🏈 Justin Fields celebrated in Dubai after his new two-year, $40 million contract with the New York Jets.
🏈 Colin Cowherd of FS1 trashed the Steelers trade for DK Metcalf. He believes the Steelers trading for Metcalf is like “buying a house to save the marriage”
“I am NOT player hating, I am situation hating,” Cowherd said.
🏈 Stephen A. Smith thinks the Steelers should run it back with Russell Wilson.
🏈 Former NFL quarterback and current ESPN analyst Dan Orlovsky believes the Steelers and Aaron Rodgers are a match made in heaven.
🏈 Mina Kimes believes Aaron Rodgers would form a very toxic combination with George Pickens and DK Metcalf.
“Have you guys ever seen how Aaron Rodgers reacts when wide receivers don’t run the right routes or maybe do what he expects? You guys watch DK Metcalf and George Pickens play football? That is a potentially very toxic combination of quarterback and wide receivers. I’m just gonna throw that out there,” Kimes said on ESPN live.
Mina Kimes believes Pickens and Metcalf are a better fit with Russell Wilson.
“In fact, they’re actually a better fit with Russell Wilson. The ability to attack deep outside the numbers. Not saying that Russell Wilson’s a better quarterback than him. I’m just saying, we were talking about those receivers with that quarterback,” she said.
🏈 Former Steelers running back Jerome Bettis and offensive tackle Max Starks paid tribute to Craig Wolfley. Former Steelers offensive lineman and color broadcaster Craig Wolfley died at the age of 66 on Monday. Wolfley had been privately fighting a cancer diagnosis in recent weeks.
“Deeply saddened by the loss of my friend and @steelers brother, Craig Wolfley. A true warrior on and off the field, his impact on the game and the people around him will never be forgotten. Rest in peace,” Bettis wrote on X.
“It is with a heavy heart that I repost this official statement from the @steelers on the passing of my colleague, mentor, Big Brother/Uncle, friend, but most importantly Faith’s husband, and Megan/Kyle/Maximus/CJ/Hannah/Ester’s Dad who was a devout Man of God…..,” Starks wrote on X.
