Former NFL running back Alex Collins, who played five seasons for the Seattle Seahawks and Baltimore Ravens after a terrific college career at Arkansas, has died. He was 28. The Seahawks released a statement from Collins' family that said he died Monday morning. The Ravens, the NFL and Arkansas also announced Collins' death but did not provide a cause. Collins was part of a famous fourth-and-25 conversion for Arkansas in a win over Mississippi in 2015. He rushed for 973 yards for Baltimore in 2017.

A federal judge has sentenced a Texas woman to 30 years in prison for helping to dispose of the body of a U.S. soldier. Cecily Aguilar is the only suspect arrested in the death of Vanessa Guillén, who was killed at Fort Cavazos near Killeen, Texas. The 2020 killing led to changes in how women in the military can report sexual abuse. Aguilar pleaded guilty in November to one count of accessory to murder after the fact and three counts of making a false statement. Federal and state officials say Aguilar aided her 20-year-old boyfriend Army Spc. Aaron Robinson in dismembering and disposing of Guillén’s body near the base.

Prosecutors say they'll use testimony from FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried's “trusted inner circle” of former executives at his collapsed cryptocurrency empire against him at an October trial. Prosecutors make the assertion Monday in papers filed in Manhattan federal court. The 31-year-old California man who promoted himself as a crypto visionary before his businesses entered bankruptcy proceedings last fall is beginning his first full week in a U.S. jail after a judge said he appeared to break the law by trying to tamper with witnesses likely to testify against him. He has pleaded not guilty to charges that he diverted investor money illegally.
