The Chicago Bears reportedly lost a big piece of their offensive line on Tuesday.
Pro Bowl center Drew Dalman informed the team that he would retire at just 27 years old after five seasons, according to ESPN.
The Bears signed Dalman to a three-year, $42 million contract last offseason as they overhauled the interior of their offensive line in head coach Ben Johnson’s first season. They signed Dalman and traded for guards Joe Thuney and Jonah Jackson, and saw great results.

Dalman played in all 17 games and didn’t miss any of the team’s 1,154 snaps, and made his first career Pro Bowl. The Bears went 11-6 and won the NFC North in large part because of the team’s revamped offensive line.
The running back duo of D’Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai was highly effective last season. Swift ran for 1,087 yards and nine touchdowns while Monangai ran for 783 yards and five touchdowns.

In 2024, before Dalman, Jackson and Thuney were brought in, quarterback Caleb Williams was sacked 68 times. In 2025, he was sacked just 24 times.

Dalman was selected by the Atlanta Falcons in the fourth round of the 2021 NFL Draft out of Stanford. He played four seasons with the Falcons before departing in free agency to join the Bears.

Free agency officially begins March 11 at 4 p.m. ET, and the Bears will look to replace him with a free agent center or in the NFL draft.
Bears left tackle Ozzy Trapilo ruptured his patellar tendon in the playoffs last season, so they will also have to address that position as well this offseason.
Paige made her shocking return to WWE at WrestleMania 42 Night 1. She joined forces with Brie Bella to compete in the Fatal 4-Way Match for the Women’s Tag Team Championships. To everyone’s surprise, The Anti-Diva went on to win the titles at The Grandest Stage of Them All to make her return even more memorable.
Nikki Bella was in the corner of Paige and Brie Bella the entire time during the match. She acted as a big supporter for the duo through and through, and they were spotted having a celebration following the match. The former AEW star, along with The Bellas, also appeared on the WrestleMania Post Show, where Nikki talked about her return. However, the former Divas Champion accidentally botched a live interview.
While discussing Paige’s comeback at the 16:39 mark of the post-show interview, Nikki Bella unintentionally referred to her as Saraya. Well, it needs to be noted that it is the Briton’s real name, and she used that during her AEW run. Therefore, it was a botch to call her by that label in the Stamford-based promotion. However, as a true professional, Bella quickly corrected herself without creating much of a difference.

“Both at the same time, the only person who will still make it feel special and like family is Saraya, Paige,” said Bella.
Check out the video below:
Well, the former AEW star’s return has managed to make a lot of headlines all over the globe. It will be interesting to see how things will unfold for her in the Stamford-based promotion from here on out.
Paige makes history with her return at WrestleMania 42
Paige’s comeback was a historic moment for her in the world of professional wrestling. It was her first WWE appearance in a long time, and fans were quickly taken on a nostalgia ride with her iconic theme song. But that was not the only thing that happened last night. With that return and the women’s tag team title win, The Anti Diva has achieved a unique feat in pro-wrestling.

With that title win with Brie Bella, the 33-year-old star has become the only pro-wrestler to win a championship at All In and WrestleMania. Saraya became the AEW Women’s World Champion at All In: London in 2023 at the famous Wembley Stadium. All In is the biggest show produced by All Elite Wrestling; meanwhile, WrestleMania is the biggest show by WWE.
Now, as the new women’s tag team champion, Saraya has got a huge target on her back. It will be exciting to witness who will be the first challengers for her and Brie Bella on Monday Night RAW next week.
When Forest strolled out of north London with a 3-0 win at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium 28 days ago it felt seismic.
They were only three points above the relegation zone, but the magnitude of the win could not be understated.
It was Pereira’s first win as Forest manager and the nature of the victory felt huge, with Gibbs-White scoring a game-clinching second.
Fast forward a month and Gibbs-White’s hat-trick piles more misery on Spurs and gives them another reminder of what could have been.

