Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears suffered a high ankle sprain in the team’s first preseason matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers earlier this month, and he’s still on the mend. According to ESPN, Spears is still in a walking boot, and will be placed on injured reserve on Tuesday. This means he will miss at least the first four games of the regular season.
The former third-round pick out of Tulane dealt with multiple injuries last season, as he missed a total of five games due to two concussions plus ankle and hamstring injuries. Spears rushed 84 times for 312 yards and four touchdowns, and caught 30 passes for 224 yards and another score.
Spears impressed as a rookie working alongside Derrick Henry, as he racked up 838 scrimmage yards and scored three total touchdowns. Those 838 yards from scrimmage ranked No. 10 among all rookies in 2023. Spears was expected to split time with Tony Pollard in 2024, but his injuries opened the door for the former Cowboy to be more of a bell cow for Brian Callahan.

Spears being placed on injured reserve at the 53-man roster deadline does have some ramifications. It likely means both Julius Chestnut and rookie Kalel Mullings will make the initial 53-man roster. The Titans also currently have Jordan Mims and Jermar Jefferson on roster at running back.

Eagle alega já ter pago empréstimos feitos pela SAF do Botafogo e pede fim de processo à Justiça
A Eagle Football Holdings alegou, em petição protocolada na Justiça do Rio no início da noite desta quarta-feira, que já pagou a dívida de R$ 152 milhões cobradas pela SAF do Botafogo e pediu a extinção do processo em que o clube cobra o pagamentos dos empréstimos. Na mesma petição, a Eagle também pediu que seja revogada a decisão que arrestou as ações da holding na SAF, impedindo mudanças societárias e mantendo Textor à frente da operação. Segundo o documento, o processo de cobrança da dívida ajuizado pela SAF “é reflexo da confusão contábil instaurada pelo Sr. Textor nas relações intercompany, enquanto ainda estava na gestão em todas as frentes. Assim, ao mover execuções não lastreadas e inseridas em uma confusa contabilidade única, o Sr. Textor procura se servir dos processos para pressionar a Eagle Bidco e, com isso, se […]
