In Lake Bluff, Castillo’s new eight-room house was built in 1986 and has 3-1/2 bathrooms, a vaulted family room with a gas fireplace, a first-floor primary bedroom suite with a large walk-in closet, a brand-new first-floor laundry room and a kitchen with an island and an oversized breakfast bar. The house, which also has a mudroom with a dog shower, a deep pour unfinished basement and a large deck, sits on a 0.47-acre lot.
Having a post-Olympic tour to lead also helped. Biles never considered bailing on it. If anything, she needed the tour — which wrapped up a 32-city sprint Sunday in Boston — to help her and fellow Olympic teammates Jordan Chiles, MyKayla Skinner, Jade Carey and Grace McCallum (as well as world champions Chellsie Memmel and Morgan Hurd, among others) step out of the hyper-pressurized bubble of elite gymnastics.
“He’s a game changer,” Nagy said. “He’s special now. He’s all over the place. He’s smart. He can beat you with different moves, speed to power, can bull rush you. He’ll be all over the place, different spots on the D-line. And he goes after the football. When he tackles, he tackles the football. When you’re in the pocket, you better have ball security because he’s going after that football.”
“Behind the bench before the game starts, I’ll just step back, take it all in,” King said before the game. “Crow (assistant coach Marc Crawford) has been around this game a long time. He’s probably coached against me too. So he’s huge support and I told him I’m going to lean on you a lot and we’re going to work well together.

The Chiefs, whose high-flying offense turned heads on the way to three straight AFC title games, went three-and-out on their first two drives of the second half. The Packers also went three-and-out to start the second half, then watched as Love got sacked by Tyrann Mathieu on third down to force a punt on their next possession.
“Obviously this isn’t our first foray into free agency with Carlos,” Hahn said. “We had a similar situations at least in terms of his rights last offseason, when we had an interest in bringing him back and (were) able to work it out then as well. We’ll see how the market unfolds. He’s coming from a much better position, which we all benefited from over the course of the ‘21 season.

“I’ve sat up top and watched the games, and it’s easy to pick a game apart up there,” he said. “But when you’re on the bench, talking with these guys, you’ll get a feel for what they’re thinking and see the struggles, if there are any struggles tonight.”
“Right now, we’re 1-9-2. You find out if you’re a playoff team in April, and let’s be totally honest, the math is not in favor right now to get to that point. But no season is ever lost, because you’re always going to be able to learn something, you’re always going to be able to continue your evaluation process.”
