Player analysis
Player insights
Derrick Henry
NegativeRole3:15
Derrick Henry is identified as part of the Ravens' leadership group that must carry the franchise over the threshold to championship contention; the source notes that despite the team being labeled Super Bowl-ready for multiple years, they continue to fall short, and this is attributed to the players and leadership group not consistently delivering at the championship level.
Insight pageJared Goff
NegativeMatchup9:00
Jared Goff faces the Vikings' elite defense in week five; Brian Flores' 6-0 Vikings will bring heavy pressure and blitz schemes that Goff has faced before, requiring him to stay composed against Minnesota's aggressive defensive approach.
Insight pagePositiveMatchup9:06
Goff is one of the best quarterbacks in the business against blitzes, with completion rate, passer rating, and yards per attempt all increasing against the blitz versus coverage. The source highlights this as a key advantage against the Minnesota Vikings' aggressive defensive scheme, noting that if the Lions score 30+ points on Brian Flores' defense, it would demonstrate their offensive dominance.
Insight pagePositiveProjection11:00
Goff is the only quarterback this season with multiple games of 300+ yards, multiple touchdowns, and zero interceptions. The source suggests if he lights up the Minnesota Vikings, he should be in the MVP conversation, and notes the Lions are averaging nearly 31 points per game with Goff leading the way.
Insight pageJaylen Waddle
NegativeInjury8:28
Jalen Waddle was seen on the practice field but is officially listed as DNP in Denver; he has a chest injury not thought to be long term, but his status for the week five game against the Chiefs is very much up in the air.
Insight pageJonathan Taylor
NegativeRole7:07
Jonathan Taylor remains on the Colts roster despite trade rumors; Shane Steichen confirmed Taylor is still on the football team when asked if he had requested a trade.
Insight pageJordan Love
PositiveProjection12:48
The source notes that Jordan Love is playing really well for the Packers as they prepare to face the Panthers on Thursday night, with the team needing to bounce back after a loss to the Lions.
Insight pageJosh Allen
PositiveMatchup5:00
Josh Allen holds a 4-2 career record against Lamar Jackson including playoffs; he is coming off a bye week after a two-game road trip to L.A. and Vegas, and faces Lamar Jackson in a marquee matchup this week in Orchard Park.
Insight pageJosh Downs
NegativeRole6:42
Josh Downs has requested a trade from the Colts and did not deny the report when asked; this comes amid the Colts' fire sale that included trading Quentin Nelson and Forrest Buckner, raising questions about his future with Indianapolis.
Insight pageKirk Cousins
PositiveValue20:19
Kirk Cousins started the season with three touchdown passes in each of the first three games, making him an attractive trade piece; however, his value is contingent on offensive coordinator Clint Kubiak accompanying him in any deal, as Cousins has historically played well under Kubiak's system and may not replicate that performance without him.
Insight pageLamar Jackson
NegativeInjury0:40
Lamar Jackson was a full participant at practice for the first time since suffering a week four ankle injury; his status for Sunday's game remains uncertain despite the full participation, described as a 'definite maybe' by the source.
Insight pageNegativeRole0:46
The source notes that Lamar Jackson's health may not be the Ravens' core issue; instead, leadership and championship maturity are questioned, with the team having blown double-digit leads in back-to-back weeks against division opponents and 17 total double-digit leads since 2020, suggesting systemic team problems beyond quarterback availability.
Insight pageNegativeRole3:15
Lamar Jackson is identified as part of the Ravens' leadership group that must carry the franchise over the threshold to championship contention; the source notes that despite the team being labeled Super Bowl-ready for multiple years, they continue to fall short, and this is attributed to the players and leadership group not consistently delivering at the championship level.
