49ers bring back Deebo Samuel to fill void left by Ricky Pearsall's knee injury: report

The San Francisco 49ers’ receiving corps took an early training camp hit as Ricky Pearsall’s knee injury became a growing concern.

That uncertainty led San Francisco back to a familiar name. Former All-Pro wide receiver Deebo Samuel agreed Thursday to return to the 49ers on a one-year deal worth up to $7 million, ESPN reported.

Samuel's NFL career started in the Bay Area after the 49ers spent a second round draft pick on the South Carolina standout in 2019.

Samuel went on to spend the first six years of his NFL run with the Niners and helped the team reach the Super Bowl twice. He earned All-Pro honors in 2021 when he had 1,770 yards from scrimmage and 14 touchdowns.

Samuel was traded to Washington in 2025 for a fifth-round draft pick and had 72 catches for 727 yards and five touchdowns for the Commanders last season.

He became a free agent in March and now will join the Niners to provide reinforcement with Pearsall out.

Mystery stranger vanishes after family says frantic warning saved their lives during devastating house fire

A mysterious stranger is being hailed as a hero after waking a sleeping Las Vegas family, helping them escape a predawn house fire and then disappearing before anyone could learn his name.

The family is now searching for the man they say pounded on their front door, screamed "Fire!" and even grabbed a garden hose to battle the flames before quietly leaving, hoping to thank the person they believe saved not only their lives, but their neighbors' lives as well.

The fire broke out shortly before 5 a.m. on July 5 at the family's home in the Las Vegas Valley

Home surveillance video shared with Fox News Digital shows flames engulfing the backyard as the fire spread.

BENNY JOHNSON RECALLS HOW CHARLIE KIRK HELPED HIS FAMILY AFTER ARSON DESTROYED THEIR DC HOME

Speaking with Fox News Digital, homeowner Danna Shabtai said she had gone to bed after asking children across the street to stop setting off fireworks near her home on the night of July 4. Hours later, at 4:51 a.m., she woke to someone frantically ringing the doorbell and pounding on the front door.

"My dog started barking, so I woke up and I stumbled to the door," Shabtai said. "I opened the door and the gentleman was yelling, 'Fire! Fire!'"

"He pointed toward the back of the house, and I turned around and I could see the French doors to the backyard. I just saw orange — like a wall of orange."

After realizing the fire was far more serious than she initially thought, Shabtai said her sister grabbed the family's garden hose and rushed outside to fight the flames while she scooped up her 14-month-old son and ran next door to wake her neighbors.

"I started banging on their windows and their door trying to make noise, like, 'Wake up! Wake up!'" Shabtai said.

She said two women joined her in pounding on the neighbors' door until everyone inside made it out safely.

Meanwhile, the stranger grabbed a hose from the neighboring home and tried to keep the flames from spreading.

"He went to those neighbors' house and grabbed their hose from the front yard, and he was trying to put out their fire," Shabtai said. "So not only did he wake us up, he was trying to put out the fire with my sister."

Shabtai believes the man's actions prevented an even greater tragedy.

"If he wasn't driving by at that time, I don't know. It would have been a lot worse before we would have even noticed or woken up that there was a fire," she said.

The family has since taken to social media in hopes of identifying the mystery man so they can thank him in person.

"You're an angel. You saved our lives, and I'm really thankful for everything that you did," Shabtai previously told Fox 5 Las Vegas. "You didn't have to stop. You could have driven by and said, probably someone already called it in. But no, you took the time, and you woke us up, and you're a hero."

Speaking directly to the mystery man, Shabtai thanked him for stopping when others may have driven by.

"You saved probably two households and a bunch of pets because it would have been way too far gone before we would have realized," she said. "You saved our lives. You're a hero."

Shabtai said she believes the fire began after children across the street continued setting off fireworks despite being asked to stop.

She said she heard debris landing on a neighbor's gazebo and believes she saw a glowing ember drift over a roof toward the neighboring property before everyone went to bed. She believes the ember may have smoldered for hours before igniting the fire, though officials have not determined an official cause.

In a Facebook post after the fire, Shabtai credited the unidentified passerby with saving multiple families and expressed frustration over what she believes caused the blaze.

