New York Giants nose tackle Dexter Lawrence requested a trade to start the week, and it didn’t take long for the Minnesota Vikings to be named as a possible landing spot.
Minnesota could chase a true game-wrecker for Brian Flores’ defensive front.
Yahoo Sports‘ staff put together trade destinations for Lawrence, who is seeking a contract extension, as the guaranteed money on his current deal has expired.

Lawrence Would Change the Shape of the Vikings’ Defense
Would you trade a 1st- or 2nd-Rounder to get Lawrence?

Vikings on Shortlist for Lawrence per Yahoo
Lawrence asked for a trade on Monday afternoon, and within hours, the world speculated about his next employer.
Yahoo Sports explained the Vikings as a fit: “The Vikings need help on the interior of their defensive line after releasing Javon Hargrave and Jonathan Allen this offseason, and a gap-shooting space-eater like Lawrence in the middle could really help unspool all the funky disguises and blitzes returning defensive coordinator Brian Flores likes to deploy.”

“Plus, one knock (however slight) on the Vikings’ recent defenses is there hasn’t been a true star you can set your clock to. Lawrence certainly qualifies. This would be a big swing for de facto general manager Rob Brzezinski, and landing Lawrence could go a long way toward him sealing up the permanent gig for a team with designs on contending in the NFC.”
The Carolina Panthers, Chicago Bears, Cincinnati Bengals, Kansas City Chiefs, and Tennessee Titans were also mentioned in the publication.
The Lawrence Bio
At 28 years old, Lawrence has amassed an impressive 30.5 sacks, 103 quarterback hits, 40 tackles for loss, and 15 forced fumbles in 109 career games. A three-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro, he is the type of interior defender offenses must game plan around.

Widely regarded as the NFL’s best nose tackle and considered by many to be in contention for the title of best defensive tackle overall, Lawrence’s trade request on Monday sent shockwaves throughout the league, as a player of his caliber changing teams could rapidly alter the competitive landscape.
This is Lawrence’s Pro Football Focus scorecard over the last seven seasons:
2019: 76.2
2020: 79.7
2021: 68.6
2022: 91.6
2023: 92.9
2024: 89.9
2025: 75.6
How Much via Trade?
This is the tricky part. Giants fans on social media absolutely insist that Lawrence is worth a 1st-Round pick but also a player or mid-round selection. Yet, he’ll turn 29 this fall, is fending off a bad elbow, and hasn’t logged a full sack in a game since October 2024.
ESPN’s Jordan Raanan tweeted Monday, “Asked around the league and the general consensus appears to be that IF the Giants were willing to trade Dexter Lawrence, the return would be in the range of late first-round pick to second-rounder.”

For the Vikings, a deal for Lawrence could look something like this if Raanan has it right:
Vikings Receive — Dexter Lawrence Pick No. 37 (Round 1)
It will also be telling to see if a bidding war drives the price for Lawrence up.

CBS Sports‘ Carter Bahns noted Monday, “On the heels of a serious injury and the letdown campaign that followed it, however, the Giants would be hard-pressed to ask for much more than half of that trade package. Run defense-needy teams ought to still value Lawrence enough to swap a first-round pick for him, but anything more than that would be gravy for the Giants until he proves to be back in prime form.”
“At that price, why not continue working towards a long-term deal that keeps him around? If the negotiations get uglier in the months to come, though, or if Lawrence’s request sparks the interest of potential buyers, there are a handful of teams who would be unsurprising if they showed interest.”
Allen + Hargrave Out
Why do the Vikings need a defensive tackle like Lawrence? Well, the club released two starting DTs last month, with Jonathan Allen later signing in Cincinnati and Javon Hargrave picking the Green Bay Packers. At the moment, Minnesota has Jalen Redmond, Levi Drake Rodriguez, Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins, Taki Taimani, Elijah Williams, and Jaylon Hutchings lined up at the position. Most expect interim general manager Rob Brzezinski to explore a defensive tackle in the draft.

