The Jacksonville Jaguars went all in to acquire the reigning Heisman Trophy winner in the 2025 NFL Draft. New general manager James Gladstone sent the Cleveland Browns a package of picks headlined by a future first-rounder for the right to select wide receiver and cornerback Travis Hunter. 

The Jaguars executed this trade with the goal of making Hunter a two-way player. Gladstone even said this playmaker was capable of pushing the boundaries of football. 

“He’s a rare person,” Gladstone said last year. “He’s a rare player. But he’s also a reminder that the boundaries of the game of football we built to be challenged. We want him to be nothing more than him – because when he is, he elevates the space around him – from the football field, to the city, to the game of football itself.

“Travis Hunter is who we’ve been hunting up.”

Through nine career games, the results have been disappointing to say the least. Hunter caught 28 passes for 298 yards and one touchdown, and made 15 tackles with three passes defensed in seven games played as a rookie before an LCL injury knocked him out for the rest of the year. Through two games this season, Hunter’s usage has come under more scrutiny. He’s caught one pass for eight yards, rushed once for three yards, and made five tackles with one pass defensed.

It was believed that Hunter was going to play more cornerback this year — although the Jaguars will never walk back their original plan of him being a two-way player. Hunter has played 58.4% of snaps on defense through two weeks, and just 8.6% of offensive snaps. This has led to more questions, because why is Hunter playing such few snaps? 

There’s plenty to criticize from the Jags’ 20-13 loss to the Denver Broncos on Sunday. The secondary struggled to contain Jaylen Waddle, and the offense fell flat in the final quarter. As head coach Liam Coen evaluated the first loss of the season, he came to the conclusion that Hunter needs to be more involved on offense. 

“Any time you struggle offensively, specifically, you look at the totality of it all, and Travis is a big part of that obviously that we’re looking at continuing to find different ways to get him involved,” Coen told reporters. “You’re also looking at the other side of the ball… I thought he did a nice job throughout the course of the week, and we’re going to look at giving him some more this week.”

One has to wonder how much of Hunter’s usage, or lack thereof, has to do with him ramping up from time missed last year. After all, Hunter played more snaps in Week 2 than he did in Week 1. 

“It is a balancing act, though, right?” Coen said. “You’re trying to get into a flow, whether it’s on offense or defense. But we have corners that we have a lot of confidence in.”

While no one player or position group decided the loss, Coen can’t help but notice how the offensive production fell off a cliff in the final stanza. 

Fourth quarter

Cam Little missed a 54-yard field goal on Jacksonville’s first possession of the fourth quarter, and the Jags received just one more possession — which ended with a punt when Trevor Lawrence couldn’t connect with Brian Thomas Jr. deep down the field on third-and-11. The Broncos then went 59 yards on 10 plays, and ran out the clock.

It appears Coen views Hunter as the seasoning that can spice up the offense when they need it most. Keep an eye on his usage when the Jags host Drake Maye and the New England Patriots this Sunday. 

The Milwaukee Brewers beat the Philadelphia Phillies on Wednesday night, and starting pitcher Logan Henderson tied an MLB record.

Henderson made his debut last season, but only made five starts. His rookie status is intact through this season, and he is up to 23 career starts. He missed some time this year with a back injury, but he is the Brewers’ No. 2 starter behind Jacob Misiorowski.

Misiorowski has gotten all of the headlines, but Henderson has been just as good. He has a 2.47 ERA through 18 starts this year. After going five innings and allowing just one earned run, Henderson ried Zac Gallen‘s MLB record of starts to start a career allowing three earned runs or fewer.

That’s right, Henderson has never made a start in which he allowed more than three earned run. He has allowed exactly three earned runs only three times in his career. He has allowed one or fewer run in 13 of his first 23 starts.

Every time he takes the mound, he is giving the Brewers a chance to win, and he will be a big part of their postseason run.

