Aaron Rodgers, the NFL veteran, left the New York Jets earlier this month and has continued to be a free agent but it seems like FS1 analyst Joy Taylor is offended that Rodgers did not attend the Pittsburgh Steelers' OTAs.
While there are strong rumours that Aaron Rodgers will join the Pittsburgh Steelers soon, no contract has been signed yet, nor have any official announcements been made. FS1 Joy Taylor's take on Aaron Rodgers missing the Steelers' OTAs has sparked confusion among fans, as many have brutally trolled the analyst.
Joy Taylor expresses frustration over Aaron Rodgers missing the Steelers' OTAs and gets brutally trolled by fans
Recently, FS1 analyst Joy Taylor seemed angry about Aaron Rodgers missing the Steelers' OTAs and said, 'Why?! Why?! This is the Pittsburgh Steelers.
They have six Lombardis, they're coached by first-ballot Hall of Famer Mike Tomlin, who's never had a losing season, and we're sitting around talking about Aaron Rodgers is not there on the first day of OTAs.'
Joy Taylor continued, 'Mandatory or not, where is your pride? Where is your dignity? Where is your respect for the game? Where is your respect for this organization? Where is this organization's respect for the history that they have in this league? What are we talking about?'
Fans are confused by this take and have brutally trolled Joy Taylor, especially after she went viral in February because of Fox Sports' scandal involving Emmanuel Joy, Skip Bayless and Charlie Dixon.
A fan commented, 'Joy you're a dumbass', while another fan wrote, 'There is no f**king way Joy Taylor just said 'where's your dignity' on national television.'
A third fan wrote, 'Haha I mean there is a thing called a contract that needs to be signed..you do that when both teams agree on the money you are gonna be paid. Wild concept!! If they don't agree Joy then you can't go to work..'
Another user wrote, 'Why does she sound so mad though? Like she's personally offended by Aaron not being there.
lol Does she not know he's not even on the team. Why would he be there?!@JoyTaylorTalks has zero credibility at this point.'
A fifth fan noted, 'This is insane, no way you pay mfers to just study sports and they do this.'
Aaron Rodgers' future in the NFL remains uncertain
Aaron Rodgers has not yet reacted to how FS1 analyst Joy Taylor has expressed her frustration over the NFL veteran missing out on the Pittsburgh Steelers' OTA this week.
The NFL veteran remains a free agent, and all eyes are on his decision to join which team for the upcoming season of the NFL.

Yograj Singh's simple yet heavy question for Vaibhav Suryavanshi post IPL success; ‘Can you survive five days?'
Former India cricketer Yograj Singh has put forward a simple yet heavy question to Indian Premier League (IPL) sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi of whether the 14-year-old survive five days of Test cricket in an era of T20s. The teenager from Bihar took the cricket world by storm when the Rajasthan Royals opener slammed a century against Gujarat Titans to become the youngest IPL centurion in history. Known to never mince words, Yograj praised the talent of Suryavanshi but also admitted the real greatness comes through Test cricket. 'My vision is Test cricket. Can you survive five days? That's the real test,' Yograj was quoted as saying to InsideSport. '50 overs – fair enough. 20 overs – fair enough. I don't go by these formats. But since they are there, you should be fit enough to play all three formats. Why do you struggle? Because you are only concentrating on T20, IPL and 50 overs. Aj toh 50 overs bhi nahi khel sakte hum log (We cannot even play 50 overs.) 'That's the way we are,' he added. Bought for just ₹ 1.1 crore, Suryavanshi warmed the benches for the first seven games until Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson had to sit out due to injury. The hard-hitting left hander scored a hundred in his third IPL game and ended the campaign with a fifty. In seven innings, Suryavanshi managed 252 runs at an astonishing strike rate of over 206. Following IPL 2025, Suryavanshi has reportedly scored a 190 in a practice match at the BCCI's Centre of Excellence.