Or — the Vikings could invest in a sure thing with Lawrence.
The only drawback? Age. Minnesota has one of the NFL’s oldest rosters during the 2026 offseason. Trading for Lawrence would not change that.
Delhi Capitals bowling coach Munaf Patel has lauded young Jammu and Kashmir pacer Auqib Nabi for his discipline and strong work ethic, highlighting his commitment despite being in his debut Indian Premier League (IPL) season. Speaking at a pre-match press conference ahead of Delhi Capitals’ clash against Gujarat Titans, Patel said Nabi has shown remarkable focus and maturity.
“He’s a very disciplined and patient young bowler with a strong work ethic. Despite this being his first IPL, he hasn’t been distracted by the glamour. He’s always eager to bowl extra in the nets; in fact, we sometimes have to stop him,” he said.
Patel pointed out the challenges of transitioning from domestic cricket to the IPL, where the level of competition is significantly higher.
“There’s a big difference between domestic cricket and the IPL, where even good balls can get hit. He’s working towards becoming a complete all-round package,” he added.

The coach also referred to Nabi’s impressive domestic form, particularly his performance in the recent Ranji Trophy season for Jammu and Kashmir. “Coming off a historic Ranji season with J&K is a very big achievement. IPL is a different challenge. We’re ensuring he stays ready, as not all bowlers will play every match,” Patel said.
He further indicated that Nabi could be utilised as an impact player when required. “He could also be used as an impact player when needed. So we’re ensuring he is ready whenever the time comes,” he added.
Delhi Capitals, after registering wins in both their games so far, find themselves positioned fourth on the IPL 2026 points table with a Net Run Rate (NRR) of 1.170.

Heading into the 2026 Season, 31 players who attended high schools in Wyoming have played or are currently playing in the NFL.
That number may increase this fall as recently drafted players make their first pro games. Those who play only in exhibition games won’t be included, however, as the League only counts regular-season contests.
Meanwhile, here is a list of the State’s top pro-producing high schools with their respective ranks, player counts, and cities.

COLUMBIA, S.C. — South Carolina women’s basketball coach Dawn Staley says it is time to move past her Final Four skirmish with UConn coach Geno Auriemma that became the talk of the tournament.
Staley released a statement on South Carolina’s X account on Tuesday in which she expressed her respect for Auriemma and said the two have spoken since South Carolina’s 62-48 victory on Friday night. The season ended with UCLA’s runaway 79-51 win over South Carolina in Sunday’s national championship game.
“With the college women’s basketball season behind us, it’s time to move forward and close the chapter on how our semifinal game with UConn ended,” Staley wrote in her statement. “I spoke with Geno and I want to be clear — I have a great deal of respect for him and what he’s meant to the game. One moment doesn’t define a career and it doesn’t change the impact he’s had on growing women’s basketball.
“The standard at UConn is what it is because of him, and that’s something this game has benefited from. So I’m asking everyone to turn the page. Let’s refocus on what matters most, continuing to elevate our game, creating opportunities and pushing it forward. That’s always been my mission, and it’s not changing.”

Staley’s statement followed Auriemma’s apology on Saturday after he went over to Staley in the final seconds of Friday night’s game and appeared to chastise her. Coaches from both teams had to separate them. When the game finally ended, Auriemma walked off the court to the locker room without going back to shake hands with anyone from South Carolina.
“There’s no excuse for how I handled the end of the game vs. South Carolina,” Auriemma said in his statement on Saturday.
“It’s unlike what I do and what our standard is here at Connecticut. I want to apologize to the staff and the team at South Carolina. It was uncalled for in how I reacted. The story should be how well South Carolina played, and I don’t want my actions to detract from that. I’ve had a great relationship with their staff, and I sincerely want to apologize to them.”
The Edmonton Oilers forward will play Tuesday against the Utah Mammoth (9:30 p.m. ET / 7:30 p.m. MT, Sportsnet 360, Sportsnet+), coach Kris Knoblauch told reporters.
Dach has been out since March 10 following a hit from Colorado Avalanche defenceman Josh Manson.
Dach was acquired by the Oilers alongside Jason Dickinson from the Chicago Blackhawks at the trade deadline.
The native of St. Albert, Alta. has one assist in three games for the Oilers and had three goals and six assists in 53 games with the Blackhawks this season.
Four-division world champion Roy Jones Jr. has doubled down on his prediction ahead of David Benavidez’s intriguing cruiserweight title challenge against reigning and unified 200lb champion, Gilberto Ramirez.
Jones became the second fighter to have claimed a middleweight world title and a heavyweight crown, after Bob Fitzsimmons, with James Toney repeating the feat in 2005 but being removed from that elite club after a failed drug test.
Now, David Benavidez is looking to accelerate through the divisions in similar fashion. Having held belts at both super-middleweight and light-heavyweight, he is now challenging ‘Zurdo’ Ramirez for the cruiserweight crown.
“He [Benavidez] going to beat Zurdo. He wanted Zurdo a long time ago, and I think he going to beat Zurdo.”
With fight week approaching fast, Jones further explained why he thinks Benavidez will dethrone the cruiserweight poster boy, with the fact that the pair have sparred leading Jones to believe that Benavidez has seen a weakness to exploit, he told FightHype.
“He sparred with Zurdo, so he knows what he is dealing with. I think that he would deal with him anyway, but he knows what he is dealing with. If I knew what I was dealing with, I would go get it too, if I knew him!”
Zurdo-Benavidez takes place on Saturday May 2, and will be available to watch live on Amazon Prime Video PPV, with Jaime Munguia challenging for the WBA super-middleweight world title in the co-main event.
Another new UFC champion will be introduced this weekend.
UFC 327 takes place this Saturday, April 11, at Miami’s Kaseya Center with fan favourite Jiri Prochazka and streaking contender Carlos Ulberg set to compete for the vacant light-heavyweight championship in a five-round main event.
A second title fight was expected for this card, however, an injury to one of the fighters has postponed the contest.
This weekend’s 12-bout card marks the fourth consecutive year the UFC has held an event in Miami and the ninth year in a row the UFC has gone to Florida.

