UNITED STATES

Davante Adams’ reunion with Aaron Rodgers was spoiled by the debut of Russell Wilson, who led his Pittsburgh Steelers to a 37-15 victory over the New York Jets on “Sunday Night Football.”While all the hype surrounded Adams reuniting with Rodgers, his old Green Bay Packers quarterback, following a trade from the Las Vegas Raiders earlier this week, Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin made the switch at quarterback to Wilson over Justin Fields, seeing if the veteran Super Bowl champion could lead his offense the way he wanted to see it. And while Wilson had to shake some rust off, the Steelers’ offensive engine steamrolled a good Jets defense with a brilliant performance from its signal caller. CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMWilson threw for 264 yards on 16-of-29 through the air with two passing touchdowns, one to his top target on the night, George Pickens, and another to Van Jefferson. Meanwhile, Steelers running back Najee Harris led a formidable ground game with 102 yards on 21 carries with a touchdown at the end of the game to cap an incredible night for Pittsburgh, as they moved to 5-2 on the year.It was everything Steelers fans wanted to see with Wilson taking over at quarterback, but Jets fans were not expecting what they watched unfold on Sunday night. DONALD TRUMP LEADS RAUCOUS ‘U-S-A!’ CHANT FROM SUITE AT STEELERS-JETS GAMEIt’s not usual for a team to be in win-now mode after a 2-4 start to the season, but the Jets made the move for Adams, following the firing of head coach Robert Saleh, to give Rodgers yet another elite weapon to work with on offense. But that dream connection that wreaked havoc on defenses for years in Green Bay was not seen immediately in Adams’ debut, as he caught just three of his nine targets from Rodgers for 30 yards. There is certainly rust that needs to be shook off between these two, but it did the Jets no favors in this matchup that Jets fans were hoping sparked a run. Now, at 2-5, Rodgers and the Jets find themselves digging the hole a little deeper with its fourth straight loss this season. New York did have a good start to this game, though, thanks to the work of Breece Hall, the Jets’ star running back who has gotten going these past two games despite the result on the record. He led the Jets in receiving – yes, receiving – on Sunday night with 103 yards on six catches, including a 57-yard catch-and-run that almost resulted in a touchdown. He did score on the ground for the first touchdown of this game as the Jets got off to a 7-3 first-quarter lead. But the second half belonged to Wilson and the Steelers, who put up 24 unanswered points to pull away from Gang Green in this one. STEELERS ADD SECURITY MEASURES FOR TRUMP’S ATTENDANCE AT GAME AGAINST AARON RODGERS’ JETSWith former president Donald Trump in attendance, alongside ex-Steelers stars Antonio Brown and Le’Veon Bell, Wilson barreled in a quarterback sneak from one yard out after Ben Bishop returned an interception that bounced off the chest of Jets receiver Garrett Wilson to New York’s one-yard line. That put the Steelers up 23-15 after Chris Boswell hit home a field goal to take the lead back earlier in the third quarter. Then, a blocked field goal for the Jets sparked another Steelers touchdown drive, as Wilson found Jefferson from four yards out on third-and-goal to start running away. The Jets would turn the ball over on downs as Rodgers desperately tried to get a touchdown drive to get back in the game. But it was all for naught, with Harris’s touchdown sending the Acrisure Stadium crowd into a frenzy with victory sealed. As the Jets get back to the drawing board with a road trip to New England next week, Wilson appears to have earned himself at least another week after successfully leading his Steelers to a big win at home. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

Vice President Kamala Harris has gone 92 days as the presumptive, and now, official Democratic nominee for president without holding an official press conference. Trump has held six news conferences where he took questions from the media since the beginning of August, including another this month after meeting with Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp about hurricane relief efforts.President Biden also held a news conference in the White House press briefing room earlier this month, where he joked about getting back into the 2024 race.Harris did end her streak of not appearing on Fox News on Wednesday, however, sitting for an interview in Pennsylvania with chief political anchor Bret Baier.KAMALA HARRIS ASSERTS HER PRESIDENCY ‘WILL NOT BE A CONTINUATION’ OF BIDEN’SHarris has stepped up her interviews in recent weeks, including doing radio hits, a solo sit-down with a Philadelphia TV station, and friendly appearances with “The View,” Stephen Colbert and Howard Stern.But as