As the start of the NFL regular season draws closer, the Jacksonville Jaguars are offering more insight into how the team plans to deploy rookie Travis Hunter.Hunter, who was a two-way star at Jackson State and Colorado, was listed as the starting wide receiver and the backup cornerback on the Jaguars' first official depth chart.As the debate about whether Hunter will take a similar number of snaps on offense and defense at the professional football level continues, Los Angeles Rams wideout Davante Adams offered his take on the rookie's prospects.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMAdams believes Hunter could face injury concerns if his workload involves significant snaps in the long-term on the offensive and defensive sides of the ball."I dont even think its possible to do. Not at a high level. Its hard enough to go cover a punt and then be on one side," Adams said during a recent appearance on "The Pivot" podcast.JAGUARS' TRAVIS HUNTER HIGHEST-RATED ROOKIE IN 'MADDEN' IN OVER 10 YEARS"That's just a lot of mileage, man. Im not even concerned so much if he can do it over the course of a game or a season. Its more like, how long is his career going to be if hes playing that many snaps? All youre doing is doubling your risk of injury."Adams made it clear that he hopes Hunter can ultimately avoid any injury, but cautioned about what the Heisman winner will encounter playing defense against NFL players."I dont wish any of that on him. I hope he can play an injury-free season and go ball out. But this is the reality. Its already 100% injury guarantee. Once you get out there playing both sides, you gotta tackle Derrick Henry with that frame. Hes athletic as hell, but hes gotta do some ninja s---."Two-way NFL players have been a rarity. Chuck Bednarik was the league's last full-time two-way athlete. Bednarik was a linebacker and offensive lineman for the Philadelphia Eagles from 1949-62.Sammy Baugh and Don Hutson are also notable former two-way stars. Baugh was a quarterback, defensive back and punter. Huston spent his entire NFL career with the Green Bay Packers, playing receiver and safety. He later had a stint as a Packers assistant coach.Follow Fox News Digitals sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

The Italian government, under new legislation, would tighten controls on the supply of gender transition medical treatment for minors, according to a draft law.The law was passed by Italy's cabinet late on Monday but is still subject to approval from parliament.

Longtime progressive activist Katie Wilson will face off against incumbent Mayor Bruce Harrell in November's general election after securing the top two places in Tuesday's nonpartisan mayoral primary.Wilson secured around 46% of the vote to Harrell's 45%, according to reporting from FOX 13.Widely known for her role in helping establish and continuing to lead the left-wing Transit Riders Union, Wilson champions progressive positions such as minimum wage increases, better access to public transit and affordable housing. She has also pledged to "Trump-proof" the City of Seattle, and has been likened to New York City's Zohran Mamdani by political pundits.Harrell, who served on the Seattle City Council for more than a decade before being elected mayor in 2021, is considered the establishment candidate in the race.SEATTLE MAYORAL CANDIDATE VOWS TO TRUMP-PROOF THE CITY IF ELECTEDBoth candidates raked in far greater campaign war chests than the other seven candidates who ran in Tuesday's primary, according to Seattle Ethics and Elections records.Harrell, who received nearly 100 endorsements from current elected officials, narrowly beat out Wilson when it came to fundraising ahead of the primary, bringing in a little over $500,000, according to filings. Wilson, meanwhile, brought in about $475,000 in campaign contributions.Moving on to the general election, Wilson is hoping to prevent Harrell from becoming Seattle's first mayor to win re-election in two decades.THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY NEEDS GENERATIONAL CHANGE, FORMER WHITE HOUSE OFFICIAL SAYSMeanwhile, Wilson has criticized Harrell for being more focused on dismantling homeless encampments than boosting the availability of shelters, and accused him of being part of the political status quo."We need leadership that is going to listen to voters and govern in the interest of people in the city and not corporate backers," Wilson said, referring to Harrell, in a March interview with PBS. During the interview, Wilson cited Harrell's work on affordable housing, arguing he was "the face of the campaign to undermine" a proposition that would have boosted affordable housing development.But Harell has defended his record as mayor, touting to local news outlet My Northwest that his administration has "put over a billion dollars in affordable housing.""My re-election is supported by 100+ current and former elected officials, labor, as well as affordable housing, environmental, community, and transportation leaders," Harrell wrote on social media last week. "Im proud of the broad and diverse coalition weve built to keep Seattle moving forward."The upcoming general election that will see Wilson and Harrell face off head-to-head is slated for Tuesday, Nov. 4.

