Bijan Robinson Makes Announcement on 2028 Los Angeles Olympics
Bijan Robinson Makes Announcement on 2028 Los Angeles Olympics originally appeared on Athlon Sports. For the first time in the historic sporting event's history, flag football will be a part of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. Advertisement In addition to flag football joining sports such as baseball/softball, cricket, lacrosse and squash as the new sports being added, the other exciting news around the flag football aspect is that NFL players were given the stamp of approval to play by the owners in a 32-0 vote back in May. While many fans have begun speculating who will or won't play, some notable stars have seemingly made decisions already. Kansas City Chiefs quarterback and three-time Super Bowl champion, Patrick Mahomes, seemed to have passed on the opportunity. Meanwhile, four-time All-Pro receiver Justin Jefferson made it clear he hopes to rep the Stars and Stripes. On Monday, former Texas Longhorns star and current Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson revealed that he would be interested in playing. "I think it's awesome," Robinson told the media. "All it does is grow the game a lot. I think for me like, I grew up playing flag football and that was my offseason game was flag and 7-on-7. So, you know I feel like it's always an honor to play for your country, like you always wanna play for your country. And I would love to show my skill set on that type of stage." Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson staring at the Hartline-Imagn Images While Robinson admitted he would like to play, he did acknowledge that there are athletes out there who specialize in the sport. He also said that scheduling will play a major role in whether he and other NFL stars can play, along with the NFL teams actually allowing players to play in them. Advertisement Regardless, he doubled down on wanting to play. "I would love to play in that game if given the opportunity," Robinson said. "But obviously, we'll see. I don't want it to affect my team and what we got going on here." This past season, Robinson rushed for 1,456 yards and 14 touchdowns, while also adding 61 catches for 431 yards and a score. Assuming the 23-year-old is healthy when the Olympics roll around, it's hard to imagine there is a more shifty and elusive option than him.

Bears' Rookie Wide Receiver Has Reaction to Packers' Jaire Alexander News
Bears' Rookie Wide Receiver Has Reaction to Packers' Jaire Alexander News originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Green Bay Packers began the start of mini-camp with a huge move within the roster on Monday morning. Advertisement Long-time Packers' cornerback and two-time Second-Team All-Pro Jaire Alexander has been released from the team. It was an interesting move that was made by the Packers, as Alexander was still under contract until 2026 after he signed a four-year, $84 million extension with the team in 2022. Green Bay has shown that they are ready to move on from Alexander after he's played in just 14 games in the past two seasons combined.

Advertisement In this case, Bears second-round pick Luther Burden won't ever have to face Jaire Alexander twice in a single season. Burden decided to trash-talk Alexander after his release, commenting "Uh oh" on the NFL's Instagram post. Burden is set to begin his first year in the NFL after being drafted with the No. 39 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft out of the University of Missouri. In three seasons at Missouri, he contributed 192 receptions, 2,263 receiving yards and 21 touchdowns for the Tigers. Now, Burden will be joining the Chicago Bears' wide receiver room along with DJ Moore and Rome Odunze to give second-year quarterback and 2024 No. 1 pick Caleb Williams another option to throw to. Advertisement Although Luther Burden has huge potential to be another great wide receiver in the league, it's interesting to see a rookie talking smack to an NFL veteran before taking his first ever snap.

Patrick Mahomes' Wife Brittany Mahomes Shares Heartfelt Post on Tuesday
Brittany Mahomes is showing her kids the importance of staying active from an early age. The certified personal trainer and wife of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, recently brought one of her children along to a workout session with Kristy Rae. "I'll never stop saying how important it is for your children to see you leading by example and taking care of yourself. It teaches them more than words ever could," wrote Rae on her Instagram story on Tuesday afternoon. "@brittanylynne you're such a good mama." The video on Rae's Instagram story included Mahomes and her two-year-old son, Bronze, lying down on the ground doing a leg workout. Mahomes then reposted Rae's Instagram story, with the caption "My boyyy." It is not surprising that Mahomes is showing her children how important exercise is at a young age. During the pandemic, the mother of three used to post workout and fitness content on her Instagram. Before marrying Patrick Mahomes and starting a family, she played soccer at the University of Texas at Tyler and signed on to play professionally with UMF Afturelding/Fram in Iceland after she graduated with a degree in kinesiology in 2017. After playing professional soccer for one season, she decided to move back to the US to support her husband on his NFL journey. On Sunday, the family celebrated Mother's Day, and Mahomes posted a video of her children jumping around in a bouncy house on her Instagram story. Beyond her fitness endeavors, Mahomes is a co-owner of the Kansas City Current, a National Women's Soccer League team, and she continues to be an advocate for women's sports and community wellness.
