Hall of Famer Warren Moon hints at new uniforms for the Tennessee Titans
Not only will the Tennessee Titans field a different team in 2025, but the players will soon look a bit different.
While everyone has known for some time that the team was changing its color scheme to embrace Titan Blue and ditch the Houston Oilers throwback in 2025, it wasn't clear how much change would be involved.
Last week, after Cam Ward's introductory press availability, Hall of Famer Warren Moon indicated that one of the reasons for allowing Ward to unretire his jersey number was because he felt it was unlikely that the Oilers jersey he made famous would ever see the field again.
On Friday, while talking to Kay Adams, Moon reiterated that and dropped a nugget on the future of the Titans' uniforms.
'The Tennessee Titans have new uniforms coming.' He said. 'A whole new set, and I've seen glimpses of them, but it's not the Houston Oilers jersey.'
After that tidbit, Adams pressed for more information about the uniforms, and Moon obliged with the following:
'They fit with the times, but they are a bit futuristic,' Moon said, 'They will advance with the times.'
No other information on the new uniforms was given, and no timeframe was alluded to, but it would be a good bet that they coincide with the opening of the new Nissan Stadium when the Titans start their next chapter in Nashville.

Falcons bring back familiar face at safety, release DB Benny Sapp III
The Atlanta Falcons announced another roster transaction on Monday afternoon, signing defensive back Josh Thompson and releasing Benny Sapp III in a corresponding move. The team signed Thompson last offseason but placed him on the injured reserve list before releasing him in early September. The 26-year-old caught on with the Tennessee Titans in 2022 after signing as an undrafted free agent. Thompson appeared in six games that season, playing exclusively on special teams for the Titans. Since his rookie year, Thompson has bounced on around a few practice squads, including the Houston Texans. Advertisement Sapp, 24, is also a former undrafted free agent who last appeared in a regular season game for the Green Bay Packers in 2023. He primarily played on special teams for the Packers aside from three snaps played on defense. On Monday, the Falcons resumed organized team activities (OTAs) without Kirk Cousins or Kyle Pitts. Cousins was a no-show, as expected, while Pitts was battling an injury, per head coach Raheem Morris.

NHL futures bettors can take advantage of postseason chalk
Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. The NHL prides — and markets — itself on parity. Hockey is a chaotic, unpredictable sport, and the perception is that anybody can win. On any given night, in any given season, we are to expect the unexpected in the National Hockey League. And while there are plenty of upsets and surprises in the regular season, the playoffs were incredibly chalky. Only one underdog (Dallas Stars over Colorado Avalanche) advanced in Round 1, and there were no more upsets until the Stanley Cup Final, when the Panthers lifted the trophy after starting their best-of-seven series with the Oilers as a slight +110 pooch Not exactly David vs. Goliath. Brad Marchand of the Florida Panthers kisses the Stanley Cup. Sam Navarro-Imagn Images In 2023-24, it wasn't all that different. All eight favorites advanced in Round 1 last spring, and just two teams (Rangers over Carolina Hurricanes in Round 2 and Oilers over Stars in Round 3) pulled an upset during the playoffs. This is not normal. In the previous playoffs, there was an average of six upsets, including a handful of real shockers. Going back to the 2013-14 season, when the NHL realigned and changed playoff formats, the average Opening Night price of the Stanley Cup winner is +1250, with just two teams cashing at anything above 15/1 odds. The 2023-24 Florida Panthers started the season as a 20/1 outsider, while the 2018-19 St. Louis Blues began that campaign at 30/1. The last time there was a true long-shot winner was back in 2005-06, the first season after a lockout wiped out the entire 2004-05 campaign, when the Carolina Hurricanes stunned everyone at 60/1 odds. It's also worth noting that the betting landscape (not just in hockey, but all sports) has changed significantly over that time, which has caused future odds to tighten. It was a rarity to see more than two or three teams start the NHL season with single-digit prices, even a couple of years ago, but now things are incredibly bunched up at the top of the board. There are five teams with Stanley Cup odds less than 10/1 odds at FanDuel Sportsbook for the 2025-26 campaign, and there are four more under 20/1. Your next Stanley Cup champion will likely come from that cohort. That sounds like an obvious thing to say, but it is worth bringing up because of the reputation that hockey has among sports fans and bettors. Betting on the NHL? The NBA playoffs are supposed to be chalky and predictable, while the NHL's postseason is assumed to be full of upsets and Cinderellas. That just isn't the case anymore. The NBA postseason have had five upsets (and potentially a sixth if the Pacers win Sunday) this season, and there were 11 more in the previous two tournaments. Vladimir Tarasenko and the St. Louis Blues won the Stanley Cup as a 30/1 outsider. AP The last six teams to make it to the NBA Finals have had average odds of 22/1, and that includes last year's Boston Celtics, who were +400 on Opening Night, and the current favorite Oklahoma City Thunder, who owned +500 odds to start this season. The last six teams to make it to the Stanley Cup Final have had average odds of 16/1, and no teams that entered the season at 20/1 or longer have made it to the championship series since the Montreal Canadiens did so in the shortened 2020-21 campaign. Maybe the pendulum will swing back the other way and we'll see some chaos in 2025-26, but as it stands right now, the NHL's reputation for being unpredictable is fake news.

