Aaron Rodgers is still capable of being a high-level NFL quarterback

Yeah, I mean he can still do it for sure... being around him, just seeing how he, again, how he operated, how he practiced. I mean, the guy the guy has, you know, been playing for 20 some years and still every day of practice like treating it, it's like it's a game.

This is a professional athlete's evaluation of a peer.

The Panthers' disastrous 2-15 season in 2023 was the best thing that ever happened to me.

I believe not only was it probably the best thing that ever happened to me, just learning how to deal with adversity, learning how to be a leader through major storms... but I think for, Bryce [Young], a lot of the young guys, maybe some of the coaches that we still have around... it's probably the best thing that ever happened to us.

Whether the 2023 failure leads to future success is subjective and depends on how the Panthers develop in the coming years.

I will be the fastest I've ever been in the NFL this season at age 33

I want to be the fastest I've ever been. So my goal is to lean out, to be as fast as I've ever been. Top end speed, change the direction, and I truly, I think I can do it. I feel great right now... My goal is to be as fast and explosive as I possibly can.

Adam Thielen's claim about being the fastest he's ever been at age 33 is unverifiable without specific speed measurements. Thielen played in 15 games for the Panthers in 2024 with modest stats.

Kirk Cousins is the most process-driven person I've ever been around

That guy is the most process driven person I've ever been around in my life. It is unbelievable. He does not leave any stone unturned. He does ne he, I mean, he will never not be prepared for a game... he's putting every ounce of time, effort, money into having the most success as a team.

Kirk Cousins' infamous foil-wrapped grilled steak looked terrible.

I saw the pictures. I feel like this was like maybe four or five years ago when he posted on, and I'm, I texted him immediately. I'm like, what, what is that? ... but it looked terrible.

The steak is widely considered a culinary crime by anyone who has seen the photo.

The trend of quarterbacks buying massive gifts for their offensive linemen is overblown and awkward.

I just feel like that that whole bit has gotten like way overblown and now has made it like super awkward for the quarterbacks because now I feel like the o linemen are like expecting like this like grand prize... no I've, I have not bought a quarterback a gift. Maybe I should, but, but yeah, it's, it's kind of a weird awkward thing.

This is a subjective take on NFL locker room culture.

I average 330 yards on my drives on the golf course.

I hit about three 30. [Big Cat: Jesus.] And again, like that's always been my strength.

Thielen is known to be a scratch golfer with high swing speed; this distance is plausible for a professional athlete golfer.

Patrick Mahomes is not the biggest threat on the celebrity golf circuit

I don't think Patrick Mahomes is the biggest threat on the golf course. Oh, okay. On the football field obviously is the biggest, but golf course I think a little different... I know he does have like a real golf hole in his backyard... I just don't see him winning it.

Mahomes finished T82 in the 2024 American Century Championship, while Mardy Fish won. Thielen's assessment was accurate.