"This is why you leave fireworks to the professionals," she wrote. "This guy who just happened to drive by saved our lives and our neighbors' lives. Next year I'll be standing outside with my garden hose and hosing down any feral kids lighting up fireworks in my neighborhood."

She later shared a video of the aftermath, writing that while her family was fortunate to remain in its home, others were not.

"Aftermath of fire. Neighbors are displaced now because of fireworks. Luckily we don't have to leave," she wrote.

Fox News Digital reached out to the North Las Vegas Fire Department for additional information about the cause of the fire but did not immediately receive a response.

Spain deploys military after thousands of migrants overwhelm border enclave, at least 9 dead

Spain is deploying its military to the North African enclave of Ceuta after thousands of migrants overwhelmed the territory's border with Morocco, prompting a major security response as officials confirmed at least nine people died during the crossings.

The Spanish government said the Armed Forces will support the Civil Guard in restoring order after local officials warned the city could no longer handle the influx. Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez and Interior Minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska are expected to visit Ceuta as Madrid scrambles to contain the crisis.

The surge marks one of the largest migrant waves to hit Ceuta since 2021, when more than 8,000 people entered the Spanish territory over two days, triggering a diplomatic dispute between Spain and Morocco.

"The situation is absolute chaos," Rachid Sbihi, who heads an association representing Spain's Civil Guard officers in Ceuta, told The Associated Press. "It's not possible to give precise numbers, but there are thousands of migrants crossing."

WHITE HOUSE BLASTS SPANISH GOVERNMENT AS THOUSANDS OF MIGRANTS SURGE FROM MOROCCO, EMERGENCY REQUEST DENIED

Spain's government delegation in Ceuta said at least nine people died Thursday, though officials did not immediately explain the circumstances. According to the AP, bodies were seen floating in the water as rescue and security operations continued.

Video from the area showed large groups of migrants entering Ceuta through the Tarajal border area, with many arriving by swimming around coastal barriers separating Morocco from Spanish territory. Most appeared to be young men, though families with women and children were also among those crossing.

OVERCROWDED MIGRANT VESSEL WITH 240 PEOPLE ON BOARD INTERCEPTED NEAR TURKS AND CAICOS

Spanish authorities said Morocco is cooperating with efforts to regain control of the border. Spain's Interior Ministry said Moroccan police have intercepted numerous migrants attempting to cross and that both governments are working to return those who entered the territory illegally as quickly as possible.

Authorities have not identified a single cause for the sudden surge, though Ceuta officials have pointed to a recent Spanish Supreme Court ruling that limits the immediate return of migrants who arrive by sea without due process. Some migration advocates, however, questioned whether the ruling alone could explain the dramatic increase, arguing many migrants would likely have been unaware of the decision.

The crisis has reverberated beyond Spain. Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni threatened to suspend Italy's participation in the Schengen open-border agreement with Spain, saying the move would be necessary "to defend our borders and ensure the safety of our citizens."

EU ADMITS IT ‘DIDN’T HAVE CONTROL’ ON MIGRATION AS BLOC RUSHES CRACKDOWN AHEAD OF NEW RULES

Ceuta, a small Spanish territory on Morocco's Mediterranean coast, has long been one of Europe's most active migration flashpoints. 

Migrants from across Africa regularly attempt to reach the enclave by swimming from Morocco or scaling the heavily fortified border fence in hopes of gaining entry into the European Union.

Spain's Interior Ministry said nearly 3,000 migrants had entered Ceuta by land or sea this year through mid-July, before this week's crossings dramatically increased those figures.

Fox News Digital has reached out to Spain's Embassy in Washington, the Department of Homeland Security, the Center for Immigration Studies and the Migration Policy Institute for comment.

Rockets' Tari Eason says ex-girlfriend ruined $92K wardrobe with bleach, threatened to kill him in filing

Houston Rockets forward Tari Eason has filed for a domestic violence restraining order against his ex-girlfriend, 32-year-old Marilyn Maritza Melo Rodriguez, alleging she physically assaulted him, destroyed roughly $92,000 worth of his clothing and threatened to kill him.

According to court documents obtained (via TMZ), Eason says he drove Rodriguez home at her mother's request. After arriving, the two got into an argument, during which Eason alleges Rodriguez punched him in the face with a closed fist.

