Chargers Pro Bowler's ex-wife slams NFL aggregator for framing contract news around their divorce
The ex-wife of Los Angeles Chargers lineman Rashawn Slater took issue with how one NFL social media aggregator framed the announcement of his contract extension. Slater agreed to a four-year contract extension with the Chargers on Sunday, reportedly worth up to $144 million with a $29 million signing bonus. It made him the highest-paid lineman in NFL history. The NFL aggregator known on social media as Dov Kleiman wrote on X that Slater had "finalized a divorce from his wife recently" and that the contract extension was "good timing." Stassney Brown, Slater's ex-wife, reacted to the post on X. "This is deplorable. I hold nothing but support for Rashawn," she wrote on X. "His contract is not about me. "I think we should focus on what's most important here, and that is his career and his success. Please stop including me in this narrative. He deserves his moment." It was Brown's first activity on her X account in a while. She and Slater were married in 2022 and finalized a divorce recently, though the exact timing was unclear. The Kleiman account didn't respond to Brown's post. Los Angeles selected Slater with the No. 13 overall pick of the 2021 draft. He began to pay dividends almost immediately as he was a Pro Bowler in his rookie year. He only played three games in 2022 due to injury but bounced back in 2023 and 2024. He was a Pro Bowler for the second time last season.

Ex-wife of Los Angeles Chargers star Rashawn Slater blasts reporter over 'deplorable' divorce comment
The ex-wife of Los Angeles Chargers star Rashawn Slater, Stassney Brown, has blasted NFL reporter Dov Kleiman over his 'deplorable' comment about the couple's recent divorce. Brown and Slater have gone their separate ways, with the split being publicized at the same time the offensive lineman's new contract was signed. The 26-year-old is reportedly set to sign a four-year, $114 million contract extension that includes a record $92 million guaranteed. The deal is set to make Slater the highest-paid offensive lineman in NFL history. Kleiman mostly reported the facts, with the divorce caveat before finishing his social media message - 'talk about good timing.' Brown has retorted to Kleiman, defending her ex-husband despite no longer being together. 'This is deplorable. I hold nothing but support for Rashawn,' Brown said on X. 'His contract is not about me. I think we should focus on what's most important here, and that is his career and his success. Please stop including me in this narrative. He deserves his moment.' Kleiman responded quickly to Brown's claim, with details of the timeline for the divorce not being publicized alongside his comments. 'It wasn't about you. It was about Rashawn keeping the money that he worked hard for. I didn't mention your name. So you decide to draw more attention to yourself? But also claiming he deserves his moment,' Kleiman said. NFL fans have blasted Kleiman for his comments, saying he is 'gaslighting' Brown and others by stating his intentions, yet including her photo in multiple messages about Slater. The Chargers and Slater's representatives, CAA Football, have reportedly been hammering out the deal for weeks. Slater was set to enter the final year on his current contract but is now tied to Los Angeles until 2029. Selected by the Chargers with the 13th overall pick in 2021, Slater has already earned two Pro-Bowl nods over his four-year NFL career. He was limited to three games in 2022 because of a ruptured biceps, but has otherwise been a permanent fixture on the Bolts' offensive line.

Incredible moment brave NFL star hops into thick mud to rescue stranded driver
Carolina Panthers second-year wide receiver Xavier Legette was able to help a friend out who was stuck in a rough spot while off-roading in the off-season. Legette, who was born and raised riding horses and living in the backcountry of South Carolina, was seen in a video trying to help someone whose ATV was submerged in some deep mud. The vehicle was stuck in the mud and trying to get it out was made especially tough because of the running water around it. After taking some valuables from his friend to make sure they didn't get damaged, Legette offered some advice on trying to get the ATV out. While the friend took the suggestions, it was clear that he wasn't able to get it out on his own. So, Legette decided to get down and dirty - stepping into the mud to help lift the front end of the ATV out of the mud. WARNING: VIDEO BELOW CONTAINS EXPLICIT LANGUAGE Insane: Xavier Legette rescued a man on an ATV that was stuck in the mud 😭😭 He didn't even hesitate for a second to hop in the mud Legette is a role model on and off the field. — Dov Kleiman (@NFL_DovKleiman) June 30, 2025 Xavier Legette got dirty while trying to help out a friend who was stuck in the mud The video cuts off before we see if Legette and his friend were able to get the vehicle out. Legette has shown that he isn't averse to getting some dirt on him after being the NFL's trackside correspondent at the Kentucky Derby earlier this year. It also appears that the Panthers pass catcher is romantically linked with an up-and-coming rapper. GloRilla's latest music video for the song 'Typa' dropped on Friday morning, with Legette getting very close with his on-camera partner. How comfortable the duo looked on screen have made the pair appear to be an item, including a scene in a bedroom where GloRilla is in a white bra and Legette enters shirtless and in a towel. Legette, 24, has not been connected with anyone romantically since entering the NFL last year as a first-round draft pick.
