The 2025 NFL Draft is still a few weeks away, but the New York Giants may have found their top pick. Penn State edge rusher Abdul Carter fueled speculation he’ll go to New York at No. 3 overall by posting a picture of a franchise legend on X on Friday.
Carter sent out an image of Hall of Fame linebacker Lawrence Taylor. Carter’s picture appeared to be a poster from the Giants’ facility. The bottom of the poster has a quote from Taylor which reads, “Once a Giant, always a Giant.”
The post doesn’t necessarily mean anything. But it’s probably telling that Carter posted a picture of Taylor and not another pass-rushing legend.

The Giants are in the running to select Carter with the No. 3 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Some thought the team would consider a quarterback with that selection, but that’s not as pressing with both Jameis Winston and Russell Wilson in town.
While the Giants tied for eighth with 45 sacks last season, Carter is too good a prospect to pass up. Throughout the entire draft season, he’s been one of the top-ranked prospects in the entire class and is a near lock to go within the top-5 picks.
After showing flashes as a freshman and sophomore, Carter took his production to the next level as a senior at Penn State. The 21-year-old notched 68 combined tackles, including 12 sacks and a conference-leading 24 tackles for loss.
With the Giants’ quarterback situation under control in 2025, the team can focus on building up the rest of its roster. While an offensive lineman could also be in play at No. 3 overall, it’s tough to argue against Carter.

SAN FRANCISCO — Game 3 of the Golden State Warriors' first-round series with the Houston Rockets on Saturday was nothing short of a slugfest. They took part in a physical battle all night with bodies hitting the floor from the opening tip through the final buzzer.Missing Jimmy Butler, the Warriors relied on their depth and defense, while the Rockets couldn't contain Stephen Curry or buy a bucket late in the contest. By night's end, one team's poise and a familiar superstar's brilliance proved to be the difference as Golden State secured a 104-93 victory and a 2-1 series lead.Another 'Stephortless' performanceCurry did that thing where he takes over a game in its most pivotal moments — hitting dagger 3s, converting crafty layups and exploiting any mismatch on a big.Game 3 was no different.

Cardinals 2025 NFL Draft takeaways: Building a dominant D one pick at a time
General manager Monti Ossenfort insisted the Arizona Cardinals didn’t enter the NFL Draft with intentions to load up on defense — that’s just how their board fell. That might be the case, but the results don’t lie. Over the last three days, Arizona positioned itself for an immediate defensive upgrade.AdvertisementThrough five rounds, it was almost as if no other needs mattered. Offensive line? Not this early. Wide receiver? Not this weekend. The Cardinals selected Ole Miss defensive tackle Walter Nolen at 16. “Come out here and get after the quarterback,” Ossenfort told him on the phone.) They took Michigan corner Will Johnson at 47. (“Come help us win some games,” head coach Jonathan Gannon told him.)In the third round, the Cardinals took Oregon edge rusher Jordan Burch. In the fourth, Ohio State linebacker Cody Simon. In the fifth, Ohio State […]
Artem Zub’s hit on John Tavares and the ripple effect for the Maple Leafs in Game 4
OTTAWA — The Toronto Maple Leafs saw one of their top performers in this first-round series sprawled out on the ice during overtime and they must have noticed that John Tavares was unavailable to occupy his usual spot at the net front during the four-minute power play that followed with a chance to sweep away the Ottawa Senators.AdvertisementBut none of them would cop to knowing anything about the unpenalized Artem Zub hit that sent him to the dressing room for more than 10 minutes on Saturday night.“I haven’t seen it, so I have no clue,” said William Nylander.“Honestly, I haven’t seen it,” said Matthew Knies. “I haven’t looked at it yet, so I can’t speak on it.”“You know what, I didn’t see it,” said Oliver Ekman-Larsson. “So I can’t comment about that one. I saw that he laid down. I […]

Rossi x Hugo: jogo entre Flamengo e Corinthians marca encontro do presente e passado do gol rubro-negro
Durante cerca de cinco anos, a escalação do Flamengo em sua geração vitoriosa se iniciou com Diego Alves, goleiro que transmitia segurança tanto no lado técnico quanto emocional. Em suas ausências — por lesões ou pela despedida, no fim de 2022 — o time viveu momentos de instabilidade no gol. E o duelo de hoje contra o Corinthians, às 16h, pela 6ª rodada do Brasileirão, coloca frente a frente os dois nomes que mais se destacaram nesse período: Rossi, titular desde 2023, e Hugo Souza, revelado no clube, mas que encontrou estabilidade apenas no futebol paulista. Hoje, o argentino é absoluto na meta rubro-negra. São 17 jogos no ano e total confiança de Filipe Luís, que valoriza sua qualidade com os pés — essencial em um time que evita chutões. Rossi chegou ao clube em julho de 2023, após o […]