Oilers' Connor McDavid Receives Surprising Prediction From NHL Insider
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Edmonton Oilers and superstar center Connor McDavid made their second straight run to the Stanley Cup Final this season. Once again, they faced the Florida Panthers in the series and they once again came up short. After losing in seven games last season, the Oilers fell in six games to close out the 2024-25 campaign. It was another heartbreaking way to lose, coming up just short of a championship. McDavid is arguably the best player in the NHL right now. However, there are some question regarding his future moving forward. Connor McDavid #97 of the Edmonton Oilers celebrates after scoring a goal against Casey DeSmith #1 of the Dallas Stars during the second period in Game Five of the Western Conference Final of the 2025... Connor McDavid #97 of the Edmonton Oilers celebrates after scoring a goal against Casey DeSmith #1 of the Dallas Stars during the second period in Game Five of the Western Conference Final of the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs at American Airlines Center on May 29, 2025 in Dallas, Texas. More Photo byAt this point, McDavid has just one more year on his contract. Next offseason, he could become a free agent if he doesn't work out an extension with Edmonton. Read more: Bruins Emerging as Potential Suitor to Steal Connor McDavid No one knows what this offseason will hold when it comes to a potential extension, but there are a lot of teams around the league who would love a chance to pursue him in free agency. With that being said, NHL insider Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic has offered a surprising outlook and prediction for McDavid's future. He believes that McDavid could prioritize a short-term deal as opposed to a massive long-term contract. LeBrun does believe that McDavid will re-sign with the Oilers, but he doesn't think he's going to sign a maximum extension. "There's a good chance McDavid will sign a shorter deal instead of an eight-year max one," LeBrun wrote. " Whether that's two years or three or five or six, time will tell. McDavid is still only 28. So a three-year deal, for instance, would put him back in an unrestricted-free-agent leverage position at 31, when he's still in his prime." Read more: Maple Leafs Named Possible Threat to Steal Brad Marchand During the 2024-25 NHL season, McDavid put together big numbers once again. He appeared in 67 games, scoring 26 goals and dishing out 74 assists for a grand total of 100 points. He also shot 13.3 percent. In the postseason, McDavid was dominant once again. He played in 22 games, scoring seven goals and recording 26 assists for 33 total points. His future will be one of the most talked about storylines in the NHL heading into next offseason if he hasn't signed a new deal with Edmonton. Should he become available, he would have a long list of teams calling him and trying to get him to leave the Oilers. For more NHL and sports news, head to Newsweek Sports.
