    Preseason AP Poll is Here | Giants Trying to Tame Jaxson Dart | Dan Orlovsky's QB Rankings

    Grant & Tanner cover it all in this one — Jaxson Dart back in the medical tent and the Giants getting in their own way again under John Harbaugh, the new college football AP Top 25 with Ohio State at one and Alabama out of the top 10 for the first time since 2008, and Dan Orlovsky's quarterback rankings that show heavy favoritism toward Herbert, Maye, and Darnold. GIANTS KEEP GETTING IN THEIR OWN WAY Jaxson Dart is in the blue medical tent again in his second preseason opener — and it's not the first time. Cam Skattebo keeps making questionable decisions. The roster hasn't come together under John Harbaugh the way anyone hoped. Grant & Tanner debate whether New York hired the right coach and whether this franchise can get out of its own way long enough to compete. NEW CFB AP TOP 25 — OHIO STATE #1, INDIANA #6, ALABAMA OUT OF THE TOP 10 The Buckeyes are the preseason favorite. The defending national champion Hoosiers are somehow only sixth. And Alabama is out of the top 10 for the first time since 2008 — the most remarkable data point in the entire poll. Grant & Tanner break down every ranking worth debating and tell you where they disagree with the voters. DAN ORLOVSKY'S QB RANKINGS GOT IT WRONG Heavy favoritism for Justin Herbert, Drake Maye, and Sam Darnold — and players with better track records getting pushed down as a result. Grant & Tanner break down exactly where Orlovsky went wrong, who got robbed, and what the corrected version of his list should actually look like. BOTTOM LINE: Three big stories today — a franchise in chaos before the season starts, a college football power ranking that's already generating debate, and a quarterback list that needs significant corrections.

    Jayden Daniels is DONE with LSU | Mendoza Makes his Debut | Indiana will Welcome the Bears

    Grant & Tanner cover it all in this one — the real story behind Jayden Daniels' cease-and-desist to LSU that everyone is getting wrong, Fernando Mendoza, Jeremiyah Love, and Carnell Tate making their NFL preseason debuts, and the Chicago Bears announcing a move to Indiana while keeping the Chicago name — plus why Ben Johnson saying his goal is to score more points than anyone has Grant & Tanner raising serious questions. JAYDEN'S LSU CEASE-AND-DESIST — THE REAL STORY It's not about the jersey number. It's about NIL rights used beyond the contractual window. Grant & Tanner break down what Jayden's legal team actually alleged, why the media narrative is completely off, and whether Jayden and his camp were right to send the letter. MENDOZA, LOVE, AND TATE MAKE THEIR NFL DEBUTS Three of the most anticipated rookies from the 2026 draft class got their first NFL action. Grant & Tanner break down Fernando Mendoza's Raiders debut, Jeremiyah Love's first carry for the Cardinals, and whether Carnell Tate — the receiver the Commanders reportedly wanted at pick seven — lived up to the billing in his first appearance as a Titan. BEARS MOVING TO INDIANA — AND BEN JOHNSON'S CONFUSING GOAL The Chicago Bears are leaving Chicago and keeping the Chicago name anyway. And their head coach says his goal is to score more points than any other team — not win the Super Bowl. Grant & Tanner break down both stories and explain why Johnson's stated priorities have them more confused than confident heading into his first season. BOTTOM LINE: Three stories that couldn't be more different — a misreported legal dispute, a generation of rookies getting their first NFL taste, and a franchise with more identity questions than answers.

    Shedeur Sanders is being Shopped by Browns | Caleb Downs Makes Dallas a Champion | NFL Preseason Week 1 Picks

    Grant & Tanner cover it all in this one — ESPN's Cleveland reporters saying Shedeur Sanders could be cut or traded before the season, Caleb Downs lighting up Cowboys training camp and what it means for the NFC East race, and full NFL preseason week one picks including Lions +6.5 against Burrow and the Bengals, Colts over the Patriots, Seahawks over the Cowboys, and more. SHEDEUR SANDERS COULD BE CUT OR TRADED BEFORE THE SEASON ESPN's Cleveland reporters are floating the possibility — and Grant & Tanner aren't surprised. They break down why Shedeur's headline-generating nature makes him unworkable as a backup, give a fair critique of his rookie performance, and identify which teams should be on the phone with Cleveland right now. CALEB DOWNS IS LIGHTING IT UP AT COWBOYS CAMP Eleven teams passed on him and they're all looking foolish right now. Grant & Tanner break down what Downs is showing at Dallas camp, how much better he makes the Cowboys' defense, and whether this is the piece that pushes Dallas past Washington and Philadelphia in the NFC East race. NFL PRESEASON WEEK 1 PICKS Lions +6.5 against Joe Burrow and the Bengals. Colts over the Patriots. Seahawks over the Cowboys. Grant & Tanner go through every notable preseason week one matchup, give their picks and their reasoning, and identify the games worth watching most closely. BOTTOM LINE: Three big stories to open preseason week one — a first-round pick who might not make his team's roster, a draft steal making everyone look bad, and a full slate of picks to kick off the 2026 NFL preseason.

