Jaylon Smith (LB Green Bay Packers)

Green Bay Packers reach agreement with former Dallas Cowboys LB Jaylon Smith on 1-year deal

The Green Bay Packers didn't land former All-Pro cornerback Stephon Gilmore but may have found help for their defense after all in former Dallas Cowboys linebacker Jaylon Smith.

Smith reached an agreement Thursday morning on a one-year deal, his agent, Doug Hendrickson of Wasserman, told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The move came less than 24 hours after news broke that the Packers were a potential suitor for Gilmore shortly before he was traded from the New England Patriots to the Carolina Panthers for a 2023 sixth-round draft pick. But the Packers did not have enough salary-cap space to acquire Gilmore in a trade because they would have to inherit the remaining $5.8 million of his base salary on this year's salary cap. The Packers have only about $6.5 million in cap space and still need room for the in-season moves that injuries might necessitate.

Smith, however, fits under the cap because the Cowboys are on the hook for the entirety of his $7.2 million base salary this season as a result of veteran termination pay rules.

Summer Concerts

Right on! I heard the shows were great, I couldn't make any this year. The wife and I caught one Phish show at Dick's a few years back, great time and a great venue! I love the soccer-sized field, seemed nice and roomy. Hope it was great for you!

I've been lucky enough to catch a few shows this summer, Billy and the Kids at Red Rocks back in July (was able to hit both nights, killer band with Billy Strings, etc.) and the wife and I saw Herbie Hancock play last Saturday at the outdoor venue at Gardens at Spring Creek here in Fort Collins. Herbie is 81 and he still brings it! Really great show and great band!

@colobuck79 we should meet up for a proper beer or 3 this fall - would love to hang out some time!

10-4 on that. I still have a boy in the Fort but haven't made it up there in awhile. The Phish show was great. I'm getting too old to do three shows on consecutive nights, so just the Saturday show this year.

Duke basketball recruiting: Dereck Lively II, the No. 2 recruit in 2022, picks Blue Devils over Kentucky, UNC

The second-ranked recruit in the Class of 2022, Dereck Lively II, committed to Duke on Monday evening over a final list that included Kentucky and hometown favorite Penn State. Lively II, who was the top uncommitted five-star in his class, puts Duke into the driver's seat to secure the top spot in the team rankings for the cycle with his commitment.

Lively II is the third five-star commitment for Duke in the 2022 class and the third top-10 prospect to commit to the program since July, joining Dariq Whitehead and Kyle Filipowski. A 7-foot-1 center from Bellefonte, Pennsylvania's Westtown School, Lively II follows Filipowski as the second center in the class for Duke in what will be the first recruiting class to arrive on campus next year for Mike Krzyzewski's successor, Jon Scheyer.