Last season, the Brewers had Freddy Peralta, but after that there rotation had serious question marks. Now, they are set up much better with Henderson, Robert Gasser and Dustin May. If Kyle Harrison can figure things out, he, Henderson and Misiorowski have the potential to be the best trio of starters in the postseason.

Coca-Cola India has launched a limited-edition golden can in Delhi-NCR to celebrate Spain’s FIFA World Cup 2026 triumph, giving football fans an opportunity to own a commemorative collectible linked to one of the tournament’s biggest moments.

The special-edition can is part of Coca-Cola’s ‘Own a Piece of History’ campaign and features the FIFA World Cup Trophy along with the date of Spain’s historic victory. The collectible is being made available to consumers through quick-commerce platforms, with Zepto and Blinkit currently offering the product across Delhi-NCR.

The initiative combines Coca-Cola’s long association with FIFA with the growing popularity of collectible football merchandise, allowing fans to mark Spain’s World Cup victory through a limited-edition version of the beverage.

Coca-Cola golden can: Price and availability

The limited-edition Coca-Cola FIFA can is available in a 330 ml format. A single can is priced at Rs 65, while Blinkit is also offering a pack of two 330 ml cans for Rs 120. The 330 ml can is listed at Rs 65 on Zepto as well.

The product was initially offered for pre-booking exclusively through Zepto during the launch week. It is now available for purchase through both Zepto and Blinkit for consumers across Delhi-NCR. Availability may vary depending on the consumer’s location and stock levels on the respective platforms.

What does the special-edition Coca-Cola can feature?

The collectible golden can has been designed around Spain’s FIFA World Cup victory. It carries an image of the FIFA World Cup Trophy along with the date of Spain’s triumph, turning the regular Coca-Cola can into a commemorative item for football fans.

The design is intended to capture the significance of Spain’s tournament victory and provide fans with a physical memento associated with the 2026 World Cup. The limited-edition positioning also distinguishes it from Coca-Cola’s regular range of FIFA-branded products.

What is Coca-Cola’s ‘Own a Piece of History’ campaign?

The launch forms part of Coca-Cola’s ‘Own a Piece of History’ campaign, which aims to turn major football moments into tangible collectibles for fans. The initiative uses the company’s long-standing association with FIFA to create products that connect consumers with significant moments from international football.

For the 2026 World Cup, the campaign seeks to link Spain’s tournament victory with a physical collectible that fans can purchase and keep. The initiative also combines football fandom with quick commerce, allowing the commemorative product to reach consumers through platforms that offer rapid delivery.

What Coca-Cola said about the campaign

Abhishek Gupta, Vice President, Customer Development, Coca-Cola INSWA, said the company’s long association with FIFA has been centred on bringing fans closer to the moments and emotions associated with football.

Gupta said the ‘Own a Piece of History’ initiative was designed to turn Spain’s World Cup celebration into something fans could own and preserve. He also highlighted the partnership with Zepto, saying it allows Coca-Cola to respond to consumer interest quickly while bringing together football fandom, culture and convenience.

According to Gupta, the initiative is intended to create an experience that goes beyond the beverage itself by giving football fans a personal and memorable collectible connected to the World Cup.

Spain’s FIFA World Cup 2026 triumph

Spain lifted the FIFA World Cup 2026 after defeating Argentina 1-0 after extra time in the final at the New York-New Jersey Stadium. The match remained goalless during regulation time before Spain finally broke the deadlock in extra time.

Ferran Torres scored in the 106th minute, finding the decisive breakthrough for Spain. Argentina were reduced to 10 players during the contest, but Spain maintained its advantage to secure the victory and claim its second men’s FIFA World Cup title.

Spain’s World Cup record

Spain’s 2026 victory was its second men’s World Cup title. The country had previously won the tournament in 2010, when Andrés Iniesta scored the winning goal against the Netherlands in extra time in the final in South Africa.

The 2026 triumph, therefore, marked Spain’s return to the top of men’s international football on the World Cup stage. The victory also came during an extended unbeaten run for the Spanish national team, with Spain’s success described as part of a 38-match unbeaten streak under manager Luis de la Fuente.

