The Miami Dolphins suffered quite the scare on the first day of training camp. According to CBS News, offensive lineman Bayron Matos was seriously injured at the end of the practice session Wednesday, and was airlifted to the Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital via helicopter. The Dolphins did not reveal what injury Matos suffered, but they did say he was stable.
Matos is set to enter his second NFL season after going undrafted last year out of South Florida. He was born in the Dominican Republic but moved to Tennessee at 16 years old. The 6-foot-7 athlete initially attended the University of New Mexico to play basketball after a successful high school career, but then transferred to South Florida to continue his hoop dreams. However, in 2022, Matos walked on to the Bulls’ football team, and started training as a defensive end and designated “kick blocker” on special teams before moving to the offensive line.

Matos was announced as one of the 16 members of the International Player Pathway in 2024 and worked out for scouts at IMG Academy prior to the draft. He performed well enough for some evaluators to believe he could be a late-round pick, but ultimately went undrafted and landed with Miami.

Trpišovský: Čelili jsme brutální kvalitě. Kluci museli jít za hranu
Bergamo (od našeho zpravodaje) – Jedna, dvě, tři zahozené šance. Italští fanoušci i novináři se rozčilovali nad tím, jak jejich tým marně hledal recept na výborně chytajícího Jakuba Markoviče.V táboře sešívaných naopak panovala spokojenost. Kouč Slavie v tiskovém centru bergamského stadionu nešetřil chválou. „Byli jsme jako jedno velké srdce a nechali jsme tam všechno. I proto jsme byli odměněni v klíčových momentech,“ říkal Trpišovský.Pocity jsou tedy diametrálně odlišné oproti poslednímu výjezdu na sever Itálie?Ten výsledek je pro nás samozřejmě mnohem příznivější. Máme bod a radost z toho, že nám to konečně běhalo. V posledních týdnech jsme nebyli fyzicky tam, kde jsme potřebovali, ale už na tréninku bylo cítit, že z kluků jde síla. A přenesli si ji i do zápasu. Vymáčkli ze sebe maximum proti brutální kvalitě soupeře a několikrát jsme šli za hranu. Měli jsme i trochu štěstí.Odrazil se tým od výkonu Jakuba Markoviče?Ukázal svou rychlost i reflex, pomohl mu tým a mám z něj obrovskou […]

Aaron Rodgers had a pretty good reason for lighting up one of his offensive lineman during their 33-31 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night.He’s old.The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback was brought down by left tackle Broderick Jones while the two were celebrating a 68-yard touchdown pass to tight end Pat Freiermuth. Jones hopped on Rodgers’ back, which sent them crashing down to the field. Rodgers, naturally, wasn’t happy with him and shoved him hard when the two got back up to their feet.Rodgers was asked about that exchange Wednesday.“What you don’t see in the video is right after the throw, he’s coming over to me and shaking me and shaking me. I texted him I said, ‘Hey, I love your energy, I love everything you’re about. But also, I’m 41. You can’t be out there tackling me.’”Honestly, fair.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementRodgers finished […]