Alex Pereira is on a quest to become the UFC’s first three-weight champion when he faces Ciryl Gane in an interim heavyweight title matchup at the White House in June. In order to take on that challenge, “Poatan” vacated his title in the 205-pound division.
That belt will be up for grabs this weekend when Prochazka and Ulberg step into the cage.

Prochazka, 33, is a one-time champion whose only two losses in the UFC have been to Pereira. The popular Czech star holds wins over fellow former titleholders Glover Teixeira and Jamahal Hill.
Ulberg, 35 from New Zealand, has won nine in a row and is coming off a first-round knockout over two-time title challenger Dominick Reyes.

A new era at 205 pounds begins when Jiri Prochazka and Carlos Ulberg compete for the vacant light-heavyweight title. Watch UFC 327 on Saturday, April 11 with prelim coverage beginning 7 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. PT, and pay-per-view main card starting at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT.
A key three-rounder in the 205-pound division between undefeated Azamat Murzakanov and former middleweight title challenger Paulo Costa will serve as Saturday’s penultimate bout, but that wasn’t the original plan.

What does the rest of the card look like?
Saturday has a third 205-pound bout when finish-or-be-finished fighters Dominick Reyes and Johnny Walker clash. Reyes hasn’t gone the distance since his razor-thin 2020 loss to Jon Jones, and Walker has only seen the scorecards once in the past five years and is coming off a big win in his lone 2025 appearance.
No. 5 heavyweight contender Curtis Blaydes will look to hold his spot in the rankings when he faces unranked upstart Josh Hokit, who has stormed out to an 8-0 pro record with eight finishes in only a couple of years after beginning mixed martial arts following a brief stint in the NFL as a tight end and fullback.
The main card kicks off with a farewell to a featherweight legend when 44-fight veteran Cub Swanson competes one last time. The 42-year-old’s final opponent is Nate Landwehr, a fellow respected 145-pounder always willing to throw down.

The preliminary card is headlined by a fight fans expected to see under the Bellator MMA banner a few years ago. A Patricio Pitbull versus Aaron Pico matchup never materialized, and the Bellator brand was absorbed by the Professional Fighters League, so now the pair of featherweights with 46 combined Bellator bouts get to settle the score in the UFC.
Also on the prelims, Mexican-Canadian strawweight contender Loopy Godinez faces No. 2 contender Tatiana Suarez. Godinez is ranked No. 6 at 115 pounds and is seeking her third consecutive win.
Below is the projected bout order for UFC 327 (subject to change):

Manchester United have been dealt a massive blow as Manchester City believe they are in pole position to sign Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson this summer, according to the Daily Mirror. The Cityzens are confident in signing Anderson for £65 million and allegedly plan on finalizing the deal before the start of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Forest signed Anderson from Newcastle United in the summer of 2024 for a reported transfer fee of £35 million. The 23-year-old has impressed this season in the middle of the pitch and has even established himself as a first-team regular in the England national team.
Thanks for the submission!

With Casemiro and Manuel Ugarte expected to leave Manchester United at the end of the season, the Red Devils had reportedly selected Elliot Anderson as their top-priority summer signing. However, the England international has allegedly chosen Manchester City as his preferred destination, with the Cityzens increasingly confident in getting the deal over the line.