Spain’s unique World Cup milestone

Spain’s 2026 triumph also produced a notable milestone in international football. With Spain winning the men’s World Cup while its women’s team already held the women’s World Cup title, Spain became the first country to simultaneously hold both FIFA World Cup trophies.

Spain’s women won the FIFA Women’s World Cup in 2023 after defeating England 1-0 in the final in Sydney. The men’s team’s victory in 2026, therefore, gave Spain both senior FIFA World Cup titles at the same time, creating another significant milestone for Spanish football.

Where can fans buy the Coca-Cola golden can?

The limited-edition golden can is being sold through quick-commerce platforms across Delhi-NCR. Consumers can find the 330 ml can on both Zepto and Blinkit, with a single can listed at Rs 65 on each platform.

Blinkit is also offering a two-can pack containing two 330 ml cans for Rs 120. The product was initially available for pre-booking exclusively through Zepto during the launch week before being made available through both quick-commerce platforms.

Since inventory on quick-commerce platforms can vary according to location, consumers may see differences in availability depending on their delivery address and local stock.

Why is the Coca-Cola can significant?

The limited-edition golden can is directly linked to a specific World Cup milestone — Spain’s 2026 triumph. Rather than being only a FIFA-themed Coca-Cola product, it commemorates a particular result and carries the date of Spain’s victory along with an image of the World Cup Trophy.

The product gives football fans an accessible way to commemorate the tournament while also positioning the beverage can as a collectible. For Coca-Cola, the initiative extends its long-standing FIFA association into a physical product centred on a defining moment from the 2026 World Cup.

Chelsea star Morgan Rogers has revealed that he admires Lionel Messi, even though Cristiano Ronaldo is his favourite. The Englishman explained that the FIFA World Cup semifinal clash changed his view of the Argentine superstar.

Speaking on Chelsea Unlocked, Rogers said that Messi was unstoppable in the FIFA World Cup clash despite being 39 years old. He could not stop thinking about how the Argentine legend would have played in his prime and said:

“Ronaldo’s my personal favourite. But I played Messi in that World Cup semifinal. He’s 39. I couldn’t believe it. So, I can’t imagine what he was like in his prime. I can imagine him in his prime being absolutely nothing you can do. Like, absolutely nothing you can do. Like, it’s impossible. Because it was borderline nothing you could do in that game, and he’s 39 and he’s just retired from international football. That’s his second-to-last game ever. So, imagine what he was doing [in his prime].” (via The Chelsea Zone)

Lionel Messi assisted twice in the FIFA World Cup semifinal as Argentina came from behind to win. Cristiano Ronaldo fan Morgan Rogers assisted England’s lone goal, scored by Anthony Gordon.

Pundit explains why he respects Cristiano Ronaldo more than Lionel Messi

Louis Saha spoke about Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi earlier this year, saying that he respects the Portugal superstar more than the Argentine. He claimed that the Al-Nassr captain likes to do things on his own, while the Inter Miami forward does not hesitate to ask for help. He said:

“That’s the problem, I think at some point he has to stop because he’s clearly a human. But yes, he’s playing like a robot. He has this quality body and his brain is not like a normal person. I don’t think that even Messi has this kind of brain because Messi understands that he can’t run as much as Cristiano. He just really knows that he will need the help of pretty much eight to nine players dedicated to his game; otherwise Messi won’t be playing this way.”

“Cristiano doesn’t ask. He doesn’t ask for help. He’s saying, ‘I’m fit enough, I’m as good, I am like 35 years old, so I’m going to score with your support or not’. So this is really a big mentality that I respect. It’s a big, big, big difference between those two. Even if they are two monsters, definitely I respect more this guy because you look at his stats – run nine-and-a-half or 10 or 11km. This is crazy numbers. He may have run 1,000 marathons now! It’s crazy.”

Cristiano Ronaldo continues to play for the national team, while Lionel Messi has announced his retirement and has his farewell game next month.