According to the filing, Rodriguez didn't leave the dispute behind. Eason alleges she went to his Airbnb residence and poured liquid bleach over his prized designer garments, causing roughly $92,000 in damage.

BRONCOS STAR JONATHAN COOPER ARRESTED ON DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CHARGES

The filing also describes an alleged phone call from one of Rodriguez's associates. According to Eason, the caller warned that Rodriguez would "break both of my legs" and "kill me."

Eason wrote that the statements left him fearing for his safety.

The hooper is asking a judge to order Rodriguez to stay away from him, his home, personal vehicle, workplace and any California arena where the Rockets are scheduled to play.

Eason, the No. 17 overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft, is entering his fifth NBA season after helping Houston emerge as one of the Western Conference's up-and-coming teams.

The 25-year-old has averaged 10.4 points and 6.3 rebounds over his career.

The allegations outlined in the restraining order petition have not been proven in court.

Ex-CBS reporter claims questioning Fauci got her 'pulled off air' during COVID pandemic

Former CBS News journalist Brittney Hopper claimed Thursday that she got into trouble after questioning Dr. Anthony Fauci, former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) director, during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Hopper appeared on News24 in Australia to discuss Fauci's decision to invoke his Fifth Amendment right more than 100 times during his congressional hearing Wednesday, refusing to answer any questions.

Before reacting to Fauci's hearing, the independent journalist, who previously worked for CBS News Los Angeles until 2022, gave her own history reporting on Fauci and how he was deified by the mainstream media.

TOP 5 MOMENTS FROM FAUCI'S HEARING: PAUL BOOTS LAWYER, MORENO ERUPTS AS CONTEMPT VOTE LOOMS

"I have so much to say because this was during the time when I was on CBS News. I was reporting extensively on COVID," Hopper said. "I was out there on the front lines. And I remember after a couple of years of dealing with hearing this man and interviewing this man and having to wear masks and having our kids out of school for years, I remember questioning what he was doing. And I got in trouble and pulled off air for a couple of days because I started questioning him.

"You weren't supposed to question the agenda and the narrative at that point. And I apologized, and I went back on air covering what I was supposed to do as I've mentioned before on here. I was their puppet on mainstream media for so many years. Hopefully, more and more people are waking up to, you know, really, the lack of journalistic integrity that we're seeing."

ANTHONY FAUCI'S PRIVATE DIARY AND EMAILS SHOW HE KNEW LOCKDOWNS FAILED AND PUSHED MASKS WITHOUT EVIDENCE

Hopper said she was not shocked by Fauci's response during his hearing but hoped that the "insanity" of him refusing to answer questions opens people's eyes to his lack of knowledge during the pandemic.

"I hope that this is somewhat of a wake-up call for news organizations around the world," Hopper said. "The six feet apart thing that he made up, wearing masks outside with not a single soul around us, you know, there were so many questions that were left unanswered and … let me give him the benefit of the doubt. 

"That first year, many of us — we had no idea what was going on, but then when we started to learn more and more and started to really use journalistic integrity, which maybe that’s just been thrown out the window … news agencies jumped on the bandwagon with him and just feared so many Americans."

FAUCI HAUNTED BY 2022 'NOTHING TO HIDE' VOW AFTER INVOKING THE FIFTH AMENDMENT 111 TIMES

When reached by Fox News Digital, CBS News clarified that Hopper had left the network prior to editor-in-chief Bari Weiss taking over in 2025.

In addition to facing criticism from GOP lawmakers over his hearing performance, Fauci faced renewed scrutiny over excerpts from his private diary, which revealed comments that contradicted his public statements.

For example, despite repeatedly claiming in 2022 that he did not endorse COVID lockdowns, Fauci wrote in several 2020 diary entries about how he recommended lockdowns to city, state and federal officials, including President Donald Trump.

Falcons announce defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich's wife Cristina died after battle with cancer

Cristina Ulbrich, the wife of Atlanta Falcons defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich, died Sunday after a battle with cancer, the team announced.

"The Atlanta Falcons are heartbroken by the passing of Cristina Ulbrich, beloved wife of defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich, after her courageous battle with cancer," the Falcons wrote in a statement.

