Has the tush been pushed too far?

The controversial play mastered and made famous by the Philadelphia Eagles continues to come under attack from all sides. Now they might’ve lost one of their own in the heated debate.

Jason Kelce spoke with USA TODAY Sports and noted that plenty of people are upset with the ‘tush push,’ while also giving a reason for its potential ban.

‘If they can’t officiate it properly, that would certainly be a reason to ban it,’ Kelce told USA TODAY Sports. ‘That’s the reality of it.’

While he didn’t specifically say what the league’s ruling should be on the play, Kelce did express concern about whether a ban fixes anything.

‘Does removing the push affect the issues that people are having officiating it?’ Kelce questioned. ‘I don’t know that removes … everybody has an issue with the false starts.

‘The offensive line is still gonna operate the same way whether it’s tush push or a quarterback sneak,’ Kelce added. ‘The play in the Giants game – they ruled the forward progress stopped. I think it was a bad call. Like it looks like a fumble to me, probably should’ve been a fumble.’

Kelce pointed out that he isn’t certain the play would’ve been called differently if it was a traditional quarterback sneak.

‘Now if people just want to punish the Eagles because they’re getting away with a lot of bad calls, I certainly understand that,’ Kelce said. ‘But I also haven’t seen the struggling to officiate it with other teams running it. The Eagles aren’t the only team that run it, but very coincidentally I often see only the Eagles being brought up online. I think that probably has more to do with the Eagles being better at it than anyone else.’

The former Eagles center also reiterated the reasons for his visit to the league meetings in May, saying he just wanted to dispel rumors around player safety and the idea that he retired due to the play. It’s unclear what impact Kelce might’ve had on the final vote, but the ban was two teams short of being passed.

Unsurprisingly, the discussion has only intensified during the season. The league acknowledged that it is difficult to officiate the play, but there has been an emphasis on trying to spot false starts and more.

As for the fate of the play, Kelce didn’t take a side, but did provide an off-ramp for those who want to pass a ban.

‘If the NFL thinks it’s unfair or they can’t officiate it, those would obviously be good reasons to ban the play,’ Kelce said. ‘I don’t think banning it because it’s ugly is a good reason – that seems pretty subjective.’

Any vote involving the ‘tush push’ will have to wait until the offseason. Whether a ban is passed or not, it appears this issue isn’t going away anytime soon.

Corcel Exploration

Investor Insight

With a seasoned technical team, backing from Inventa Capital, and a district-scale asset in Arizona, Corcel Exploration is positioned to unlock a significant US-based copper-gold system at a time of accelerating demand for energy transition metals.

Overview

Corcel Exploration (CSE:CRCL,OTCQB:CRLEF) is a Vancouver-based mineral exploration company focused on copper and gold discoveries across North America, with a primary focus on Arizona’s Yuma King project. The company is leveraging a combination of historical data, modern geoscience and advanced technology to identify and expand near-surface and buried mineralized systems.

Yuma King project site

Corcel’s approach is centered on disciplined, data-driven exploration. The company’s 2025 work program includes its maiden 2,000-meter diamond drill program, IP surveys and hyperspectral mapping to test priority copper-gold skarn and porphyry targets around the Yuma King mine, Yuma King West and Three Musketeers zones. By validating and extending historical mineralization, Corcel aims to delineate a near-term resource base while unlocking the broader district-scale potential.

The company’s technical leadership team, with decades of discovery experience across the Americas, is supported by Inventa Capital, a proven incubator of successful resource ventures such as Vizsla Silver and Targa Exploration. This strategic partnership provides Corcel with corporate infrastructure, capital markets expertise and exploration discipline, giving it a competitive edge in executing its exploration plans efficiently and effectively.

Company Highlights

Flagship Yuma King Project (Arizona): District-scale, 3,200-hectare land package with 515 federal mining claims in the historic Ellsworth mining district.
High-grade Historical Production: 8,600 tons averaging 2.3 percent copper, 0.3 oz silver per ton, and 0.03 oz gold per ton from the past-producing Yuma mine.
Dual Mineralization System: Copper-gold skarn mineralization with potential for a buried copper-molybdenum-gold porphyry system.
Strong Recent Results: Rock samples grading up to 17.15 grams per ton gold and 11.6 percent copper, confirming widespread surface mineralization.
Advanced Drill-ready Targets: 1.6 km skarn corridor open along strike and down-dip; multiple untested anomalies from geophysics and soil sampling.
Experienced Leadership: Led by a technically strong management team with deep experience in discovery, development, and capital markets.
Strategic US Positioning: Located near infrastructure and in the same state as one of only three US copper smelters.