Meghan Markle is being dragged back into another legal battle with her estranged half-sister.In 2022, Samantha Markle sued the Duchess of Sussex for allegedly defaming her in multiple interviews, including a 2021 tell-all with Oprah Winfrey. The case was dismissed with prejudice in 2024, which means Samantha cannot file the claims again. The elder sibling appealed the dismissal, and an oral argument has been scheduled for Sept. 9 in Jacksonville, Florida, Fox News Digital has learned.Royal expert Ian Pelham Turner told Fox News Digital this family feud casts a dark cloud over the Sussexes, especially Harry, who is reportedly attempting to reconnect with his family.PRINCE WILLIAM'S ABSENCE AT KING CHARLES AND PRINCE HARRY'S 'PEACE SUMMIT' COULD BE A 'WARNING SHOT': EXPERT"More legal disputes between Meghan and Samantha could break the fragile links between Harry and Meghan trying to establish a way forward," Turner warned. "The royals are hyper-sensitive toward any legal issues in America, resulting in any more secrets coming out to the detriment of the royals in the U.K.""This could be misconstrued as a timely action by Samantha Markle as she sees her half-sister on the ropes regarding Netflix and a glimmer of hope to be reconnected with the royal family."British royals expert Hilary Fordwich told Fox News Digital that another high-profile dispute involving Meghan will likely make other senior royals worried. The royal family has stayed faithful to the late queens mantra never complain, never explain."There is nothing good about this for Meghan Markle," said Fordwich. "Her reputation is tarnished further by her own sister making such allegations. Whether true or not, it doesnt matter, as neither way does it reflect well."A spokesperson for the duchess, 44, told Fox News Digital they will not be commenting.In a statement sent to Fox News Digital, Samanthas lawyer, Peter Ticktin, said: "The District Court judge, an Obama appointee, dismissed the lawsuit brought by Samantha Markle against her sister Meghan Markle, finding that there was no case. This decision was wrong, and now, we are tasked with convincing a three-judge panel of the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals of how our case was solid."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER"Of course, we differ from the District Court judge, or we would have never brought the case in the first place," said Ticktin. "We are hoping and somewhat expecting that the panel of three judges on the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals will see the error by the lower court and reverse the dismissal."Doug Eldridge, a branding expert and the founder of Achilles PR, told Fox News Digital that such public disputes with family members will continue to overshadow Meghans efforts to boost her reputation. The "Suits" alum launched a lifestyle brand, As Ever, and her Netflix series, "With Love, Meghan," this year."Harry was very close to his mother and brother, while Meghan had seemingly been estranged from her father and half-siblings for years," said Eldridge. "When there is a public breakup of a beloved family, like Harry and the Windsors, it creates a polarizing vacuum. On top of that, when someone is seen as the negative variable (as Meghan was either credited or blamed, depending on your perspective), it intensifies that polarization to near-acerbic levels.""So far, Meghan has kept her family at arms length," he continued. "Sadly, changing that at this point would alter the entire narrative she worked to build and, with it, deepen the cracks in an already shaky brand foundation shes trying to fortify."After the couple made their exit from the U.K. in 2020, they aired their struggles with royal life. Harrys 2023 memoir "Spare," which shared embarrassing details about the House of Windsor, worsened his relationship with the royal family. Royal experts previously claimed to Fox News Digital that Harry and his older brother, Prince William, werent on speaking terms.LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSIn May, Harry told the BBC he wanted to reconcile with his family, but his father wouldnt speak to him. His father, King Charles III, was diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer in February 2024."I would love reconciliation with my family," said the 40-year-old. "Theres no point in continuing to fight anymore. I dont know how much longer my father has."The Mail on Sunday reported that Harrys aides had a private meeting on July 9 with the kings communications secretary in London. Representatives for Buckingham Palace and the Duke andDuchess of Sussex did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment at the time.But Meghans latest dispute with her estranged sister could potentially make the royal family wary of any future peace talks."As is common practice Samantha was permitted to amend her complaint against her half-sister when it was challenged by a motion to dismiss twice," Jonna Spilbor, a criminal defense and family law attorney, told Fox News Digital."Ultimately, the lawsuit failed and was dismissed with prejudice, meaning it was dead," Spilbor explained. "However, Samanthas legal team appealed that dismissal. It appears Samanthas team received some relief from the appellate court, which has set a hearing to allow Samantha to attempt to convince the court that the case should be revived."So, the reason Meghan is being dragged back to court on a case that was given a death sentence at the trial court level is that the appeals court is performing CPR. The case may die another day. But that wont be determined until after the hearing."WATCH: MEGHAN MARKLE MOVED ON FROM ROYAL FAMILY DRAMA, AUTHOR CLAIMSMeghan is not expected to appear at the hearing.Samantha, 60, claimed in her original filing that Meghan made defamatory statements during her interview with Winfrey when she said she "grew up as an only child," People magazine reported. Samantha argued that she and Meghan "were close during childhood" but drifted after Meghan started dating the British prince.According to the outlet, Samantha also claimed there were defamatory implications when Meghan said during that same interview that Samantha "changed her last name back to Markle" after she began dating Harry. Honeywell determined in a 2023 ruling that telling Oprah she "grew up as an only child" was a protected opinion."As a reasonable listener would understand it, [the] Defendant merely expresses an opinion about her childhood and her relationship with her half-siblings. Thus, the Court finds that Defendant's statement is not objectively verifiable or subject to empirical proof," District Judge Charlene Edwards Honeywell wrote.TheU.K.s Daily Mail recently reported that the Duke of Sussex had quietly extended an olive branch to the royals by offering to share his official schedule of engagements. According to the outlet, this is a bid to ease tensions between him and his father.Fox News Digital reached out to a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex for comment. The couples office declined to comment when reached byPeople magazine.But the chances of Meghan reconciling with her own family seem dim.The mother of two has repeatedly accused Samantha and their father, former Hollywood lighting director Thomas Markle, of selling stories to the British tabloids. The Duke and Duchess cited the unbearable intrusions of the U.K. press and a lack of support from their palace as their reasons for their exit."I said, 'I just need you to tell me and if you tell me the truth, we can help,' and he wasn't able to do that," Meghan recalled to Winfrey, 71, about confronting her father about speaking with paparazzi.At the time of the televised interview, which was viewed by nearly 50 million people globally, Meghan was expecting her second child."And that, for me, has really resonated, especially now as a mother," she said. "I look at Archie, I think about this child [on the way], and I genuinely can't imagine doing anything to intentionally cause pain to my child. I can't imagine it. So, it's hard for me to reconcile that."