for when she’ll actually do a formal press conference as a candidate, that day may never come, at least while she’s still a candidate.Conservative Radio Libre host Jorge Bonilla feels Harris should do a press conference but said it’s almost “irrelevant” because she continues to get a pass. HARRIS DODGES QUESTION ON LOWERING PRICES BY DESCRIBING ‘MIDDLE-CLASS’ ROOTS: NEIGHBORS ‘PROUD OF THEIR LAWN’”She is highly unlikely to do a press conference because the media have enabled and encouraged her ‘plexiglass basement’ strategy, wherein she preserves the illusion of being out there while remaining wholly inaccessible to the press and therefore unaccountable,” Bonilla told Fox News Digital.Trump has skipped several potential interviews in recent days, but he showed up at the annual Al Smith dinner that has historically featured the presidential candidates doing lighthearted roasts. Harris decided not to attend, sending a video message instead.BARBARA WALTERS WOULD EXPECT KAMALA HARRIS TO DO INTERVIEWS, AUTHOR SAYS: ‘PART OF THE JOB OF BEING PRESIDENT'”You know, I grew up in a neighborhood of folks who were very proud of their lawn,” she said. “And I was raised to believe and to know that all people deserve dignity, and that we as Americans have a beautiful character. You know, we have ambitions and aspirations and dreams, but not everyone necessarily has access to the resources that can help them fuel those dreams and ambitions. “So when I talk about building an opportunity economy, it is very much with the mind of investing in the ambitions and aspirations and the incredible work ethic of the American people and creating opportunity for people, for example, to start a small business.”Fox News Digital’s Paul Steinhauser contributed to this report.

After a rally in Latrobe on Saturday, Donald Trump remained in Pennsylvania on Sunday to take in a primetime NFL matchup with the New York Jets visiting the Pittsburgh Steelers at Acrisure Stadium on Sunday night. And when Steelers fans spotted the 45th President of the United States, a loud “U-S-A!” chant filled the stadium. Trump’s Deputy Director of Communications, Margo Martin, shared the video on X of Trump pumping his fist, egging the Steelers fans below on as they chanted. Trump was spotted waving to fans as well. CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMFormer Steelers star wide receiver Antonio Brown, who spoke at the Latrobe rally and endorsed Trump publicly ahead of this year’s presidential election, was waiting for the Republican candidate on the tarmac ahead of the game. Brown was spotted outside with Steelers fans before the game, launching yellow and black rally towels with “Trump/Vance” written across them. He was decked out in MAGA gear just as he was on Saturday at the rally. STEELERS LEGENDS ENDORSE KAMALA HARRIS AHEAD OF TRUMP’S APPEARANCE AT GAME VS JETSBrown and his ex-Steelers teammate Le’Veon Bell, who also spoke at the rally, were both expected to be alongside Trump at the game, which was garnering loads of national attention in this week’s NFL action. While it is a Steelers home game, the Jets made massive trade news leading up to this contest as Aaron Rodgers reunites with his old Green Bay Packers receiver, Davante Adams, who was sent over from the Las Vegas Raiders after requesting a trade out of Sin City. But Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin also made a switch to quarterback, as Russell Wilson made his debut with Pittsburgh on Sunday night as well. If that national attention wasn’t enough, the Steelers knew they had to reinforce its security protocols with Trump expected to make his appearance, telling fans to arrive earlier to parking lots and the game to ensure they have a good fan experience. “With former President Trump expected to attend Sunday night’s game as a guest of an individual suite holder, we are working with Secret Service and local authorities to ensure the safety and security of all our fans,” the statement said. “As always, we will work to make the fan experience the same as it always is for every Steelers home game at Acrisure Stadium. “We encourage fans to arrive early to the parking lots and to the gates so that they can enjoy our pregame experience and our celebrations throughout the game that will honor the 50th anniversary of our Super Bowl IX team.”STEELERS ADD SECURITY MEASURES FOR TRUMP’S ATTENDANCE AT GAME AGAINST AARON RODGERS’ JETSTrump is no stranger to enjoying some football, as he recently made the trip to Tuscaloosa, Alabama for a Crimson Tide matchup against the Georgia Bulldogs on Sept. 28. And he was also met with “U-S-A!” chants from college football fans when he was spotted at Bryant-Denny Stadium. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