Key Project

Yuma King

The Yuma King copper-gold project covers a 3,200-hectare district-scale property in the historic Ellsworth mining district of west-central Arizona, approximately 150 km northwest of Phoenix. The property hosts the past-producing Yuma mine, where operations between 1940 and 1963 yielded high-grade copper and gold ore.

Yuma King property overview

Corcel has defined three primary target zones within the project: the Yuma King Mine zone, hosting near-surface and down-dip skarn mineralization open along a 1.6 km corridor; Yuma King West, characterized by high-grade gold-copper rock samples and coincident copper-gold-molybdenum soil anomalies; and the Three Musketeers area, marked by strong magnetic destruction and soil anomalies indicative of a potential upper porphyry environment.

Exploration Targets and Results

Skarn and Replacement Mineralization: Copper-gold skarn zones with oxide and sulfide mineralization remain open in multiple directions. Historical drilling intersected intervals such as 45.4 m grading 0.78 percent copper, 0.53 grams per ton (g/t) gold, and 6.3 g/t silver.

Drilling at Yuma King in 2006

Porphyry Potential: Geological and geochemical data indicate a buried copper-molybdenum-gold porphyry system, with prior holes intersecting up to 395 ft of 753 parts per million (ppm) copper and 184 ppm molybdenum. Magnetite destructive alteration was located in the Three Musketeers area and is associated with strong gold and copper in soils and rocks, indicating the potential upper levels of a porphyry system.

Surface Sampling: 2,263 soil and 303 rock chip samples have defined 1.2 km-long copper-gold-molybdenum anomalies, with rock assays up to 17.15 g/t gold and 11.6 percent copper, identifying multiple new high-priority zones.

Untested Targets: The Three Musketeers and Yuma King West zones host strong magnetic features and soil anomalies under shallow cover, indicating potential extensions of the mineralized system.

2025 Program: Phase 1 drilling (2,000 m) and 8.5 km of IP surveys are planned to test these targets, marking the first comprehensive, data-integrated exploration in the district in over 70 years

World Bank: Oil Glut to Drive Commodities Prices to Six Year Low

Global commodities prices are on track to fall to their lowest level in six years by 2026, as weaker demand, a widening oil surplus and policy uncertainty continue to weigh on markets, according to the World Bank.

In 2025, the oil glut is projected to expand 65 percent above its last peak in 2020 as electric and hybrid vehicles reduce fuel consumption and oil demand flattens in China, as per the organization’s latest Commodity Markets Outlook.

The World Bank sees global energy prices falling sharply as a result.

Brent crude is forecast to slide from an average of US$68 per barrel in 2025 to US$60 in 2026, marking the lowest level in five years. Overall, energy prices are seen dropping by 12 percent this year and an additional 10 percent next year.

Despite the declines, commodities prices remain elevated compared to pre-pandemic levels. The World Bank estimates 2025 prices will still average 23 percent higher than in 2019, and 2026 levels about 14 percent above pre-COVID benchmarks, reflecting structural shifts such as climate impact, supply chain realignment and new industrial demand.

Food markets are also showing signs of easing. Global food prices are forecast to fall in 2025 and 2026, aided by improved harvests and lower shipping costs. However, fertilizer costs are expected to surge this year before easing in 2026, driven by high input prices and trade restrictions that could strain farm profitability and threaten crop yields.

Precious metals, by contrast, are defying the broader trend.

Gold and silver prices have reached record highs in 2025, primarily buoyed by central bank purchases, investor demand for safe-haven assets and ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty.

The gold price is expected to rise 42 percent this year and another 5 percent in 2026, nearly doubling its 2015 to 2019 average. Meanwhile, silver is projected to increase 34 percent this year and 8 percent next year.

While the downturn in energy prices, as well as lower prices for commodities like wheat and rice, is providing some relief to inflation-hit economies, the World Bank warns the decline may be temporary.

“Commodity markets are helping to stabilize the global economy,” said Indermit Gill, the World Bank Group’s chief economist and senior vice president for development economics, in a Wednesday (October 29) release. “Falling energy prices have contributed to the decline in global consumer-price inflation. But this respite will not last. Governments should use it to get their fiscal house in order, make economies business-ready, and accelerate trade and investment.”

The report also notes that the commodities outlook remains vulnerable to shifting global conditions. Prolonged trade disputes, sluggish economic growth or an unexpected surge in OPEC+ oil supply could drag prices further down. Conversely, heightened geopolitical tensions, new sanctions or severe climate disruptions could drive them back up.

