This weekend was packed with dramatic sports news developments. The Cleveland Browns face potential setbacks as tight end David Njoku might have sustained a high ankle sprain, while the Cowboys' Jake Ferguson is expected to recover from a knee injury he suffered. Both incidents occurred during Sunday's games.

In a surprising victory, the New England Patriots, under new head coach Jerod Mayo, upset the Cincinnati Bengals with a 16-10 win. The victory marked a memorable start to Mayo's head coaching career as he managed to lead the team effectively, steering them away from costly errors.

Meanwhile, Jannik Sinner made history by becoming the first Italian man to win the U.S. Open, defeating Taylor Fritz in the final. Sinner's win was especially significant given the distractions leading up to the event, which included clearing his name from doping allegations.
