After longtime Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger went down with an injury, he was replaced by Mason Rudolph. The backup did a decent job before being pulled in last week’s game.

The week prior, Rudolph was smashed on the head with his own helmet by Cleveland Browns defensive lineman Myles Garrett. Of course, Rudolph started the kerfuffle by attempting to remove Garrett’s helmet after he was sacked – but that fact seems to get lost in the shuffle.

New Steelers QB Devlin Hodges is already catching heat and he hasn’t even thrown a pass. And it’s all because he a supporter of President Trump.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Devlin Hodges got the good news that he will start in Sunday’s game, but the announcement also brought renewed attacks on his past support of President Trump.

In his weekly press conference, Coach Tomlin announced that Devlin Hodges would start at quarterback versus the Cleveland Browns on Sunday.

Reactions from both sides:

Another example of liberal bullying. Your behavior is going to come back to haunt you. So you’re going to just label him, without knowing him, because he supports Trump. I think you’re the one who needs to do a self check. What you said, is Grade A bigotry

It’s ridiculous that a guy who has defied the odds and earned a spot to be a STARTING NFL QUARTERBACK can’t even enjoy the news for an hour before people try to attack his character because of tweets that aren’t even out of pocket. Keep slinging them @DevlinHodges10

Hating America has seemingly never been cooler than it is today. It is really sad to see how so many people don’t understand how good they have it, and would rather cause violence and disruption instead of making the nation an even better place. Here’s some of what went down in DC on Independence Day, via TDW: Far-left activists trampled on an American flag in Washington, D.C., on the nation’s 244th birthday.

The activist group wants the DC police department defunded, prison and jails dismantled, and stop and frisk tactics ended — all initiatives they say Mayor Bowser hasn’t invested in.

The NFL is set to play the “Black National Anthem” before all week one games kickoff this upcoming season. The NBA has already said it will paint “Black Lives Matter” on courts. But they’re not stopping there. Check this out, per ESPN: The National Basketball Players Association and the NBA reached an agreement Friday on social justice messages that can be displayed above the numbers on the backs of jerseys when the league resumes play July 30, a source told ESPN’s The Undefeated. The list of the suggested social messages that were agreed upon by the NBPA and the NBA and then made available to players via email, per the source, are: Black Lives Matter; Say Their Names; Vote; I Can’t Breathe; Justice; Peace; Equality; Freedom; Enough; Power to the People; Justice Now; Say Her Name; Sí Se Puede (Yes We Can); Liberation; See Us; Hear Us; Respect Us; Love Us; Listen; Listen to Us; Stand Up; Ally; Anti-Racist; I Am A Man; Speak Up; How Many More; Group Economics; Education Reform; and Mentor. […] After the first four nights, a player can simply go back to their last name. If they choose to continue showing a social message, their name would go below the number. Check out the thoughts of this former ESPN reporter on the George Floyd rioters and looters, via Sporting News: Palmer was offering his thoughts on the protests across the United States in the wake of George Floyd’s death. On Thursday night, Palmer quote-tweeted a photo of a burning building with the caption, “Burn that s— down. Burn it all down.” But shortly after midnight on Sunday, Palmer had a change of tone once protesters showed up closer to where he lived. Here’s Palmer’s deleted tweet: And here’s the follow-up (screenshotted, in case he deletes…