"Cristina was a devoted wife, mother and friend whose strength, grace and resilience touched all who knew her. She was a constant source of love and support to Jeff, their family and the broader Falcons community.

"On behalf of the entire organization, we extend our deepest condolences to Jeff, their children and all who loved Cristina. During this incredibly difficult time, our thoughts and prayers are with the Ulbrich family. We ask that their privacy be respected as they grieve this profound loss, and we stand with them in support and remembrance of Cristina’s life."

Ulbrich, 49, had not been spotted at Falcons training camp during practices Tuesday and Wednesday, according to multiple reports.

Jeff and Cristina share three children together — Samantha, Jax and Jace.

ANDY REID PROVIDES UPDATE ON WIFE OF ERIC BIENIEMY, WHO WAS ALLEGEDLY SHOT BY OWN SON

The couple met during the former linebacker’s recruiting visit to Hawaii in 1997, according to The Athletic.

Ulbrich became the Falcons’ defensive coordinator last season after serving in the same role with the New York Jets since 2021.

It’s his second stint with the Falcons, the team he joined in 2015 to become a linebackers coach. He was a part of the infamous loss in the 2017 Super Bowl, when the New England Patriots stormed back from a 28-3 deficit to defeat the Falcons in overtime to win the Vince Lombardi Trophy.

In 2020, Ulbrich was promoted to assistant head coach and linebackers coach, and in October of that year, he was named defensive coordinator under interim head coach Raheem Morris.

Ulbrich eventually joined Robert Saleh in New York in 2021, and, in 2024, he was named interim head coach after the Jets fired Saleh. Ulbrich finished 3-9 as interim head coach that year before rejoining Morris, who was named full-time head coach, last season to serve as his defensive coordinator.

Morris was fired after one season, but the Falcons kept Ulbrich in his role while hiring Kevin Stefanski as their next head coach for the 2026 season.

Before coaching, Ulbrich spent 10 years in the NFL as a linebacker with the San Francisco 49ers from 2000-09.

He got his first coaching job with the Seattle Seahawks after retirement and also spent time as the linebackers coach and special teams coordinator with the UCLA Bruins.

Nancy Guthrie update: DNA couldn't be profiled from crime scene hair sample, sheriff says

TUCSON, Ariz. — Investigators couldn't obtain a DNA profile from a hair sample recovered inside Nancy Guthrie’s home, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos told Fox News Digital in a new interview Thursday as the case nears its six-month mark.

"Yes, there was a hair. We had it and thought, 'OK, well, we'll do the DNA first,' right? You're going to do DNA before something else," he explained.

Working with the FBI, investigators sent the sample to a California laboratory for additional DNA testing.

"It came back ... there's no DNA," Nanos said. "But does that mean the hair isn't that of the suspect? We won't know that till we have the suspect's hair. You don't just destroy it."

Investigators have preserved the sample, and it still may be of use later, he added.

GOT A TIP?

"There's other things that hair may prove valuable for, but right now it was just about, 'Is there any DNA there?' And the answer was no," the sheriff said. "That was just a matter of weeks ago."

Guthrie is the 84-year-old mother of "Today" co-host Savannah Guthrie. She will have been missing for six months on Saturday.

Nanos indicated the hair was only one part of the broader DNA work underway, though he did not specify how many other samples are being tested.

DNA testing remains a priority in the case, and Nanos said investigators continue working with multiple crime labs to analyze evidence collected from the home.

"Anything we can grasp onto with DNA is a part of this investigation," he said.

"That's really where some of my optimism is, that I just know that we're gonna get this thing resolved," Nanos said.

There is a combined reward of more than $1.2 million that remains unclaimed.

"We believe, just as the family does, just as Savannah does, somebody knows something. We need that person to call us."

At least one suspect was recorded by Guthrie's Nest doorbell camera. According to the FBI, he is between 5 feet, 9 inches and 5 feet, 10 inches tall with a medium build. He was wearing a mask, long sleeves and gloves, and the backpack he carried has been identified as a black Ozark Trail bag.

The family is urging anyone with information to dial 1-800-CALL-FBI.

