PFF's preseason CFL All-Star team has Flo Orimolade '17 on the first team. From the story (LINK):
EDGE: FOLARIN ORIMOLADE, TORONTO ARGONAUTS
Second Team: Pete Robertson, Saskatchewan RoughridersThe best pass rusher in the CFL last season earns a spot on this team. His 69 total pressures in 2022 were the most in the league, and his pass-rush win rate topped the charts too. He’s no slouch in the run game either and should challenge for the most defensive stops this season.

Mobile robotics is also being used to improve safety in contact sports, such as American football and rugby. Concussions and other head injuries are a significant concern in these sports, and researchers are exploring ways to use mobile robotics to reduce the risk of injury. One such innovation is the Mobile Virtual Player (MVP), a robotic tackling dummy developed by researchers at Dartmouth College. The MVP is designed to mimic the movements of a human player, allowing athletes to practice tackling and other contact drills without the risk of injury to themselves or their teammates. By reducing the number of full-contact practices, teams can potentially reduce the risk of concussions and other injuries.

They are only about two hours apart but as Mrs. BGA and I found out some years ago and were reminded yesterday, Zion and Bryce Canyon National Parks are wildly different. Here's a photo I shot yesterday at Zion:
