If he is really into watching sports he may have been wishing he was watching it with the guys. His main conversations may be about sports. He may not do anything except work and watch sports. Did he mention what he likes to do for recreation? Does he own a house, does he rent, does he live at home like the last one?
It's only been one date. It's too soon to tell if he's ghosting you. Not everyone texts a lot. He might also be dating others, there is nothing wrong with that.
As for him seemingly boring - maybe he is, or maybe you don't ask him the right questions. Also, are you an interesting person? What makes a person interesting?
I messaged him. He answered right back. I suggested plans. He said he heard there might be funky weather. He says he'll let me know. That he made plans with a family member who he barely gets to see.
Well, tbh, funky weather and "I'll let you know" don't sound super promising.
He's now asking me about my work week. So we'll see what happens. Thank you for all the responses. I know I'm not the most interesting. I try hard though. Hard to bounce off of "I'm good"
He says he works Monday through Thursday 14 hour days, so he's busy those days. It's now Wednesday and I haven't heard from him since I messaged him Monday.
I think it's ridiculous to expect someone will text you when he's working 14 hour days. Have you ever worked those kind of hours for 4 days? I have very recently. All I could do was sleep, eat and shower. I barely spoke to my husband except when we ate dinner or when I crawled into bed. I don't even have a commute.
Ignoring the not texting back, he doesn't seem particularly interested--going through the motions of what is expected and polite. It's pretty easy to say "I would never ghost someone," but the reality is that after a single date it's not that big of a deal to not reach out again.
You had a single date. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Next...
While I was responding you added an update. Funky weather and a family member he barely sees equals a lack of interest in my opinion. I was too busy to text you equals lack of interest.

It really depends. Maybe he really has been busy with work, maybe the weather really is going to suck on the days in question (it's January after all) and maybe he does have plans with a cousin or whomever. Sure it could be a lie, but maybe not. All those things have been realities for me in the last month. Again, if ball is firmly back in his court (i.e. you proposed plans, and he has not yet counter-proposed) and he doesn't end up following up and proposing another date himself, then he doesn't have enough interest. That's an easy way to know without making assumptions based on very little/no evidence.
We had a nice little conversation. He said he thinks I'm intellectually smart and pretty. So I guess seems interested? The ball is 100% in his court. I'll know after this weekend if he wants to see me.
