The Dallas Cowboys made a significant move by trading four-time Pro Bowl edge rusher Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers for defensive tackle Kenny Clark and two first-round draft picks. Parsons, who recently requested a trade, signed a four-year, $188 million contract with Green Bay, setting a record for the highest salary for a non-quarterback in NFL history. In another highlight, the Seattle Sounders advanced to the Leagues Cup Championship after a 2-0 victory over the LA Galaxy, marking a successful revenge for last year's playoff exit. The match featured goals from Pedro de la Vega and Osaze De Rosario, ensuring the Sounders remain unbeaten in the tournament. They will face Lionel Messi and Inter Miami in the championship match this Sunday at Lumen Field.

In MLB, the Seattle Mariners are currently two games behind the Houston Astros in the AL West division with just 28 games remaining in the regular season. The Mariners will begin their penultimate road trip against the Cleveland Guardians tomorrow. Additionally, the Seattle Storm is vying for a playoff spot, holding a slim lead over the Los Angeles Sparks as they prepare for their final road game of the season.
