Saints 2024 rookie wide receiver has been cleared from his ankle injury

One of the Saints 2024′ draft selections has been cleared of his ankle injury after missing the second half of last season. Bub Means won’t be limited to start the spring:

The New Orleans Saints’ injury bug is a brutal one, and in the 2024 season they dealt with injuries at pretty much any position you can think of. One of the positions hit the hardest was the wide receivers, including Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed, and Bub Means early on.

The rookie of the group, Means, suffered a high-ankle sprain during Week 8 of the season, and would end up missing the remainder of the year recovering from it. He initially tried to come back from injured reserve but suffered a setback in practice and was shut down. Means did look strong when his playing time got bumped up, and having him alongside the previous two mentioned would make for a pretty solid receiving core heading into 2025.

Having Means fully healthy will also help his development throughout the offseason, and will allow him to get up to speed with whoever the new head coach becomes for the Saints as well.

14 players listed on Eagles’ injury reports ahead of Super Bowl LIX

14 players were listed on the Philadelphia #Eagles’ injury report heading into their Super Bowl LIX matchup against the Kansas City #Chiefs.

The Philadelphia Eagles may be without a few key players when they square off against the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX.

Philadelphia listed 14 players on its injury reports this week, though many of the biggest stars who were held out of practice were not dealing with any condition that would have affected their ability to run drills.

Instead, players like running back Saquon Barkley, wide receiver A.J. Brown, and tight end Dallas Goedert were simply given the week off to rest.

However, key starters like wideout DeVonta Smith, offensive lineman Landon Dickerson, and Cam Jeurgens were all non-participants in the Eagles’ practice sessions.

Check out Philadelphia’s full injury report below;

The Chiefs are entering next week’s game with far fewer injury concerns than the Eagles.

Stay tuned to see how Philadelphia’s injuries impact the Eagles’ ability to perform against Kansas City on both sides of the ball in Super Bowl LIX on February 9.

Door still open for Florida center to return this season, per report

Florida center Micah Handlogten has rehabbed hard after suffering a broken leg in the SEC Championship Game last year and could return to the Gators this year.

There’s a good chance that even first-year Florida basketball fans know who [autotag]Micah Handlogten[/autotag] is. He’s the 7-foot-1-inch guy on the bench with curly hair who is always celebrating whenever the Gators do something positive.

Handlogten is also the team’s starting center, or at least he would be if he weren’t still rehabbing a broken leg suffered in the SEC Tournament Championship Game last season. When Handlogten went down, the question quickly became whether he would be able to play competitive basketball again.

The answer to that question is yes, and potentially soon.

Rumors began to swirl ahead of Florida’s matchup with Georgia that Handlogten would rejoin his teammates on the court Saturday. While those claims are false, Zach Abolverdi of Gators Online is reporting that Handlogten is “participating in practice and has been cleared to play.”

There’s a decision to be made on redshirting, though, and he needs to feel ready for postseason play. If both of those boxes are checked, Florida’s frontcourt rotation could receive a huge boost in the next few weeks.

Handlogten is a presence down low who averaged 5.3 points and 6.9 rebounds per game for the Gators through 33 games last year. He’s similar to Alex Condon and has experience playing with him. Should Handlogten return, he’d likely come off the bench alongside Sam Alexis and Thomas Haugh and take more minutes from the former. Rueben Chinyelu doesn’t play full starter minutes anyway.

“Obviously, being an athlete for as long as I have, I just want to play,” Handlogten said after in April. “I play basketball because I love the game. So, it was a tough one, but at the same time, I had to put my body above my thoughts right now.”

He added, “Thinking I want to play and actually being ready to play is two completely different things. And so, I decided that I would rather not rush myself back in and I would take my time and have a full recovery.”

Here is the latest SEC availability report ahead of No. 13 Texas A&M vs. Texas

Here is the latest SEC Availability report for Texas A&M and Texas ahead of Saturday’s matchup

No. 13 Texas A&M (15-4, 4-2 SEC) will travel to Austin (TX) on Saturday afternoon to face the Texas Longhorns (13-6, 2-4 SEC). The Aggies are looking to sweep their rival for the first time in more than a decade.

