The Chicago Bears added some salsa to the roster Thursday, signing former New York Giants receiver Victor Cruz to a one-year contract. Cruz has 303 career catches for 4,549 yards and 25 touchdowns. Carolina linebacker Luke Kuechly has no plans to alter his aggressive style of play following a second concussion in November, one that tugged at the emotions of a national TV audience when he was carted off the field sobbing uncontrollably. The 2014 NFL Defensive Player of the Year still doesn’t like talking about that frightening Thursday night game and is clearly itching to put concussion talk behind him and prove to doubters he’ll be just fine this coming season. “You don’t play the game and think about getting hurt because that slows you down and increases the likelihood of getting hurt,” Kuechly said after a morning practice session. The Giants ended their first week of voluntary organized team activities missing two of their biggest stars — wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr.

  • Rockies rally from five runs down with six-run eighth, beat Padres 10-9 in largest comeback of season
    Denver Post, Thursday - 04/25/2024 - 06:50 PM

    In the eighth inning of Thursday’s series finale against San Diego, the Rockies’ offense transformed into the Big Purple Machine. Colorado batted around in that frame to erase a five-run deficit, plating six runs in the process. After closer Justin Lawrence cemented the team’s largest comeback of the season with a save in the ninth, the result was a signature moment of positivity amid a spring full of struggles. Yes, the Rockies (7-19) have still yet to win a series in eight tries after splitting with San Diego, surpassing last season’s futility in that regard while also setting a franchise record to start a season.

  • How can Nuggets maximize Nikola Jokic’s defense in playoffs? “I’m not really good defensively one-on-one”
    Denver Post, Thursday - 04/25/2024 - 05:04 PM

    If the annual playoff referendum on Nikola Jokic’s defense has already commenced, Jokic himself might have put an amusing stop to it during the first round. As self-deprecating as ever, he didn’t mince words when asked how he can guard Lakers center Anthony Davis better after a barrage of buckets forced Michael Malone to cross-match, hiding Jokic on a lesser scoring threat in Game 2. “He’s an offensive monster, and defensive, too,” Jokic said.
