Making Headlines

Geoff Burke-USA TODAY Sports/Design: John Regula

Soccer: Trinity Rodman signed a four-year deal worth a reported $1.1 million with the Spirit, making the 19-year-old the highest-paid player in NWSL history. The daughter of NBA legend Dennis Rodman was the league’s Rookie of the Year in 2021.

MLB: Negotiations between the league and players association to end the lockout continued, but the sides are still far apart on several key economic issues, which could likely delay the start of spring training, according to multiple reports.

NHL: The Capitals’ Alexander Ovechkin will not participate in the 2022 NHL All-Star Game after testing positive for COVID-19. Also: The Coyotes beat the Avalanche as the biggest underdogs (+425*) since 2006.

NFL: Eagles QB Jalen Hurts will undergo ankle surgery today. He’s expected back on the field for OTAs this spring. In 15 starts, Hurts completed 61.3% of his passes for 3,144 yards and 16 touchdowns.

This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.
