Alpine has confirmed Franco Colapinto will stay with the team for 2027, joining Pierre Gasly who was already announced for next year. Colapinto, who rose from a 2025 test/reserve role to race driver and has scored points this season (including a career-best sixth in Canada), will form Alpine's driver lineup as they push to climb higher in the standings.
Reds right-hander Hunter Greene underwent Tommy John elbow surgery and will miss the rest of this season and 12-18 months, effectively sidelining him for the 2027 season; it’s his second TJ procedure, raising questions about his return to form at age 28 and his long-term durability.
Major League Soccer unveils a compressed 2027 sprint season with 14 intra-conference games scheduled from February to April as part of the league’s transition into a new era.
Kansas City restructured Patrick Mahomes’ $78 million 2026 cap hit to free about $43.6 million for this offseason, bringing the Chiefs closer to compliance. But the 2027 cap is projected to top $85 million due to a vesting roster bonus and prior adjustments, meaning a new deal will be required after 2027. The contract, effectively in the late stages of a long extension, will rely on creative guarantees to manage deferred cap charges from multiple restructures. This sets up a pivotal, potentially cap-constrained path for the Chiefs as they navigate Mahomes’ future and the team’s roster needs beyond 2026.
Patrick Reed announced plans to return to the PGA TOUR later this year and pursue reinstatement for the 2027 season after resigning his TOUR membership following an unauthorized event in 2025. He would return as a non-member in 2026 and could compete in FedExCup Fall events before potentially reinstating to the past-champion category for 2027, while remaining an Honorary Lifetime Member on the DP World Tour. Reed sits No. 29 in the world rankings after winning the Dubai Desert Classic, but did not meet the Returning Member Program criteria, making Brooks Koepka the likely only player to return via that route.
Carolina Panthers GM Dan Morgan said the team intends to exercise Bryce Young’s 2027 contract option, a move that would guarantee about $26.5 million for the 2027 season. Young, entering his fourth year, has improved after a rocky 2024 and helped Carolina win the NFC South in 2025, giving him more time to prove he can become the franchise quarterback the Panthers hoped to draft first overall in 2023.
