Skimboarder Gets Super Rad

To the extent that there has been any joy to be found in the NFL this year, it was Aaron Rodgers that delivered it.

When Browns head coach Hue Jackson announced that he was benching rookie quarterback DeShone Kizer last week, it seemed like he had a decent plan in mind.