Insight pageTravis Hunter
PositiveBreakout21:21
Travis Hunter recorded four receptions for 59 yards and a touchdown in London before the bye week, and had a previous breakout game in London last year against the Rams. Bucky Brooks strongly endorses buying Travis Hunter stock, citing his playmaking ability and recent defensive performance (end zone interception while traveling with number one receiver Nico Collins), indicating he is beginning to fulfill his potential as the number two overall pick and will see significantly increased opportunities moving forward.

Episode Transcript
0:00This is an iHeart Podcast. Guaranteed human. Oh, ram it.
0:03Miles still isn't ready. Coming up on the NFL Report, why Garrett still is not a go to practice in Los Angeles.
0:10Meantime in Baltimore, is Lamar Jackson's health the real issue with the Ravens or is it deeper than that?
0:16Interesting conversation in Owings Mills today that you need to hear.
0:19And do the Colts tinker and trade Taylor before the deadline?
0:22All of it next on the NFL Report. We are back in studio.
0:26Great to be here. And we are presented by Nationwide.
0:29Hi there. In Los Angeles, my name is Andrew Siciliano.
0:33Coming up next, how the Lions can beat the Vikings.
0:36Bucky Brooks will tell you that. But first, what is news to me?
0:40Our headlines right out of the gate. Let's get to Lamar Jackson for the first time since a week four ankle injury.
0:46He was a full participant at practice today. Does that mean he's going to play Sunday?
0:51I don't know. How about a definite maybe? But is his health really the Ravens issue?
0:56Or as discussed today, is it leadership after blowing double digit leads the last two weeks?
1:01Listen, we have a great locker room. We got a great bunch of guys that really, really care.
1:07We have a ton of capable leaders on our team.
1:10One of the reasons I wanted this particular job was because of the guys in the locker room and the leadership capabilities that they have.
1:17And so I think, again, me, all of us, there's things that we could have done better as players, coaches, play callers, leaders, all those things.
1:25And when stuff like that happens, the really good ones respond in the right way.
1:30And that's what I've seen, you know, obviously in the last couple of days.
1:34With Jesse, what's kind of been his message? What's kind of been his tone that he has said today?
1:40It's been a very positive tone. I mean, there's a lot of things that we know we need to get better at.
1:47But we also know that we're really close to where we want to be.
1:51And everything that we want is still in front of us.
1:54And he just wants us as the leaders on the team, the guys that have been here for a while, to, you
2:01know, just step up and really convey that message.
2:04I pride myself to be one of the leaders of this team, one of the vets.
2:09And I've been doing a good enough job as far as leading.
2:13When I talked about it being flat on the sidelines when we don't have energy or things not going the way we're
2:19supposed to, somebody has to bring that spark. Whether it's speaking or out there on the field making a play that turns everything around.
2:27All right, Bucky Brooks, let's try to figure out the Ravens.
2:30Lamar is the shiny object here. We go through this every year.
2:34Hey, he's out. They don't win. When he's going to come back?
2:37When is he practicing? All of that. How about the fact that back-to-back weeks they've blown double-digit leads against division opponents?
2:44And since 2020, Bucky, they have blown 17 double-digit leads.
2:47What's going on? You know, Bill Walsh is talking about champions behave like champions before they are champions.
2:52And when I look at the Baltimore Ravens, I do wonder if there's a leadership void.
2:57This team doesn't have what I call a championship maturity about them, meaning that they take care of business, the teams that
3:04they're better than, and they quickly get rid of them, and they don't allow these games to be tight.
3:10And people have talked about this team being Super Bowl ready the last three, four, five years.
3:15But for whatever reason, they continue to fall short.
3:18So they've changed coaches. They've done different things with the personnel.
3:21But yet and still, they still don't look like that championship team consistently.
3:25To me, that's on the players. And when we talk about the players and player-led teams, it's about the leadership group that
3:32can get this team over the hump. And right now, we're not seeing that consistently.
3:37So whether you talk about Lamar Jackson or Roquan Smith or Martin Humphrey, even Derrick Henry, those guys have to carry this team, this franchise, over the threshold.
3:45And right now, they're not getting it done from a leadership standpoint.
