Reddick, whose sack caused Purdy elbow injury, won’t play in 49ers-Jets It has been nearly two years since Brock Purdy completely tore the ulnar collateral ligament in his throwing elbow during the 49ers’ devastating NFC Championship Game loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

That’s because Haason Reddick, the Eagles-turned-Jets linebacker whose sack of Purdy caused the UCL tear, isn’t expected to play. Jets…

Kruk & Kuip — Inside Giant Moments I did an Inside Giant Moments podcast with the man I emulated growing up in Will Clark. Just a couple of weeks ago, our episode posted with Bruce Bochy, the man who was at the controls of the entire Giants dynasty. I felt a real responsibility when we were recording those. You get one shot to talk to people like them. ‘Don’t mess this up’ is what I kept telling myself. But by comparison, my creative nerves were at their highest when I sat down to talk with Mike Krukow & Duane Kuiper.…

Florida Gators: Florida Loses One Of Their Star Players For The Season With A Torn ACL Florida’s 2024 season didn’t start well when Miami came into their home and beat them 41-17.

San Francisco Giants announcer has hot-mic slip: ‘I gotta pee’ Sometimes, you just have to go. San Francisco Giants and NBC play-by-play announcer Duane Kuiper let the world know of his plans for the middle of the eighth inning during a hot-mic moment Wednesday. “We’ll continue this conversation when we get back, D-Backs are coming up,” Kuiper said. After a short pause, Kuiper said, “I gotta pee.” In fairness to Kuiper, his remark is on the laughable end of hot-mic moments. There was nothing incendiary about his remarks, like the time Suzyn Waldman ripped the Yankees for being “boring.” Kuiper likely…
