match looking to make it two wins from two in the Europa League this season following a hard-fought 1-0 win over Astana on matchday one. Solskjaer’s men have won just two of their past eight games in all competitions, not including the penalty shoot-out success against League One Rochdale in the EFL Cup, and scrutiny on the manager is growing. James missed the win over Astana, when Mason Greenwood scored the only goal, but is in line to make his first appearance in European competition at the Cars Jeans Stadion, the venue AZ have been using since the roof collapsed at AFAS Stadion in August....

That trio is by far the most significant in the Patriots’ front-seven, and Bill Belichick’s defense really sings with Collins’ versatility in coverage, pass rush and stopping the run. New England went full pads at Thursday’s practice, and fulcrum Collins attended for a second straight day after exiting early third quarter in the divisional round.

Arsenal Team News: Injuries, suspensions and line-up Giroud opened the scoring in Arsenal’s 2-0 Premier League win over Crystal Palace on Sunday, flicking his left boot behind him as he guided Alexis Sanchez’s cross beyond goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey and in off the post.

Current standings alone would suggest that the visitors are likely to take home all three points. However, the recent history between the two sides indicates that the capital city club have to be at the top of their game for this fixture. Last season Sendai won both at home and away. In this season`s J-League Cup group stages, they have also won one and drawn one against the league leaders....

As it turns out Star Trek Into Darkness director, J.J. Abrams was also disappointed. In a video interview with Gamer Hub, Abrams was pretty candid about his opinion on the game that was put together by Digital Extremes. Abrams spoke of his involvement with Star Trek: The Video Game and how it came to be a disappointment to him: The last game, which was obviously a big disappointment to me, was something that we were actually involved in from the very beginning and then we sort of realised that it was not going in a place where we were going to get what we wanted, so we dropped out and they continued to do it despite… y’know....

That’s probably part of the reason J.J. Watt has requested to line up at fullback during the Texans’ Christmas Day matchup against the Steelers this year.