3:49You know, it's funny how this turned so quickly.
3:52Bucky, a couple of weeks ago in primetime on a Sunday night, they beat the Falcons that game on the road.
3:58Kyle Hamilton in the locker room afterwards, and he had the game-winning pick back at home in Atlanta where he grew up,
4:05seemingly implied that this isn't the same old Ravens.
4:08Like, we're not going to blow leads. We are going to rally on the road.
4:12And then they lay an egg twice in division games.
4:15This week, it's just the Bills on the road in Orchard Park.
4:19I mean, we can see what they're made of.
4:22This is a character game. The Buffalo Bills may not be the most talented, but the one thing that we always get
4:29from the Bills, we can get their best effort.
4:31From the Ravens, we need to see them rise up to that level and exceed it in terms of their execution, their toughness, their overall physicality.
4:39Look, there is a thing for the Ravens for so long when they talk about play like a Raven.
4:45When I was in the scouting business in the early 2000s, there was a feel about this franchise.
4:51You knew when you close your eyes and the Ravens would come to town, you knew what kind of team you were getting.
4:58We need to see the Ravens get back to being the Ravens, and that starts with the leadership demanding that they play to the standard.
5:05All right, let's get to the Bills side of things.
5:08Bucky, stay right there. I want to hit Josh Allen with what he said today.
5:13They're coming off a bye. Buffalo is, remember, they had the L.A.
5:17game and then the game in Vegas, so the two-game road trip.
5:20Josh Allen, 4-2 in his career against Lamar Jackson.
5:23That includes the playoffs. And then a year ago, they had that week one Sunday night classic in which they combined for seven touchdowns.
5:31Yeah, I think the competitor wants to go out there and compete against the best of the best.
5:36And since Lamar has entered the league, I mean, he's been one of the best, if not the best quarterback.
5:42And what he's consistently done when he's on the field is unbelievable.
5:46He's a very special player. I've got so much respect for him.
5:50He does some amazing things with the football, with his arm and his legs.
5:54So, yeah, I mean, it's obviously, that's why you play this game is to have matchups like this.
5:59And again, I'm not playing Lamar. I'm playing the defense.
6:02But, you know, everybody wants to make the deal about, you know, what quarterbacks are playing against each other.
6:08But, yeah, like I said, you have to be at the top of your game to beat the other team that has
6:15these type of quarterbacks, you know, running their program.
6:18And it's something that, you know, you live for.
6:21Yeah, he gets it. It's Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson on the marquee.
6:25In L.A., it was supposed to be Miles Garrett on the marquee, but now he's gone till November.
6:30Sean McVay says Garrett is not going to practice this week.
6:33Some had expected he would practice. Hasn't played since knee surgery after week one.
6:38Miles Garrett is staying on injured reserve. Is Josh Downs staying on the Colts?
6:42Is he the next guy out in Indianapolis? Jeremy Fowler reports the wide receiver has asked for a trade.
6:48When Downs was asked about it today, he didn't deny it.
6:51All of this comes a day after the Colts put really a for sale sign on their front lawn and they shipped
6:58out that guy, Quentin Nelson, to the Seahawks and to Forrest Buckner, back to the 49ers.
7:03Really two faces of the franchise. Shane Steichen, your thoughts.
7:06Shane, what was your message to the team today after having two of those players?
7:11Yeah, I didn't sugarcoat it. Anytime you lose those guys, they're tough to replace.
7:15But we got to understand that we're in a business and this is a business and there's tough decisions that have to be made in a franchise.
7:23And everyone's got a job to do. And we all signed up for it and we get paid to go do a job.
7:30And we got to improve and get better every single day.
7:34How does this complicate your job specifically? I'm worried about getting ready for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
7:39You know, if I focus on something else, I'm not I'm doing a disservice to our football team.
7:44Shane's Jonathan asked to be traded? No, no, I know there's stuff floating around out there.
