Bucs' Jalen McMillan says Antoine Winfield Jr. is 'everywhere' after day 1 of camp
Jalen McMillan spoke to the media on Wednesday after the Bucs' first practice. He told Fox Sports' Greg Auman that Winfield Jr. was in midseason form based on what he saw during the session.
Auman shared that McMillan talked about Winfield Jr., saying, 'Tweeze is everywhere. He's a ninja on the field. . .'
Antoine Winfield Jr. picked off two passes on Wednesday, including the first pass of the training camp from Baker Mayfield.
Winfield Jr. and his play style were recognized by the team last offseason when he earned a contract extension from them, worth four years and $84 million. While he didn't get a chance to prove his value last season, it seems he is poised to do just that during the upcoming season if he can remain healthy for the Bucs.

A New 'Golden Generation'? FOX Sports Crew Discuss Spain's Recent Dominance
Does it feel Spain has been at the center of the soccer world in recent years? Between its men's and women's teams, La Roja has certainly been the sport's major force. Part of the reason for women's team dominance has been star players playing a lot of games together across club and country. Star duo Alexia Putellas and Aitana Bonmatí have led Barcelona to two Champions League titles in 2023 and 2024. "There's a lot of Barça players on this pitch, they're familiar with each other," said FOX Sports analyst Ari Hingst, who won four Euro titles and three World Cups with Germany. "You know the running patterns, six of them are in the starting XI today, and that definitely helps." FOX Sports analyst and U.S. women's team legend Carli Lloyd pointed to Spain's midfield as the catalyst for their success. "I look at the Spanish midfielders as the best midfielders in the world. They provide linkup play for one another," Lloyd said. "I look at it as the golden generation like Barcelona men's players - Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets - it's amazing to see." Spain is aiming for its first Euro title – and its third straight trophy – on Sunday, having already defeated England at the 2023 Women's World Cup. The team has also won the 2024 Nations League crown. As for the men's team, they'll be among the favorites next year at the 2026 World Cup (watch all games on FOX). Behind teenage sensation Lamine Yamal, the team has also had recent success with winning the 2023 Nations League and 2024 Euro. Reporting by The Associated Press.

Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers offers perfect response to Terry Bradshaw
As the offseason dragged on and it was unclear whether quarterback Aaron Rodgers would choose the Pittsburgh Steelers, another NFL team, or retire, fatigue began to set in. This prompted folks to speak candidly when asked about the situation as it dragged on until late June. One of those people was Steelers legend Terry Bradshaw. He made some very pointed comments about Rodgers as he led the Steelers along, saying that Rodgers should "stay in California, chew on bard and whisper to the gods." NFL analyst Kyle Brandt asked Rodgers about Bradshaw's comments at training camp and Rodgers gave a perfect response. "I whisper to the gods every single day," Rodgers said. "I have known Terry [Bradshaw] for a long time, being part of Fox. Terry is a legend—he's an absolute legend… but Terry, like a lot of people, doesn't know me. So he has an idea of what he thinks about me, based on what I have done—the documentary, what I have said, the darkness retreat, or whatever the h*** you want to talk about." We need to keep in mind that Bradshaw has been known to speak out of pocket about the Steelers and head coach Mike Tomlin as well. It would have been easy for Rodgers to take a shot at the Hall of Famer but you have to respect the fact that he took the high road.
