3 & Out - Aaron Rodgers FLYING to Steelers, Netflix LANDS Rams-49ers, Seahawks Sale RUMORS + Fugazi Friday
5/8/202650 min
On this episode of 3 & Out, John Middlekauff reacts to reports that Aaron Rodgers is expected to re-sign with the Pittsburgh Steelers and is flying to Pittsburgh for the weekend. What does it mean for the Steelers’ outlook and why does this pairing continue to make sense?
John also discusses Netflix airing the Week 1 Thursday night matchup between the Rams and 49ers from Australia, another major step in the NFL’s evolving media landscape.
The conversation then shifts to the business side of the league, as Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and billionaire 49ers minority owner Vinod Khosla are reportedly interested in Seahawks ownership. John breaks down what high-profile ownership groups could mean for the future of the franchise.
Plus, the Colts’ behind-the-scenes draft video gets rave reviews, and John explains why he thought it was absolutely badass. He also weighs in on why celebrity boxing matches—like Bob Menery vs. Johnny Manziel—can sometimes be more entertaining than UFC cards.
To wrap things up, Fugazi Friday returns with reactions to the Dianna Russini and Mike Vrabel boat video and more stories from around the sports world.
