Adam Schefter just confirmed it — AJ Brown is LIKELY heading to the New England Patriots after June 1st, and the Philadelphia Eagles are drafting this week in Pittsburgh as if he's ALREADY GONE. On Episode 505 of The Weekend Rewind, Kevin L. Warren, D-Dubbz, The D.A., Ryan DeSouza, and The Angry1 break down every major story from the weekend across the NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, PGA Golf, and FIFA World Cup 2026.

The NBA Playoffs delivered INSTANT drama — the Orlando Magic stunned the No. 1 seed Detroit Pistons in a wire-to-wire Game 1 upset. Victor Wembanyama dropped 35 points in his playoff debut — a Spurs franchise record. The Celtics tied an NBA record with 29 threes against a Joel Embiid-less Philly team (he's out with appendix surgery). Kevin Durant got hurt in PRACTICE. Coach Emay's playcalling is getting destroyed. And the Knicks, Cavs, and OKC are rolling.

On the NFL side — Draft Week is HERE. Pittsburgh. April 23-25. Fernando Mendoza is the near-consensus #1 pick, the Giants shipped Dexter Lawrence to Cincinnati for the 10th overall pick, and the AJ Brown saga is far from over.

The crew also goes deep on FIFA World Cup 2026 — NJ Transit reportedly raising fares by 775% to MetLife Stadium, the controversial tailgating ban, the natural grass mandate for all NFL host venues, and FIFA's "Clean Stadium" branding policy that strips every sponsor off every building. Then: LIV Golf is running out of money and looking for new investors — is a PGA Tour merger finally inevitable?

In the "Dear James" mailbag, the crew answers a passionate letter from a fan about Women's Football League uniform standards.

⭐ HIGHLIGHTED CHAPTER:

🏀 01:11:51 — WEMBANYAMA'S PLAYOFF DEBUT: 35 POINTS & A FRANCHISE RECORD

Victor Wembanyama's first NBA playoff game shook the basketball world. 35 points. A San Antonio Spurs franchise record for a playoff debut. The entire basketball universe is watching. Kevin and Ryan DeSouza break down what Wemby showed, what it means for the Spurs' title window, and whether Portland has any answer for the most unique player in the game.

🎙️ Sports Chasers Podcast | Episode 502 | The Chasers Dugout Report

Powered by Sports Chasers Media Group

GARRETT ANDERSON REMEMBERED | DODGERS SWEEP THE METS' BILLION DOLLAR SERIES | TROUT'S BRONX TAKEOVER | MASON MILLER'S HISTORIC DOMINANCE | FULL MLB WEEK BREAKDOWN

Host & Moderator Kevin L. Warren is joined by Resident MLB Insider Alvin Clawson, D-Dubbz, and The D.A. for a full Chasers Dugout Report covering the biggest stories in baseball as of April 18, 2026.

The crew opens with a tribute to Angels legend Garrett Anderson, who passed at 53 — a 2002 World Series cornerstone and the franchise's all-time offensive leader. They break down the Dodgers-Mets "billion-dollar series," where LA swept with authority behind Ohtani's 10-strikeout performance, while the Mets slid to 7–13 amid injuries including Soto, defensive breakdowns, and pointed criticism of GM David Stearns' roster construction — with the panel debating how much blame falls on manager Mendoza vs. the front office. Mike Trout's remarkable resurgence takes center stage: five homers in four days at Yankee Stadium — the most by any visiting player there in MLB history — while leading all of baseball in runs scored. The panel praises closer Mason Miller's historically dominant stretch of 30+ consecutive scoreless innings. Additional topics include Tatis Jr.'s all-around impact, the return of small ball (Rays, Brewers, Cardinals), how lineup analytics are reshaping the game, the Brewers' injury crisis, Blue Jays concerns, the new record-setting rookie extension era (Konnor Griffin, Kevin McGonigle), and City Connect uniform hot takes.

⭐ HIGHLIGHTED CHAPTER

━━━━━━━━━━

🕊️ 03:16 — REMEMBERING GARRETT ANDERSON

The crew pauses the baseball conversation to properly honor former Angels great Garrett Anderson, who passed away at 53. A cornerstone of Anaheim's 2002 World Series championship and the franchise's all-time leader in hits, RBIs, and games played, Anderson's quiet consistency made him one of the most underappreciated stars of his era. The panel shares memories, puts his career in full context, and gives the tribute he deserves.