Philadelphia Eagles' running back Saquon Barkley leads NFL merchandise sales, passing Kansas City Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes
Saquon Barkley (via Getty Images) Philadelphia Eagles star Saquon Barkley reached the No. 1 spot in NFL merchandise sales, surpassing Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Saquon Barkley led all players in overall sales of officially licensed products, the NFL Players Association's latest report concludes, making him the league's most marketable player for March 2024 through February 2025. Saquon Barkley overtakes Patrick Mahomes as NFL's most marketable player In a league that has traditionally been quarterback-dominated in popularity figures, Saquon Barkley's rise to being the top-selling player is an intriguing aberration. The Philadelphia Eagles' new sensation bumped Patrick Mahomes aside based on sales of anything from jerseys to collectibles and accessories. It's the first time since 2017 that a running back has topped the list, both a personal milestone for Barkley and a broader change in fan interest. The entire list, compiled by the NFL Players Association, is based on sales volume from big-box retailers such as Fanatics, Funko, FOCO, and Outerstuff. It includes all officially licensed NFL products and products bearing a player's image or name, including toys, bags, apparel, and more. Eagles Press Conference: Saquon Barkley, DeVonta Smith, and More | June 10, 2025 'I don't mean it in a cocky way—I just want to be the best running back to ever play the game. Or at least one of the best,' Barkley told reporters. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Transform Your Child's Confidence with Our Public Speaking Program Planet Spark Book Now Undo 'I know there's no definitive way to prove who's the greatest, but that's what drives me. I believe God blessed me with a unique talent, and He's put me through a lot of adversity. That's the mindset I bring.' The occasional Penn State legend has already accumulated 7,216 rushing yards in six NFL seasons, fourth among active running backs behind Joe Mixon (7,428), Ezekiel Elliott (9,130), and Derrick Henry (11,423). Reaching Emmitt Smith's all-time high of 18,355 yards is a long shot, however—a pursuit Barkley plans to pursue.

And while he looks to leave his name on the map in NFL history, both as an athlete and an entity, everyone will be watching Philadelphia in 2025.

What penalties do NFL players face for missing mandatory minicamp? Trey Hendrickson and T.J. Watt still absent
NFL's last leg before training camps is here and many players still in the hopes of securing a better deal from their respective teams have made the bold move to skip 'mandatory minicamps' which started on Tuesday (June 10) for 24 clubs. Although the decision is usually seen as a subtle inclination to pressurize their teams, the move doesn't come without a price tag attached to it. ALSO READ| Deebo Samuel's viral minicamp video sparks weight gain talks, George Kittle defends teammate According to the NFL's collective bargaining agreement, players are subjected to pre-decided fines if they skip out on mandatory minicamps. These prices are routinely increased every year and calculated based on the number of days missed by a player. This is unless a player has received an excused absence from his team. As of 2025, this is the price chart of fines and penalties: DAY 1: $17,462 DAY 2: $34,925 DAY 3: $52,381 TOTAL: $104,768 Although these prices aren't bound to burn deep holes in NFL stars' pockets, missing minicamps has more to do with the statement they make rather than the money they bring in. Many players still in the hopes of negotiating better deals with their teams have taken the bold move to skip out this year's minicamps in the hopes of bringing the other side to the negotiation table. Trey Hendrickson's feud with the Cincinnati Bengals is now a well-known public affair which became all the more clear when Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport claimed in a social media post that lack of progress in a new deal led to his absence. Drama seems to be akin to the Pittsburgh Steelers. After leaving the Aaron Rodgers saga in the lurches, Steel City now finds themselves in a new fix as TJ Watt decided to skip organized team activities due to the lack of a new long-term deal. Terry McLaurin, one of the Washington Commanders' more promising players, is reportedly frustrated with the lack of progress on a new long-term deal in light of this year's Super Bowl run and has stated that as his official reason for absence. ALSO READ| Detroit Pistons vs Dallas Mavericks: When can NBA lovers in Mexico book tickets? The Miami Dolphins have been hit hard this time as two of their players- Jonnu Smith and Jalen Ramsey- have been benched this minicamp season. The agreement comes over the possibility of Ramsey being traded to the Steelers on a trade and Ramsey being cornered out of the Dolphins despite having four years left on his contract. It remains unclear whether Ramsey will be released if the team fails to trade him successfully but the chances of him competing for Miami come September are relatively slim. Once the minicamps conclude, training camps and preseason games will soon kick off before the start of the regular season in September.
