No. 7 Georgia Tech will be without three starters -- wide receiver Malik Rutherford, center Harrison Moore and nickelback Jy Gilmore -- against Syracuse on Saturday. All three were ruled out on the ACC availability report after suffering injuries during last week's win over Duke. Rutherford is tied for the Yellow Jackets lead with 23 receptions and two receiving touchdowns this season and ranks third on the team with 202 receiving yards.

The former ninth overall pick, Murray-Boyles, missed the team's last preseason game against the Brooklyn Nets with the same injury, with head coach Darko Rajakovic calling the issue day-to-day. Murray Boyles averaged 6.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 2.7 assists over three preseason games. Yet his impact has jumped off the screen far more than the numbers indicated, particularly on the defensive end.

The Current fell 1-0 to the Houston Dash on Saturday, but it's star Temwa Chawinga that may go down as the far more impactful loss. After suffering a non-contact injury in the first half, the forward was carried off the field. While the severity of the injury isn't known, Kansas City head coach Vlatko Andonovski said after the game that Chawinga's injury was in the "upper leg" rather than the knee. Even so, plenty of folks in Kansas City will be holding their breath.

The Knicks are stocked with talent but also are laden with expectations with fans desperate for the team to make the NBA Finals for the first time since 1999. The Knicks could take a minute or two to adjust to coach Mike Brown's fast-paced offense, but as long as Jalen Brunson remains healthy, they have a solid chance of coming out of the East.

We checked Noah yesterday and he seems okay. We will see after the training sessions, today and tomorrow, if he will be available for this weekend - but we are positive. It's still possible that his injury is worse than we think but, at the minute, he is okay. He has had this injury before so he knows how it evolves and how serious it is. It's positive at the minute, but we will see.

"There may be opinions that must be respected, without a doubt, but I want to avoid any kind of controversy," said Louzan, who stressed that the relationship with the clubs is "practically perfect." He added, "Right now, there is extraordinary coordination with the sporting directors of each of the clubs in Spain, as well as at the international level.

England face Brazil at Etihad Stadium in a friendly on Saturday, 25 October (17:30 BST), before hosting Australia at Pride Park on Tuesday, 28 October (19:00 GMT). However, it has been a difficult start to the season for some Lionesses who have been recovering from lengthy injuries. It is almost three months since they beat Spain in a dramatic final penalty shootout so what could change and what are the main questions for Wiegman?

"And I'm not being combative right now," Redick said. "I just want to acknowledge that you guys, like the last four days, like it's becoming a little bit obsessive with all these questions about opportunities lost. So, I will answer it again. These are the cards that we were dealt. I sure would like everybody to be healthy."

Since time has no meaning, my brain didn't twig to the fact that Boyd was starting on short rest until about an hour before game time, despite spending a bunch of time crunching the numbers to write the preview and I didn't even notice. Boyd had absolutely nothing in the tank in this one, and a completely uncharacteristic / Devil Magic induced error by Nico Hoerner turned it from bad to worse.

The major knee injury suffered by New York Giants star wide receiver Malik Nabers has reignited discussions about the turf playing surface at MetLife Stadium. One executive from an opposing team said this week that, due to the FieldTurf playing surface, his players are "petrified" of playing at MetLife. The executive added that if a player is nursing an injury, he might be less apt to play through it for a game at MetLife.

Arsenal are reportedly ready to consider selling Gabriel Jesus for around 30-35m, with three clubs showing an interest in the Brazilian forward. Jesus is currently out injured and has generally had a lot of fitness problems during his time at the Emirates Stadium. This means we haven't really seen the best of Jesus at Arsenal, and it perhaps makes sense that the Gunners are now prepared to let him go if the opportunity arises.

FC Bayern Women defender Vanessa Gilles sustained a muscle injury in her lower leg in the DFB Cup match at Borussia Dortmund on Monday evening, scans have confirmed. The 29-year-old Canadian will therefore be sidelined for several weeks. Gilles moved to Munich in the summer and has scored three goals in six appearances in all competitions.

The A's will place Gelof on the 10-day injured list tomorrow, and needless to say, Gelof's 2025 season is now officially over. The dislocated shoulder is a rough ending to a season already marked by notable injuries for the 25-year-old infielder, as hamate bone surgery and then a stress reaction in his ribcage prevented Gelof from making his 2025 debut until July 4.

Image source, SNS Hearts will be without record signing Eduardo Ageu for Saturday's visit to Rangers and the Brazilian midfielder may be a doubt for the Edinburgh derby against Hibernian at Tynecastle on 4 October. The 23-year-old has picked up a hamstring problem, while defender Frankie Kent will also miss the Premiership trip to Ibrox. Ageu made his debut as a second-half substitute at Livingston after a seven-figure transfer from Portuguese club Santa Clara late last month.

To kick things off, Atlanta will tangle with the divisional rival Bucs, where they enter as 1.5-point underdogs in Mercedes-Benz Stadium, per FanDuel Sportsbook. The Bucs also sit as -120 favorites to take home the NFC South crown once again. Atlanta can use Week 1 to put the division on notice with that slight upset win, and they'll lean heavily on running back Bijan Robinson to keep the chains moving and allow quarterback Michael Penix Jr. to pick his shots downfield.

Christian Garcia's first-half own goal and Declan Rice's header after the break ensured England extended their perfect 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign to four wins and moved five points clear at the top of Group K with victory over Andorra. Centre-back Garcia headed Arsenal forward Madueke's right-wing cross past Iker Alvarez in the 25th minute after the Three Lions, who are 170 places above Andorra in the rankings, had struggled to test the goalkeeper during the early stages at Villa Park.