Residents in a ritzy Boston, Massachusetts, neighborhood are complaining that city leadership isn't doing enough to control open drug use, with locals saying the situation has gotten "very scary."During a Boston City Council meeting in October 2024, Beacon Hill resident Katherine Kennedy said she hasn't seen this level of illegal drug use in Beacon Hill, according to Boston 25. According to Realtor.com, the average home price in Beacon Hill is $2.3 million."Prior to this year, Ive never seen the Boston Common, Cambridge Street or the Esplanade get this overrun with drug paraphernalia or folks in crisis," Kennedy said.Kennedy added, "As a mother of two small children, this is very scary."DEM REP CALLS OUT NYC'S ONGOING FAILURE TO TACKLE BRONX 'OPEN AIR DRUG MARKET' CRISISThe mother of two now carries a sharps container, meant for needles, in her diaper bag.A 2024 report compiled by the Boston Public Health Commission reported that there was a 47.1% increase in drug usage mortality rates between 2020-2022 compared to 2017-2019 in the Beacon Hill, Back Bay, North end and West End communities, which are near each other. Similarly, data compiled by the Boston Police Department indicates that there was an 8% increase in overall theft incidents in 2025 compared to the five-year average in the area, including Beacon Hill.In 2022, Democratic Boston Mayor Michelle Wu helped launch a needle exchange program, including the distribution of free pipes that can be used to smoke crack or methamphetamine in a "harm reduction" strategy."Every step that we take has to also be about immediately saving lives," Wu said at the time. "Wehave seen a big drop and data proven success with the parts of this program, the goals of this program, which are to ensure there is a stop to communicable diseases that are preventable."PASTOR COREY BROOKS: I'M BUILDING HOPE ON CHICAGO'S NOTORIOUS SOUTH SIDEFor Kennedy, who's a resident of Beacon Hill, the program has led to a dramatic increase in needles seen on her kids' walk to school."I pass discarded needles as I walk my 5-year-old to her public school every day," Kennedy said, according to the Boston Herald. "Having to keep needles away from my kids as I walk them to preschool is unacceptable.""Boston and the surrounding region is not doing enough to actually disrupt the cycle of addiction that has led to this crisis," she added.Robert Charles, former assistant secretary at the U.S. State Department's Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs, who's running for governor in Maine, told Fox News Digital that Americans don't fully understand the downstream impact of illegal drugs."It's a sequence of events. You get dramatic increases in the drug presence, which is a testing of law enforcement and political leadership. If the political leadership and law enforcement either don't have the resources or don't have the political will, you gradually see an increase in the drug trafficking itself and, of course, in overdoses," Charles said. "The burglaries go up, the robberies go up, the assaults go up. The domestic abuse goes up. Something like 80% of all domestic abuse is tied to polydrug use."

