Sunday Sports Update
Top: The Buffalo Bills made five selections on Day 3 of the NFL Draft on Saturday, but perhaps none more interesting than Jake Fromm (left). Fromm, who compiled a 35-7 record in his three seasons at Georgia, was drafted in Round 5 and is likely to compete with Matt Barkley for the Bills' backup quarterback spot behind Josh Allen. The Bills also grabbed a pair of receivers on Day 3, including Central Florida's Gabriel Davis (right) in Round 4. Davis had a productive 2019 campaign, catch 72 passes for 1,241 yards and 12 touchdowns with the Knights.

Multiple sources are reporting today that Winston, a former Number 1 overall draft pick, is expected to sign a one-year deal with the New Orleans Saints. Winston set a Buccaneers franchise record with 5,109 passing yards in 2019, but also threw an NFL-high 30 interceptions. Photo by USA Today
Bottom right: Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, the NHL is still looking to award the Stanley Cup this summer. ESPN reports that the league's plan would involve sequestering teams in four different locations. However, that plan is contingent on local health authorities, as well as when the U.S.-Canada border reopens.
