First, it was reported that Aaron Rodgers would remain with the Packers. The veteran quarterback supposedly had been “torn” between staying in Green Bay or playing elsewhere. Hours after the Rodgers news broke, the Seahawks agreed to trade longtime QB Russell Wilson and a fourth-round draft pick to the Broncos for a package of three players and five draft picks. Wilson spent the first 10 years of his career in Seattle; now, he will look to lead Denver to the postseason for the first time since 2015....

Federal prosecutors in New York had charged Bannon with fraud in New York arising from a non-profit called “We Build the Wall,” an online effort to raise money to build a wall along the southern border with Mexico. Trump’s pardon means Bannon will not now be at risk of conviction and imprisonment by federal authorities. However, several legal commentators have suggested Bannon could still face state charges for his alleged crimes....

MORE: Sam’s marketing opportunities | Sam at the Combine A mere three players out of the 60 or so on the Dolphins roster last season, active and injured players included, did the damage — and a case can be made that it was only one, Richie Incognito, with Mike Pouncey and John Jerry meekly and obediently following his lead. Their prime target, Jonathan Martin, was not gay or even suspected of being gay; he simply was an offensive linemate who they felt wasn’t up to their standard for “toughness....

It was pretty much the opposite on opening day Sunday at Heinz Field. Don’t get caught staring into the glare of the second half against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Hoyer almost led the Browns to a stirring comeback victory. But he helped them dig a 24-point halftime hole in the first place. And he definitely helped take them backwards on their final possession of the game, when just one first down would have all but guaranteed overtime....

[HTML1] Destiny: The Taken King is without a doubt one of 2015’s most highly anticipated titles. In order to meet expectations, Bungie has recently been teasing tons of information regarding the considerably large expansion, such as the introduction of two new multiplayer modes called Rift and Mayhem, in addition to the eight new maps being incorporated into the Crucible. During Bungie’s Weekly Update several days ago, the studio announced three walkthrough streams hosted by the game’s developers and community members to take place before the DLC’s release, which will continue until the game is officially available....

As for what Destiny players have to look forward to; the rumor right now is that Bungie will confirm private matches for Rise of Iron. It’s something that players, especially streamers and YouTubers, have been requesting for a while now, and the timing seems right. After all, Bungie dropped last-gen platforms just this week, and presumably that frees the developer to do some more processing and server intensive things with the game....

For those who might not know Xur’s Reef hiding spot, he’s fairly easy to find. Spawn into Destiny’s House of Wolves social space, head to the right and down a set of stairs, turn to the right, and Xur will be behind a futuristic door. Under normal circumstances the door is closed, but when Xur is in The Reef it opens. Xur’s exotic armor selection this weekend includes the Empyrean Bellicose helmet for Titans, the Knucklehead Radar helmet for Hunters, and the Nothing Manacles gauntlets for Warlocks....

But while players will miss zipping around Titan to complete quick Public Events or using the Castellum to farm Cabal kills, there are other elements of Destiny 2 that are also going away. Arguably one of the most useful is the Tribute Hall, which became a de facto firing range for the game once players acquired all of the upgrades/tributes. The Tribute Hall is Retiring In the Tribute Hall, Destiny 2 players could test out different builds, mods, and weapon perks to see how they affect enemies of certain difficulty tiers....

In the latest edition of “This Week At Bungie”, Bungie’s weekly Destiny 2 blog, Senior Designer Jon Weisnewski discussed some more exotic weapons receiving buffs in the May update, namely the scout rifle Skyburner’s Oath and the sidearm Rat King. The blog entry also came with videos to show the extent of the buffs which can be seen below. With the first weapon, Skyburner’s Oath, Weisnewski observed the gun is strong regardless of if its shot from the hip or while aiming down sites but “it lacks spectacle to give it that exotic feeling; it kind of plays just like any other gun....

In a scene that will be shocking for those who are familiar with the lore of Destiny, Cayde-6 is damaged and as the camera sweeps around it is shown that he is at the feet of Prince Uldren, who pulls the trigger of a hand cannon and kills the wise-cracking Hunter Vanguard. It looks as though Uldren is leading a revolt in the Prison of Elders and letting out the enemies that players will face in the expansion....