A move to Tottenham appeared done in July when it appeared his £60m release clause had been triggered.
Yet Forest looked to take legal action and were furious with Tottenham‘s conduct and were adamant they had not been given permission to speak to their player.
Gibbs-White went on to sign a new three-year contract a few weeks later and the saga was perhaps a prelude to the two club’s chaotic seasons, with Forest going through four managers and Spurs close to their first relegation since 1977.
“A massive three points. We knew how important this game was coming into it. The first half was a bit nervous, tense,” Gibbs-White told BBC Match of the Day.

“The words from the gaffer was to give it everything out there – whatever will be will be. They boys came out fighting, took our chances when we needed to and controlled the game.
“The first, I was a bit erratic. I knew for the second one to take a touch and be a bit more composed. When the third went in, it was a delight.
“We got the win and we have that gap.”
Instead of potentially spearheading Spurs’ survival bid, Gibbs-White has delivered another hammer blow.

Spurs, in 18th, will be four points from safety if West Ham beat Crystal Palace on Monday.
Ex-Tottenham midfielder Danny Murphy told Match of the Day: “It is strange how football works.
“One of the things Spurs fans have been vocal about is the club not being able to get good players signed and over the line.
“Whether that could be through the inability to negotiate properly, whether it’s financial, who knows?

“But, ultimately, a player like Gibbs-White would have been brilliant for Tottenham this season and would have hit the ground running – unlike Xavi Simons, who is a good player but has taken time to adapt.
“Today is a double kick in the stomach for Spurs as he could have been the man to save them from trouble. Instead, he’s given Forest a huge boost to beat the drop.”
You slice. You catch it fat from the fairway. Your game: riddled with a two-way miss. With my plan, that’s all part of your golfing past.
Below, you’ll learn how to nix these errors and get a ton more consistent in your ball striking. It’s a plan that I feel works for everyone — from struggling rec player to the golfers you see on TV each weekend. It’s based on always getting back to a solid impact position, something you can do by rehearsing impact first. Then you’ll be growing the swing to add more speed and power.
In this special edition of GOLF instruction, I’ll show you how to do just that in five easy steps, starting with learning what proper impact should look and feel like while incrementally adding width and speed to your overall swing. They are proven fundamentals that will not only help you, but also give some structure and insight to your regular practice sessions. Guided practice is the best practice, more so than simply swinging for the fences when you’re at the range. Follow along and at the start of the new season, your golfing buddies won’t believe what they’re seeing. Neither will you.
STEP 1: REHEARSE IMPACT WITH A LOWER- CASE ‘y’
A lower-case ‘y’ is what ideal impact position looks and feels like.
GOLF

In order to achieve perfect impact, you need to know what it looks and feels like. That’s Step 1 in this learning session. So … with a wedge, follow these steps:
1. With a ball set slightly forward of center, ground your club while setting about 80 percent of your weight on your front foot.
2. Push your tailbone back and rotate your hips 40 to 45 degrees open — as if you’re getting them “out of the way” for the moment you strike the ball.
3. Call this the Holy Grail of impact: Press your hands forward without moving anything else, adding some bend to your trail wrist while keeping your lead arm straight. You know you did it right if your arms, hands and club form a lowercase ‘y’, as you see in the photo above.
Advertisement
4. As you get into these positions, mind your head — set the right side of your face behind the ball. As you’ve probably experienced in your golfing career, moving your head too far in front of the ball tends to lead to a ton of swing misery.
5. Once you’re set, stick a tee between your trail arm and your torso, right in your armpit. Create pressure between your arm and your body to hold the tee in place. Subtle, but this trail arm and body connection is one of the true keys to producing solid strikes, as you’ll learn in Step 2 below.
If you can copy what you see here, you’re on the fast track to better ball striking and lower scores. Practice these impact alignments as much as you can. You can spend time at the range as well as at home grooving this. In the next step, you’ll learn how to guide your swing through this A-plus position.
STEP 2: SWING LOWERCASE “y” TO CAPITAL “Y”
In Step 2, you add the swing motion.
GOLF

