Joe Burrow's former teammate thinks NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani's heartfelt 9/11 admission is a lie.
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani recently gave an emotional speech about the tragic events of 9/11 in 2001.
Even 25 years later, the wounds of the tragedy are fresh among the families of the victims. Connecting with the victims, Mamdani claimed that the 'real victim' of the incident was his aunt.
That didn't sit well with Joe Burrow's former teammate Breiden Fehoko, who went off at the NYC Mayor.

The Arizona Cardinals will face the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday in their season opener. While the two teams don't face each other often, there are some familiat faces for both teams.
There are two Chargers players who were Cardinals players previously one on Arizona's roster who used to play for the Chargers.
Jefferson has had such an interesting career. He entered the league in 2013 with the Cardinals as a rookie free agent. He played four seasons for the Cardinals. He is now in his third season with the Chargers after he was retired for a season. In 2025, he had a career-high four interceptions and seven pass breakups.
Tomlinson played for the Cardinals last season. He signed a two-year contract after he was cut by the Cleveland Browns. He played in all 17 games and had 26 tackles, a sack and a tipped pass. He was released in the offseason and signed with the Chargers.
Fehoko is in his second season with the Cardinals and played two years for the Chargers before that. His career-high in catches and yards (six for 106) came in 2024 with the Chargers, and he scored his only NFL touchdown in 2023 with the Chargers.

With just days ahead of a flight to Melbourne, Australia for their season-opening showdown with the Rams, several 49ers stars descended upon St. Francis High School in Mountain View to watch Kyle Shanahan's son play.
George Kittle and his wife Claire, Kyle Juszczyk and his wife Kristin, Christian McCaffrey, Trent Williams and Mac Jones were all in attendance for the first St. Francis game of the season with a field-level view against Manteca High School. Instagram Stories posts by Kristin Juszczyk and Claire Kittle show the pair en route to and in attendance at a high school football game, and the group of 49ers can be seen sitting underneath the scoreboard on the school's livestream of the game.
While there were many games going on across the Bay Area on Friday night, the connection with their coach's family appears to be a big reason why all the 49ers went to the Mountain View private school for a game. Shanahan's son, Carter, is a junior this year who takes after his dad, who was a wide receiver at the University of Texas, and plays the same position for the Lancers. Carter Shanahan was a starter on Friday night as the Lancers beat Manteca, 31-23, and even was the team's primary kick returner.
The 49ers ties at St. Francis run deeper than just the coach's kid, too. Former 49ers quarterback Alex Smith and Hall of Fame defensive lineman Bryant Young were hired as ******* istant coaches for the varsity team over the summer, and both are in their first seasons on the Lancers' staff. And two former St. Francis players are currently with the 49ers: the team signed defensive end Villami "Junior" Fehoko Jr. last week and employs Michael Lauck, a former quarterback at the school, on the 49ers' video team. Other former 49ers stars have also sent their kids to St. Francis in the past, including Hall of Fame safety Ronnie Lott and former head coach Steve Mariucci, and were frequently seen at the school's sporting events.
It isn't the first time the 49ers have made their presence felt on the St. Francis football field, as Shanahan also attended his son's junior varsity game last season after his team's Week 5 dramatic win against the Rams.

Aug. 29—In a high-scoring preseason affair, host Green Bay got four touchdown passes from Kyle McCord, including two in the final four minutes, to nip Arizona 42-38 at Lambeau Field on Friday night and finish 2-1 in the preseason.
McCord, a second-year player out of Syracuse who spent last season on the Philadelphia Eagles' practice squad, completed 22 of 35 passes for 226 yards and no interceptions. He was the only Packers quarterback to see action in a game contested by mostly reserves.
McCord connected with Kisean Johnson on a 28-yard scoring play with 3:19 left before directing a 44-yard scoring drive in the closing seconds. He and Johnson connected again from 10 yards out with 20 seconds left.
J. Michael Sturdivant pulled in six passes for 112 yards and a 29-yard touchdown in the second quarter immediately after a 36-yard connection with McCord. Will Sheppard had a touchdown catch and returned a punt 81 yards to the house for the Packers. Kicker Trey Smack converted two more field goals for a 9-for-9 preseason.
Arizona's Evan Hull rumbled for 107 yards and two touchdowns on 16 carries, while Simi Fehoko produced 94 yards and two touchdowns on five catches.