7:49But JT's on our football team. He is on the football team.
7:53Yep. And Mike McDaniel is still on the Chargers.
7:55If you thought Jim Harbaugh was going to give up on McDaniel during the bye week, think again, not happening.
8:02He is still the play caller as the Chargers face the Rams this week in L.A.
8:06Chargers the worst offense of the NFL. They're scoring 15 points a game.
8:10And as for the defense, Derwin James not coming back, at least not anytime soon.
8:15Harbaugh says he's had a setback. Ian Rappaport says injured reserve is a possibility hamstring injury.
8:20Derwin James has not played since week three. Jalen Waddle was seen on the practice field today, but officially he is a DNP in Denver.
8:28Ian says it is a chest injury, not thought to be long term, but his status with that 425 game against the Chiefs this week.
8:35Very much up in the air. All right. Vikings, Lions.
8:38This one's good. Actually, all of week five is good.
8:41Vikings, the NFL's best scoring defense. Lions have the NFL's second best scoring offense.
8:46Dan Campbell should be fun. They understand the system.
8:49They understand where they are going to exploit you at and then where you're trying to.
8:53OK, this is where my outlet is. They take that away, too.
8:57They exploit you and then take away your outlet.
9:00They're very good at it. And they just create, you know, havoc and chaos.
9:04And inevitably what they want and have done consistently is they force you to make massive errors.
9:09It's one thing to get stops. They are forcing offenses at the end of the day.
9:14Man, it gets late. This is a tight game.
9:17And it's just wave after wave. All right, Bucky.
9:20Dan Campbell's Lions 4-2. The Vikings, the only undefeated team remaining.
9:23Brian Flores has that defense cooking. They are 6-0.
9:26Flores is going to throw any and everything he has against Jared Goff.
9:30And he has faced it before. How does Jared Goff handle it?
9:34You know, look, Jared Goff has to understand. Even though it's Halloween, he cannot be afraid of the boogeyman.
9:39And the Minnesota Vikings have certainly emerged as the boogeyman in the league with the way that they bring pressure.
9:46Last week, over 87% of the dropbacks, Daniel Jones faced pressure, five-man blitzes.
9:50Where Jared Goff is one of the best in the business against blitzes.
9:54In fact, he's one of the only quarterbacks who completion rate, passer rating, his overall yards per attempt, it increases against the blitz versus when he plays coverage.
10:02So now, the Minnesota Vikings are going to have to make a decision.
10:06Are they really going to heat Jared Goff up?
10:09Or are they going to use these simulated pressures where it looks like six are coming, but only four are coming and
10:16they have max coverage in the back end? The one thing that we know about Jared Goff, when he is in rhythm,
10:22he's one of the best to do it. Look, I'm looking forward to seeing this matchup because this is the ultimate chess
10:29match between a high-end quarterback and one of the best defensive coordinators in the league.
10:34I mean, if the Lions come out of this, Bucky, because they're averaging nearly 31 points a game, if they drop 30
10:41on Brian Flores, you would say what? I would say that the Detroit Lions have an opportunity to go without a defense.
10:47Their offense is so good that they'll be able to dictate the terms with Jared Goff leading the way.
10:53I also would say this, if Jared Goff lights up the Minnesota Vikings, he certainly has to be in the conversation as an MVP.
11:00Look, the only guy this season to have multiple games with 300-plus yards, multiple touchdowns, and zero interceptions.
11:06He's a real one. Bucky, you know what Thursday night football is tomorrow, don't you?
11:11No, what is it? It's the Bucky Brooks Bowl.
11:13It's one of Bucky's old teams against another one of Bucky's old teams.
11:17It's the Panthers and the Packers at Lambeau for the second straight year.
11:21Packers lost to the Lions, heartbreaking last week. Also lost last year at home to the Panthers.
11:27Obviously the game, review that game from last year, you know, a lot of the same coverages, principles that they do.
