LeBron James was in his bag from the very first quarter of the gold medal game against France. The Los Angeles Lakers star James went viral on Saturday for the unbelievable pass that he threw to USA teammate Devin Booker midway through the first quarter. James dribbled past France’s Isaïa Cordinier and was quickly met by Victor Wembanyama in the paint. Somehow, James had the audacity to throw a behind-the-back pass to a cutting Booker, who scored the easy layup. Here is the video of James’ wild pass. This pass from LeBron is just insane pic.twitter.com/B4vpnyJT9X — Jomboy Media (@JomboyMedia)…

Mandatory Credit: Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports Rob Gronkowski thinks he knows which way the New England Patriots’ quarterback situation is headed, and he believes the team needs to make one big move for its own good. In a Friday appearance on FS1’s “First Things First,” Gronkowski argued that the Patriots are doing rookie quarterbacks Drake Maye and Joe Milton a disservice by keeping Bailey Zappe involved in camp. In Gronkowski’s eyes, Zappe is just taking reps away from the rookies, and will…
Washington Commanders rookie Jayden Daniels only got one drive in Saturday’s preseason opener against the New York Jets. However, he made the most of it by scoring on a three-yard run. Daniels was very impressive on his lone drive, which also included a 42-yard pass to help move the Commanders down the field. He seemed to have thought ahead about what he might do if he did score, as he ran immediately to his mother after converting from three yards out and handed her the ball. Commanders QB Jayden Daniels first drive in NFL: •42 yard bomb•marches down the field•walks…
Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin liked what he saw from Justin Fields during the quarterback’s preseason debut Friday, but one issue marred the entire performance in his eyes. Fields went 5-for-6 passing for 67 yards, but fumbled a snap on two drives in a 20-12 loss to Houston. As far as Tomlin was concerned, the two failed snap exchanges negated the rest of the performance. “I thought he did some nice things,” Tomlin said, via Brooke Pryor of ESPN. “But obviously he was a component of the C-Q exchange, and from my perspective that’s dual responsibility on the center and…

NFL specialists are generally quiet and subdued. With the exception of Pat McAfee before his retirement, they tend to stick to themselves and avoid stirring the pot. But Houston Texans punter Tommy Townsend decided to buck that trend on Friday night. Midway through the second quarter of a game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Townsend boomed a punt down the field that was muffed by wide receiver Quez Watkins. After the ball was recovered by Houston, Townsend had a little something to say. The Texans have been talking trash all pre-season. Apparently it’s rubbed off on new punter, Tommy Townsend 😂…
