Aaron Rodgers reportedly signs one-year, $13 million deal with Steelers
After months of speculation and will-they-won't-they narratives, the wait has officially come to an end, and Aaron Rodgers is set to be a Pittsburgh Steeler. Earlier this week, the Steelers and the 41-year-old quarterback agreed to terms on a one-year contract. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Rodgers was in the Steelers' facility on Saturday and signed a one-year, $13.56 million contract that includes $10 million guaranteed along with incentives. Rodgers is expected to attend the Steelers' mandatory mini-camp next week. Throughout his career, Rodgers has thrown 62,952 yards and 503 touchdowns. Last season, he threw 28 touchdowns against 11 interceptions for 3,897 yards. Quarterback carousel continues to spin in Pittsburgh Since the retirement of Ben Roethlisberger after the 2021 season, the Steelers have been on the hunt for their next franchise quarterback. Their first attempt at finding the next one came in 2022 when the Steelers drafted former Pitt quarterback and Heisman Trophy finalist Kenny Pickett 20th overall. Ultimately, the Steelers would trade Pickett just two years later to the Philadelphia Eagles. In 24 starts with the Steelers, Pickett posted a record of 14-10, threw for 4,474 yards, 13 touchdowns, and 13 interceptions. The trade came as a bit of a shock, but Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported, citing sources, that the Steelers traded Pickett because of the way he "was poorly handling the arrival of Russell Wilson." Prior to sending Pickett to Philadelphia, the Steelers signed veteran quarterback Wilson to a one-year deal. Wilson came to Pittsburgh after being cut by the Denver Broncos after just two seasons. Along with Wilson, the Steelers also traded for the 2021 11th overall pick, Justin Fields, from the Chicago Bears. Fields started the season as QB 1 following an injury to Wilson in training camp, but Head Coach Mike Tomlin continued to reiterate that Wilson had "pole position" to be the team's starting quarterback once healthy. For the first six weeks, Fields posted a 4-2 record, passing for 1,106 yards, five touchdowns, and one interception. He ultimately would be benched in favor of Wilson in week seven, who took the job and held onto it. Following a 28-14 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Wild Card round, the Steelers would lose both quarterbacks to free agency. Fields signed with the New York Jets, and Wilson signed with the New York Giants, while the Steelers brought back 2018 third-round pick Mason Rudolph. Now, they'll turn to Rodgers as the search for the next long-term solution at quarterback continues. Aaron Rodgers to face old teams this season Joining the Steelers for the upcoming season means that Rodgers will face off against teams that employed him, as well as teams he has long-standing rivalries. It begins week one when the Steelers play the New York Jets. Not only is it a showdown with Rodgers' former employer, but it will be the Steelers' first game against Justin Fields. In week 8, the Steelers will host the Green Bay Packers, the team that Rodgers spent the bulk of his career with, including a Super Bowl XLV victory over Tomlin and the Steelers. Steelers' offense undergoes offseason changes With both Fields and Wilson departing via free agency, and Mason Rudolph returning, the Steelers' offense will look much different in 2025 than it did in 2024. Along with the addition of Rodgers, the Steelers traded young, star wide receiver George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys not long after they acquired wide receiver DK Metcalf who they signed to a $150 million contract. In the backfield, running back Najee Harris opted to sign with the Los Angeles Chargers, and the Steelers tendered a one-year, restricted free agency deal to Jaylen Warren. They also added former Philadelphia Eagles running back Kenneth Gainwell.

