The Arena: Gridiron

Will Aaron Rodgers be back with the #Steelers in 2026?

“He’s gonna be Cooper DeJean for the Cowboys” @AqibTalib21 and @RealSkipBayless continue to disagree about the Caleb Downs pick

Don’t tell Skip Michael Irvin acted a fool during the season 😂

Why were the Rams so hell-bent on keeping their interest in Ty Simpson a secret? 🤔

Will Aaron Rodgers start for the Steelers in 2026? "I do think he will be the starting QB for the Steelers, and I do think it will, yet again, be a mistake. He's WASHED." @RealSkipBayless

Skip Bayless does not understand how Caleb Downs was ranked the BEST defensive player in the Draft 👀 "10 times teams said no to Caleb Downs. If he's the best defensive player in the Draft...10 times!."

The Arena debates whether George Pickens is worth it for Dallas despite the alleged character concerns 🤔 "Mike Tomlin said no to him! He said more trouble than worth." @RealSkipBayless

Cody Kessler believes Sean McVay was definitely involved in the Ty Simpson draft pick 👀 "There's NO WAY that Les Snead is going to spend a 1st rd pick without having Mcvay being heavily involved. The reason that he didn't seem overly excited was out of respect for Stafford."

Skip Bayless addresses Shilo Sanders post about Browns reporter Mary Kay Cabot.

Big debate in The Arena over how the Browns should handle the Deshaun/Shedeur situation 🤔 "It's hard to have a guy making $46 million being a backup." @KenyonMartinSr

Skip Bayless believes the reports that Deshaun Watson is on track to start over Shedeur Sanders are true 👀

We are BACK in The Arena to round out the week 🚨🏟️ 📌Deshaun has "inside track" to start over Shedeur 📌Pickens finally signs Franchise tender 📌What will Steelers do at Quarterback? WATCH LIVE youtube.com/live/YSfgS4Q3e… TWITCH twitch.tv/team/underdoga…

“They had the most confusing draft.” The Arena was NOT high on the Rams draft class.

The Arena discusses the Makai Lemon-Micah Parsons interview drama.

Which NFC East team improved the most after the draft?

The Arena was BAFFLED by the Rams Draft 😬 "The harder I look at the Rams Draft the worse it gets. They were the betting favorite to win the SB before the NFL Draft, and they had the 13th pick! You could've been the prohibited favorite." @RealSkipBayless

Skip thinks Aqib's Broncos should FEAR the Chiefs next season 👀 "He won't admit this but deep down, he fears the Kansas City Chiefs. I hear it in your voice. Mahomes is still here, Big Red is still there, Spags is still there, and you fear them."

Cody Kessler is extremely bullish on the New York Giants after their Draft 👀 "I think they found 4 starters in this Draft. I think the Giants can potentially get to 10 wins. They have a lot of young core pieces in place on both sides of the football." @CodyKessler6