Tarantula mating season is here and if you're in the Southwest, you might see hordes of these fist-sized spiders marching across the landscape.From late summer through fall, male tarantulas emerge from their burrows on a singular mission: to find a female and mate before they die, experts say."These males ... theyve been alive for five to eight years," Cara Shillington, a biology professor who studies tarantulas at Eastern Michigan University, told Fox News Digital.

At the end of the season, they will die."This means that if you see a tarantula out and about between August and October, youre witnessing its grand finale the final act in a long, hidden life underground."Tarantulas are less active during the cooler months, spending this time dormant in their burrows," Paul Biggs, a board-certified entomologist and technical services manager at Orkin, told Fox News Digital."Because of the harsh environmental conditions, they take shelter and conserve energy during this time," added Biggs, who is based in Riverside, California.Tarantulas are commonly found across the Southern and Southwestern U.S., including in these states and areas:In some areas, their movements are so noticeable that the Colorado Parks and Wildlife website refers to it as "a migration."Southeastern Colorado even hosts an annual Tarantula Festival in the town of La Junta, Shillington noted.Tarantulas don't just live on forest floors. The Colorado species also thrives in trees and prairie grasslands, said Shillington.TICKS SPREAD TO NEW REGIONS ACROSS AMERICA, BRINGING DANGEROUS DISEASES AND NEED FOR VIGILANCE"In Colorado, they are in very distinct burrows. In Missouri, you find them more frequently under rocks," she said.The spiders' ability to burrow depends on the soil, the expert noted. For example, hard clay makes digging tough, so some may opt for hiding under natural cover.First, dont panic.

"I dont know when exactly they first come out or what prompts them. I have no idea how far they are walking to find females."For more Lifestyle articles, visitfoxnews.com/lifestyleShe and her team are working to track activity across tarantula territory to better understand how the spider's behavior changes over time.
