Jalen Hurts arrives in style wearing a Kangol hat to the NFC Championship game

USA Today26-01-2025

Jalen Hurts is an old soul.
The Eagles' 26-year-old quarterback arrived at the NFC Championship in style, wearing an old-school Kangol hat and a sharp, conservative, and stylish pregame outfit.
Hurts wore a similar hat before the Eagles faced the Steelers, and the quarterback was 25 of 32 passing for 290 yards and three touchdowns in a win over Pittsburgh.

Big Ben makes bold prediction on Aaron Rodgers' future: 'I think this might be it for him'

Big Ben makes bold prediction on Aaron Rodgers' future: 'I think this might be it for him' Aaron Rodgers hasn't even unpacked in Pittsburgh — and Ben Roethlisberger is already predicting how it all ends. On his podcast, Footbahlin with Ben Roethlisberger, the legendary Steelers QB shared why he believes 2025 may be Rodgers' last season in the NFL: 'I don't think he's got much more after this year,' Roethlisberger said. 'I think this might be it for him — personally. I have no reason — you could ask, 'Well how do you know?' I don't know. I'm just guessing in terms of you coming off an Achilles [tear]. Coming off my elbow [injury], my first year back I felt like I was 100. I wasn't even — you don't realize you're not 100 until the next year when you are 100.' Roethlisberger stated that Rodgers will feel healthier this season, but it doesn't necessarily mean he'll play better — before ultimately concluding his speculation on Rodgers' future: '…He's going to feel better, but it doesn't mean that he's going to have two or three years left. I think this might be his last go.' If this truly is his last season — and this may be wishful thinking — here's to hoping Rodgers can lead the Steelers to their first playoff win since the 2016 season.

Trade Idea Lands Broncos 5x 1,000-yard Receiver Terry McLaurin

Trade Idea Lands Broncos 5x 1,000-yard Receiver Terry McLaurin originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Washington Commanders, who surprisingly made it to the NFC Championship last year, seem to be having some troubles before the year even starts. Star wide receiver Terry McLaurin has stated that he is unhappy about not yet receiving an extension, and he has yet to attend Commanders' minicamp. He was a big part of the team's success last year, but Washington seems to have some doubts about giving the 29-year-old receiver another extension. Advertisement The Commanders already got Deebo Samuel for almost nothing, and with a deep receiver room already, Washington could look to move off of him for some help on the other side of the ball. The Commanders drafted Jaylin Lane from Virginia Tech, signed Michael Gallup and K.J. Osborn, and they have a lot of faith in Luke McCaffrey going into his second year. The Denver Broncos need a star wide receiver for Bo Nix to throw to, and if the Commanders can not work out a deal with McLaurin, then he would be the perfect fit in Denver. McLaurin can make plays down the field, he has elite adjustment ability to make athletic catches, and is a reliable target. The trade would be Courtland Sutton, Alex Singleton, and John Franklin-Myers for Terry McLaurin and a fifth-round pick. The Commanders would get defensive line help and linebacker help while also getting a 1,000-yard receiver to replace McLaurin. Sutton could be a useful number two behind Samuel, and he would also be the only tall jump ball receiver that the team has been missing. The Commanders giving up McLaurin is not ideal, but getting that kind of return would make it worth it. They would get two defensive starters and a really good wide receiver. The Commanders let up 55 points in the NFC Championship to the Philadelphia Eagles last season and need as many defensive talents as they can. Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix (10) hands the ball off to Denver Broncos running back Tyler Badie (28) during the second quarter against the Buffalo Bills in an AFC wild card game at Highmark Fisher-Imagn Images The Broncos may seem like they are giving up a lot, but to finally get their star wide receiver, who can become a feared duo with Bo Nix, is worth it. Alex Singleton was really good in his first two years in Denver, but he only played in three games last season, and the Broncos proved they can still have an elite defense without him. Singleton is 31 years old, coming off a torn ACL, so now is the perfect time to give him up. Advertisement Franklin-Myers was another productive player for Denver, but he was not good enough to be untouchable in a trade for McLaurin, and it would give Broncos rookie Sai'vion Jones to get thrown in the fire his rookie season. This could give Jones early experience and let the Broncos see if he shows any signs of being a star in this league. Sutton would get replaced by McLaurin, who is the same age but overall just a better receiver. McLaurin has been a 1,000-yard receiver in five of his six seasons; the only season where he did not reach this mark was his rookie year, where he had 919 yards in 14 games. McLaurin has been extremely consistent throughout his career and had one of his best seasons ever last year. He had 82 catches for 1,096 yards and 13 touchdowns, and 14 catches for 227 yards and three touchdowns in the playoffs. He could be vital to the growth of Bo Nix and be the playmaker the Broncos are missing. The Broncos recently signed J.K. Dobbins, drafted RJ Harvey, and signed Evan Engram during the offseason. The only offensive skill position they are missing a game changer at is wide receiver. The Commanders still have time to offer McLaurin an extension that both sides can agree on, but with his frustration growing, the two sides could end up in a stalemate. In that case, the Broncos need to make a deal for McLaurin as soon as possible.

Steelers WR DK Metcalf praises 'jitterbug' Calvin Austin: 'He's explosive as heck'

Steelers WR DK Metcalf praises 'jitterbug' Calvin Austin: 'He's explosive as heck' Steelers WR Calvin Austin III could be in for a Year 4 breakout — and it wouldn't surprise DK Metcalf one bit. At mandatory minicamp, Metcalf wasted little time complimenting what makes Austin stand out (courtesy of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette): '[Calvin Austin III's] a jitterbug out there, but he's explosive as heck,' Metcalf said. 'Just looking forward to lining up with him for the rest of these last couple days of camp and then moving on to training camp, and then just starting to work off each other in different route concepts.' Steelers wide receivers coach Zach Azzanni also spoke highly of Austin at mandatory minicamp — saying the fourth-year wide receiver is slated for the WR2 role, and could potentially work as the primary receiver due to the differences between him and Metcalf. Here's to hoping Austin's explosiveness — a quality that had Metcalf in awe — will translate well with the addition of new Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers on offense.
