🏈 Jeremy Fowler of ESPN believes Kirk Cousins is on the Pittsburgh Steelers radar.

“I had some conversations with people this week that led me to believe that Cousins is, at the very least, on the Steelers’ radar if something were to fall through on Rodgers,” Fowler said. “Cousins has $37.5 million in guarantees between this year and next year. Somebody’s on the hook for that money, whether it’s $4 million, $20 million, whatever it is. But the feeling around the league is that Atlanta has not been willing to budge on this. They haven’t shown a lot of interest in trading Cousins. It would take a hefty price tag for another team to wiggle that out.”

🏈 Colin Cowherd of FS1 thinks Aaron Rodgers doesn’t believe the Steelers are a good fit.

“The Steelers are a shaky fit, and Aaron knows it,” Cowherd said on The Herd. “He doesn’t wanna offend Mike Tomlin. It may be, if he wants to play, his best spot. But they can’t figure out offense. I’ve gone over this a million times. They’re tone deaf to offense. I think they’re now making moves just to make moves. I just think Aaron is too smart to think the Steelers are a good fit.”

🏈 Gregg Rosenthal of NFL.com believes Omar Khan is not a top 10 general manager in the NFL.

“The quarterback position obviously is a huge negative, and so he pays for that. If it wasn’t for the quarterback, if he had traded for Geno Smith a couple of years ago or something. If they had fixed the quarterback position to an above-average level a couple of years ago, he’d probably be in my top 10, but that’s a pretty big knock on the team,” Rosenthal said on his podcast NFL Daily.

🏈 “Duck Dynasty” star and former Louisiana Tech quarterback Phil Robertson passed away on Sunday. He was 79. Robertson was teammates with Terry Bradshaw at LA Tech.

Bradshaw once remarked about Robertson’s love of hunting, saying “… Phil Robertson, loved hunting more than he loved football. He’d come to practice directly from the woods, squirrel tails hanging out of his pockets, duck feathers on his clothes. Clearly he was a fine shot, so no one complained too much.”