Once you have nailed the look and feel of a proper impact position in Step 1, it’s time to add some motion to your overall swing. We’ll start small and work into fuller motions in the proceeding steps.
To put this in action: It’s time to reset your lowercase ‘y’ impact position, then smoothly rotate back. The goal here is to transport the lowercase ‘y’ you formed in your mock impact position to a one-third backswing (top photo avove). All you need is a slight shoulder turn and moving a bit of weight from your front foot to your trail foot. Important: Don’t swing past this length at this point in the overall exercise.
Once you’ve set your lowercase ‘y’ mini- backswing, hit the ball, swinging your arms and turning as normal, but cutting off your finish to the point where the club is parallel to the ground (bottom photo above). Check that you’ve posted up solidly on your lead leg. Your wrists will have just a slight re-hinge. This combination of body turn and arm extension is a hallmark of great players. You’ll know you did it correctly when you move from a lowercase ‘y’ to a capital ‘Y’ position.
Big key: Keep the connection between your trail arm and your torso, pinching the tee in your armpit firmly. This is critical to managing your body structure as well as keeping you on plane through the strike.
Advertisement
You’re not looking for big hits here, just solid strikes as you work on your lowercase ‘y’ to capital ‘Y’ motion. If you’re like most of my students, you’ll feel like you’re compressing the ball like never before, even with a “mini-swing.”
Dedicate at least a full range bucket to this drill before even thinking about adding length to your motion.
STEP 3: BUILD AN ADDRESS POSITION THAT FUELS SOLD IMPACT
In Step 3, it’s all about address position.
GOLF
Suggestion: Start every one of your practice sessions with Steps 1 and 2. You’ll build the ability to create solid ball-first contact every time.
Advertisement
But knowing you can’t play this game in “drill mode,” it’s now time to build an address position that best allows you to achieve the four key impact fundamentals without even thinking. Here’s what to do, in four easy steps:
1. Stand erect with any iron, hinging your wrist to get the club parallel with the ground while keeping both arms snug against your sides. Put the club level to your belt buckle.
2. Without changing anything else, extend your hands away from your body. Checkpoint: The distance between the butt of the grip and your body should equal the distance between your thumb and pinkie when both splayed.
3. Again, without changing anything else, simply bend from your hips and sole the club against the ground. Think “back straight” and “arms relaxed.” You’re looking good.
Advertisement
4. To complete the process, simply add a bit of knee flex. You’re now in a position that is balanced and ready to dynamically move. Once you’re set, take your trail hand off the club and splay your hand with pinkie and thumb open wide. Use this gauge to make sure the distance between the club and your body hasn’t changed since Step 1 in this drill.
You need to practice these steps to build your great setup. By doing so, you’re in an excellent position to catch it crisp every time.
STEP 4: SWING CAPITAL ‘L’ TO CAPITAL ‘L’
In Step 4, the ‘y’ swings become ‘L’.
GOLF
So far this lesson has focused on the main requirements of Tour-level impact with what you need to do at address to make it all possible. But, as every golfer knows, this is a power game. At some point you need to learn how to add speed without losing the fundamentals of impact and setup address in Steps 1 to 3.
Advertisement
Enter Step 4: adding serious mph to your lowercase ‘y’ swing. Easy. To get it right, get into your address posture, but this time with an alignment rod held snug between your hands and whatever iron you’ve chosen to swing.
Get set, take the club back, and now you’re building more length to the swing. You’re using the alignment rod to check your ‘L’ positions and to groove a great swing plane. In the backswing, the ‘L’ should point at or slightly inside the ball target line. On the through swing, it should return back and point at the target line again. When using the alignment rod, move slowly back and through to check your angles. This is not about speed; there’s a reason why this is called the “punisher drill.” If you don’t do it correctly, you will hit yourself with the stick. Go slowly to work on the motion, then you can take the rod away and simply swing the club from ‘L’ to ‘L’. This is where the perfect “snap” release lives — the swish! You can also practice this drill only swinging the alignment stick, and you’ll really hear the speed firing up! If you fight a slice with the dreaded chicken wing through the ball, you’re definitely not doing this!
This is how you begin building speed correctly.
STEP 5: GET YOUR SHOULDERS IN ACTION BY TURNING TO ‘THE WALL’
Step 5 puts it all together.
GOLF

