Ex-Jets GM thinks Aaron Rodgers, Steelers will be ‘irrelevant by Thanksgiving'
Just about everyone seems to have a hot take on Aaron Rodgers signing with the Steelers – and Mike Tannenbaum is no exception. The former Jets general manager didn't hold back when discussing Rodgers' outlook in Pittsburgh on ESPN's 'Get Up' Wednesday morning. 'I think Aaron Rodgers is gonna be irrelevant by Thanksgiving,' said Tannenbaum, eliciting an incredulous response from host Mike Greenberg. Tannenbaum justified his claim by calling the Steelers a 'non-playoff team,' and by pointing to Rodgers' age (41) and the fact that he's a 'legend who's going off into the sunset.' 'Tell me why [the Steelers] are going to be relevant,' Tannenbaum continued. 'Because they're the third-best team in the division, they're going to have to find out about Will Howard, who they drafted from Ohio State, who I think is very intriguing.' 'I don't think they can win this division, and I think by the end of this season we're going to be talking about a massive transition.' 3 Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers during minicamp on Wednesday. Getty Images The Steelers signed Rodgers to a one-year, $13.6 million contract after the surefire Hall of Famer was cut by the Jets. Tannenbaum, who was GM of the Jets from 2006-12 and part of the Dolphins front office from 2015-18, said he doesn't believe the new-look Steelers have enough to compete with the high-powered offenses of the Ravens and Bengals in the AFC North. 'This feels personal, Mike,' joked co-panelist Louis Riddick. 'I'm just kidding, but this feels personal.' 3 Mike Tannenbaum said he thinks Aaron Rodgers will be 'irrelevant by Thanksgiving' on ESPN's 'Get Up' Wednesday. @awfulannouncing/X Rodgers has been participating in Pittsburgh's mandatory minicamp, going fourth in individual reps after Mason Rudolph, Skylar Thompson and Howard. And though Week 1 is still months away, Rodgers has remained plenty relevant for his off-field life. Most recently, the 10-time Pro-Bowler made headlines for wearing a wedding ring during Steelers minicamp on Tuesday – although he did not disclose who he had married. 3 Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers speaks to the media after the first day of minicamp on Tuesday. Archie Carpenter/UPI/Shutterstock He'll look to keep himself and the Steelers relevant — for football reasons — deep into the season as Pittsburgh seeks its 22nd consecutive season without a losing record.

Why the 2025 NBA Finals lack on-court logos, according to Adam Silver
Why the 2025 NBA Finals lack on-court logos, according to Adam Silver The lack of real on-court NBA Finals logo decals have been a huge discussion point during this championship series, and the league's head honcho has explained his take on the issue. NBA commissioner Adam Silver explained ahead of Wednesday night's Game 3 in Indianapolis that the on-court decals actually went away "a decade ago" for player slipping concerns. "We're back to adding them virtually," Silver said about the logos that fans have missed in this playoff series. Indeed, virtual NBA Finals logos popped up during Sunday's Game 2, but they didn't quite hit the same. Yes, the league and ESPN heard the gripes and at least did something, but the results were admittedly lackluster. Obviously, a player slipping, falling and getting injured during the NBA Finals on an on-court logo would be a nightmare scenario for the league. If these decals were seriously that problematic, it makes sense why they're gone. However, it's also 2025. Surely there's a safe way of celebrating the NBA Finals on the court without making it slippery for the players. We'll see what the league comes up with next year.
