One surprise veteran is making an early case to be a difficult player for the Chicago Bears to cut at the end of training camp. The Bears appeared to be set at the position with starters DJ Moore, Rome Odunze, and Luther Burden III. Tyler Scott, Olamide Zaccheaus, and Devin Duvernay seemed like the most likely options to keep on the 53-man roster. But Miles Boykin, whom the Bears signed in April, has shown he’s more than a camp body during the first two OTAs open to the media in May.

The Chicago Cubs have three more games remaining in the month of May before they set their sights on a busy June. The Cubs will play 27 games in June and will have a streak where they play 26 games in 27 days. The Cubs should enter June feeling good about their prospects of making the postseason. Chicago enters their matchup against the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday night with a 34-21 record and a three-game lead on the St. Louis Cardinals for first place in the NL Central.

The Green Bay Packers ruffled some feathers on the roster when they took Matthew Golden with the No. 23 pick in the draft. It was the first time the Packers took a receiver in the first round in 23 seasons, when they selected Javon Walker in 2022. Wide receiver was suggested to be an area of need for Green Bay, especially with Christian Watson recovering from a knee injury he suffered in Week 18.
