I shoot Portrait, engagement, family and team sports pictures. Which lens out of the Rf line would you recommend? 28-70 f2? I've been looking at the 50 and 85mm. Thanks and hope all is well.

The 85 is considered to be a portrait lens. I had the EF version. You are diverse in your shooting so you need a wide lens team shots. I never liked changing lenses very much in those situations. I'd probably go with the RF 24-70 2.8 myself. My EF 24-70 II was awesome. I have read the RF version is better unless you need f2.

Do some reading about the 70-200. I was going to post some links about AF issues but I just spotted this. If you have the cash both 28 or 24/70 and this one would be a nice combo.