An attendee at Sen. JD Vance’s Wisconsin rally shouted “Jesus is King!” during his speech on Sunday afternoon, with Vance echoing the attendee and repeating the same phrase – a different approach than Vice President Kamala Harris seemed to take last week. Vance shared that, while he doesn’t talk about his faith often, he returned to his faith as a young man and is a devout Christian. He said he was baptized in 2019.”I say this as a Christian, as a person who was baptized for the first time just a few years ago. There is something really bizarre with Kamala Harris’ anti-Christian rhetoric and anti-Christian approach to public policy,” Vance explained.This comes after Vice President Kamala Harris seemingly told two Christian students at her Wisconsin rally last week that they were “at the wrong rally” when they shouted “Jesus is Lord” and “Christ is King.”PRO-LIFE PROTESTERS SPEAK OUT AFTER ALLEGEDLY BEING MOCKED, PUSHED AT HARRIS RALLY: ‘WE DID GOD’S WORK’As he continued speaking about faith and politics, he was interrupted by an attendee who shouted “Jesus is King.” “That’s right. Jesus is King,” Vance responds.Vance then addressed a viral video of Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer wearing a Harris-Walz campaign hat while feeding Doritos to a kneeling podcast host in what some critics said made a mockery of a sacred Christian rite. “I don’t think that we’ve seen anything like this in modern American politics,” Vance said. “Gretchen Whitmer does this really bizarre thing where she acts like she’s given somebody communion, but it’s a Dorito. And of course, Gretchen Whitmer isn’t like a minister of anything except for, you know, a church I don’t necessarily want to talk about, but think about how sacrilegious that is and think about how offensive that is to every person.””Frankly, whether you’re a person of Christian faith or not, Donald Trump and I are going to fight for your right to live your values, because that’s what the First Amendment protects. And I think whether you’re a Christian, a Catholic or any other faith or no faith at all, when you see an American leader, when you see a surrogate of Kamala Harris insulting people of the Christian faith, I think that we should say to every single one of those people, you’re fired. We’re not giving you any more power,” Vance continued.CATHOLICS HOLD ‘ROSARY RALLY’ OUTSIDE GRETCHEN WHITMER’S HOUSE AFTER DORITOS VIDEO SPARKS BACKLASHWhitmer has since apologized for the video and emphasized that the video was not meant to mock people of faith.Vance continued speaking about the support the Trump administration has for religious people, unlike the Harris campaign, he said.”There are a lot of Catholics. So I think rightfully feel abandoned by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’s leadership. And they’re just looking for somebody to protect their rights and make this country an affordable and decent place to raise a family,” Vance said during his rally in Waukesha. “And that’s all I think that’s true of a lot of Catholics. It’s true of non-Catholics, too. But we cannot have an American government that is persecuting Christians for living their faith. We should be rewarding people and encouraging people to live their faith.” Vance’s comments come after two pro-life Wisconsin college students insisted that they were doing “God’s work” by attending Harris’ rally on their university’s campus and shouting pro-life, Christian messages last week. GRETCHEN WHITMER APOLOGIZES FOR DORITOS VIDEO CRITICS SAY MOCKED CHRISTIAN SACRAMENTIn video footage of the rally, the student’s voices are heard shouting the phrases.Harris, pausing her speech, turned her attention to them, and said, “You guys are at the wrong rally.”She continued as the crowd roared, “I think you meant to go to the smaller one down the street” – referring to Trump’s rally.Luke Polaske, a University of Wisconsin-La Crosse junior, shared a vivid account of the incident from his perspective, stating that he and fellow UW-La Crosse junior Grant Beth were approximately 20 to 30 yards away from Harris in the small venue. In detailing the encounter, he described his perceived interaction with the vice president.”There’s a lot of controversy that says she wasn’t talking to us or [that] we left. We didn’t get kicked out. Well, I can speak on Grant and I’s behalf,” Polaske said.”On video, Grant’s getting pushed and shoved, and there’s about five seconds before she tells us to go to a small rally down the street. You can see on the video, she waves. She was actually waving to me. I took this cross off my neck that I wear and, as we were getting asked to leave, I held it up in the air and waved at her and pointed at her, and she looked directly in the eye, kind of gave me an evil smirk.””I just want to clear that up and confirm that she 100% was talking to us.”Fox News Digital reached out to Kamala Harris’ campaign for comment and did not immediately receive a response. Fox News Digital’s Taylor Penley contributed to this report.