Coco Gauff showcases her unrivaled fortitude in grueling French Open triumph
Coco Gauff showcases her unrivaled fortitude in grueling French Open triumph Show Caption Hide Caption Jessica Pegula talks all things WTA and American women's tennis Jessica Pegula stops by ahead of the French Open talk about American tennis and her partnership with World of Hyatt. Sports Seriously Don't let Coco Gauff have a sniff of victory. Don't get in a situation where a match becomes about more than just the tennis. Don't open the door even a little bit for her to knock down. Because if you're on the other side of the net against this special 21-year old from Atlanta via Delray Beach, Florida, and there's a big trophy on the line, there might not be anybody in sports mentally tougher or better prepared for the ugliness of a true battle. Gauff won a second Grand Slam singles title on Saturday at her favorite tournament, beating No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka 6-7, 6-2, 6-4 to take home the French Open title she has long desired. And Gauff earned it the only way she could have: With her mind, with her desire, with her steadiness and her willingness to get down and dirty in the red clay of Roland Garros. It is a surface that rewards all the qualities Gauff brings to the table, and on a windy day in Paris, she did what she does best. She dragged a Grand Slam final into the mud, made it a battle of attrition and a test of patience, and came out the other side with a few streaks of terre battue on her back and a big silver trophy in her arms. The last year in women's tennis has been largely about Sabalenka's evolution into a complete player and the otherworldly power of her strokes. But this match? It wasn't just about the forehands and the backhands. If it were, Gauff probably wouldn't have won. Instead, it was about all of the intangibles: Handling nerves, preserving emotional energy, moving on from mistakes and accepting that the wind gusts and rain drops were going to make the tennis something less than perfect. In fact, for much of the match, it was ugly. And that's just how Gauff likes it. 'I honestly didn't think I could do it,' she said during the trophy ceremony. 'But I'm going to quote Tyler the Creator who said, 'If I ever told you I had a doubt inside me, I must be lying.' I think I was lying to myself, and I definitely could do it.' The toughest tennis players to beat are the ones who accept that they don't need to be perfect, they only need to be a little bit better than the person on the other side of the net. Understanding that and putting it into action is Gauff's best singular quality, along with the elite defensive speed to keep points alive and a full commitment to making her opponent come up with the goods. It is what often saves her when the forehand breaks down, when the second serve gets shaky and when it looks like the thread she's hanging onto is about to snap. 'She's got an incredible ability to fight,' her father, Corey Gauff, said on TNT. 'That's her best quality. She never gives up no matter the scoreline. Because it looked pretty bleak in the first set and she pulled it together and kept fighting.' Indeed, the Sabalenka onslaught came early. She led 4-1, 40-love, and it looked like the first set was gone. But Gauff didn't mentally concede, reeled it back to even, and then actually blew an opportunity to pull it out in the tiebreaker. Having that effort go unrewarded would have broken a lot of players. Not Gauff. The longer the match went, the longer the points went and the more the wind blew, you could feel Sabalenka's discomfort and frustration growing. At the same time, you could see Gauff's inner calm prevail. It started to look a lot like the 2023 US Open final, when Gauff got Sabalenka to emotionally detonate in a 2-6, 6-3, 6-2 win. Sabalenka didn't handle it much better this time. As Gauff scrambled to keep points alive, Sabalenka pressed to end them – often much too hard, pulling her brain and her body into a self-destructive cycle of mistakes, followed by frustration, leading to more mistakes. Ultimately, the unforced error count told the story: Sabalenka 70, Gauff 30. The steadier player won the day. Sabalenka's emotions came out in all the wrong ways, not just on the court but at the trophy ceremony when she issued a half-apology, half-whine about the 'terrible tennis' and the 'terrible conditions.' Sorry, but that's how sports work and why they fascinate us endlessly. When everything is perfect, Sabalenka is a better tennis player than Gauff more times than not. But the true mark of greatness in tennis is accepting that every day will bring a different challenge, including from Mother Nature, and being able to adapt to the reality that confronts you. Even with two Grand Slam titles at such a young age, Gauff still has a lot of growth to pursue in what she can do with a tennis ball. But if she can get to this stage of a big tournament, where so often the mental side becomes just as important as the physical, Gauff has proven once again that she's already a giant.

Phillies place Bryce Harper on injured list with wrist inflammation
PITTSBURGH — The scuffling Philadelphia Phillies suffered a blow Saturday when they placed first baseman Bryce Harper on the 10-day injured list because of right wrist inflammation before their game against the Pirates. Harper sat out Friday night's 5-4 loss to the Pirates. The move is retroactive to Friday. The two-time National League MVP and eight-time All-Star is hitting .258 with nine home runs, 34 RBIs and eight stolen bases in 57 games. He missed five games from May 26 to June 2 with a bruised right elbow after being hit by a pitch from Atlanta's Spencer Strider.