An anonymous reward can be claimed by calling 520-88-CRIME with information that leads to an arrest.

GOP gubernatorial candidate fighting to flip blue state unveils healthcare plan to lower costs, expand access

EXCLUSIVE: While Massachusetts boasts some of the premier hospitals in the world, it also suffers from some of the highest healthcare costs in America. 

GOP gubernatorial candidate Mike Minogue believes that is no coincidence. 

In an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital, the former longtime medical devices CEO says the commonwealth can boost access, cut costs and reduce regulation through innovation as opposed to government mandates.

MIKE MINOGUE HEADS TO MASS GOP CONVENTION READY TO TAKE ON MAURA HEALEY: 'SHE'S BANKRUPTING OUR STATE'

"I think the most important thing that can help health care is to have a 'patients first mindset.' When I was the CEO of Abiomed, everyone rallied around the patients-first culture, commitment and every action.

"Every decision that we took really was focused on, ‘Does this improve the patient outcome? Does this help the physicians and the nurses make it easier to use? Does it help us save money for the system?’"

He cited the weighty regulatory burden imposed on nurses and doctors as part of the problem.

"We [must] have a focus that we're really going through areas that allow for patients to get access to their physicians, their nurses, and also utilize innovation, things that are breakthrough and things that can minimize the burden on the physicians and the nurses with regulations and documentation.

"I'm optimistic because I've seen it firsthand. I've worked with healthcare systems all over the world. I specifically know how hard physicians and nurses work, and they're the heart of that system. So, what we're going to focus on is a patients-first health care plan that brings access to quality, affordable care."

Healthcare is a top concern for Bay State voters, and Minogue hopes to use the issue to his advantage in a tough battle to challenge incumbent Democrat Gov. Maura Healey.

He notes that the often stark disparity between healthcare access and quality between the metro Boston area and the rest of the state is a perpetual problem that needs a remedy.

"Right now, if you look at what's happening around Massachusetts, we're losing innovation and treatment in areas that do not now have opportunity for high-risk procedures, whether it's maternity, cardiac or stroke.

"We have areas now in communities that might have a 50-plus minute drive to get to the nearest area. An example is Norwood. The hospital closed. So, if you have a cardiac event in Norwood, you're looking at a 55-minute-plus drive at best to get to Boston."

Minogue promises that, during his tenure, he will work to improve coverage and care statewide.

"This is the role of the governor — to provide hub-and-spoke innovation in healthcare for the whole commonwealth, not just Boston."

COMBAT VETERAN TURNED CEO HAS A NEW MISSION: FLIP GOVERNOR'S OFFICE IN BLUE STATE

Yet, Minogue argues, the current system poses not merely a geographic problem, but a fiscal one.

"Our regulations strangle the rest of the commonwealth and almost mandate that all procedures are being done in Boston in the highest-cost environment. If you go to outpatient centers and surgery centers, you reduce the cost of procedures, you lower the overhead and it's a much easier process than driving all the way into Boston. We have incredible hospitals here, but we also have some of the lowest numbers of outpatient clinics and surgery centers as a state. We need to improve that."

Given his business background, Minogue is intimately familiar with the economics of providing healthcare coverage for thousands of families.

"As a CEO, I bought health insurance for 19 years for my employees. I never saw an increase that wasn't double-digit every year. … We need to lower the costs.

"We also have to minimize mandating every single treatment and procedure onto every healthcare plan. We need to allow people to have the ability to select what care they want."

FOX NEWS POLL: GOP DIVISIONS SHAPE TEXAS SENATE RACE

Minogue believes patients should have more flexibility in choosing their coverage while ensuring families are protected from financially devastating medical emergencies.

"We do need to cap the catastrophic. … At Abiomed, what we did every year is we paid the extra amount so that we would always cap what it would cost the patient. We combined that with a health savings account, which is a great way for people to take more control over their own healthcare plan. Everything that you do in a patient's first mindset solves a lot of problems."

With a mental health crisis surging across the state, Minogue has a solution for matching patients and therapists.

"We do have an extensive amount of counselors, but most of them are on private pay. … We don't allow general practitioners or counselors to get paid outside of private pay, so that's why most of these patients are going to the emergency rooms.

