The New England Patriots have enjoyed a return home after three straight away games in Weeks 5, 6 and 7. And while winning on the road is always great, star defensive tackle Milton Williams has a new challenge for the team as they prepare for their upcoming contest at Gillette Stadium. Playing three straight games on the road is always a challenge, but the Patriots made it look easy, as they picked up victories over the Buffalo Bills, New Orleans Saints and Tennessee Titans, which was the first time in franchise history the team had ever won three straight away…

BROOKLINE – The intriguing aspect of this year’s revamped NEPSAC alignment? Sometimes there are games that deliver, and then some. In an instant classic, Avon Old Farms found out just why Saturday evening. Junior quarterback Matthew Baer (158 yards passing, 79 yards rushing, three touchdowns) scampered for the game-winning 33-yard score with 1:03 left in regulation, as the Winged Beavers (7-0) remained perfect with an unforgettable 29-28 road win over Dexter Southfield. “It was a massive game for sure,” Baer said. “This game had our whole entire season on the line, so we knew we had to drive up two…
BOSTON – It took a timely corner kick, but Latin Academy came away with its fourth straight Boston City League title Saturday afternoon. The Dragons used a quick corner to confuse the O’Bryant defense in what ended up being the lone goal of the contest in a 1-0 victory at Madison Park/O’Bryant. “It feels good,” said first-year head coach Saddene Green. “The girls worked hard all season. We had 12 seniors this year, so it’s a great way to kind of send our senior players off.” After a relatively quiet first half that saw just two shots on goal for…
The New England Patriots will square off against the Cleveland Browns in Week 8, and this appears to be a matchup between two teams heading in opposite directions when it comes to their quarterback room. While the Patriots seem to have their franchise quarterback in Drake Maye, the Browns have a big question mark under center in Dillon Gabriel. Cleveland’s quarterback room was one of the biggest storylines ahead of the 2025 season after they selected both Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders in the 2025 NFL Draft. With Joe Flacco and Kenny Pickett in town, nobody really knew who would start…

The Patriots boosted their running back and safety depth Saturday by elevating running back Terrell Jennings and safety Richie Grant from the practice squad to the active roster for Sunday’s game against the Browns. Jennings has now been elevated three straight weeks. If the Patriots plan to use him again, they’ll need to sign him to the 53-man roster since practice squad players have a max three elevations. This is Grant’s first elevation since being signed to the practice squad Oct. 15. A 2021 second-round pick, Grant was a starter for two seasons with the Falcons. He’s also spent time…
NEW YORK (AP) — The head coach of the Portland Trail Blazers and a player for the Miami Heat were arrested Thursday along with more than 30 other people in a takedown of two sprawling gambling operations that authorities said leaked inside information about NBA athletes and rigged poker games backed by Mafia families.Portland coach Chauncey Billups was charged with participating in a conspiracy to fix high-stakes card games tied to La Cosa Nostra organized crime families that cheated unsuspecting gamblers out of at least $7 million. Heat guard Terry Rozier was accused in a separate scheme of exploiting private information about players to win bets on NBA games.The two…
The Boston Celtics are still searching for their first win of the 2025-26 season, as they suffered a 105-95 defeat at the hands of the New York Knicks on Friday night. While the C’s only lost one quarter in the game, the 28-point margin of defeat in the second quarter ended up being too much for the team to overcome. Injuries have already become a major storyline for Boston, and the season is just two games old. Obviously, Jayson Tatum is still recovering from a torn Achilles tendon, but Jaylen Brown is also dealing with a nagging hamstring injury he…
After the slightest bit of suspense, the Jason Varitek situation has been resolved. Varitek will return to Alex Cora’s coaching staff in 2026, in the same position of game-planning coordinator and run-prevention coach (go ahead and feel free to roll your eyes at that one). Next year will mark Tek’s 30th season with the Red Sox. It will also be his 15th year since his retirement, meaning he’ll have spent as much time with the Red Sox in a non-playing capacity as he did as a player. (Alex Speier, Boston Globe)So the coaching staff in 2026 will look almost exactly…