11:33Obviously I think they want to keep the top on as their defense and limit those explosive plays.
11:39I think, you know, you look at the stats, they've been pretty good against the pass this year.
11:44And I think the runs got them a little bit.
11:47So, you know, I think we'll have a good plan.
11:50And obviously I think from that game last year, you know, we've got to be able to score in the red zone.
11:57You know, we had, I think we talked about seven drives last year.
12:01Didn't punt one time and really just couldn't finish in the red zone.
12:05That was a huge win for the Panthers last year at Lambeau.
12:09Got them to five wins on the season. Tomorrow, no Jalen Phillips.
12:12That's big. He's got a hammy. Damian Lewis is still out.
12:16Guard, maybe their best offensive lineman has not played since a game in late September in Cleveland.
12:21Meantime, also the Packers O-line a bit banged up.
12:24Matt Schneidman, the best Packer writer in the business, by the way, not just because he went to Syracuse, tweeting your Packer injury report.
12:31The Bucky Brooks Bowl, keeping in mind that the Panthers got destroyed by the Bucks in a division game at home last week.
12:38Bucky, who bounces back? Oh, I think the Green Bay Packers bounce back because they know they need to bounce back to
12:45keep pace with the rest of the NFC North.
12:48And when I look at this Packers team, Jordan Love is playing really well for them.
12:53And when they're getting the contributions on the outside from Christian Watson and Matthew Golden, this offense can light it up.
12:59But the one missing piece for the Packers has been their rushing attack.
13:03The running game has not been what they wanted to be.
13:06And so Josh Jacobs coming back is everything. But they need Josh Jacobs, the one that was the NFL rushing champ to
13:13show up, because if he can balance out this offense, then they can pick and choose how they want to attack the defense.
13:20More importantly, they can protect the defense in the second half.
13:24They need the running game to show up because they need to be a balanced team if they're going to be a
13:30team that can be one of the last ones standing in the tournament.
13:34Are you flipping the coin tomorrow? Are they doing anything to commemorate your participation in both of these franchises?
13:40Well, look, I wish they could. I wish they would.
13:43But right now, I think the Green Bay Packers will probably get a little more of my heart because then I played there for three years.
13:51But I have love for the Panthers. No direct flights from L.A.
13:55to Green Bay or I'm just saying you should do it.
13:58But Bucky and I know no air schedules pretty well.
14:01Coming up next, is the Bears offense too good?
14:04I'll explain. I know that makes no sense. But the Bears in the spotlight as they get ready to go to Seattle straight ahead.
14:11All right. You're watching the NFL report. We told you about the Thursday night game.
14:16Let's skip ahead to the Monday night game because the Bears are back in primetime.
14:21They played Thursday a week ago. They beat the Patriots and that Caleb Williams guy looked good.
14:263-08 and a couple of touchdowns. But now Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams have to get ready for a fairly stingy Seahawks defense.
14:33Yeah, I think they do a great job affecting the quarterback.
14:36Number one up front, they've got good rushers and they're able to get and affect the quarterback without having to pressure a whole lot and passing downs.
14:45So when you're able to do that with just four rushers, I think it's really hard to get guys open with a lot of space.
14:52They're doing a phenomenal job taking away explosive plays in the passing game.
14:56And it's hard to stay on schedule consistently and march it down the field and score in the red zone on these guys.
15:03And, you know, it's hard to run the ball, hard to throw the ball.
15:08And it's going to take a team effort here to win this one this week.
15:12All right, Bucky Brooks. Only two teams in the last 20 years have given up fewer yards through seven games than the
15:19Seahawks have given up with Mike McDonald this year.
15:22Yet the Bears are leading the league in time of possession.
15:25And it's not close, like 35 minutes a game.
15:28So what gives here? Because the Bears are well rested.
15:31Yeah, the Bears are well rested. They can run the football.
15:34DeAndre Swift is going to be the bell cow for this team.
15:38But he's running to a defense that just shut down K-9.
