One of the most physically gifted quarterbacks in the 2026 NFL Draft class, Arkansas product Taylen Green enjoyed a combine showing for the ages Saturday afternoon inside Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis with a record-setting performance.

Green followed up his record-breaking 43.5-inch vertical with another chart-topper for his position, posting an 11-foot, two-inch leap in the broad jump. Anthony Richardson, the No. 4 pick of the Indianapolis Colts in 2023, held the previous highs for quarterbacks with a 40-inch vertical and a 10-foot, 9-inch broad jump.

Green’s official 4.36 time in the 40-yard dash is the second-fastest time ever by a quarterback, trailing only Michael Vick’s 4.33 in 2001. Considered a mid to late-round pick prior to the combine, the long-strider is rated as the 11th-best quarterback available per CBS Sports’ individual player rankings, ahead of dual-threat passers like Vanderbilt’s Diego Pavia and Georgia Tech’s Haynes King.

At 6-foot-6 and 227 pounds, Green’s size is similar to former No. 1 overall pick Trevor Lawrence, but with a considerable edge in athleticism. One of the lone playmakers for the Razorbacks last season, Green threw for 2,714 yards, 19 touchdowns and 11 interceptions while also picking up 777 yards rushing and eight scores on the ground.

Inconsistencies as a passer have primarily marred the development of Green, who played three seasons at Boise State before spending his final two years in the SEC at Arkansas. Green’s penchant for explosive plays fueled his highlight reel for the Razorbacks under offensive coordinator Bobby Petrino, who made the most of his abilities outside of the pocket.

Green’s top performances included a six-touchdown game against Mississippi State in 2024 and five touchdowns last season during a 45-42 loss to Texas A&M, a College Football Playoff participant.

The current NFL comparison is clear, according to Kentucky defensive coordinator Jay Bateman, who led the Texas A&M’s defense last season and previously assisted with Florida’s defense during the 2022 and 2023 seasons.

“Kid is a stud. I was impressed with how he developed as a passer this year,” Bateman told CBS Sports on Saturday. “Reminds me a lot of Anthony Richardson.”

Green has flashed elite arm strength at times and often made plays off script against SEC defenses, but mechanical worries as a passer and a bevy of head-scratching decisions — 20 total interceptions the last two seasons — leave his draft stock a bit of an unknown. 

Green told NFL Media that teams have not asked him to work out at other positions, like wide receiver. And if they did, he would decline. 

“He’s going to be a project at the next level because he’s got to get all the parts working together, but he has a chance to be a special talent. He’s going to be a Day 3 guy,” CBS Sports’ Ryan Wilson said before the combine.

Roy Jones Jr has issued his verdict on the rematch between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao.

It was officially announced last week that the pair will square off on September 19, over a decade removed from their first encounter, headlining a Netflix event at the Sphere, Las Vegas.

Since claiming a unanimous decision victory over his rival, Mayweather has had just two professional outings – against Andre Berto and Conor McGregor – while also being involved in a series of exhibition matches.

The 49-year-old is also slated to have an exhibition with Mike Tyson, which has been reported to take place on April 25 in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Pacquiao’s more recent activity could give him a slight edge, given that his last professional outing saw him box to a draw against Mario Barrios, the then-WBC welterweight champion, in July.

But while the 47-year-old Filipino was in action last year, it must be said that both pound-for-pound legends are a far cry from their best.

This view is shared by Jones, another pound-for-pound icon, who told DAZN that the rematch, much like their first fight, is well past its sell-by date.

“For those guys to make the money they’re going to make, [it’s] good for them – I like it for that purpose.

“[But], for me, I’m not excited because I wanted to see the fight five years before it happened. So it happened too late for me, the first time. This time, it’s definitely too late.

“But I’m not going to hate on them. If they’re going to make money doing it, more power to them.”

Most would agree that Mayweather and Pacquiao’s showdown in 2015 came far too late, which must speak volumes about where both men are currently at in their careers.

UFC returns to Mexico for the first time since March 29, 2025, when UFC Fight Night comes to Mexico City on Saturday. In the main event, two-time former flyweight champion Brandon Moreno will take on late replacement Lone’er Kavanagh.

