Carrick poised to become Manchester United's permanent head coach

Manchester United have reached a broad agreement with Michael Carrick to take the club's permanent head coach role, with a two-year deal and a 12-month option, pending final contracts. The club had considered other candidates but ratified the move after backing from co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe and ongoing background checks. Carrick has recorded 10 wins, three draws and two losses in his current spell and already enjoys the backing of the players.

LIRR at Risk of Shutdown as Wage Talks Hit Deadline

The Long Island Rail Road, North America’s busiest commuter line, faces a potential shutdown as unions and the MTA race toward a contract deal before a looming deadline. Unions representing about half of the 7,000 workers are pushing for roughly 16% wage increases over four years, while the MTA has floated a fourth-year lump-sum option totaling about 4.5%. A strike could begin if no agreement is reached by the 12:01 a.m. Saturday deadline, threatening a transit disruption for around 250,000 riders on weekdays; the MTA plans limited free shuttles during rush hours and Gov. Hochul urged telework where possible as talks continue.

Rodgers and Steelers: could an early-release escape hatch be on the table if 2026 sours?

The piece treats talk of a potential, unofficial escape-hatch clause in Aaron Rodgers’ Steelers deal as speculative, noting that veteran contracts are primarily about money and structure. It suggests one possible scenario: if Pittsburgh regresses early, Rodgers could seek a path to be released after Week 9 so he could sign elsewhere, but stresses any such arrangement would hinge on waivers timing and lacks substantiation.

Rodgers in Pittsburgh: Steelers Pursue a 2026 Pay Deal

Aaron Rodgers is in Pittsburgh as the Steelers try to finalize a 2026 contract, with his camp reportedly seeking a raise over last season’s $13 million and team officials potentially meeting this week if terms are agreed. The Steelers have placed a tender to gain a compensatory pick if he signs elsewhere, Rodgers could retire, and Pittsburgh’s QB depth chart remains Mason Rudolph, Will Howard, and Drew Allar. The piece also touches Browns’ KC Concepcion comparison to Zay Flowers and Joe Burrow’s approval of the Bengals’ offseason moves.

Pickens Pushes for Trade or Extension as Cowboys Hold Franchise Tag

The Steelers moved George Pickens to Dallas to avoid a long-term contract battle, but now the Cowboys have him under a franchise tag while he pushes for either a long-term deal or a trade. His camp has even explored other teams, though nothing materialized yet. With Dallas reluctant to commit to a long-term contract, the ongoing tension risks becoming ugly and reflects the very scenario Pittsburgh aimed to dodge.

Cowboys sidestep long-term deal for Pickens, lean on 2026 franchise tag

Stephen Jones says there will be no long-term contract for George Pickens in 2026, with Dallas planning to use the franchise tag (about $27.3 million) and defer a longer deal to 2027. The two-year payout would total roughly $60.9 million, well below current market value, giving the Cowboys leverage while Pickens weighs his options and the potential for a holdout or a one-year tender.
