The Chiefs receiver is inactive for Week 4 but is set to undergo imaging tests on the shoulder injury he suffered in Week 1 to determine how much longer he’ll be out, according to ESPN. ESPN’s report states Hill could be back in two weeks at the earliest, and he even took part in warmups Sunday ahead of Kansas City’s matchup against Detroit. But the Chiefs won’t rush things, as they’re doing just fine without their star wideout so far this season....

Fury’s previous five bouts have taken place in the United States, including all three of his thrilling trilogy against Deontay Wilder. Whyte has endured an arduous and sometimes perilous wait for his shot. He will have been the WBC’s number-one ranked contender for 1,634 days by the time the first bell sounds on April 23.

Since then, Depay has failed to live up to his price-tag. There have been flashes of brilliance, but Jose Mourinho has wielded the axe, and authorised a sale to Lyon, where Depay will wear the No.9 jersey.

You Can Now Retweet Like You Normally Would Twitter started discouraging Retweets in October 2020. Anytime you tried to Retweet content on the platform, you’d be presented with a prompt that would ask you to Quote Tweet instead.

He was suckered into publicly clinking champagne glasses with Li Peng, the prime minister who’d ordered the assault on student demonstrations in Tiananmen Square in 1989....

“Four commentators together in the commentary box,” I thought to myself as I vainly watched the Australian equivalent of IPL, The Big Bash League’s Final. This could be a great idea for a write-up that I may like to publish on Sportskeeda (and then shamelessly pimp/plug on my Facebook/ Twitter page so that the people I hardly know may know how big shot I am) was my second thought....

Just who is this Tyler Wong? The simple answer is that Wong is the player who scored Vegas’ first-ever goal and recorded its first hat trick and four-point game on Sunday. The bigger story is that he is an undersized, undrafted rookie pro, who is actually in training camp on an AHL contract with the Chicago Wolves.
