The 2023 NFL offseason has once again enabled athletes to notch up their preparations for the upcoming season. As franchises continue buffing up their rosters, most NFL players are busy getting back into their groove and Aaron Rodgers seems to be one of them. Following his departure from Green Bay, Rodgers is on a mission to get back to the same level of relevance he once was. With Rodgers spending a ton of his time in the gym, one of his former Packers running mate is busy honing a different skill set.

While Rodgers and his road to muscles incited a funny response from his former teammate David Bakhtiari, something similar should be expected of the feathers Aaron Jones has been ruffling in the American Cornhole League.

However, Jones is not the only professional athlete to have secured himself a spot in the championships. The Vikings running back Alexander Mattison and Bills’ defensive tackle Tim Settle Jr. are also in the running. MLB juggernaut Justin Turner is an equally significant threat to Jones’ ambitions of winning it all. But thankfully, Jones’ partner has enough experience in these circuits and the duo can fall back on their wits in the face of adversity.

The sports world often sees some generational talents transition to the big stage, but seldom do any have the story that Yetty Irwan does. Up until 2019, Irwan was doing marvels in the fields of science, honing her profession as a scientist. However, her now husband Harry Stoltzfus moved back to Colorado with her in 2017 and thus began a chapter of her life that Irwan never imagined. A cornhole court in the basement was her introduction to the sport and soon Irwan started joining him during practice sessions. The two soon formed a partnership for the ages, as Irwan’s husband convinced her to be his pro doubles partner for the 2019-2020 season. Since then, Irwan has been a mammoth in the ACL circuits, and Aaron Jones seems to be her most recent protégé.
