The NFL schedule for next season was released on Wednesday, and over the past few years, teams have gotten creative on social media with how they reveal their individual slate of games.
Wednesday night featured Minecraft, memes, drawings, action figures and so many more ways to promote the schedule. But the Arizona Cardinals might take the cake for the best schedule release and former Alabama standout linebacker Mack Wilson Sr. led the way.
Wilson wrote and recorded an original song called "18 Bars," which represents the 18 weeks of the regular season. Wilson raps throughout the music video and goes by the name "Rocketship."
After two years with the Patriots, Wilson signed a three-year deal with the Cardinals in March 2024. The 27-year-old's 75 tackles last season were his most since his rookie year in 2019 and he also added seven quarterback hits, five pass breakups, four tackles for loss, three sacks and a fumble recovery.

May 15, 1954: Butch Avinger, who was quarterback at Alabama, a first-round selection in the 1951 NFL Draft and played fullback and punter as a professional, retired from the New York Giants. He signed on to be an assistant coach for Red Drew with the Crimson Tide.
“Alabama has added wings to the wishbone offense and the defense stands as tall as a Redwood Forest."
–– The Voice of the Crimson Tide, John Forney, about the 1973 team.
