But today, at the Google for Games Developer Summit, it feels like Stadia might be moving in a promising direction — one that gives both gamers and game developers a reason to pay attention.

Defensive end Randy Gregory intends to sign a contract with the Denver Broncos, not the Dallas Cowboys, according to Yahoo Sports’ Charles Robinson. It was reported earlier Tuesday that Gregory was signing a five-year, $70 million extension with the Cowboys, but that deal fell apart when the Cowboys included language in the contract that Gregory didn’t like.

President Biden’s approval rating for his handling of Russia and Ukraine has risen 5 percentage points since the start of the war in Eastern Europe more than two weeks ago, according to a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll — including a 12-point gain among self-described independent voters.
