NFL Suspends Saints Rookie, Son of WWE Hall of Famer for Multiple Games
The New Orleans Saints will be down one of their rookie receivers for the first six games of the season.
The New Orleans Saints have suspended their rookie wideout, Brock Rechsteiner, for the first six games of the 2026 season. This decision came from the NFL, but the reason behind the suspension remains undisclosed. Rechsteiner, who stands at 23 years old, had a promising college career at Jacksonville State, where he amassed 53 receptions for 629 yards and seven touchdowns in 23 games.
Despite his talent, he will face a lengthy suspension once the Saints trim their roster to 53 players on August 30. Rechsteiner is not the only NFL-connected family member in his lineage; his WWE Hall of Fame cousin, Bronson Rechsteiner, known as Bron Breakker in wrestling, had a brief stint with the Baltimore Ravens in 2020 but was ultimately released.
Brock Rechsteiner has expressed his intention to follow in his family's footsteps, pursuing a career in professional wrestling, similar to his cousin, father, and uncle who were inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2022.