    Carson Beck Dominates HOF Game | Commanders Sign Stefon Diggs | Aaron Donald Nearing a Return?!

    Grant & Tanner cover it all in this one — Aaron Donald coming out of retirement to practice with the Rams and whether LA is now the prohibitive Super Bowl favorite, the Commanders landing Stefon Diggs and what it means for their playoff chances and Brandon Aiyuk's NFL future, and a wild Hall of Fame game where Carson Beck impressed in his Cardinals debut and Haynes King hit a time-expiring walk-off touchdown to give the Panthers a 33-30 win. AARON DONALD IS BACK — ARE THE RAMS THE SUPER BOWL FAVORITE? The greatest defensive player of his generation is practicing with Los Angeles again. Grant & Tanner break down what Donald still brings at this stage of his career, whether he actually plays in a regular season game, and whether his return pushes the Rams from NFC favorite to prohibitive Super Bowl favorite. COMMANDERS SIGN DIGGS — PLAYOFFS BOUND, AND IS AIYUK DONE? Jayden Daniels now has Terry McLaurin, Stefon Diggs, Antonio Williams, Chig Okonkwo, and Bill Croskey-Merritt around him. Grant & Tanner give their updated NFC power ranking for Washington, debate whether this roster is genuinely built to compete in January, and ask the uncomfortable question: with Diggs off the board and the 49ers showing no signs of releasing him, is Brandon Aiyuk's NFL career effectively over? HALL OF FAME GAME — CARSON BECK SHINES, HAYNES KING WALKS IT OFF Carson Beck looked like the real deal in his Cardinals debut. Haynes King hit a time-expiring touchdown to give the Panthers a wild 33-30 win. Grant & Tanner break down the real takeaways from Canton and what they're watching for in the preseason games ahead. BOTTOM LINE: Three massive stories to open the 2026 NFL preseason — a legend returning, a receiver room transformed, and a Hall of Fame game that actually delivered.

    Everyone is HURT on the 49ers | Bijan Robinson Signs Record Deal | Aaron Rodgers goes off on ESPN

    Grant & Tanner cover it all in this one — the 49ers' injury situation getting worse with Ricky Pearsall done for the year and Mike Evans banged up, Bijan Robinson signing the richest running back contract in NFL history and what it means for Jahmyr Gibbs' holdout and the OPOY race, and Aaron Rodgers going on Pat McAfee to hit Fauci, call out Diana Russini, and blast ESPN for their silence on the Vrabel scandal. 49ERS INJURY NIGHTMARE KEEPS GETTING WORSE Ricky Pearsall is done for the year. Mike Evans has a quad strain. And there's more. Grant & Tanner break down what's left of Kyle Shanahan's receiver room, whether the 49ers can still compete in the NFC West, and just how far their floor has dropped before a single regular season snap. BIJAN ROBINSON SIGNS ALL-TIME RECORD RB DEAL $75 million total. $25 million per year. $51 million guaranteed. The richest running back contract in NFL history is done — and Grant & Tanner break down every number, why Jahmyr Gibbs should end his holdout immediately now that the market is set, and who wins Offensive Player of the Year between the two best running backs in football. AARON RODGERS UNLOADS ON PAT McAFEE Fauci and COVID. Diana Russini's relationship with Mike Vrabel. And a direct shot at ESPN for their near-total silence on a scandal involving one of their own reporters. Grant & Tanner react to all of it — breaking down whether Rodgers has a legitimate point about ESPN's coverage and how much credibility he has making these arguments. BOTTOM LINE: Three massive stories today — a contender falling apart before the season starts, a running back market that just got completely reset, and Aaron Rodgers doing what Aaron Rodgers does best.  Send us Fan Mail FOLLOW US ON: YouTube- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBN4zGZtlyfETCNE6hi1zGQ Twitter - https://twitter.com/WSNsports Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/worldsportsnetwork Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/wsn_worldsportsnetwork/ TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@worldsportsnetwork

    Jalen Hurts Looks BAD at Training Camp | 49ers Sign Deebo | Baker isn't getting a Long Term Deal with Buccaneers

