Jaguars coach Doug Marrone believes defensive ends Dante Fowler and Yannick Ngakoue can coexist in the same locker room, in the same meeting room and even in the same huddle. Marrone provided little insight into what prompted the players' post-practice skirmish and declined to divulge why Fowler was suspended and Ngakoue was not. But Marrone made it clear he expects Fowler and Ngakoue to be able to work together moving forward.

ATLANTA — Ronald Acuna Jr. is only 20 years old, so he never gives much thought to his still-fledgling place in baseball history.

The upside to Jim Furyk finishing so early at the PGA Championship was being able to watch the final round on television, partly as a player but mostly as the Ryder Cup captain. And that meant seeing plenty of Tiger Woods. Furyk says he is excited about the eight players who qualified for the team, and would only say he's excited to see how Woods is playing.

Brooks Koepka is impossible to overlook now, winning the PGA Championship on Sunday with machine-like precision to go along with his back-to-back U.S. Open titles. And it still felt like he was the second billing to Tiger Woods, who had his closest call in a major in nine years

Unsigned first-round draft pick Roquan Smith is one of several problems unsolved by the end of training camp for the Chicago Bears. Another problem revolves around the offense. Quarterback Mitchell Trubisky's preseason debut didn't go very well. And injuries have begun piling up for the Bears as they prepare to leave Illinois for a week of practice and a game in Denver.

Ozzie Albies led off the seventh inning with a tiebreaking homer, one of three hit by Atlanta, and the Braves overcame 19 hits by Milwaukee to beat the Brewers 8-7. Ronald Acuna Jr. and Dansby Swanson hit two-run homers for Atlanta, which took two of three from the Brewers.

If Mississippi State's Nick Fitzgerald is going to have a storybook ending to his college career, first-year coach Joe Moorhead has to get off to a fantastic start. The Bulldogs are a popular pick to contend for the Southeastern Conference championship after finishing with a 9-4 record last season. But they must adjust to a new coaching staff. The relationship between Moorhead and Fitzgerald is particularly important as Mississippi State builds the offense.
