Baltimore Ravens rookie cornerback Bilhal Kone suffered a gnarly-looking knee injury during the first quarter of Thursday night’s preseason opener against the Indianapolis Colts.

Late in the first quarter, Bilhal Kone was defending against Ashton Dulin in the Ravens’ end zone as a pass fell incomplete. Kone fell to the ground and grabbed at his left leg, and a trainer quickly rushed onto the field.

Be warned that the injury is awfully gruesome-looking, and some may be disturbed by the content below:


Unfortunately, Bilhal Kone and the Ravens quickly received the worst-case scenario. Soon after the injury, NFL insider Jordan Schultz reported that Kone suffered ACL and MCL tears and would miss his entire rookie year.

 

The 23-year-old was drafted in the sixth round (178th overall) by the Ravens following a two-year stint at Western Michigan. In his final year of college football, Kone recorded one interception, nine pass breakups and two fumble recoveries.

The Ravens entered 2025 with one of the deepest secondaries in the league, led by Kyle Hamilton, Marlon Humphrey, Nate Wiggins and Malaki Starks. With Kone missing his entire rookie year, however, the Ravens will have to move quickly to find a suitable replacement.

Brittney Griner Finally Breaks Her Silence Over Alleged Caitlin Clark Comments That The WNBA Refused To Investigate

WNBA star Brittney Griner was at the center of a new debate over what she allegedly said in a game against basketball phenom Caitlin Clark.

The Atlanta Dream center found herself at the center of social media controversy last month when some fans thought she disparaged Indiana Fever star guard Caitlin Clark upon fouling out.

The game’s broadcast focused on an upset Griner saying something as she returned to the Dream bench after fouling out of the game. While there’s no audio of this moment, some who tried to read Griner’s lips thought she called Clark a “trash f–king white girl.”

However, there’s no proof of Griner saying those actual words since others thought she stated something else.

It took weeks for someone to finally get a quote from her, and she provided much of nothing.

Brittney Griner was asked about this moment before her team’s June 15 game against the Washington Mystics and said, “I remember fouling out, being mad. I remember fouling out on, I believe it was [Natasha] Howard driving to the basket. They said I put my hand in.”

Moments before the conclusion of the Indiana Fever’s 81-76 victory over the Dream at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta weeks ago, cameras seemingly caught Atlanta Dream star center Brittney Griner labeling Caitlin Clark “trash” before calling her a “f***ing white girl” in frustration over a foul on Natasha Howard.

The clip of Griner speaking on the bench, lacking context, spread on social media and went viral.

Griner, who won a gold medal for Team USA at the Summer Olympics in Paris in 2024, essentially got aw@y with whatever came out of her mouth because the league basically ignored the controversy.

This incident is not the only time Griner vocalized her frustrations this season. Following another game, she stormed off mid-interview, yelling at the referees to “be f—ing better.