While both teams are coming off close victories, Texas A&M’s emotional 63-62 stunner against No. 16 Ole Miss on the road was highly impressive, as the mainstream college basketball media took notice due to the Aggies’ grit and determination amid poor offense, as star guard Wade Taylor IV produced just four points off a 2-12 shooting night.

Trailing 62-60 with 19 seconds left, senior guard Zhuric Phelps found fellow senior Manny Obaseki for a clutch 3-pointer and combined with a defensive stop; the Aggies escaped Oxford with their sixth Quad 1 victory.

Texas defended home court on Tuesday night to give credit where credit is due, defeating No. 22 Missouri 61-53. The Longhorn defense held the Tigers to just 18.2% from beyond the arc, while Texas guard Tre Johnson and forward Arthur Kaluma combined for 26 points and 16 rebounds.

However, according to the latest SEC availability report, Texas A&M is entirely healthy going into the matchup, while Texas will be without Chendall Weaver, and Arthur Kaluma is listed as probable.

Texas A&M will stay on the road when they travel to Austin to face Texas on Jan. 25 at 1:30 p.m. CST. The game can be watched on ESPN2.

Commanders vs. Eagles: Thursday injury report ahead of NFC championship

The second injury report of the week is out ahead of the NFC championship.

The Washington Commanders and Philadelphia Eagles were back on the practice field Thursday, ahead of Sunday’s NFC championship game.

Four players missed practice for Washington. One of those is right guard Sam Cosmi, who will soon be placed on season-ending injured reserve. Cosmi suffered an ACL injury in last week’s win over the Detroit Lions.

Third-string quarterback Jeff Driskel, defensive tackle Daron Payne, and linebacker Bobby Wagner also missed Thursday’s practice. Remember, Wagner missed multiple practices last week and played against Detroit. There’s no way he will miss this game. As for Payne, he injured his finger two weeks ago in Tampa but is now listed as having a knee injury.

Here’s Washington’s injury report:

As for the Eagles, all eyes are on quarterback Jalen Hurts. He was on the practice field Thursday. Hurts injured his knee in Sunday’s win over the Rams.

Something to monitor for the Eagles is center Cam Jurgens. Left guard Landon Dickerson took snaps at center with Tyler Steen at left guard. Dickerson played center at Alabama. However, it appears precautionary as head coach Nick Sirianni indicated Jurgens would practice.

We will update the Eagles’ full injury report once they make it available.

Texas A&M basketball vs. LSU injury report reveals good news for the Aggies

Texas A&M senior guard Wade Taylor IV Is off the latest injury report, and will likely play vs. LSU

No. 10 Texas A&M (13-4, 2-2 SEC) will host LSU (12-5 1-3 SEC) on Saturday night.

After the Aggies dropped consecutive games against Alabama and Kentucky over the last six days, the loss of star guard Wade Taylor IV began to show its impact during both losses, as the offense looked disjointed without Taylor’s leadership.

On Friday, coach Buzz Williams provided a cryptic but revealing statement regarding Taylor’s injury status, basically saying that he’ll play when he’s 100% healthy, and according to the latest SEC-mandated availability report revealed no players included for Texas A&M, meaning Wade Taylor will return against the Tigers tomorrow night.

This is significant news for the Aggies, who should finally look improved on offense. It will allow senior guards Zhuric Phelps and Manny Obaseki to focus on scoring instead of running the point. At the same time, Taylor’s vision and playmaking prowess will restore A&M’s clutch shooting late in games.

Even after missing the last three games, Taylor leads the Aggies in scoring (15.7 ppg) and remains the most dependable three-point threat on the roster.

Texas A&M will return home to face LSU at Reed Arena on Jan. 18 at 7:30 p.m. CST. The game can be watched on SEC Network.
