With starting linebacker Ivan Pace Jr. on injured reserve, working his way back from a hamstring injury, the Minnesota Vikings have given more reps to Kamu Grugier-Hill and rookie Dallas Turner in recent weeks to help pick up the slack. The Vikings also signed former first-round pick Jamin Davis on Nov. 26 to a minimum contract to help bolster the depth chart. Matt Holder of Bleacher Report recently predicted that GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah wasn't done sharpening the edges of his roster entering the season’s stretch run. In his NFC scouting reports for Week 14, Holder urged Adofo-Mensah and the Vikings to kick the tires on former three-time All-Pro linebacker Shaquille Leonard, a former $98.5 million, four-time All-Pro who remains a free agent. Here was Holder’s take on the potential move: “While the Vikings signed Jamin Davis to help fill in for Ivan Pace Jr., who was recently placed on injured reserve, it couldn't hurt to bring in Leonard as another option. The 29-year-old has a better track record than Davis and was solid against the run last year, racking up 88 total tackles in 14 games for two different teams.” During the 2023 season, Leonard played nine games for the Indianapolis Colts — the team that signed him to what was then one of the richest contracts in NFL history — and five games for the Philadelphia Eagles . He started three games for Philly last season due to injuries, and finished with 23 tackles and a sack. The fact that Philly opted to sign Devin White in free agency, only to cut White before he played a single regular season game, over Leonard is somewhat of a red flag. He’s been contemplating an uncertain future in the NFL, and landing in a place like Minnesota for a run at the Super Bowl could save what once looked like a legendary pro career. Would adding Shaquille Leonard bolster Minnesota’s Super Bowl hopes? Not in 2024. It would be one thing if Leonard spent time with another team this season. Instead, he’s been away from the NFL, spending the fall coaching a high school football team out in Georgia. Injuries unfortunately derailed Leonard’s career. He was unable to return to peak form following a serious back injury that required multiple surgeries, which is why the Colts waived him in the first place. Kicking the tires on Leonard feels more like a desperation move than a prudent one, and the Vikings aren’t close to that point with five games remaining in the regular season.

Read more about how we evaluate products . There are numerous options for concert earplugs nowadays, so you don't have to settle for the bargain bin foam bits that completely seal off your ears anymore. The PPE-grade products vary in design and performance, with some offering different levels of noise reduction. That hearing protection always comes with the promise that the earplugs won't completely muffle the band, which is a real problem when you have to settle for the generic foam versions from the bartender. Loop has been in the concert earplug game since its founding in 2016. In that time, its product roster has grown to encompass nine different models, including dedicated options for sleep, travel, commuting and social events in addition to concerts, festivals and sporting events. The Switch 2 ($59.95) is Loop's latest, an improved version of the original Switch that debuted the ability to change sound filter levels while the earplugs were still in your ears. To put the audio quality to the test, I took them to a 100dB rock show in a small venue last month. Loop/Engadget 88 100 Expert Score Loop Switch 2 The Switch 2 delivers on Loop's promise to safely filter loud noise without overly muffling the sound for social gatherings, concerts, commuting and more. Pros Easy to adjust while wearing Very comfortable Cons Priciest model from Loop Noise levels on vary by 3dB $60 at Loop Loop has maintained mostly the same design from its first model. There's a silicone ear tip, similar to those on wireless earbuds, that's attached to a circular loop where all the protective bits reside. In the case of the Switch 2, the outer half of that loop rotates to allow you to select between three levels of sound filtration: Engage, Experience and Quiet. These settings reduce noise by 20dB, 23dB and 26dB... Billy Steele
Kentucky will aim to improve upon its best start in seven seasons when it hosts Western Kentucky on Tuesday night in Lexington, Ky., in the final game of the BBN Invitational. The Wildcats (5-0) are ranked No. 8 in the latest Associated Press poll and are setting impressive offensive milestones even for a program as tradition-rich as Kentucky, which includes eight national championships. The Wildcats have scored 97 or more points in their first four home games for the first time in program history and eclipsed the 100-point mark in three of those games. Their lone trip out of state was a solid 77-72 victory over Duke in a matchup of top-10 teams in Atlanta. Kentucky has also made at least 10 three-pointers in each of its first five games of a season for the first time ever. "I think Kentucky attracts good people," Kentucky coach Mark Pope said after the Wildcats' 108-59 win over Jackson State on Friday. "It's the one place in all college basketball where you represent just a fanbase in a different, unique way." Otega Oweh and Koby Brea have led the Wildcats' early scoring outburst. Oweh, who is averaging 16.2 points per game, had 21 points on 8-for-12 shooting against Jackson State. "He gets us off to unbelievable starts every night," Pope told reporters after that game. "He's probably been our most consistent guy in games." Brea, who scored 22 points against Jackson State and is averaging 16.0 points per game, is leading the nation in 3-point accuracy at 74.1 percent. As a team, the Wildcats are shooting 42.3 percent from beyond the arc. And the few times they miss, Amari Williams has been doing the dirty work on the glass, averaging 10.8 boards in addition to 9.6 points per game. Kentucky faces a different challenge than it's had to contend with so far in the Hilltoppers (3-2), who have won three in a row after losing their first two games to Wichita State and Grand Canyon. Their up-tempo play hasn't exactly resulted in great offensive output, but in the Hilltoppers' 79-62 win over Jackson State on Wednesday, they shot 45.2 percent from 3-point range (14 for 31). "I was happy to see a lot of different guys contribute tonight and, hopefully, get their feet under them a little bit and get some confidence," said Western Kentucky coach Hank Plona, who is in his first season as head coach. "Obviously, Tuesday will be quite a test and challenge for us and we'll need them to be at their absolute best." Western Kentucky has an experienced group, which returned mostly intact from last season. The team is led by Conference USA first-team selection Don McHenry, who is leading the team with 17.2 points and 2.2 steals per game. McHenry is one of four Hilltoppers with scoring averages in double figures. Julius Thedford (11.4 points per game) and Babacar Faye (15.0) are each shooting 40 percent or better from 3-point range. Western Kentucky also figures to challenge the Wildcats on the boards as it enters the game ranked in the top 25 in defensive rebounding (30.4 per game). Faye leads the Hilltoppers in that department, averaging 7.8 rebounds per game and figures to battle Williams inside. "We're not the biggest team in the world, but our depth and our quickness are our strengths," Plona said. --Field Level Media