The four drills discussed thus far are your fast track to better strikes and more speed. There’s just one more element as you work on each during your training sessions and that’s turn.
A great way to practice this is to set up in your address position [1], with an alignment stick set perpendicular to your target line just inside your trail foot.
As you move from your dynamic address and start building your capital ‘L’ [2], you’re now going to focus on turning both shoulders to the rod while keeping the ‘L’ shape intact [3]. I call this turning to the “imaginary wall.”
Think of the alignment stick on the ground as a thin vertical wall that is running through your trail shoulder at address. Your upper body and lower body are fully coiled to it. As you can see in the picture [3], my lead shoulder and the edge of my trail hip are both stacked over the rod. We’re now in a fantastic spot to let things unleash back through a great impact [4]. This move is a bona fide swing accelerator and usually the one that separates good golfers from those who can really mash it.
Advertisement
Go in slow motion at first if you need to, but once you groove creating that capital ‘L’ in your backswing and moving it all the way to a solid top position with your shoulder and hip turn, the ball won’t know what hit it.
All the while, keep in mind that your primary goal is to deliver the club through a great impact position, no matter how far back your body allows you to turn.
It’s a process — go step by step. Soon, you’ll be striping it better than ever. There’s one more letter to keep in mind: a capital T.
ONE MORE MOVE: MAKE A “T” AT THE FINISH
Form a ‘T’ to finish the swing.
GOLF
Advertisement
Practice your impact position, creating the lowercase ‘y’ with your arms, club and hands. Build your swing from lowercase ‘y’ to uppercase ‘Y’. Then, move ‘L’ to ‘L’, stretching your swing by keeping all of these elements intact while finishing the full turn.
We’re now moving on to the full finish: the capital ‘T’. As you turn fully through, your trail shoulder will be closer to the target and you will be fully balanced on your lead leg, with your hands above your lead shoulder. Your body is facing the target. If you do it right, your body and the club will magically form the letter ‘T’ as you see here.
As I tell my players, you’ve done all the hard work in practice that builds a great impact. Now you’ve earned the right to let it go.

Arsenal-themed water bottles were on sale outside the Etihad Stadium as Manchester City fans ramped up the banter ahead of Sunday’s crucial title clash.
City were hoping to move within three points of the Gunners at the top of the table – with a game in hand – with victory over Mikel Arteta’s side.
Supporters quipped Arsenal were “bottling it” after losing to Bournemouth last weekend.
The jibes gathered momentum when a City fan was pictured holding an Arsenal bottle to his lips during their side’s 3-0 win at Chelsea. The image went viral.
(Getty)
Some enterprising fans took advantage of the situation to sell their own Arsenal-labelled bottles of water outside the ground on Sunday.
It came amid a buoyant atmosphere, with City fans greeting their team coach with blue flares.

City went into the game with momentum having also beaten Arsenal in the Carabao Cup final last month and progressed to the FA Cup semi-finals.
Racing driver Juha Miettinen has died following a multi-car collision during the ADAC 24h Nurburgring Qualifiers in Germany, an event also scheduled to feature four-time Formula One champion Max Verstappen.
Miettinen, 66, was involved in a serious incident early on, which saw seven competitors collide.
According to organisers, race control immediately halted the competition, and emergency services swiftly attended the scene.
Despite rapid intervention, Miettinen could not be saved.
He was removed from his vehicle and later pronounced dead at the medical centre after resuscitation attempts proved unsuccessful.

“Shocked by what’s happened today,” Verstappen, who was not competing at the time of the incident, wrote in a post to his Instagram Stories.
“Motorsport is something we all love, but in times like this it is a reminder of how dangerous it can be.
“Sending my heartfelt condolences to Juha’s family and loved ones.”
The full statement from organisers of the race read: “During the first race of the ADAC 24h Nurburgring Qualifiers (18 April 2026), a serious accident involving seven competitors occurred in the early stages of the race.