Anderson has made 41 appearances across all competitions for Forest this season, registering two goals and three assists.
“He’s not going to start being a Jose Mourinho” – Nicky Butt predicts Manchester United’s next permanent manager
Former Manchester United midfielder Nicky Butt has backed Michael Carrick to be appointed as the club’s next permanent manager. Butt believes Carrick’s personality is well-suited for the Red Devils, and that there are no other standout options available, even claiming he wouldn’t be as controversial as Jose Mourinho.
Since replacing Ruben Amorim in January as interim manager, Carrick has impressed, guiding Manchester United to seven wins out of his 10 games in charge across all competitions. While he is contracted with the club until the summer, United’s hierarchy are yet to make a decision on the Red Devils’ next permanent head coach.
“The thing with the Michael scenario is that it’s all well and good people saying that he’s not quite ready for the job, and I get that side of the argument as well. But for me, if you’re asking me the question, if you don’t give it to Michael then who are you giving it to? There’s nobody I can think of that is jumping out, going: that’s the man.”
He added:
“So that’s why I think Michael will get it. He’s doing a good job, he knows the football club. Even more importantly, I think the people above him will like working with Michael, he’s not going to cause them too much of a headache, he’s not going to start being a Jose Mourinho. He’s the easy choice. Also, their get out if was to go wrong… I don’t know anyone who is jumping out and they’re speaking to.”
Under Carrick’s tutelage, Manchester United are currently third in the Premier League standings and are likely to qualify for the Champions League for the first time in two years.
Aaron Ramsey has announced his retirement from professional football with immediate effect, bringing an end to a successful career for both club and country.
The 35-year-old, who has been without a club since leaving Pumas UNAM last year, is now expected to move into coaching as the next step in his career.
Ramsey retires as one of Wales’ finest players, scoring 21 goals in 86 appearances for the national team. He represented Wales national football team at three major tournaments and played a key role in their historic run to the semi-finals of UEFA Euro 2016, where he was named in the team of the tournament.
Advertisement
He also featured at UEFA Euro 2020 and the 2022 FIFA World Cup, which marked Wales’ first appearance at the World Cup finals in 64 years.
At club level, Ramsey began his career with Cardiff City before joining Arsenal in 2008. During his 11 years in London, he won three FA Cups and scored the winning goal in two finals, becoming a key figure for the club.
He later had spells with Juventus, Nice, and returned to Cardiff City, where he also served briefly as interim head coach at the end of last season.

Ramsey joined Pumas in a bid to stay fit for a possible World Cup appearance this summer, but Wales failed to qualify, and he has been without a club since leaving Mexico.
Having been unable to secure a new team, the experienced midfielder has now decided to bring his playing career to a close and turn his focus to coaching.
As the Ontario retirees who flock south for the winter to Orlando and Miami start to make their way back north, they might realize they’ve come back a little too soon.
One day, it’s a picturesque spring day in Toronto, people are biking down the Martin Goodman Trail and waiting for the cherry blossoms to bloom in High Park. The next, a sharp wind pierces through your puffer jacket and the wind tunnels of the downtown core make it feel like January once more.
It’s an up-and-down, back-and-forth life in Canada’s biggest city, one best personified by the consistent inconsistency of the Toronto Raptors.
Once a shoo-in for a top-six seed in the East, the Raptors are far from a sure thing with four games left in the regular season. They’ll put together dominant wins over fellow play-in competitors like the Orlando Magic, then drop gimmes against the Sacramento Kings. At least you can always count on them losing to teams like the Pistons and Celtics.
Advertisement
But who they choose to be in this final week of the season will define the season as a whole: Can they claim the battle of the snowbirds and subject the Miami Heat to a play-in spot? Or will a promising season turn into a fight for their lives in the win-and-you’re-in play-in tourney?
Where Canada Finds Cars
From rink runs to road trips, find the right car with confidence. Backed by Canada’s largest selection and trusted listings. Your next move starts here.
In the final four games, the Raptors are set to host the Heat twice — on Tuesday and Thursday — then visit the Knicks on Friday in the second half of a back-to-back, and lastly lighten their load with a showdown against the Brooklyn Nets at Scotiabank Arena.
Against their compatriots in the battle for the play-in (those in the 5-10 range: The Hawks, Heat, 76ers and Magic), the Raptors have a 10-3 record this year, so the signs are pointing in the right direction for the two-game set against Miami. But as we learned when Bam Adebayo (of all players!) scored 83 points earlier this season, there’s no such thing as a sure thing in the NBA — except for a Raptors loss to the Celtics. All the more reason to avoid the play-in!
So with just a week to go until the end of the regular season, here’s what you need to keep an eye on in the 401-esque congested road to the playoffs.

