NFL: Earlier this week Bears GM said that Andy Dalton is the starting quarterback this year. Eagles QB changed his number from number 2 to 1. The Bengals released back up running back Gio Bernard. The Jets traded starting quarterback Sam Darnold to the Panthers for a 2021 6th round pick and a 2022 2nd round pick and a 4th round pick. Since the Jets traded their starting QB it seems as if the Jets will be selecting QB Zach Wilson out of BYU with the second pick in the draft.

Timberwolves G Malik Beasley will be out 4-6 weeks with a grade 3 left hamstring injury. Nets G James Harden will be out 10 days with a right hamstring strain but with Harden being out Durant is returning to the starting lineup on Wednesday (April 7th).

MLB: The night before the MLB season started Francisco Lindor signed a 10-year contract with the Mets worth 341 million dollars, he would be making about 34 millions dollars a year for ten years.

One thought on “Sports News 3/31/21-4/7/21

  1. Andy Dalton starting for the Bears is just a joke. They refuse to scout any real talent. Of course Andy Dalton has had many moments in his career he proved he can be an elite quarterback but last year he looked brutally bad. Bears need to fire everyone and start over. Pace and Nagy are a laughing stock at this point.
