Sheffield Wednesday manager Danny Röhl has shared his and chairman Dejphon Chansiri’s mutual dream of seeing the Owls ascend to the Premier League. Last season, Wednesday narrowly avoided relegation from the Championship on the final day, thanks to a significant turnaround in fortunes following Röhl’s appointment in October. Now, he faces a pivotal summer marked by a substantial rebuild due to numerous player departures.

Röhl, who is ambitious about working at the highest level, has spoken enthusiastically about leading Sheffield Wednesday to the top tier of English football. He emphasized the importance of playing good football, signing quality players, and developing the club incrementally, including improving facilities.

Kenny Pickett impressing the Eagles as he tries to get over Steelers breakup

Kenny Pickett is reportedly off to an impressive start with the Philadelphia Eagles. His departure from the Pittsburgh Steelers, after just a year and a half as their starting quarterback, was abrupt and tinged with disappointment. This past offseason saw significant changes: Russell Wilson joined the Steelers, and Pickett, seeking a fresh start, was traded to the Eagles. In return, the Steelers acquired Justin Fields to strengthen their quarterback lineup.

Although Pickett is not expected to vie for the starting position, he has been making notable plays during practice. Currently, the Eagles and Pickett appear to be enjoying a favorable beginning, much like the Steelers with their new quarterbacks, Wilson and Fields. The Eagles view Pickett as a potentially reliable backup who might one day reclaim a starting role in the NFL. His current performance in OTAs is promising, but consistency remains to be seen.