There’s this meme template online of a guy sitting in a little bodega-style restaurant, listening to music without a care in the world, while a group of people are in the background throwing hands. The guy sitting down represents you, the audience, listening to Rumours by Fleetwood Mac, while the people fighting represent Fleetwood Mac.
Hope that those top four seeds in the East like The Chain.
It’s easy living if you’re the Pistons or Celtics, in particular, as both appear set in their spots as the first and second seeds, respectively. While there’s still a possibility that New York takes over the second seed, Boston needs to win only one game to secure its spot.
While the cortisol might spike a little more if you’re the Cleveland Cavaliers, who close the season with two games against the Atlanta Hawks and one against the Washington Wizards, there’s a sense of safety sitting outside of the play-in picture looking in. It could also benefit them to not show too much of their hand as they gear up for a potential 4-5 series against Atlanta in the first round.
But, like Dante’s Inferno, it gets scarier the further down you go.
Advertisement
The battle for the Nos. 5-10 seeds is coming down to the wire.
Only two games separate the Hawks in fifth from the Magic in ninth, and the same goes for the Raptors in sixth and the Heat in 10th. Meaning that a bad two-game set for the Hawks against Cleveland can ruin an otherwise incredible turn of fortune, or the Raptors getting swept at the hands of the Heat can turn a season of growth into a fight for relevancy once again.
The Charlotte Hornets, meanwhile, have a tough road ahead with games against the top three seeds in the East. However, they’ve managed to nab wins against the Celtics and Knicks already this season, and behind the fourth-ranked offence in the NBA, it’s anyone’s game when players like LaMelo Ball, Brandon Miller and Kon Knueppel can get microwave hot.
On the other hand, the 76ers look to have the easiest remaining schedule, taking on tanking squads like the Pacers and Bucks — who they’re a combined 6-0 against this season — but a game against a Houston squad hoping to secure homecourt in the first round can still be a tough test for a 76ers team only just returning to health.

Crossing T’s and dotting I’s out West
Though the playoff picture is much clearer out West, with the top five seeds on their way to the playoffs and the No. 6 Timberwolves sitting pretty with a magic number of two, there are finer details that still need sorting out in the final week.
Permanently the centre of attention in the NBA, the most intriguing storyline out west could be the Lakers’ final stretch as they look to hold onto a top-three seed in the conference.
While the star backcourt duo of Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves could both be in Europe to seek medical advice, the onus of keeping the Lakers’ head above water rests on the shoulders of 41-year-old LeBron James and (checks notes) triple-double-threat Luke Kennard.
Heading into Tuesday’s action, the Lakers have lost two straight and are set to host the Thunder, who are sure to give it their all as they look to lock up the top seed and prevent the Spurs’ late-season push.
Advertisement
Past that, the Lakers square off against the Warriors, Suns and Jazz, which should be simpler matchups on paper, but James’ 30-point, 15-assist double-double on Sunday wasn’t enough to get the Lakers past the Mavericks, so chalking anything up is a mistake. Factor in the pride-on-the-line showdowns against Steph Curry and Dillon Brooks, and it’s clear the Lakers aren’t securing homecourt without a fight.
April 10 vs. Timberwolves
However, should the Lakers succeed in the final stretch, a tough schedule for the Denver Nuggets could be just what they need to steal the third seed. Though Denver is on a nine-game win streak heading into Tuesday, it’ll close the regular season against the Spurs and Thunder, with the pairing of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Victor Wembanyama hoping to put the finishing touches on their MVP cases.
The Lakers will also have to contend with a surging Rockets team carrying the momentum of a six-game win streak, while the Suns and 76ers are sure to put their best foot forward on Tuesday and Thursday, games against the T-Wolves — whose seeding could be decided by Friday — and Grizzlies, that will give them some reprieve to close the year as they gun for homecourt.
Advertisement
The other battle to watch in the West is between the Clippers and Blazers, who are within half games of one another. Should both teams keep pace, a showdown between the two sides on Friday could be the deciding factor that determines the final play-in picture.
