DT Kemari Copeland ruled out for the year with a torn tricep

I mean, its SI in name only at this point.

Owned until 2018 by Time Inc., it was sold to Authentic Brands Group (ABG) following the sale of Time Inc. to Meredith Corporation. The Arena Group (formerly theMaven, Inc.) was subsequently awarded a 10-year license to operate the Sports Illustrated–branded editorial operations, while ABG licenses the brand for other non-editorial ventures and products. In January 2024, The Arena Group missed a quarterly licensing payment, leading ABG to terminate the company's license. Arena, in turn, laid off the publication's editorial staff.[4]

In March 2024, ABG licensed the publishing rights to Minute Media in a 10-year deal, jointly announcing that the print and digital editions would be revived by rehiring some of the editorial staff.[5]

In May 2024, Sports Illustrated failed to deliver a print copy of the publication for the month to its subscribers for the first time in the magazine's 70-year history, according to the New York Post's Josh Kosman (May 17, 2024). As of September 2024, Sports Illustrated has not mailed any print issues to its subscribers for five months (the last delivered magazine being the April 2024 issue), because its former publisher refuses to turn over the subscriber list to the new publisher, according to Sports Business Journal (May 20, 2024).

In 2023 it came out that they were publishing AI generated articles credited to authors who were later determined to be AI-generated as well, down to buying stock photos for their profile images.

Earlier this year, the owners missed a licensing payment and a fallout from it was that the entire staff was terminated. The brand was sold off, and only some of the editorial positions were rehired.

Before the collapse of the company this year it was an AI-generated shell of its former self. Now, its completely unrecognizable. Its really not a credible news outlet anymore.