Kavanagh took the fight on three weeks’ notice after Asu Almabayev fell to injury, and will travel to enemy territory when he takes on the first Mexican fighter to hold a UFC championship. While it could be seen as a low-risk, high-reward situation for Kavanagh, he is coming off of his first loss, a second-round knockout against Charles Johnson this past August. A second consecutive loss would not leave Kavanagh in a good spot in the division.

Moreno is also coming off a stoppage loss, suffering a second-round TKO loss to Tatsuro Taira in December. That loss ran Moreno’s record to 2-3 in his five most recent fights, and 4-4 since the start of 2022.

Moreno first won the flyweight title at UFC 263, defeating Deiveson Figueiredo after the two battled to a draw in their first fight. Figueiredo won the third fight to regain the title and Moreno won the belt back from Figueiredo two fights later. At UFC 290, Moreno lost the belt again, this time to Alexandre Pantoja and Moreno has been trying to battle his way back to the top since.

Saturday’s main card is Mexico vs. the world, with each fight featuring one Mexican fighter. There are three fighters, excluding the main event, that fans should keep a close eye on. Knockout artists David Martinez and Imanol Rodriguez are sizable favorites. Martinez, who fights former title challenger Marlon “Chito” Vera, is already a top 10 bantamweight after two UFC fights. Rodriguez makes his UFC debut after a thrilling KO on “Contender Series.” Lastly, CBS Sports 2024 Fight of the Year recipient Daniel Zellhuber looks to turn the corner against exciting veteran King Green.

Michael Carrick insists he is not worried about facing a potential rival for the Manchester United manager’s job when Oliver Glasner brings his Crystal Palace side to Old Trafford on Sunday.

When United sacked Ruben Amorim at the start of January, later naming Carrick as boss until the end of the season, Glasner – who will leave Selhurst Park at the end of the season – was among the favourites to get the job on a full-time basis come the summer.

The Austrian’s star has dimmed a little since then given Palace went through a nine-game winless run in the league before winning two of their last three, while Carrick has overseen a revival in United’s fortunes, winning five of his six games in charge.

Another win on Sunday would only strengthen the argument that the former United skipper is the man to take the club forward for the long term, but he said he had given no thought to the significance of facing Glasner.

Carrick was an assistant to then interim United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer back in January 2019 when a 1-0 away win over Mauricio Pochettino’s Tottenham did much to help the Norwegian get the job on a permanent basis at a time when Pochettino was a strong candidate.

But asked if there were any parallels, Carrick said: “Honestly, it doesn’t make any difference whatsoever. It’s total respect for Crystal Palace and Oliver, and in terms of the team that they are and the role that they’re doing.

“That’s no disrespect, it’s the next game for us and we’re in a position where we found ourselves at, and we’re in a decent spot, and we feel like we’re moving forwards. It’s just about what’s in front of us, and trying to get to where we want to be, which is a little bit higher the league.

“That’s literally all that I’m worried about at the moment.”

Carrick has only been in charge of United for six weeks, and the club did not make any signings during the January transfer window to leave him working with the squad that had struggled under Amorim.

That only makes the turnaround in results he has achieved more impressive, but the 44-year-old believes there is still much room for improvement.

“I think it always evolves, it’s never perfect,” he said. “I’ve said that I always kind of hope for more and I think part of it is understanding of how little time still we’ve been together.

“Sometimes it’s going to go well and there’s going to be times where it doesn’t quite click so much.

“I think it’s not to be over-picky and over-harsh on certain things and actually taking perspective and a bigger picture is important for us.

“I think we’re in a we’re in a good place. In some ways we’ve made big strides, winning games that we might not have won at other times, played some good football at times, things to improve at times.

“Defending really, really well a lot of the time and you know, keeping clean sheets, so there’s lots of positives. There’s so many layers of of kind of levels that we feel we can get to as a group, so we’ll just keep pushing for that.”

Mikel Arteta insists Eberechi Eze needs no extra encouragement as the former Crystal Palace playmaker finds his feet at Arsenal.

