Field Yates thinks fantasy football is catching up in popularity to the real thing.
“If you watch ‘SportsCenter though to the end, I’d bet if you put on an hour, there’s a pretty good chance, better than 50-50 you’re going to see at least one segment of fantasy sports,” he says in a recent interview.” I think it’s reflective of the appetite fans have for this type of content.”
ESPN has signed Yates to a new multi-year deal, ensuring he’ll be around to host both the daily “Fantasy Focus Football Podcast” as well as “Fantasy Football Now,” while contributing NFL analysis across several ESPN programs.
“Field is the epitome of versatility,” says Scott Clark, vice president of fantasy and betting content for ESPN, in a statement. “He is a rare talent that can move seamlessly from host to analyst to insider, from NFL Live to Fantasy,...

Update: Antonio Brown said on Wednesday that an injured ankle was behind his refusal to go into the Tampa Bay/New York Jets game.
Brown said he was going to have surgery on the injury, which he claimed the Buccaneers covered up and forced him into playing while hurt.
“Because of my commitment to the game, I relented to pressure directly from my coach [Bruce Arians] to play injured,” Brown said in a statement via his attorney Sean Burstyn. “Despite the pain, I suited up, the staff injected me with what I know was a powerful and sometimes dangerous painkiller that the Nflpa has warned against using, and I gave it all for my team.”
While on the sidelines, Brown said he told Arians he couldn’t go back in the game. That’s when he was told that he was “done.” He then doffed his equipment, threw his jersey into the crowd,...
