was the key in a 29-13 win on Sunday and Levi Stadium in Santa Clara, California.

Among the highlights, running back Kenneth Walker, he almost gave up on the game a

while back.

Yeah, definitely.

When a doctor told me I couldn't play anymore, I just thought football was over.

You know, that's what I was doing all my life, so it was a shocking moment.

You know, my dad worked with me throughout that whole process, and he was in a hospital

with me as well and my mom, so just going through that, it just made me grateful for each

and every day to be able to go out there and strap up and play this game, and just, you

know, still be alive for real.

And now a Super Bowl MVP, and coach Mike McDonald talked about why they won.

We're in the business of winning football games, and to win football games, you got to be

a great team.

And great teams have people from all over the place that come together, that's why football

is so special.

And you look at that locker room and what people have gone through to get to this point

in their career on this particular team.

It's a beautiful thing, man.

It's really, really powerful, really awesome.

And the fracture relationship between quarterback Aaron Rogers and coach Mike McCarthy could

be repaired.

And that means the veteran Rogers could return for a second season in Pittsburgh.

Rogers hasn't made it official that he will play in 2026 when he is 42 years old.
