The Tampa Bay Bucca- neers had one of the NFL’s most dominant defensive line units in 2020, and their coach is getting some well- deserved recognition.
Kacy Rodgers was named 2020 Defensive Line Coach of the Year by his peers, adding yet another award for the Super Bowl champs following last year’s incredible championship run.
Rodgers returns along with Tampa Bay’s entire starting lineup in 2021, as

they hope to make a repeat run at the Lombardi Trophy.
TOM BRADY CARD
A signed Tom Brady card PACKED with diamonds was just pulled out of a wild box break this week ... and it's got everyone wondering -- is this the greatest TB12 card ever!?
The piece came from a 2020 Flawless NFL box and it's absolutely insane with some experts putting a conser- vative resale price tag of $250,000 on it.
The card -- a 1-of-1 -- fea- tures an image of Brady, the Super Bowl XXXVIII logo, Brady's signature and in- scription ... plus over two dozen REAL diamonds.
It was all pulled thanks to Bryan from Ultimate Box Breaks ... who purchased the $6,000 Panini America box this week and split it 32 ways between collectors.
Willie Mays Announces HBO Documentary On 90th Birthday
WILLIE MAYS
Hall of Fame outfielder Willie Mays is celebrating his 90th birthday on Thurs- day, but that isn't the only rea- son baseball fans are celebrating.
Mays, the oldest living Hall of Famer, will be the sub- ject of a new HBO documen- tary. HBO PR confirmed the announcement.
Mays is widely considered one of the greatest baseball players of all-time. He was a two-time NL MVP, 24-time All Star and a 12 time Golden Glove winner, and he tallied 660 career home runs in MLB.
TARIK COHEN AND HIS TWIN BROTHER, TYRELL

Raleigh police identified the missing man found dead at the Duke Energy substa- tion Sunday morning as the twin brother of Bears run- ning back Tarik Cohen.
Deputies with the Wake County Sheriff's Office re- sponded to the Duke Energy substation near Lead Mine and Six Forks Roads around 9 a.m. after an employee found 25-year-old Tyrell Antar Cohen's body inside the perimeter.
NFL Offering Vaccinated Fans Chance To Win Super Bowl LVI Tickets
Authorities believe Tyrell
Texans In Process Of Moving
On From Deshaun Watson?
Not that anyone needs an incentive to get vaccinated against COVID-19, but the NFL is throwing one into the cause.
The league announced it will offer 50 tickets to Super Bowl LVI at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, Feb. 13, 2022, to fans that have been vacci- nated.
This is a continuation of a cause that has seen more than three million vaccina- tions administered at 21 NFL stadiums and facilities since January.
The NFL previously in- vited 7,500 vaccinated health care workers to Super Bowl LV in Tampa as guests of the league.
It is unclear if Deshaun Watson will play at all in 2021 after he was accused of sexual assault by multiple women from a massage par- lor. And even if he does, it may not be for the Houston Texans.
During an appearance on “SportsCenter” Sunday morning, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported that there is a belief around the NFL that the Texans have begun “slowly moving on” from Watson. Fowler said Hous- ton is very high on rookie quarterback Davis Mills.
The Texans drafted Mills
DESHAUN WATSON
in the third round, so it would be a surprise if he is not on their roster in 2021. They also signed veteran Tyrod Tay- lor earlier in the offseason and are likely planning to go into Week 1 with him as their starter.
The Situation Between
Aaron Rodgers, Packers
Might Be Beyond Repair
The Green Bay Packers still have several weeks to find a way to change Aaron Rodgers’ mind about want- ing a trade, but as of now it does not sound like that is going to happen.
ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported on Sunday’s edition of “SportsCenter” that Rodgers is “dug in” with his trade demand. The Packers are still trying smooth things over with the star quarter- back, but they have not made any progress.
“The Packers are still ac- tively looking for solutions here; they’re trying to keep an open line of communication

with Aaron Rodgers and his agent, Dave Dunn,” Fowler said. “So, no traction in the short term. But many people around the league be- lieve Aaron Rodgers is in- deed ‘dug in,’ and there’s a belief by some that he wants to be out West.”
