Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa left Thursday’s game against the Buffalo Bills with a concussion, the team announced. Last season was the only year in his career in which Tagovailoa appeared in every game for the Dolphins. Against the Cincinnati Bengals on a Thursday night game that season, Tagovailoa suffered his first concussion, exhibiting the fencing response after his head hit the ground on a sack. The concussion Tagovailoa suffered against the Bengals came on the heels of a controversy in which the NFLPA believed he wasn’t properly evaluated for a concussion four days earlier in a game against Buffalo. In July, the Dolphins signed Tagovailoa to a four-year, $212.4 million contract, with $167 million guaranteed.

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa suffered a concussion in the third quarter of the team’s “Thursday Night Football” game against the Buffalo Bills. Six minutes later, the Dolphins confirmed he suffered a concussion and was ruled out for the game. The first of those appeared to occur in Week 3 against the Bills, and Tagovailoa was allowed to return later in the game.

Ahead of Week 17, Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel confirmed Tagovailoa suffered another concussion and was ruled out.

When the NFL signed an 11-year, $111 billion media rights deal in 2021, streaming was already part of the mix. Live sports broadcasts have maintained a large audience on traditional TV, even as consumers flee the cable bundle for streaming services. The majority of viewership still comes from traditional TV, according to ratings data. Schroeder said Tuesday that the NFL's strategy exists in both the traditional TV and streaming worlds. Netflix will stream NFL games for the next three years, with two games being streamed this year on the platform, and at least one matchup in both 2025 and 2026.

CNN —The San Francisco 49ers put in a dominant showing to beat the New York Jets 32-19 on Monday, spoiling Aaron Rodgers’ return to NFL action. Rodgers returned to NFL action for the first time since Week 1 last season. Thearon W. Henderson/Getty ImagesDespite the poor start, Rodgers soon showed why the Jets traded for him ahead of last season. However, the Jets offense then struggled to produce much until late in the third by which point San Francisco had built up a comfortable lead. Per the NFL, the Jets only had 21:20 minutes of possession, the lowest mark of Rodgers’ career.

The Dallas Cowboys and quarterback Dak Prescott have agreed to a four-year, $240 million contract that will make him the highest-paid player in NFL history, according to multiple reports. The long, drawn-out negotiation ended with him earning the biggest contract in league history, valued at $60 million a season. Last season, Prescott set career highs in completions (410) and touchdowns (36), throwing for 4,516 yards with only nine interceptions. He led Dallas to a 12-5 record, but the Cowboys lost at home in the first round of the playoffs to the Green Bay Packers. Prescott is the Cowboys second key offensive player to sign a new contract after extended negotiations this offseason, joining his top receiver, CeeDee Lamb.

☆ The Green Bay Packers are the one NFL team owned by its fans. Here's how it works
▼ + stars: | 2024-09-06 | by ( Jake Piazza | In | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Only one National Football League team has an ownership structure that resembles a publicly traded company. The Green Bay Packers, who are the 12th most-valuable NFL franchise at $6.3 billion, according to CNBC's Official 2024 NFL Team Valuations, are the only publicly owned team in the league. The franchise is completely owned by stockholders, many of them Packers fans, in a structure established more than 100 years ago. The share offerings throughout the years have been used to pull the team out of rocky financial situations and do larger renovations of Lambeau Field. The unique structure puts the Packers among the teams that newly approved private equity investors will be least interested in.

CNN —The Dallas Cowboys have become the first professional sports team to be valued at over $10 billion, according to Sportico’s 2024 NFL rankings that were released on Tuesday. The Cowboys, owned by Jerry Jones, were valued at $10.32 billion, far and away the most valuable franchise in the league and an increase of over a billion dollars on the previous estimate of $9.2 billion in February. The Cowboys remain immensely popular though, generating an estimated revenue of $1.2 billion in 2023, 50% higher than the second ranked NFL team, the Los Angeles Rams, according to Sportico. The Rams are valued at $7.79 billion and leapfrogged the New York Giants to take second place but are not in the same stratosphere as Dallas. Per Sportico’s research, the average NFL franchise is worth $5.93 billion, an improvement of 15.4% over last year, as the league continues to be the world’s most financially successful in any sport in terms of team value.

For a regular theatergoer, a recent July evening in rural Wisconsin was peak surreal. From my seat, I could see audience members leaning in, transfixed by those unamplified voices. “They’re here to listen,” Brenda DeVita, the artistic director of American Players Theater, said of the faithful who flock to Spring Green, about an hour west of Madison. A.P.T., in its 45th season, describes itself as a language-based company, which explains why it has doubled down on idiosyncratic choices in the current theatrical landscape. Another is eschewing mics.

Margin trading, aka buying on margin, is the practice of borrowing money from your stock broker to buy stocks, bonds, ETFs, or other market securities. But keep in mind that margin trading amplifies losses just as it does for profits. Advantages of margin tradingWhile it may seem that margin trading means bigger profits, that's not technically true. Dangers of margin tradingUsing leverage to increase investment size, as margin trading does, is a two-edged sword. But provided that you fully understand the risks and costs, margin trading could increase your profits and return on your investments.

On a sunny summer day two years ago, Mark Murphy hosted one of the most unusual events in corporate America: the Green Bay Packers’ annual meeting. He speaks bluntly, eschews jargon and disarms critics with a dry sense of humor. He said the Packers would play the most games in prime time of any team, a sign of their success and popularity. Next year, he will hit the Packers’ mandatory chief executive retirement age of 70 and must step down. Ed Policy, the team’s chief operating officer and general counsel, was chosen last month as his successor and will take over next July.

New York CNN —The American dream of homeownership is looking more like a nightmare. With inflation heating up again, the Federal Reserve is in no position to consider lowering interest rates at its upcoming meetings. That’s according to a New York Fed survey gauging consumers’ expectations of the housing market, released Monday. Consumers are gearing up for even bigger increases compared to the expected rise in mortgage rates over the next year, the New York Fed survey found. The issue of rent affordability is particularly pronounced in New York City, where housing costs have always been notoriously high compared to other parts of the country, absent a brief respite during the pandemic.

The 40-year-old will fully participate in phase three of the OTAs, Saleh said, in which teams can conduct 10 days of 11-on-11 drills without any contact during a four week period. “I know he’s had a couple prior engagements that he’s taking care of, but he’s here, he’s working,” Saleh said.