During today’s Bungie Bounty, the developers were asked a ton of questions about the Gambit mode. The queries ranged from whether Bungie will address the catch-up mechanic to how the mode changed during development. And while a lot of the answers were illuminating, the one that had most Destiny 2 fans excited was confirmation of a Gambit pinnacle weapon next season. Since this wasn’t a formal announcement, there are still a lot of questions surrounding the Gambit pinnacle weapon....

The first thing Destiny 2 players need to do is load into Last Wish and head to the Wall of Wishes. To get to the Wall of Wishes, players will want to head toward the first encounter but do not go in. Instead, head over to the left of the doorway toward the water and jump up on a ledge with a glowing blue plant. Players will want to follow a series of ledges and glowing plants until they are in front of the Wall of Wishes....

Afterward, players will be to open up the director and find the Volundr Forge in the EDZ. Go to the Sunken Isle spawn point and players will be able to find the forge directly southeast of the spawn in a cave called Smidur’s Cavern. Once there, Destiny 2 players will need to complete the new activity in the forge. Of course, as seen below, there are a few tricks to make this new activity slightly easier, one of which is to camp behind a few rocks and have one player nail the boss with Whisper of the Worm....

Now that Destiny 2: Season of Arrivals is live, players should have acquired at least one Umbral Engram. The first drops as part of the Season’s introductory quest and will be the way that players can influence their loot drops this season. However, the process of focusing an Umbral Engram is a little complex. Players will also need to acquire upgrades in order to fully determine what they want, and that requires leveling up the Season Pass....

Unlocking the Conqueror Seal and its corresponding title is not as straightforward as completing Grandmaster Nightfalls the first time around, as there are multiple requirements in place. RELATED: Destiny 2’s Hive Lightbearers May Predict What’s to Come in Lightfall, The Final Shape This guide explains how Destiny 2 players can get their own Seal and title or gild it if they already have it. How to Gild the Conqueror Seal Destiny 2 players who have unlocked the Conqueror Seal in the past can gild it during any given Season when Grandmaster Nightfalls become available, and it’s much easier than unlocking it for the first time....

With the current state of Nightfalls after the release of Destiny 2: Forsaken, there are different score tiers associated with the Nightfall when using the Challenge Card system. There are different tier thresholds that players are challenged to reach: 30,000 60,000 110,000 200,000 At each threshold the chances of getting the Nightfall exclusive drop increase. So then, to get the best chance of getting the rare drop is to complete a Nightfall above the 200,000-point threshold....

In order to get the Rasmussen’s Gift emblem in Destiny 2, first you need to equip the “Hammerhead” Machine Gun, which comes from the first Volundr Forge Quest. After you have equipped the gun, go back to the Volundr Forge area where you will need to shoot certain symbols in a specific order. As shown in the video below, first you need to shoot the blue flame from any location in the Forge, which will enable you to see the sun and moon symbols on the floor of the Forge....

The 28-year-old played the entirety of England’s 1-0 defeat to Belgium on Thursday and also came off the bench for the Three Lions’ comfortable 6-1 victory over Panama. Manchester City’s Delph has been given permission by England boss Gareth Southgate to temporarily leave the nation’s training camp, though is expected to return ahead of the round-of-16 clash with Colombia on Tuesday. Delph’s wife, Natalie, is due to give birth to the couple’s third child on Saturday and Southgate has been aware of the situation ever since the squad first assembled to begin preparations for the tournament....

The man, who was not identified, was detained by law enforcement after Flight 2349 landed at Logan International Airport in Boston on Sunday, WCVB reported. Mark French, who was also on the flight, told the station that the man apparently struck the flight attendant after she tried to stop him from opening the cabin door. “I saw the stewardess in first-class, it seemed like she jumped back. I learned she had been hit,” he told WCVB....

If the signs and flags remain up while voting is underway for the November 3 national elections, it would violate state laws on electioneering too close to a polling place. Hale himself has said the presence of the signs on Election Day would constitute an act of “voter intimidation.” Democratic Tennessee U.S. congressional candidate Christopher Hale alerted the Bradley County Election Commission after the county’s Democratic Party sent him an image of a local building that will reportedly serve as a polling location for the November 3 national elections....
