Aaron Rodgers is pushing the NFL to go bigger on international football, calling for a full dedicated week of global games — and while he was at it, he took a shot at ownership, suggesting the league's billionaire class talks player safety but doesn't always back it up with action. Classic Rodgers, never just one headline.
Shifting to baseball, Francisco Lindor has been named the two thousand twenty six Roberto Clemente Award winner, and it is well earned. The Mets shortstop and five-time All-Star has built a reputation that goes well beyond what he does at shortstop — his community work and character have made him one of the game's most respected figures on and off the field.
And in Green Bay, the Packers are dealing with a serious concern after their loss to Detroit. One of their defensive leaders has revealed he's playing through a fracture in his leg, which raises real questions heading into Thursday night against Carolina. Green Bay needs answers fast — that's a short week with a lot riding on it.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
