Did Omar Khan make the right move standing pat? KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show. Bob said it's tough to gauge if Aaron Rodgers will be back again.

Cleveland Browns assistant general manager Catherine Hickman made a fool of herself during a press conference. On this episode of “Fearless,” Jason Whitlock reveals why Hickman is totally unqualified for her job, how DEI propelled her to the top, and why Hickman's embarrassing performance at the media briefing put the delusion of gender equality on full display. Whitlock also weighs in on Johnny Manziel saying he will hate the Cleveland Browns “forever”; Deion Sanders doubling down on his questionable use of time-outs in the Colorado Buffaloes' loss to the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets; Malcolm Gladwell backing down from statements he made about trans athletes participating in women's sports; the origins of the beef between Ray Lewis and Shannon Sharpe; and how so much controversy is contrived through Twitter, which drives cowardice. Later on, Whitlock unpacks comments Mike Tirico made about University of Syracuse students wanting a celebrity career akin to Stephen A. Smith, rather than a “meat-and-potatoes” reporting job like Bob Costas had. Another eclectic, entertaining, and enlightening show today! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