    Grant & Tanner cover it all in this one — Jalen Hurts off to a slow start at Eagles camp and how much the AJ Brown trade actually hurts Philadelphia, the 49ers signing Deebo Samuel back after a wave of receiver injuries and why San Francisco has one of the most extreme ceiling-floor splits in football, and Baker Mayfield declaring he's done negotiating with Tampa Bay and what comes next for him and the Buccaneers. HURTS SLOW AT EAGLES CAMP — HOW MUCH DOES LOSING AJ BROWN HURT? Jalen Hurts is off to a slow start and the best receiver in the NFC East for the last three seasons is gone. Grant & Tanner break down whether the slow camp start is noise or signal, how Philadelphia replaces Brown's production, and whether the defending Super Bowl champions can still be the class of the conference without him. 49ERS REUNITE WITH DEEBO — HIGH CEILING, LOW FLOOR Ricky Pearsall and several others are already hurt and it's not even preseason yet. The 49ers brought Deebo Samuel back out of necessity — and Grant & Tanner break down what that means for San Francisco's ceiling, their increasingly concerning floor, and whether this team can stay healthy long enough to make a legitimate Super Bowl run. BAKER MAYFIELD IS DONE NEGOTIATING WITH TAMPA Mayfield says the Buccaneers disrespected him by not offering a long-term deal — and he's walking away from the table. Grant & Tanner break down the realistic landing spots for Baker, whether Tampa made a mistake, and whether the generational 2027 quarterback class should change how the Buccaneers approach the next twelve months at the position. BOTTOM LINE: Three teams with major question marks heading into the season — a defending champion dealing with a receiver void, a contender running out of healthy bodies, and a quarterback market that just got a lot more interesting.

    LeBron is Headed to Philly by Helicopter | Jerry Jeudy Wants Deshaun to Start | Kyle Shanahan is Okay After Accident

    Grant & Tanner cover it all in this one — Jerry Jeudy going on record wanting Deshaun Watson over Shedeur Sanders then trying to walk it back, LeBron James choosing Philadelphia and whether the 76ers can actually compete, and the uncomfortable questions surrounding Kyle Shanahan's car accident and why it took 11 days for the cell phone detail to become public. JERRY JEUDY WANTS WATSON OVER SHEDEUR — THEN TRIES TO TAKE IT BACK Jeudy went on record preferring Deshaun Watson over a first-round pick in Shedeur Sanders — and then backtracked almost immediately. Grant & Tanner break down what he actually said, whether the walkback was genuine or damage control, and what locker room tension before camp even opens means for Cleveland's season. LEBRON JOINS THE 76ERS LeBron James has chosen Philadelphia. Grant & Tanner break down whether the 76ers are genuinely built to compete around a 41-year-old LeBron alongside Joel Embiid and Jaylen Brown, who the real leader of this team is, and whether this is a legitimate title contender or just the most fascinating storyline in basketball. KYLE SHANAHAN'S CAR ACCIDENT — WHY DID IT TAKE 11 DAYS? The investigation says Shanahan wasn't at fault — but he did have a cell phone in his hand. And none of that information became public for 11 days. Grant & Tanner break down the timeline, what the delay actually means, and whether the 49ers were deliberately managing this story. BOTTOM LINE: Three massive stories today — a locker room divide before a single snap of camp, one of the most intriguing roster constructions in recent NBA memory, and a head coach story that raises real questions about transparency.

    Diego Pavia has been Cut | Veteran Wide Receiver Drama | Jake Paul Wants to Play in the NFL

    Grant & Tanner cover it all in this one — Tyreek Hill revealing his knee still has no power ten months after surgery and what that means for his NFL future, Brandon Aiyuk buying a house in Virginia in the latest twist of the never-ending saga, and Jake Paul claiming NFL teams have reached out about him playing receiver for the Browns — and why Grant & Tanner aren't buying a single word of it. TYREEK HILL SAYS HIS KNEE HAS NO POWER Ten months after his knee injury and Hill is publicly saying he has no power. Grant & Tanner break down what that actually means for his recovery timeline, whether he plays at all in 2026, and whether — at 32 years old coming off a serious knee injury — the greatest speed receiver in NFL history might be done for good. BRANDON AIYUK BOUGHT A HOUSE IN VIRGINIA From confirmed Virginia resident to confirmed Virginia homeowner. Grant & Tanner break down what this latest development actually means for the Aiyuk-to-Commanders saga, whether buying a house changes the calculus on the timeline, and where things stand heading into training camp. JAKE PAUL WANTS TO PLAY RECEIVER FOR THE BROWNS Jake Paul says NFL teams have reached out and he wants to suit up as a wide receiver in Cleveland. Grant & Tanner are not impressed. They break down exactly why this has no chance of happening, what it would actually take to play in the NFL, and why this is pure publicity rather than a legitimate football conversation. BOTTOM LINE: Three stories that couldn't be more different — a legitimate superstar fighting to get his body right, a receiver saga that just keeps getting stranger, and a celebrity stunt dressed up as a sports story.
