Elon Musk’s X has won a tentative dismissal of a gender discrimination lawsuit filed by two former Twitter Inc. employees. The plaintiffs allege that the company targeted female employees when it began mass layoffs at the company after Musk bought the company in 2022. In his ruling on Monday, U.S. District Judge John Tigar noted that it’s not clear whether the plaintiffs were fired during Musk’s mass layoffs at Twitter or if they left the company for other reasons. The judge also noted that even if they were included in Musk’s mass layoffs, they haven’t actually alleged that their gender…

Even if some players perform well over the summer, the congestion on various rosters can negate their efforts. That said, just because a player isn’t selected to one of the 32-man opening rosters doesn’t mean there isn’t a place for him somewhere in the NFL. Tuesday’s deadline will be marked by players being waived or released, but it will provide a way to continue roster construction as we approach Week 1. With that in…
