Quick Glance: Chiefs Select Xavier Worthy in 2024 NFL Draft

The Kansas City Chiefs selected Xavier Worthy, the fastest player in the 40-yard dash, in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft.

Worthy broke John Ross' 40-yard dash record and was chosen by the Chiefs at No. 28.

A former track athlete, Worthy translated his speed and explosiveness to the football field, excelling at the University of Texas.

The Chiefs acquired an explosive wide receiver in Worthy, capable of separating from coverage and serving as a vertical threat. Worthy believes he is now the fastest player in the NFL.

Umpire Hunter Wendelstedt Doubles Down on Aaron Boone Ejection Debacle: Wendelstedt refuses to admit he ejected Boone for something a fan said.

Quick Glance: Yankees' Aaron Boone Ejected for Fan-Heckling of MLB Umpire in Unusual Incident: 'I Don't Care Who Said It'

Yankees manager Aaron Boone was ejected early in the game against the A's at Yankee Stadium after a fan yelled something. This marked his 35th career ejection, with a rather unusual reason this time.

Umpire Hunter Wendelstedt warned Boone of an ejection after just five pitches if another word was said. A fan behind the dugout shouted something, leading Wendelstedt to toss Boone out of the game.

Boone's reactions, including pointing to the crowd, were captured on video. In one clip, Boone can be heard denying he said anything. Despite Wendelstedt's error in judgment, the ejection stood, making for a highly entertaining situation.

Although Wendelstedt misinterpreted the situation and Boone was innocent, the ejection remained. Nevertheless, the whole incident was incredibly entertaining, and Boone's 35 ejections in a short span of time is quite an impressive feat.

Quick Glance: Lifetime Ban as Warning to NBA Gamblers: Coach

Commissioner Adam Silver's firm stance on Raptors bench player Jontay Porter serves as a cautionary tale for potential NBA gamblers.

The NBA's decision to ban Jontay Porter due to his involvement in gambling did not come as a surprise to anyone in the league.

NBA bit players pose a gambling risk and were seen as an ideal example in this cautionary tale, as mentioned by an NBA coach.

Porter's limited significance as a player will lead to the story fading quickly, even though it may be referenced in relation to his brother Michael Porter Jr. and the Nuggets during the playoffs.
