NCAA – ACC, Clemson, Florida State approve settlement to end legal fight
The Atlantic Coast Conference, Clemson and Florida State have approved a settlement that would end their legal fights. The deal would change the league’s revenue-distribution model to factor in viewership ratings in payments to schools. That could benefit the league’s top brands and marquee programs. It also revises and clarifies long-term costs for a school to leave the conference. Each party approved the settlement Tuesday. Commissioner Jim Phillips said in a statement that the league is “united in an 18-member conference” for the future. All lawsuits in Florida and the Carolinas between the schools and the league will be dismissed.
NFL – Rams trading Jonah Jackson to Bears for 6th-round pick
The Los Angeles Rams have agreed to trade offensive lineman Jonah Jackson to the Chicago Bears for a sixth-round pick in the upcoming draft, a person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press. Jackson leaves the Rams following one tremendously disappointing season in which he failed to hold a starting job after signing a three-year, $51 million contract with Los Angeles as a free agent last spring. Jackson spent his first four NFL seasons with the Detroit Lions. Jackson initially was expected to be the Rams’ left guard, but he was moved to center during training camp.
NFL – Eagles make Barkley highest-paid running back with 2-year, $41.2M deal
Saquon Barkley will become the highest-paid running back in NFL history after his record-setting season helped the Philadelphia Eagles win the Super Bowl. The Eagles are giving Barkley a two-year contract extension worth $41.2 million with $36 million guaranteed, a person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press on Tuesday. The person, speaking on condition of anonymity because the extension hasn’t been announced, said Barkley’s new deal includes $15 million in incentives. Barkley ran for 2,504 yards in the regular season and playoffs, breaking Terrell Davis’ record for most yards rushing in one season.