15:41Kenneth Walker held him to 36 yards. Only gave up four yards per play to the Kansas City Chiefs, who entered the
15:48game averaging over seven yards per play. And the thing about the Seattle Seahawks, they're doing it with the Littles on the field.
15:55Meaning they are a team that last week against Kansas City Chiefs, 100% of the defensive staffs, they had nickel or dime personnel on the field.
16:03So what they do is they can outmaneuver. They can outrun you.
16:07They can beat you to the spot. And their speed and strength overwhelms you.
16:11This is going to require the Bears to be at their best.
16:15For them to move the football against maybe the best defense in football, they're going to have to dominate the line of scrimmage.
16:22And boy, it's going to be tough to do that against that front and those 11 guys that are really coming after like wild hyenas.
16:29Hey, Bucky, quick follow here. I've talked to people in Chicago that think that the time of possession thing is a bad thing.
16:37That the offense is actually getting worn down. Does that make sense to you?
16:41I mean, I can understand the number of plays, but if anything, that's what you want.
16:46Because the more your offense is on the field, the less their defense is on the field.
16:51And some teams with a creative offense coordinator like Ben Johnson, they want their offense to be their best defense by playing keep away.
16:58So to me, I feel like the Bears are playing complimentary football by keeping their offense on the field and minimizing the exposure toward the defense.
17:06Bears have the number one run game in the NFL, and that is the definition of a first world problem.
17:12We're on the field so much. We're tired. Bucky don't go anywhere.
17:16Baker Mayfield barely got tired last week as he barely threw the ball last week.
17:21Seven of 11. That's it. And yet the Bucks put a 40 burger on the Panthers.
17:26This week, it's your Baker revenge game. 2026 edition.
17:28Kevin Stefanski's Falcons are coming to town. Your former coach Kevin Stefanski is on the other sideline.
17:34I don't know if he's talked to you at all or is sending any good luck notes, but what does his familiarity
17:40with you or you with him have anything to do with this game at all?
17:45No, I haven't spoken to him since 2021. Does that still eat you a little bit?
17:50No, I'm doing all right. I love it. All right.
17:53Go back to February when Stefanski, remember he had been fired in Cleveland, got the job in Atlanta.
17:58D Orlando Ledbetter, legendary writer there for the AJC wrote this story and took shots a kind of at Baker with the tweet.
18:06Baker fired back, not necessarily at Stefanski more like at D, but it looked like he was firing at Stefanski.
18:12I don't know. Bucky Brooks, the best Baker is salty and angry Baker.
18:16Let's do buy or deny Bucky Brooks. The question is the Bucks are two and five.
18:21They're only one game back in the win column here.
18:24The Bucketeers will win the NFC South Bucky by or deny?
18:27Deny, deny, deny, deny. The guy that Baker may feel has a little bit of a issue with is going to lead his team to the division title.
18:36That's Kevin Stefanski. I love their talent on offense, particularly when Michael Penix is back at quarterback.
18:41He's utilizing all of the weapons, Drake London, Cal Pitts, but the running game with the Robinsons, B.
18:46John Robinson, Brian Robinson running effectively between the tackles.
18:49To me, the Atlanta Falcons are the most balanced team offensively and defensively of the group.
18:54That's why they're going to be the team that wins the division.
18:58Are the Buccaneers if they lose this game? And this isn't scripted here, Bucky, but roll with me.
19:03Are they sellers potentially in a week? I mean, I guess you have to have assets that people want to buy.
19:10I don't know if they have enough assets that people want to purchase, but I do believe the situation is critical if they don't win.
19:17For Todd Bowles and company, the seat is already hot.
19:20There's a lot of conversation about job status. The Buccaneers need to win to get back into the hunt.
19:26And for some of that conversation to dive down a little bit down in Tampa.
19:31All right. Interesting. Let's get, I also find this one interesting, to Fernando Mendoza, who has played in three games.
