INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indianapolis waived three-time All-Pro linebacker Shaquille Leonard on Tuesday in a surprising move after the Colts played themselves back into the playoff race. Indy (5-5) was trying to bring back the playmaking linebacker slowly after undergoing two back surgeries to repair a nerve injury. “Indy, I want to thank you for accepting me and my family with open arms," Leonard wrote in part in a social media post. “We are incredibly grateful for his contributions to the team and the city of Indianapolis over the last six seasons. "Off the field, he’s a servant leader and assisted numerous families in both his hometown and the Indianapolis community.

The phenomenon of active athletes hosting podcasts largely started in the N.B.A., where players can command more attention because there are smaller rosters and more frequent games. Early entries included JJ Redick’s “The Vertical” in 2016 and Richard Jefferson and Channing Frye’s “Road Trippin’” in 2017. Podcasting is particularly attractive to players who are still generating N.F.L. Hill said he started his podcast, “It Needed to Be Said,” partly to prepare for a potential broadcasting career. Brands such as Bleacher Report, which works with Parsons and Miller, have increasingly signed up athletes.

Nov 12 (Reuters) - New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick blamed "missed opportunities" after a dispiriting 10-6 loss to the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday as the once mighty NFL franchise cratered to their worst record through 10 games in more than two decades. "Obviously a disappointing game - similar theme that we've had other games this year: just too many missed opportunities," Belichick told reporters. "Just got to play better situational football and do a better job taking advantage of the opportunities we have." "When people (are) talking about 'Should Bill Belichick be fired mid-season?' Belichick and the team will have an extended period to regroup as the Patriots are on a bye week before facing the New York Giants on the road.

REUTERS/Brendan McDermid Acquire Licensing RightsNov 8 (Reuters) - U.S. agricultural chemical and seed company Corteva (CTVA.N) on Wednesday reported a smaller third-quarter loss, helped by higher prices for its seeds. Corteva's third-quarter seed net sales rose to $878 million from $862 million a year earlier. However, sales volumes declined as a result of its exit from Russia and lower-than-expected corn planted area in Brazil. Corteva posted a net loss of $321 million, or 45 cents per share, in the quarter ended Sept. 30, compared with a loss of $331 million, or 46 cents per share, a year earlier.

The FDA approved tirzepatide for weight loss under the brand name Zepbound. It has been available as Mounjaro for type 2 diabetes since 2022 and had increasingly been used "off-label" for weight loss while the obesity approval was pending. Zepbound will be available in the U.S. by the end of the year at a list price of $1,059.87 a month, according to Lilly. That compares with a list of $1,349 per-package for Novo Nordisk's (NOVOb.CO) wildly popular weight-loss drug Wegovy. After Wednesday's FDA approval, Lilly can now promote the drug for weight loss.

(AP) — Indiana's attorney general violated professional conduct rules in statements he made about a doctor who provided an abortion to a 10-year-old rape victim from Ohio in the weeks after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last summer, according to a court opinion filed Thursday. At the time, Ohio law prohibited abortions after six weeks of pregnancy but the girl could still be provided a legal abortion in Indiana. The opinion specifically faulted Rokita for describing Bernard on the show as an “abortion activist acting as a doctor — with a history of failing to report" instances of abuse. In his statement, Rokita said he signed an affidavit to bring the proceedings to a close and to “save a lot of taxpayer money and distraction." Within weeks of Bernard's July 2022 interview about providing the abortion, Indiana became the first state to approve abortion restrictions after the U.S. Supreme Court ended constitutional protections.

(AP) — An Indiana Moms for Liberty chapter has followed the conservative group’s national playbook, challenging diversity, equity and inclusion efforts in school districts as part of its “parental rights” mission. Democratic candidate and Carmel city councilman Miles Nelson asked his opponent on stage earlier this month to denounce the local Moms for Liberty chapter. The local chapter is relatively new, but its June newsletter attracted wide condemnation after quoting Hitler on its front cover. “It’s a clear example of how opposition to Moms for Liberty can galvanize people to vote against conservative candidates,” Valant said. Shaw, a former teacher, said she is concerned about the Moms for Liberty chapter's influence in the county.

MAYWOOD, Ill.

The body of his mother, Myrtle Brown, was discovered Sept. 16 near a creek in Maywood, about 12 miles (19 kilometers) west of Chicago. Brown, 35, and his 73-year-old mother lived together in Maywood.

Previously, Democratic governors who had backed school choice measures had done so in compromise deals with Republican-controlled legislatures. Vouchers have long been viewed in stark partisan terms: Democrats and public school allies say they drain critical resources from public schools. Republicans and school choice advocates say they give freedom to families who may not like their local public schools. That had motivated public school advocates and Democrats to demand billions more for the poorest public schools, a quest that Shapiro has said he supports. Those fluent in the history of school vouchers could think of no other Democratic governor who had embraced them.
