Connections: Sports Edition is a New York Times word game about finding common sports threads between words. How to solve the day's puzzle.
Connections: Sports Edition for October 7, 2026 presents four distinct categories to test your sports knowledge.
The yellow category focuses on levels of competitive sports. The green category highlights descriptors for types of home runs. Ballon d'Or Féminin winners comprise the blue category. Lastly, homophones of Hall of Fame quarterbacks make up the purple category.
These categories, colored from easiest to most challenging, contain 16 words each. Your mission is to identify the common thread linking four of these words within each category. Accurate categorizations clear those words from the board, with up to four incorrect guesses allowed before the game ends.
