Super scoopage from FOX Sports' Jay Glazer on Super Bowl Sunday.
The elite NFL Insider reported the New York Jets met with Aaron Rodgers last week and told the veteran quarterback he is not in their plans going foward.
Big scoopage: Aaron Rodgers flew back to New Jersey last week to meet with the Jets about his future with the team, only to be told that the team was moving on from him. If that means that he will be a June 1 designation that allows him to sign with any team in the league on…

If Rodgers is to continue his NFL career, it will be somewhere other than with Gang Green.
Rodgers was 5-12 as the Jets starting quarterback in 2024 after seeing action in one game and four plays before tearing his Achilles in 2023. He will be 42 in December so any team that is thinking about landing Rodgers will have to deal with the age factor and whether he has anything left.

Donna Kelce joins cast of 'The Traitors' Season 4 Show Caption Hide Caption Donna Kelce talks new movie, Taylor Swift, and special meaning behind her jersey In Hallmark's "Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story," Donna Kelce is wearing a heartfelt jersey from her son Travis, featuring a sweet message. USA TODAY Donna Kelce, the mother of Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, is having a busy NFL offseason. The celebrity mom was just revealed as one of the cast members on "The Traitors" Season 4. "The Traitors" is reality competition show following a group of contestants in a Scottish castle who are secretly split into two groups: traitors and faithfuls. The faithfuls must determine who the traitors are and banish them from the game in order to win a grand cash prize. The American version of the show, which airs on Peacock, has racked up several accolades since premiering in 2023, including an Emmy Award and, as NBC touted, being named the most-watched unscripted series in the country. Here's what to expect from Donna Kelce's appearance on the show. What is 'The Traitors'? Why Donna Kelce was cast "The Traitors" features a lineup of reality stars and other public figures on its cast. The first season of the American version consisted of a combination of regular people and big name stars, but the previous two seasons have strictly included the latter. While the cast generally includes fan favorites from shows like "The Real Housewives," "Survivor" and several other reality TV programs, there have also been a few wild card picks − which helps explain how Donna Kelce may have ended up in the group. For example, last season saw a few celebrity relatives on the cast. Dylan Efron, the brother of actor Zac Efron, was one of Season 3's winners. Sam Asghari, the ex-husband of pop star Britney Spears, was also on the show. Who is Donna Kelce? Donna Kelce is the mother of Travis and Jason Kelce, who are both known for their NFL careers. While she has long been in the spotlight as a two-time NFL parent, her prominence rose in 2023 when her sons competed against each other in Super Bowl LVII, during which "Mama Kelce" wore her signature split jersey. Since then, she has appeared in ads for brands like Pillsbury and Ziploc and even made cameos in two Hallmark films last year. Kelce is an Ohio native, having earned a radio and television degree from Ohio University. She previously worked in the banking industry in Ohio, according to her alma mater.

5 things to know about new Rams OT D.J. Humphries
5 things to know about new Rams OT D.J. Humphries The Los Angeles Rams added some depth to their offensive tackle group by signing veteran D.J. Humphries. It was then reported on Friday that Alaric Jackson is once again dealing with blood clots, raising questions about his availability for the 2025 season – though the belief is he'll still play this year. With Jackson's health scare, the Humphries signing makes more sense. He's a viable backup in the event that Jackson becomes unavailable, a smart addition by the Rams three months before the season. Here are five things to know about Humphries, who was a decorated high school player and a standout in college. He was the No. 1 offensive tackle prospect out of high school Humphries went to Mallard Creek High School in Charlotte and was dominant from the jump, starting immediately as a freshman. He was an All-American and didn't allow a single sack in his final three years. He also played basketball and was on the track and field team in high school, proving to be a terrific athlete. He was the 24th overall pick in 2015 After playing three years at Florida, Humphries declared for the NFL draft and was viewed as a first-round prospect. He landed with the Cardinals at No. 24 overall, the sixth lineman drafted that year. He's one of 12 players drafted in the first round of the 2015 draft to make a Pro Bowl in his career. He was the only first-round rookie to be inactive for every game in 2015 Humphries' NFL career got off to a rough start. He struggled in practice and the preseason, leading to him essentially redshirting as a rookie. Head coach Bruce Arians made him inactive for all 16 games during his rookie year, as well as the Cardinals' two playoff games. No other first-round rookie in 2015 was inactive for every game. He agreed to a contract with the 49ers in April but never signed Humphries was a free agent this offseason after his contract with the Chiefs expired and he appeared to be headed for a stint with the 49ers. He agreed to a one-year deal with San Francisco in April but he never signed it, causing the pact to fall through. Humphries had to wait a little while to find a new team to sign with but he's since landed with Los Angeles. 2024 was his first season with a PFF grade below 62.5 Humphries made his first and only Pro Bowl in 2021 but statistically, his best season was in 2020 when he allowed just three sacks in 695 pass-blocking snaps and earned a career-high 88.3 grade from PFF. He's been fairly consistent throughout his time in the NFL, finishing all but one season with a grade of at least 64.5; the lone exception was in 2024 with the Chiefs when he played just 92 snaps.
