Sports fans can dive into the return of Braves Fest, with players motivated to improve on last season’s outcome in the playoffs — and glad to meet 40,000 of the Braves’ biggest fans this weekend — in the latest Sports Insider.

This week’s 49-page digital magazine also takes an up-close look at the details of how NFL players cope with the punishment that a full season places on their minds and bodies, and the details of just how forceful a full-speed tackle is.

Also, readers can find analysis of what broke down when college quarterback-to-be Jaden Rashada called off his intent to play for the University of Florida and the perceptions it creates about NIL’s presence in the sport.
