Toronto Blue Jays Pitcher Trey Yesavage Kicks Off Rogers Screen Break School Program - Rogers Communications (NYSE:RCI)

Rogers' Screen Break program aims to reduce youth screen time, with Canadian teens averaging 5.2 hours daily on phones, exceeding pediatric guidelines, officials said.

  • On Jan. 28, 2026, Rogers Communications kicked off its Screen Break national school program at Toronto Metropolitan University’s Mattamy Athletic Centre with Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Trey Yesavage speaking to hundreds of students about healthy screen use and active living.
  • Earlier this month, Rogers announced the Screen Break program built on four pillars: parental tools, youth programming, research & partnerships, and education & advocacy.
  • Athletes including George Springer, Connor McDavid and others helped launch the program with videos, while Rogers will issue grants to up to four youth organizations and partner with the Dais at TMU and YMCA.
  • Yesavage told students `I'm thrilled to be back in Toronto to connect with young people about building a healthier, balanced relationship with their screens,` and Rogers directs families to Rogers.com/screenbreak for resources.
  • Framing the initiative, Rogers Communications said it's "thrilled to work with Trey and other athletes to inspire young people to adopt healthy digital habits," using partner athletes and on-air talent in social media and advertising.
