The third preseason game has traditionally been the one game during the exhibition schedule where the starters get some extended playing time to prepare for the regular season a couple of weeks off. But Indianapolis coach Frank Reich told reporters Wednesday he’s sitting most of his starters against the Bears. He said he made that decision after exchanging texts with Bears coach Matt Nagy and learning Chicago plans to sit most starters....

Coming off of an eight-game suspension by the Miami Dolphins after last year’s bullying scandal, Incognito reportedly met with the Buccaneers’ brass, including head coach Lovie Smith, on Monday. On Tuesday, NFL.com reported that the league had cleared Incognito to return to play and that “several” teams were interested. Later Tuesday, the Bucs traded a fourth-round pick and second-year tight end Tim Wright for Mankins, the six-time Pro Bowler. The Bucs reportedly have not closed the door on Incognito, but the desperate need that made their meeting possible no longer existed....

Colts general manager Ryan Grigson says Luck is healthy as the team prepares to open the season against the Detroit Lions on Sunday. “No. He’s all good,” Grigson told 1070 The Fan when asked if Luck’s limited practice time was reason for concern. “I mean the guy’s thrown a zillion balls. The media’s seen it. (He was at training camp) day in and day out throwing a ton of balls with a lot of velocity — even knocking some guys over....

After the offensive onslaught the Broncos led through the league in 2013, it’s no surprise Manning is on the LVH SuperBook’s props board at 2.5 touchdowns. Before you write off three passing scores as a foregone conclusion for Manning, consider he’s without Eric Decker, who left via free agency, and Wes Welker, who is suspended for the first four games. Emmanuel Sanders replaced Decker and looked good in the preseason, but that’s preseason....

The Colts gave up a ridiculous 522 passing yards in last week’s 51-34 loss at Pittsburgh. New York had a bye week to stew over a two-game losing streak in which it was outscored 58-21. Andrew Luck leads the league with 2,731 passing yards and is tied for the NFL lead with 22 passing touchdowns. Eli Manning has gone three straight games without an interception but isn’t taking many chances downfield....

The first of three games to be played in London this season marks Jacksonville’s fourth trip to Wembley Stadium in as many years. This time, it “hosts” Indianapolis in a must-win AFC South matchup. WEEK 4 PICKS: Straight up | Against the spread The Colts, on the other hand, have never played across the pond. But they also are in need of a division win, having started the season 1-2 and chasing the 2-1 Texans....

The France international completed a permanent deal worth a total of €35million, including loan fees, in April after Bayern took up their option to buy the attacking midfielder from Juventus.

After nearly two years away from the UFC, the Irish superstar returned to action in a contentious battle against an undefeated juggernaut and well over two million people dug into their pockets in order to see what transpired. MORE: Join DAZN and watch more than 80 fight nights a year What they saw was exactly what Khabib Nurmagomedov forecasted – a one-sided mauling where he made McGregor pay for every incendiary word he offered in the build-up to the contest before forcing “The Notorious” one to submit....

The original Tweet appeared to be posted on June 19 by Sage Caswell. “Breonna Taylor’s name is no longer trending and the police that murdered her are still free. If you see this please reply/quote/tweet on your own,” the social media update read. “ARREST BRETT HANKISON, JONATHAN MATTINGLY & MYLES COSGROVE FOR THE MURDER OF #BREONNATAYLOR,” it added.

Fluctuating levels of hormones are normal among this age group, but they can lead to some challenges even for seasoned parents. Symptoms of strep throat include a sore throat, fever, headache, swollen glands in the neck, and sometimes white patches in the throat. These can also be symptoms of viral infections, though, so it’s important to see a healthcare provider if you think you might have strep. They can do an exam and swab the throat to test for the bacterium causing strep throat....

While the country is nearly two months into administering vaccines, a Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF) poll conducted between January 11 and 18 among 1,563 adults found the majority of participants are confused about the process: 60% said they did not have enough information about when people like them will be able to get the vaccine. 55% said they didn’t have enough information about where they will be able to get the vaccine (60% Black and Latino respondents; 50% of White respondents)....

The district school board will meet on Tuesday evening to discuss adding Pride flags to a list of “controversial” items barred from display inside classrooms, according to local news station WANE 15. A parent complained after a Pride flag was seen inside a classroom within Bluffton Harrison Middle School.

Red blood cell count (RBC): Red blood cells (RBCs) provide oxygen to the cells in our body. They contain hemoglobin, which is the compound which binds oxygen brought in via the lungs and delivers it to the rest of the body.

While the near-record number of open jobs has held steady, data shows that hiring slowed in the past two months. A Labor Department report released earlier in October showed that the unemployment rate fell from 5.2 percent to 4.8 percent last month. The change was due in part to more Americans finding jobs, but also because 180,000 fewer people searched for positions in September, meaning that they weren’t considered unemployed, AP reported....

For Dowling, desperate times call for desperate measures. In a significant departure from Vatican teaching, he recently became one of the first Catholic bishops to call for the church to lift its ban on condoms so that they could be used in the “fight for life” against a pandemic that has infected 4.7 million South Africans. Not surprisingly, Dowling’s stance has ignited controversy among the region’s Catholics. The debate will come to a head next Tuesday, when church leaders meet at a plenary session of the Southern African Catholic Bishops Conference (SACBC) in Pretoria....

Yes, he's been strong this year, but remember how bad he was last year at Richmond, where it was alleged that David Gilliland gave up some spots on the track just so Logano could finish well enough to make the Chase? The allegation never was proven but there was no doubt that Logano struggled to a 22nd-place finish and barely made the Chase. Logano had never won a short-track Cup event until Saturday night and he was able to go from fourth to first in the final nine laps, as Matt Kenseth, Brad Keselowski and Jeff Gordon tusseled ahead of him....

When Olson was reported missing on Thursday, police were told that the 6-year-old was taken by another individual. However, the last time he was seen by anyone outside his family was on April 30, the last day he attended school, according to Houston police. “It’s cause for concern,” Kese Smith, a public information officer for the Houston Police Department, told Newsweek when asked about the lapse in time from when he was last seen at school and the last time family members say they saw him....

I have confronted racism head-on for the past 25 years. Beating around the bush simply doesn’t work. Racism is so deeply ingrained in the fabric of American life that I have found the average white person doesn’t even notice it on most days. Newsweek is no different. In 1933, it was founded by white men, for white men, and hardly hired anybody other than white men as reporters for generations....

The delicious, yet painful, vegetable is versatile and despite it causing us to weep, we humans can’t seem to resist it. But it seems onions have the same effect on cats, as one woman discovered while dicing up ingredients for a meal. A clip shared to @jakeyy_boy’s TikTok account, called Jake Mayers on his Instagram account, showed the gray moggy sitting on the kitchen counter. As the chef chops the white onion, the cat, thought to be called Lola, looks intently at the action, before turning away, squinting her eyes....