"It would be simple and more efficient if we also allowed the subsidized government pay to allow those patients to see the same people in the clinics that private-pay people have access to."

Minogue's plan has specific provisions for addressing an area where the mental health crisis has been particularly acute.

"One of the areas that I'm most focused on for mental health or PTSD is our correctional facility officers in Massachusetts have some of the highest suicide rates in America.

"We know veterans with PTSD also have high suicide rates. These people are all ending up in emergency rooms, and that's not a very good solution."

Hands-on experience with frontline healthcare workers is what Minogue believes gives his plan the credibility to set the Bay State on the right track again.

"I've been very fortunate because I have a network of physicians and nurses and counselors that have been working with me for months.

"We've collaborated so that we can come up with this patients-first plan.

"If you put the patient at the center of that, the treatment plans can be very specialized for better outcomes at lower cost."

Finally, Minogue has a specific plan to root out waste and fraud, a particularly timely topic following investigations across the nation that have unveiled a costly web of corruption in social services at the taxpayer's expense.

"The most important thing is to recognize that better outcomes and a patients-first mindset actually can reduce costs. … But we have an additional area of cost savings. It's called inefficiency, waste and fraud.

"We'll identify inefficiency, excess and fraud, and I believe we're going to find hundreds of millions of dollars in savings at a minimum.

"I'd like to use some of that money as an incentive on outcomes and make sure physicians and nurses can share in the success of improving outcomes. Great quality will lower our costs."

Minogue won the Massachusetts GOP endorsement at the party's state convention in Worcester and is widely expected to win the Republican primary Sept. 1 to face off against incumbent Gov. Maura Healey.

Sen Mark Kelly warns far-left policies that ‘don’t make sense’ could cost Democrats seats

Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., said Thursday during an interview on "Next Question with Katie Couric" that far-left calls to abolish police, eliminate prisons and the border and defund the Pentagon were partly responsible for Democrats' low approval ratings because voters associated those positions with the broader party.

"There are folks out there that say things that just don’t make sense to the American people, like abolish the police or get rid of jails and prisons, get rid of the border, defund the Pentagon," Kelly said. 

"Those things don’t make sense."

Couric asked Kelly whether the Democratic Party’s ideological divide could hurt its candidates during the midterm elections and its eventual 2028 presidential nominee.

DEM REP HENRY CUELLAR REJECTS DSA AGENDA, SAYS SOCIALISTS ARE TRYING TO 'USE' DEMOCRATIC PARTY

"It could cost us some seats," Kelly said. "I think that’s very, very possible."

Kelly distanced himself from the party’s left flank, saying voters sometimes attributed its most progressive proposals to every Democratic candidate.

"Some of them, I think, associate it with Democrats," Kelly said. "That’s not the Democratic Party I’m in. Those aren’t the policies I support."

FOX NEWS POLL: VOTERS WANT MAJOR CHANGE AMID ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL DISCONTENT

Kelly's remarks followed months of bleak polling for Democratic leaders. A Fox News poll conducted in April found that 42% of registered voters viewed the Democratic Party favorably, while 58% viewed it unfavorably. Sixty-one percent said Democrats were focused on the "wrong" issues.

A Quinnipiac University poll released in May found that 20% of registered voters approved of the job Democrats in Congress were doing, while 72% disapproved. Even among Democratic voters, 41% approved and 50% disapproved.

Kelly issued his warning after democratic socialist candidates scored several prominent primary victories

DSA-backed candidate Melat Kiros defeated longtime Rep. Diana DeGette, D-Colo., while DSA member Darializa Avila Chevalier ousted veteran Rep. Adriano Espaillat, D-N.Y. 

DSA-endorsed New York state lawmaker Claire Valdez also won the Democratic primary to succeed retiring Rep. Nydia Velázquez, D-N.Y.

Kelly said he is "seriously considering" a 2028 presidential campaign and that his wife, former Rep. Gabby Giffords, was encouraging him to enter the race. He said his decision would depend on his family and whether he believed he could win.

"She’s about, you know, what’s the best thing for the country?" Kelly said of Giffords. "She is all about public service, and everybody needs to do their part.

"If we come to the conclusion that, you know, I’m the right person for this and my family’s on board, and we also consider what it takes."
