Myles Garrett on Aaron Rodgers: 'Good opportunity to put him in the graveyard'
Quarterback and four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers is officially a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers. A player that he'll be seeing at least twice next year, Cleveland Browns superstar defensive end Myles Garrett, is pumped — but probably not for the same reason that Rodgers is. "I think it's a good opportunity to put him in the graveyard," Garrett responded on Tuesday when asked what his reaction was to Rodgers signing with the Steelers, according to ESPN. So, there's that. In 2021, it was revealed that Garrett had a Halloween-themed graveyard on his front lawn of all the quarterbacks he had sacked or was planning to take down. After originally requesting a trade in February, Garrett, a four-time All-Pro and six-time Pro Bowler, signed a four-year, $160 million extension ($123.5 million guaranteed) with the Browns, with his $40 million average annual salary breaking the NFL record for a defensive player. Last season, Garrett totaled 14.0 sacks, an NFL-high 22 tackles for loss, three forced fumbles and 47 combined tackles. He ranked second among edge defenders in pass-rush grade (92.8) and overall grade (92.3) and 11th in run-defense grade (78.4), according to Pro Football Focus. It marked the second consecutive season that Garrett registered double-digit sacks. As for Garrett's chances of putting Rodgers in the dirt, the defensive end has 13.0 sacks and four forced fumbles in 14 career games against the AFC North-rival Steelers. Garrett has faced off against Rodgers once, with the veteran quarterback's then-Green Bay Packers getting a 24-22 win at home on Christmas Day in the 2021 season. Garrett finished with one combined tackle. Pittsburgh inked the 41-year-old Rodgers to a base one-year, $13.7 million deal earlier this month. He was released by the New York Jets after two seasons in March. Last season, Rodgers totaled 3,897 passing yards, 28 passing touchdowns, 11 interceptions and a 90.5 passer rating, while completing 63.0% of his passes in a 5-12 season for New York. Garrett's first chance to end Rodgers once and for all will be on Oct. 12, when Pittsburgh hosts Cleveland. The two teams split their 2024 regular-season series, with them each winning on their respective home turf. Want great stories delivered right to your inbox?

Aaron Rodgers is off the free agent and dating markets. Steelers QB says he recently got married
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Aaron Rodgers added another ring to his collection before he even signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The four-time NFL MVP quarterback and Super Bowl champion said Tuesday after his first practice with the Steelers that he got married 'a couple months ago.' Rodgers was spotted wearing a ring on his left ring finger in a photo the Steelers shared after the 41-year-old signed a one-year deal to join the team for the 2025 season. When asked if the ring was an indication he was married, Rodgers replied, 'Yeah, it's a wedding ring.' He wore the ring on Tuesday while participating in drills with his new team. Rodgers has revealed little about his bride. During an appearance on 'The Pat McAfee Show' last fall, he mentioned he was dating a woman named Brittani but offered no other details. His previous dating history includes long-term relationships with race car driver Danica Patrick and actors Olivia Munn and Shailene Woodley. ___ AP NFL:

Red Sox Share Rafael Devers Injury News After Rays Game
Red Sox Share Rafael Devers Injury News After Rays Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. If not for New York Yankees superstar Aaron Judge and his team's mediocre season, it feels safe to say that Boston Red Sox slugger Rafael Devers would be a dark horse AL MVP candidate. Advertisement Alas, Judge exists, and Devers has a new problem beyond Boston's 32-36 record. Red Sox manager Alex Cora implied that Devers is battling an undisclosed injury, one that contributed to him slowing down while running out a ground ball against the New York Yankees on Sunday. Cora did not disclose what is bothering Devers, who has played all 68 games for the fourth-place Red Sox. 'He plays every day; obviously, he's a DH, and there's certain things—nothing major—but stuff that we have to pay attention to,' Cora said after Monday's 11-inning loss to the Tampa Bay Rays. Devers went 0-for-3 with three walks on Monday night. Cora said the Red Sox training staff said any issue that Devers has is 'nothing major.' Advertisement 'It's something that we can actually handle, and he'll be playing,' Cora reiterated. Boston Red Sox designated hitter Rafael DeversKen Blaze-Imagn Images The Red Sox had not announced Tuesday's lineup as of publication. After beginning the season in a historic 0-for-21 slump, Devers has been among baseball's hottest hitters in recent weeks. The three-time All-Star is batting .328 with nine home runs, 38 RBI, and a stellar 1.047 OPS since May 1. Devers owns a 30-30 K-BB ratio in his last 166 plate appearances, though the Red Sox are only 15-21 in that span.
