MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — The Miami Dolphins were ready to deal veteran defensive tackle Calais Campbell to the Baltimore Ravens ahead of the Nov. 5 trade deadline until Mike McDaniel stepped in. “I may or may not have thrown an adult temper tantrum,” Miami's coach said, confirming the news first reported by NFL Network Sunday morning. The Dolphins were 2-6 and had lost three straight at that point. They'd played four uninspired games without their starting quarterback, going 1-3 after Tua Tagovailoa went on injured reserve on Sept. 17 with a concussion. Campbell would have had a chance to rejoin the contending Ravens, and Miami would have received a 2026 fifth-round pick in return, NFL Network reported. McDaniel argued that Campbell was too valuable to lose. “I was happy that they brought me into the conversations," Campbell said after Miami's 34-15 win over the New England Patriots . “They didn't have to say anything to me at all. We had a really good conversation about what we think about this team, where we are. We felt like we had a good shot to get back into the fight.” Added McDaniel: “I think it wasn’t like it was (GM) Chris (Grier) versus me. ... That’s the tricky thing about Chris’ job is he has to look long-term and short-term at the same time, what’s the best for the organization.” Campbell, a 17-year veteran, signed with the Dolphins after playing for Atlanta last season. Players and coaches have praised the 38-year-old's contributions on the field and in the locker room. “There’s no one’s game I’ve come to respect more than Calais up front on the D-line,” defensive tackle Zach Sieler said, “being with him this year and just the energy, the attitude and the mindset he brings every week. It can’t be matched, and that’s the reason why he is who he is today and doing what he’s doing at 17 years.” Campbell leads the team with four sacks. With back-to-back sacks in Weeks 10 and 11, he became the eighth player 38 or older to record sacks in consecutive games since the 1970 merger. He also has nine tackles for loss, giving him at least five tackles for loss in 15 of his 17 seasons. He played for Baltimore from 2020-2022, totaling 11 sacks and 113 tackles. “I think he means a great deal to not only the defensive line room, but the entire defense as well as the entire team,” McDaniel said earlier this week. “It’s rare for a guy to get here when he did, and then be voted, with such conviction, captain. I think the way that he operates to be a pro, I think has had a substantial impact on a lot of players that hadn’t been fortunate enough to be around someone with sustained success like he’s had.” The Dolphins have won three straight games since the deadline. Miami's defense held the Patriots scoreless until the fourth quarter on Sunday. Campbell broke down the team's pregame huddle as he has done before most games this season. He was also seen coaching up rookie linebacker Chop Robinson, who is always seeking pointers from the six-time Pro Bowler. “My job is to speak on behalf of what’s the best thing for the 2024 Dolphins,” McDaniel said. “I’m just fortunate to work in an organization where myself and the GM can be transparent and work together. “And he didn’t want to see any more adult temper tantrums.” AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/NFL

Tech Titans' Answer to Crime: Turning Their Homes into Military-Grade Bunkers
Coleen Rooney reveals remark Trump made about her at White House meetingAAP FACTCHECK – Doctored videos of US President elect Donald Trump promising people can make millions if they invest in his ‘Golden Eagles’ are circulating online. The various videos, including some taken from his 2024 election victory speech, include audio altered using artificial intelligence (AI). Manipulated videos also show Mr Trump talking about the Golden Eagles in television interviews, as well as Elon Musk supposedly endorsing the scheme and urging “patriots” to invest. In one of the posts , Mr Trump addresses an audience in front of a lectern that reads ‘House Republicans 119th Congress’. “Patriots, I am calling on each and every one of you to take advantage of this once in a lifetime opportunity,” he is heard saying. “In this crucial moment, I am urging you to invest in the Trump Golden Eagles...With the purchase of just 100 Trump Golden Eagles today, you will be able to exchange them for millions of dollars come January.” A reverse image search reveals the manipulated video is taken from a recording of Mr Trump at the Republicans Congress meeting in November 2024 . In the original clip, he does not mention Golden Eagles. A link in the caption in the altered video directs users to a site where you can supposedly buy Golden “Patriot Eagles”. At the time of writing, links to purchase the item did not appear to work. Small print at the bottom of the website says the website is not affiliated with Mr Trump or the Trump campaign, and that the product is just a collectable item and does not have any monetary value. AAP FactCheck contacted the website creators for comment but did not get a reply. The golden eagle is a symbol associated with Mr Trump and was the image of his official 2021 members card given to supporters who donated to the campaign. Dr Andrew Lenson , an AI and computer science expert at Te Herenga Waka – Victoria University of Wellington, told AAP FactCheck the Republicans Congress meeting video is “clearly fake”. “The biggest ‘tell’ is at 0:09, where his mouth suddenly moves from a neutral expression into a deep grin – clearly unrealistic,” he said. The low quality of another video is common in manipulated videos as a way of hiding the visual giveaways associated with deepfakes. However, you can make out Mr Trump’s teeth, which disappear and reappear during the video – a sign of AI manipulation. The actual video can be found on Mr Trump’s website and features him announcing a plan to wage war on Mexican drug cartels in December 2023 . Again, there is no mention of the Golden Eagles. Another manipulated post on X in which Mr Trump supposedly spruiks the Golden Eagles is from his 2024 victory speech . The edited clip starts with the original lines from the speech, but at 25 seconds it substitutes a doctored section in which he says the value of the Golden Eagles has risen since his election win. “Everyone who invested in Trump Golden Eagles will soon be able to exchange them for real cash,” the audio says. Another post appears to show Mr Trump endorsing the eagles on Fox News with host Sean Hannity. But this is another manipulated video. The original video of Mr Trump speaking dates from January 2021 when he was responding to the US Capitol riots.
