Draft & Prospects#

The former defensive tackle’s three boys took the mic to remind everyone that they were born and raised in Baltimore with one core principle: “Steelers suck”.

The blockbuster move of the offseason continues to make waves, with Andrew Whitworth sharing his thoughts on the NFL Network’s What does Andrew Whitworth think about Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams | GMFB. Whitworth highlighted how Garrett’s consistency and day-to-day work ethic will fill the leadership void left by Aaron Donald, providing an infectious example for the young Rams locker room to follow. Whitworth also touched on his former team, the Cincinnati Bengals, noting that recent offseason trades have built up a defense to finally match Joe Burrow’s loaded offense. He believes the Bengals are pushing all their chips to the middle of the table for a stable, all-in run at the AFC North crown this year.