In November, Eze became the first player to score a Premier League hat-trick in a north London derby, and he was instrumental in the Gunners’ 4-1 dismantling of Tottenham last Sunday, scoring twice.

But the 27-year-old’s form in between those derbies has been inconsistent and Arteta admits he is still getting to know Eze on both an emotional and tactical level.

“Motivation has never been an issue,” boss Arteta said. “I believe that if you have to motivate a player then you have a big problem. Motivation is just talk, for someone to inspire you for a minute of an hour.

“I think the biggest motivation he has is the reason why he came to this club. He really feels attached and belonging here. The rest is moments that you have in your career. When you move to a different club, navigating that and making sure you do everything that you possibly can to make it work.”

Eze came under scrutiny after making a mistake in December’s 2-1 defeat by Aston Villa and he has made just two Premier League starts since they beat Wolves in the middle of that month.

His attacking form has historically improved late in the season, a trend Arteta is eager for Eze to replicate with the Gunners still chasing an historic quadruple.

Arteta revealed he has not entirely closed the door on Eze returning to the left wing at some point, saying: “He can do. Now he has got many more months and games and understanding of what the games require for him to make the difference. I hope that it’s the case and that he smashes it from here until the end of the season.”

The red-hot Viktor Gyokeres was responsible for Arsenal’s two other goals against Spurs, taking him up to 15 goals across all competitions following a slow start after joining from Sporting Lisbon last summer.

Arteta was reminded that the Swede’s current tally is just one shy of Didier Drogba’s total in his first season at Stamford Bridge, with the Ivorian going on to make a habit of scoring against the Gunners in his time at Chelsea.

Asked if such comparisons were helpful, Arteta replied: “It’s always the case about who you compare with. I have a beautiful apartment, but this guy has the biggest mansion in the world. So my apartment is terrible.

“But I can be so proud that I worked so hard to get it and pay the debts of my apartment and refurbish it and have a beautiful kitchen. I go to his house and I get depressed. So it depends on the eyes that you look at it.

“So I think what (Viktor’s) doing is improvable, yes. But I think his contribution, I think it’s been important so far.”

Twente will host Feyenoord at De Grolsch Veste on Sunday in another round of the 2025-26 Eredivisie campaign. The home side have performed well in their league assignments in recent months, although several draws in that period means they still have some way to go if they are to mount a serious challenge for a top-four finish.

Following a disappointing 1-1 draw away at Telstar a fortnight ago, Twente returned to their home patch last weekend to take on struggling Groningen. Despite conceding the opening goal in the first half, the Tukkers remained undeterred, with Daan Rots and Kristian Hlynsson capitalizing on their opponents’ defensive uncertainties to secure a 2-1 victory for John van den Brom’s side.

After a difficult run of results between November and January, Feyenoord seem to have rediscovered their rhythm and are back in the hunt for a top-two league finish and, consequently, a UEFA Champions League spot.

De Stadionclub were strong favorites when they welcomed newly promoted Telstar to their home patch last time out but were made to work for the points, falling behind inside 15 minutes before star winger Anis Hadj Moussa netted a first-half brace to secure a 2-1 victory for Robin van Persie’s men.

Twente vs Feyenoord Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

• The two teams have met 120 times, with Twente winning 27 of those encounters while Feyenoord have claimed 53 victories.
• There have been 40 draws between the two teams, including their most recent matchup which ended 1-1.
• The visitors are undefeated in their last four games in this fixture.
• Twente boast the best defensive record in the Dutch top flight this season, having conceded 26 goals in 24 matches.
• Feyenoord are the third-highest-scoring side in the division so far, having scored 55 goals in 24 games.

Twente vs Feyenoord Prediction

The Tukkers head into the weekend clash on a brilliant 14-game unbeaten streak in the league, although nine of those matches have ended in draws. They are also undefeated in their last seven home games and will fancy their chances of a positive result on Sunday.

De club aan de Maas have won four of their last five league matches after winning just two of their previous eight. However, they have struggled on the road recently and may have to settle for a point here.

Prediction: Twente 1-1 Feyenoord
