National reactions: Jets get praise after Aaron Rodgers' commentary
Aaron Rodgers had one more in him... but it might not have went to according to his plan.

Rodgers mentioned a variety of issues he had with the way his departure from the Jets went... but his candid chat had many questioning him after he revealed his thoughts with few questioning the team.
That likely wasn't part of the plan for Rodgers...nonetheless, here's a roundup of national media reaction to Rodgers' discussing his departure from the Jets:

Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman join Australia SailGP team as co-owners
Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman become co-owners of the Australia SailGP team on Thursday. The 'Deadpool & Wolverine' stars joined driver and CEO Tom Slingsby in leading the team's rebrand after several successful seasons, winning three championships in its four seasons. The team will be called the BONDS Flying Roos, with the Australian underwear company BONDS as its title partner. 'We're incredibly excited to set sail together in this new adventure,' Reynolds and Jackman said in a joint statement released through SailGP. 'Hugh brings a deep love for and pride in his home country, as well as being an avid fan of sailing. He will also be bringing his overly clingy emotional support human along for the ride. Apologies in advance to Australia. No comment on whether we're writing this in our BONDS. No further questions.' It's the latest sports venture for Reynolds, who along with fellow Hollywood actor Rob McElhenney is a co-owner of Wrexham, one of the world's oldest soccer clubs. Reynolds and McElhenney were also part of an investment group that acquired Colombian club La Equidad earlier this year. The BONDS Flying Roos SailGP Team is expected to make its debut at the Mubadala New York Sail Grand Prix starting June 7. Slingsby, an Olympic gold medalist, said in a release that Jackman and Reynolds bring 'unmatched star power, a love for storytelling, and a sharp sense of (humor) that fits perfectly with our team.' 'With BONDS joining as our Title Partner and the launch of the BONDS Flying Roos,' Slingsby added, 'we're building something distinctly Australian; a team driven by spirit, resilience, and national pride.' ___ AP sports:

New York Rangers expected to hire David Quinn, Joe Sacco, Ty Hennes as assistant coaches
David Quinn, Joe Sacco and Ty Hennes are all expected to join the New York Rangers staff as assistant coaches under new coach Mike Sullivan, a league source told The Athletic. The Rangers were able to name their assistants when Boston (Marco Sturm) and Pittsburgh (Dan Muse) announced new head coaches this week, taking all three names out of consideration. Quinn and Sacco are both former NHL head coaches. Advertisement The Quinn hire marks a reunion. He was the Rangers' head coach from 2018-19 to 2020-21, compiling a 96-87-25 record. General manager Chris Drury fired Quinn shortly taking over as team president. The 58-year-old coached the San Jose Sharks for two seasons and was one of Sullivan's assistants this past season in Pittsburgh. He'll likely help run the power play in New York. Joe Sacco spent most of last season as Boston's interim head coach after the Bruins fired Jim Montgomery. Before taking over for Montgomery, he spent nine seasons as an assistant coach for the Bruins. He worked closely with the team's penalty kill in Boston and got within one win of getting his name on the Stanley Cup in 2019. He was also the head coach of the Colorado Avalanche for four seasons. Sullivan, Quinn and Sacco were college teammates at Boston University, though Quinn did not appear in any games the year all three overlapped, as he had been diagnosed with a rare disorder that prevented blood from clotting properly. He was still co-captain of the team. Hennes has been under Sullivan his whole NHL coaching career. He started with the Penguins as a skills and skating coach in 2018-19, then moved up to an assistant role in 2022. Sullivan had already retained goaltending coach Jeff Malcolm and skills coach Christian Hmura, both of whom were on Peter Laviolette's Rangers staff last season. Muse, one of Laviolette's assistants, got the Pittsburgh job, and Michael Peca, another Laviolette assistant, went to Chicago. Both Muse and Peca had the opportunity to interview to remain as Rangers assistants after Laviolette's firing, The Athletic previously reported.

When does NFL minicamp start? Dates for all 32 teams
When does NFL minicamp start? Dates for all 32 teams Show Caption Hide Caption Greg Olsen expresses excitement for upcoming Olympic flag football Former TE Greg Olsen is excited for some NFL players to showcase their skills in the upcoming 2028 Summer Olympics and the debut of flag football. Sports Seriously As the NHL and NBA postseasons come to an explosive head in their respective championship series and MLB's regular season begins its third full month, the monolithic NFL machine continues to operate quietly in the background. All 32 teams' (optional) organized team activities (OTAs) are winding down as June begins. Minicamps are next up on the docket in the NFL offseason calendar – the first offseason workouts featuring mandatory attendance this year and the last round of offseason workouts before training camp. As is the case with OTAs, minicamp prohibits full contact drills. Players can participate in 7-on-7s, 9-on-7s and 11-on-11s, but contact drills won't be allowed until training camp in mid-July. NFL OFFSEASON: What are OTAs? Explaining NFL's schedule Minicamps are mandatory, which means players not in attendance will be fined for their absences. According to Spotrac, a player fine will be a maximum of $17,462 for the first day absent, $34,925 for the second day and $52,381 for missing a third day. Here's everything to know about this year's round of NFL mandatory minicamps: When does NFL minicamp start? The start of the NFL's mandatory minicamp varies by team. Most will host their offseason workout session from June 10-12, but some will open camp earlier. Notably, the Chicago Bears' mandatory minicamp ran from June 3-5. As such, their three-day session will wrap up before any other camp begins. A handful of teams will have later minicamps than the rest of the league. The Baltimore Ravens, Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Rams, New York Giants and Seattle Seahawks will all host start their minicamps on either June 16 or 17 as they begin to prepare for the 2025 NFL season. Only one NFL team has canceled its mandatory minicamp for 2025. That would be the Detroit Lions, who called off the three-day session after being chosen to participate in the NFL's Hall of Fame Game to kickstart the preseason. The Lions will instead open training camp early in advance of their July 31 date with the Los Angeles Chargers, per the Detroit Free Press.
