He’s a true hero, not just on-screen,” host KeKe Palmer stated of the “Black Panther” actor. “His impact lives forever.” At simply 43 years previous, Boseman died Friday after privately combating colon most cancers for 4 years. Moments after, the Weeknd introduced his “Blinding Lights” tune video — the place he's bruised and blooded in a crimson swimsuit — to lifestyles. He carried out the upbeat No. 1 hit at the aspect of a New York high-rise construction. DaBaby, sponsored through the

Bears anticipating Piñeiro to kick vs. Vikings

When the Bears traded for Eddy Piñeiro in May, they not solely acquired a kicker, they obtained a soccer participant. “You know there’s going to be a little bit of pain there, but there’s nothing structurally wrong,” Bears particular groups coordinator Chris Tabor stated Thursday at Halas Hall. “There’s a lot of players out there playing through pain and that’s no different.” The Bears are persevering with to nurse Piñeiro by way of a knee damage he suffered final week and stay hopeful he'll be capable of kick Sunday in opposition to the Vikings at Soldier Field. “I mean, he played last week, so …” Tabor stated, a sign that

Bears’ Cody Parkey’s Missed Kick Made Eagles’ Nick Foles Some Extra Money

Nick Foles came just four plays short of earning himself a million dollars in last Sunday’s matchup after he injured his ribs, but he didn’t miss out in the NFC Wild Card game. The Philadelphia Eagles quarterback had many reasons to celebrate Sunday after his team defeated the Chicago Bears in dramatic fashion (and heartbreaking fashion for Bears’ fans) to earn a spot in the NFC Divisional Round, where they will take on Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints. But aside from the win, Foles earned himself that extra million he missed out on just seven days ago, thanks in part to Chicago kicker Cody Parkey missing what would have been a

Should Patriots Kick The Tires On Dion Jordan After Release From Dolphins?

Share this: Once upon a time, Dion Jordan seemed like the kind of player Bill Belichick could only dream of having on his New England Patriots. Jordan, who once was rumored to be selected first overall in the 2013 draft, was 6-foot-6, 248 pounds when coming out of Oregon and seemed to have the length to rush the passer from the edge and the athleticism to drop back into coverage. It’s why he was picked third overall by the Miami Dolphins despite undergoing shoulder surgery months before the draft. The Patriots even brought him in for an official visit before the draft that year while knowing there was little to no chance they could take him. Needless to say, the Dolphins probably would like to have the
