The New York Times' Connections: Sports Edition puzzle No. 647 for July 2, 2026, challenges players to identify four groups of four words from a 16-word board. The game, developed in association with The Athletic, requires finding common threads between words across categories color-coded by difficulty. Players have up to four mistakes to correctly group all words before the puzzle resets at midnight.
Today's solution groups NASCAR team components: CREW CHIEF, DRIVER, PIT CREW, and SPOTTER. Like the original Connections game, players can shuffle the board and share results on social media. New puzzles launch daily with increasing complexity.
