The NFL's "legal tampering period" kicked off Monday, allowing teams to reach agreements with free agents in advance of Wednesday's official start to the league's new year.
It's a day when fans anxiously search for new information regarding their favorite teams and players. But Elon Musk's X (a/k/a twitter), one of the world's biggest sources of breaking news, is experiencing widespread outages. Fans are flocking to smaller alternatives such as Bluesky and Threads for information.
Data via downdetector.comMusk is having a bit of a rough time lately. One of his SpaceX Starships spectacularly exploded on Thursday, stock in his Tesla car manufacturer has plunged over 33% in a month, he is facing relentless protests over his mass firings of federal workers, and Mike Myers has returned to Saturday Night Live solely to ridicule the billionaire each weekend.
Now NFL fans and newsmakers are turning to X competitors due to the unfortunately-timed outages.
On Pattison will maintain a live-updated rumor tracker HERE throughout the legal tampering period.
