It’s been only six months since the Bills safety nearly died on the field.

Let me summarize how popular Aaron Rodgers was during Wednesday’s practice round of the American Century Championship, where athletes and celebrities go to show off their golf game.
Brian Baumgartner, who played Kevin Malone in the extremely popular sitcom “The Office”, at one point jokingly said “no pictures” while fans rushed past him to chase Rodgers for autographs. And don’t feel bad for Baumgartner. He got his moment when fans asked him to sign pictures of his infamous “Office” scene of him dropping a large pot of chili.

MLB players shared their thoughts on the highest praise they’ve received during their careers.

Lakers superstar LeBron James was recognized at the ESPYs on Wednesday for breaking the NBA’s all-time scoring record. During his acceptance speech, the 38-year-old addressed the speculation about when he would eventually retire from the sport.
In a statement that resulted in applause from the crowd, James informed the audience that luckily, “that day is not today.”
“I don’t care how many more points, or what I can or cannot do on the floor.

With Nissan seemingly shooting its annual round of Heisman House commercials for the ESPN family of networks this fall, college football is just around the corner.
Whether Hall of Fame Oklahoma State running back Barry Sanders will be awake in time for his team’s opener against Central Arkansas remains to be seen.
Baylor quarterback great Robert Griffin III—the 2011 Heisman winner—filmed the 1988 winner snoozing on a couch during the shoot, laughing silently as Sanders dozed off oblivious to the commotion around him.

There was hardly a dry eye in the house when Bills safety Damar Hamlin took the stage at Wednesday’s ESPYs to present the Pat Tillman Award for Service to Buffalo’s training staff.
The Bills training staff conducted CPR on Hamlin on Jan. 2 during the team’s game against the Bengals when he went into cardiac arrest. Hamlin remained in the hospital for over a week before he was released. 
Since the traumatic night, he has since been cleared to return to football activities, and he returned to practice in May.

From Best Team to Best Play, here’s the running list of 2023 ESPY winners.

Thailand’s Superlek Kiatmoo9 is already the reigning ONE Championship flyweight kickboxing titleholder, but he’s hoping to work his way to top status in the sport of muay Thai, as well.
As the current No. 1-ranked contender in ONE Championship’s flyweight muay Thai division, that opportunity may not be too far off. But “The Kicking Machine” isn’t interested in simply waiting around.

Suns forward Kevin Durant has moved firmly into the elder statesman phase of his career.
Once one of the league’s brightest young stars, the future Hall of Famer will be 35 when Phoenix opens its 2023-24 season. He has spanned nearly a generation of players, bridging the league’s defensive-minded mid-2000s with its high-octane present.
With all that experience under his belt, you would think it would be difficult to impress Durant on the court. However, he makes an exception for two players, past and present, as he indicated via Twitter on Wednesday evening.

Pat McAfee was among the presenters at the 2023 ESPYs on Wednesday night, and he had plenty of jokes during his time on stage at the awards show in Los Angeles.
During his monologue, McAfee took the opportunity to have a laugh at the expense of Fox Sports personality Skip Bayless. 
After shouting out Bills safety Damar Hamlin, who was in attendance, McAfee proceeded to roast Bayless for his insensitivity in regard to Hamlin’s cardiac arrest in Week 17 of the regular season.
