After a lengthy standoff, the New York Mets re-signed Pete Alonso to a two-year, $54 million contract over the offseason. While the deal kept the slugger in Queens for 2025, it also includes an opt out for the second year. And, barring an unforeseen disaster, Alonso will almost certainly re-enter free agency at the end of the season.

The Mets could work out a new contract with the five-time All-Star. But Alonso will have other suitors interested in a power-hitting corner infielder. It’s unclear if either side will prioritize the other in free agency. And Alonso reflected that uncertainty when discussing his future with the team.

“We’ll see what happens. I love it, it’s great. But you can’t really predict anything,” Alonso said, per New York Post Sports. “It’d be great to stay… whatever happens happens.”

The Jaxson Dart era in New York got off to a winning start, as the Giants upset the previously unbeaten Los Angeles Chargers 21-18 on Sunday at MetLife Stadium.

Dart was efficient, but somewhat limited by a left hamstring injury he suffered in the first half. Dart got his NFL starting QB career off to a good start with a 15-yard touchdown run on his first drive. The Giants went up-tempo in the Ole Miss product’s first game.  

Dart was efficient in the first half in leading the Giants to a 13-10 halftime lead (7 of 11 for 59 yards; six carries for 44 yards and a TD), but the rookie began grabbing his left hamstring to stretch it out late in the first half and was noticeably limping on the last drive before halftime as the Chargers have turned up the pressure.

Rookie Cam Skattebo ran for 79 yards on 25 carries as the Giants rushed for 161 yards on the afternoon.

For Los Angeles, Justin Herbert threw two crucial interceptions that put the Giants in good field position. He finished 23 of 41 for 203 yards passing. Dart only threw for 111, but added 54 yards on the ground with a passing and rushing touchdown. Rookie running back Omarion Hampton was a beast and rushed for 128 yards, including a 54-yard touchdown, on just 12 carries.

Symphony Technology Group managing partner Bill Chisholm has reportedly agreed to purchase the Boston Celtics from the Grousbeck family for a valuation for $6.1 billion, which is the largest sale of a North American sports franchise in history.

The sale surpasses the previous record set when a group led by billionaire Josh Harris purchased the NFL’s Washington Commanders for $6.05 billion in 2023.

The Grousbeck family made a massive profit off the sale, having initially purchased the Celtics for $360 million in 2002. The franchise is the winningest in NBA history with a league-best 3,684 regular season victories and 18 NBA championships, having entered the current 2024-25 season as defending world champions.

The New York Jets had a classic Jets outing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Tampa (3-0) took a 29-27 win over New York in a close contest. It did not feel that close but somehow the Jets stuck around and even took the lead late.

Then it happened. The Jets defense could not hold the Bucs offense and they kicked the game-winning field goal as time expired.

In the end, it was another ending that has been seen all too often in New York.

The loss brings the Jets’ record to 0-3 to start the 2025 season. Now the Jets move on to preparing for a road game against the Miami Dolphins on Monday Night Football next week.

Star quarterback Patrick Mahomes completed 22 of his 37 pass attempts for 224 yards and a touchdown against the Giants’ secondary.

Most NFL players have short careers. They only have a few seasons to prove they can be difference makers at their positions, or their teams and then the rest of the league moves on fast.

It’s a stressful world, and each season just about every player needs to prove his worth all over again. But to some players, there is extra pressure to perform this season to establish themselves as impact players or earn a big new contract.

Justin Fields got another chance to start from the Jets, who were a bit desperate after moving on from Aaron Rodgers. Fields got a two-year, $40 million deal, which would either be easy for the Jets to move on from after one season or for Fields to seek a long-term extension if he plays well. 

The Jets still have plenty of talent and there’s no real competition for Fields on the roster. He should get the season to prove what he can do. However, a poor preseason passing the ball didn’t inspire much confidence heading into the season. This might be Fields’ last good chance to establish himself as a regular starter in the NFL.

The Buffalo Bills cruised to a comfortable 30-10 victory over the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium.

The Bills jumped out to an early lead and coasted behind an efficient offensive performance and dominant defensive play.

James Cook led the way with two rushing touchdowns. Cook made a sensational, ankle-breaking 44-yard rush in the second quarter to add to the highlight reel from an otherwise quiet and workmanlike performance.

The Bills defense didn’t allow the Jets near the end zone until garbage time. Buffalo’s defense, playing without Ed Oliver, Taron Johnson, and Maxwell Hairston, held the Jets to under 100 total yards well into the fourth quarter.

Justin Fields completed just 3-of-11 passes for 27 yards before leaving the game with a concussion early in the fourth quarter.