Beyond short-term price dynamics, the report’s ‘special focus’ section for this year examines whether renewed global interest in managing supply and demand through commodities pacts could stabilize markets.

Drawing on a century of experience with international commodities agreements (ICAs), the World Bank found that most efforts like this ultimately failed. In the 20th century, producer and consumer nations attempted to stabilize prices through mechanisms involving inventory controls, trade quotas and price-setting schemes for commodities.

While some early efforts achieved temporary price stability, most collapsed due to weak coordination and changing demand patterns. Even the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) — the longest-lasting such arrangement — has faced increasing challenges from new energy sources and shifting consumer behavior.

“OPEC’s longevity stands out among other ICAs,” the report states, noting that its survival has depended on its ability to adjust production quotas, expand alliances through OPEC+ and engage with consumer nations through dialogue.

Still, the World Bank cautions that OPEC faces growing headwinds from the global transition toward cleaner energy, which could usher in a period of stagnant or declining oil demand.

Anthony Davis exits Mavs game with ‘left lower leg soreness’

Dallas Mavericks big man Anthony Davis had to head back to the locker room and did not return to Wednesday night’s game against the Indiana Pacers.

The Mavericks said Davis is dealing with ‘left lower leg soreness.’

He was listed as probable on the Mavericks’ Tuesday injury report, with his injury described as ‘Bilateral Achilles; Tendinopathy.’

Davis was seen on the broadcast grabbing his lower left leg. The Mavericks initially said he was ‘questionable’ to return but he was ruled out a little over 30 minutes later.

Davis, infamously traded for Luka Doncic in February, is averaging 25 points and 11.8 rebounds per game this season. But Mavericks fans will now be holding their breath again, hoping for good news on this latest injury.

Anthony Davis injury update

Mavericks coach Jason Kidd reaffirmed the ‘left lower leg soreness’ diagnosis for Davis after his team’s 107-105 win over the Pacers. Kidd also said Davis tried to return but the team kept him out.

Trae Young suffers knee injury in Hawks’ game vs. Nets

Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young was knocked out of Wednesday night’s game against the Brooklyn Nets after injuring his knee.

The four-time All-Star was hurt in the first quarter when teammate Mouhamed Gueye fell into his right leg. Young grabbed at the leg immediately with both hands. He was seen on the broadcast conversing with head coach Quin Snyder.

Young played 17 more seconds before heading back to the locker room. He was ruled out for the game with what the Hawks called a ‘right knee sprain.’

The Hawks faced increased expectations this season but entered Wednesday’s game at 1-3. Not helping has been an injury report loaded with big names in the past week, including Jalen Johnson (ankle), 2024 top pick Zaccharie Risacher (ankle) and big offseason acquisition Kristaps Porzingis (flu). Those three were in the lineup Wednesday, though now attention turns to Young’s health.

Young, 27, entered Wednesday’s game averaging 20.8 points and 9.5 assists on the season.

Trae Young injury update

Hawks coach Quin Snyder told reporters after Atlanta’s 117-112 win that Young would be getting an MRI either Wednesday night or on Thursday. He also noted that Young did not injure his ACL.

Blue Jays start World Series game with back-to-back home runs

LOS ANGELES – Three pitches, two home runs and World Series history made by the Toronto Blue Jays in a stunning start to a pivotal Game 5.

Leadoff man du jour Davis Schneider hit Blake Snell’s first pitch into the left field pavilion at Dodger Stadium, and before he could snugly don Toronto’s iconic home run jacket, franchise player Vladimir Guerrero Jr. followed with a 394-foot shot in the same neighborhood. Toronto 2, Los Angeles 0 before Snell could even settle in.

It was the first time in World Series history that a team led off a game with back-to-back home runs. And for Guerrero, it was second in as many nights and eighth of the postseason.

Snell, the two-time Cy Young Award winner who posted a 0.86 ERA with just six hits given up in three playoff wins entering the World Series, opted to throw three fastballs out of the gate, and was punished for it.

Toronto kept up an aggressive approach that worked against Shohei Ohtani the night before, ambushing Snell with the two homers and three hits in their first four plate appearances.

The Blue Jays already pinned a loss on Snell in this World Series. He took a 2-2 tie into the bottom of the sixth in Game 1, but did not record an out and the Blue Jays went on to score nine runs in the inning en route to an 11-4 victory.

This time, they brought the pain from the jump.