The San Francisco 49ers are adding reinforcements on their defensive line before their preseason finale vs. the Las Vegas Raiders.
According to KPRC2's Aaron Wilson, the 49ers and edge rusher Jah Joyner agreed to a deal that will bring Joyner to the Bay Area for the final few days of the 49ers' preseason. Joyner tried out for the 49ers on Wednesday. There's no word yet on a corresponding move which the 49ers will have to make to keep their roster at the 90-player limit.
San Francisco is thin at defensive end with Nick Bosa sidelined by knee tendinitis and rookie Romello Height working through an ankle issue. If the 49ers are going to rest players that figure to be key contributors on their 90-man roster, they may be even thinner Thursday night when they take on the Las Vegas Raiders. It wouldn't be a huge surprise if both Keion White and Sam Okuayinonu were among the players not suiting up for the 49ers.
This marks the second defensive end the 49ers have added in the final week of the preseason. They also signed former Dallas Cowboys fourth-round pick Viliami Fehoko. Joyner will get Thursday's game, and then as many as three practices to make his case to stick around as a practice squad candidate.
Joyner is with the UFL's Houston Gamblers after being released by the Dallas Renegades in March. His only NFL experience came last offseason with the Las Vegas Raiders where he landed as an undrafted free agent following the 2025 draft. He was let go at final cuts and never signed to another NFL club.

Former Chargers defensive tackle Breiden Fehoko took to social media to rip the team for being cheap after the devastating injury to center Tyler Biadasz.
Fehoko also criticized the team for their approach to the center position this offseason and for their lack of depth at the position.
"100 million in cap ***** e. You just absolutely wanna be cheap for the position group that matters the most. So many quality free agents were available to build depth. I don't feel sorry for this team," Fehoko said.
In the replies to his original post, Fehoko listed centers he thinks the Chargers would have been better off signing, given the cap ***** e they entered this offseason with.
"Let's see who was all available: Elgton Jenkins, Wyatt Teller, Isaac Seumalo, [Alijah] Vera-Tucker, Braden Smith and [Spencer] Burford," Fehoko wrote.

At some point this season, the Arizona Cardinals seem likely to get rookie Carson Beck some starts. They gave him one on Thursday to start that process.
And if the rest of the preseason goes as well as Thursday did, the push to get the rookie some regular-season starts might happen earlier than expected.
Beck, a third-round pick who was a college star at Georgia and Miami, started for the Cardinals against the Carolina Panthers as the NFL got the preseason started with the Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio. Beck looked good.
He looked quite comfortable as he took the Cardinals on a 96-yard touchdown drive to end the first quarter. The Cardinals were backed up near their own end zone when Beck made a big play. Receiver Jalen Brooks made a nice double move and Beck hit him downfield for a 35-yard gain. Later in the drive he had a nice pass to Brooks over the middle, delivering an accurate throw despite tight coverage for 15 yards. Beck completed a pass to the 1-yard line and then running back Corey Kiners scored the first unofficial touchdown of the NFL season to start the second quarter.
Beck finished the first quarter 8 of 9 for 81 yards. On Beck's first pass of the second quarter, he threw deep to Brooks, who hauled it in for 49 yards. Beck wasn't nervous about pushing the ball downfield, which is a good sign. Then Beck threw a nice fade route for a third-and-goal touchdown to Simi Fehoko.

The WNBA has been mired in controversy lately. Some of it has even turned political. NFL players know that battle all too well, having lived through plenty of off-field discourse themselves.
Yet, the WNBA is dealing with a unique situation, where there's been criticism and disconnect on the subject of transgender people competing in women's sports. Now a former NFL player is calling for action in a way some may not expect.
Some, like popular Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham, don't believe that transgender people should be competing alongside women in athletic events. Of course, not everyone agrees.
One person who does agree with Cunningham's stance is former NFL defensive tackle Breiden Fehoko.
"Let's go WNBA," Fehoko said. "Y'all wanna include everyone, right? minnesotalynx. I see a certified 20/20 award-winning player for you to sign. What's the hold up? Let's go. Put your money where your mouth is. Stand on business. All that shirt wearing it's time to put up or shut up."

When Jacoby Brissett returned to full practice reps earlier this week, following the conclusion of his contract negotiation saga, he immediately elevated the first-team offense. Head coach Mike LaFleur even acknowledged that practice on Friday, July 31 was the best that his group has looked since training camp began.
But two days later, Brissett and the Cardinals' offense took a step backward.
Most notably, Brissett finished the day with two interceptions. Both resulted from poor reads. On the first, he threw directly at cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting, who undercut an out route from Michael Wilson. On the second, he never saw linebacker Cody Simon gaining depth in the flat, where he stepped in front of Marvin Harrison Jr. on another out route.
With Brissett struggling, Harrison finished the day without a single catch on just one target. Wilson caught one ball on his two targets. The lone bright spot for the starting offense was Trey McBride, who caught all six of his targets, including a touchdown during red zone work.
The biggest silver lining, though, came from the backups. Carson Beck had his best day of training camp, with a few standout throws. On one, he layered a perfect pass over a linebacker to hit Simi Fehoko over the middle. On the very next play, he stepped through a muddled pocket to find Xavier Weaver for a touchdown. Later, he went back to Weaver on the goal line, with a well-placed ball where only Weaver could catch it.
