Episode description as stored

On this episode of Yesterday in Sports , Chris Horwedel examines the fallout from FIFA’s abandoned plan to sell private investors a minority interest in its World Cup commercial operation. FIFA President Gianni Infantino retains the support of senior management following a crisis meeting and formal apology, but significant governance questions remain after opposition from UEFA, Concacaf and the Asian Football Confederation. In the NFL, Atlanta confirms a season-ending injury for second-year defender Jalon Walker, forcing the Falcons to reconsider their pass-rush rotation before the preseason begins. Washington is also reportedly preparing to add veteran receiver Stefon Diggs as another proven target for Jayden Daniels, while San Francisco signs KhaDarel Hodge and Ogbo Okoronkwo for additional depth. NBA coverage focuses on Phoenix extending Dillon Brooks through the 2029–30 season following the strongest offensive year of his career. In soccer, Arsenal reportedly reaches an agreement with Newcastle for Brazilian midfielder Bruno Guimarães. Chris explains how the Newcastle captain could fit into Mikel Arteta’s midfield and why his potential departure would deepen an already difficult summer at St. James’ Park. The WNBA section covers Washington-Dallas, Atlanta-Phoenix, New York-Seattle and Chicago-Los Angeles, featuring Shakira Austin, Cotie McMahon, Rhyne Howard, Breanna Stewart, Jonquel Jones, Dominique Malonga and Kamilla Cardoso. Major League Baseball coverage includes Cubs-Dodgers, Cardinals-Yankees, Blue Jays-Astros, Nationals-Phillies, Diamondbacks-Padres, Brewers-Pirates, Royals-Twins, Rangers-Giants, Orioles-Angels, Red Sox-White Sox, Braves-Marlins, Reds-Athletics, Mets-Guardians, Mariners-Tigers and Rays-Rockies. The show closes with LIV Golf’s proposed new investment structure, a reduced event schedule and questions surrounding the futures of stars including Bryson DeChambeau and Jon Rahm. Hosted on Acast.