“Following the collision between several vehicles, race control immediately halted the race to allow for extensive recovery and rescue operations.
“Despite the immediate arrival of emergency services, the emergency medics were unable to save the driver involved, Juha Miettinen (BMW 325i, £121), after he had been extracted from the vehicle; the driver died at the Medical Centre after all attempts at resuscitation proved unsuccessful.
“The other six drivers involved were taken to the Medical Centre and nearby hospitals for precautionary examinations. None of the injured are in a life-threatening condition.
“The race will not resume on Saturday evening. The thoughts of everyone involved in the 24 Hours of Nurburgring are with the bereaved family of Juha Miettinen.”

Organisers confirmed that competition would not resume on Saturday evening, and there will be a minute’s silence held in Miettinen’s honour during the grid formation when competition resumes at 1pm local time on Sunday.

PurplePTSD works in partnership with Vikings Territory, similarly doing their utmost to offer top-notch coverage of the Minnesota Vikings. As a result, we’re promoting five of their top articles of the past month in “The P/PTSD Perspective.” Take a peek at some of their best stuff.
The P/PTSD Perspective: April 18th, 2026
1) Delayed Position Change Could Save Former Vikings Draftee: The idea of shuffling Walter Rouse around has been in the chatter for a little while. He offers great size and does awesome off-field work. Choosing him in the 6th always meant taking a slow approach, but it’s getting to be time to see him get onto the field.

3) Mel Kiper Goes Explosive Route in Latest Vikings Mock Draft: Everyone is getting the final mocks across the finish line with less than a week to go. The Vikings are likely to turn toward a defender to begin the event, but not everyone agrees. We’ll see what Rob Brzezinski does.

4) Vikings QB Room Draws Bad Review: Wait and see. Each of the passers within that room has flaws, but that’s true for the majority of QBs in the league. There aren’t too many players within the Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, and Lamar Jackson range. Minnesota’s QB spot is likely to do just fine in 2026.
5) Vikings Reportedly Doing Homework on High-Speed Runner: Some combination of Aaron Jones and Jordan Mason are set to do the bulk of the work at running back. In 2026, that’s a decent pair. What happens, though, if there’s an injury? Even if they stay healthy, preparing for 2027 makes sense.

Real American Freestyle (RAF) has made its biggest signing yet. Khamzat Chimaev has officially joined the freestyle wrestling league. The promotion has, however, yet to confirm a debut date and opponent for the UFC middleweight champion. Suffice it to say, fans are excited.
RAF recently confirmed the signing on their social media handles and also aired a short promo during RAF 08.
Check out Khamzat Chimaev’s signing announcement below:

Chimaev is one of the greatest wrestling-based grapplers the UFC has ever seen. The undefeated fighter holds a takedown average of 5.29, with an 80% takedown defense.
Furthermore, he is a three-time Swedish freestyle wrestling gold medalist, winning twice at 86 kg (190 pounds) in 2016 and 2017, before returning to claim the top spot again in 2018 at 92 kg (202 pounds).

At the Swedish national championships, Chimaev is 12-0 with seven technical falls and three pins.
With several MMA stars, including Colby Covington, Yoel Romero, and Bo Nickal, already signed to RAF, the possibilities are endless for Chimaev. True to form, as the news of the signing went viral, fans swarmed social media, sharing their reactions.

“Will he be competing once every 18 months for RAF like he does with UFC, I wonder?”

“Oh my god, the matchups. Bo, get your boots ready.”

An Olympic gold medalist game to wrestle Khamzat Chimaev at RAF
Khamzat Chimaev’s RAF signing has certainly shaken things up. While the promotion has yet to find an opponent for ‘Borz’, an Olympic gold medalist said he’d be game to take on the UFC star.
During the post-event press conference for RAF 08, 2016 Rio Olympics gold medalist and four-time world champion Kyle Snyder opined that it would be good for Chimaev to get a few RAF wrestling matches under his belt, before he faces him.

The reigning RAF light heavyweight champion added:
“Yeah, I mean, I think, give him a couple of matches first. Not that he’s got to earn the spot, but I think for his own benefit, just having a couple of wrestling matches underneath him will be good. And if he ever wants to compete against me, I mean, I’m always ready, so anytime.”