19:37But this past Sunday, Kirk Cousins came out and said, Hey, if it's time to make a move, let the best man play quarterback.
19:44We got the Raiders and the Jets this week, Bucky.
19:47The game is in New York. Buy or deny?
19:50The Raiders should play Fernando Mendoza this week. Denied.
19:53Not quite yet. Continue to let Kirk Cousins play, because Kirk Cousins is playing really well.
19:58And this is what we anticipated a little bit.
20:01Those who know how he plays under Clint Kubiak, you thought that Kirk Cousins would be able to play well.
20:07And he's throwing the ball all over the yard.
20:10They don't have a lot of weapons on the outside.
20:13At some point he will give the ball to Fernando Mendoza.
20:16I just think there's still a flicker, a sliver of hope for the Raiders to kind of get back in this hunt.
20:23Until then, I'm a ride with the veteran. And when they're out of it, then I hand it over to Mendoza to get some experience.
20:30I mean, and I'll tie this back to the trade deadline.
20:34If they do decide to make a move, and there are no indications they are right now.
20:39I mean, Kirk Cousins, the way he started the season, three touchdown passes in each of the first three games, they're right out of the gate.
20:47I mean, to me, that's an attractive trade piece.
20:50Very attractive. But do you get Clint Kubiak to come with him?
20:53Because Kirk Cousins has always played well under Kubiak.
20:56I doubt it. I don't think that's part of the deal.
21:00If you don't get the play caller to go with him, I don't know if you're going to get the same Kirk Cousins that we've seen.
21:08All right, Bucky, you know the Jaguars, and you were there when Travis Hunter, before the buy two weeks ago, went for
21:14four for 59 and had a touchdown. Last year in London, he had a breakout game there as well in the loss against the Rams.
21:22He should just move to London and do this full-time.
21:25Buy or deny, Travis Hunter will be more involved after this past game in London moving forward.
21:30Oh, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy. Yes, I'm buying all of the Travis Hunter stock.
21:35And the reason why, Andrew, you've been around enough coaches.
21:38You know what coaches like? They like guys who make plays.
21:41And every time I looked up in London and saw number 12 on offense, he was making plays.
21:47So to me, that means he's going to get more opportunities to make plays.
21:51We also saw on the defense was out of the ball.
21:55People have been asking, hey, is he going to travel with the number one receiver?
21:59So they finally let him travel with Nico Collins.
22:02And what did he do? He got an end zone interception.
22:05He's beginning to look like everything that people thought he would be as the number two overall pick.
22:11So, yes, we're going to see more Travis Hunter.
22:14I can't say how much, but we're going to see a lot more because guys like playmakers, and he is definitely the quintessential playmaker on the Jacks.
22:22You can't say how much because you don't know or you can't say how much because you do know and you can't tell us.
22:29I don't know. I don't know. I just know guys make plays.
22:33You put them on the field. Bucky Brooks, Jaguars broadcaster.
22:36We thank you, Bucky. Don't go anywhere. Coming up next on the NFL report, another honor for Gronk.
22:41This one is real. This one is back in Foxborough.

23:08Some other stories from around the National Football League.
23:11David Bailey, five and a half sacks. Pretty good.
23:14Yeah. The rookie is dealing with a groin injury.
23:17Was not on the practice field today for the Jets as they get ready for a Sunday game in MetLife against the Raiders.
23:24Also not on the practice field today. Jared in Cleveland.
23:27It's a knee injury. Todd Munkett did not seem too concerned on the podium.
23:31Said there's some swelling and they decided to hold him out of practice.
23:35Verse should, for now, be good to go for the Browns.
23:39Huge game Sunday, one o'clock in Pittsburgh against the Steelers.
23:42So Harrison Butker's been having some issues. What did Andy Reid do today?
23:46He brought in Justin Tucker, the former all pro Ravens kicker, hasn't played in the league since 2024.
23:51He served a 10 game suspension for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy after allegations of sexual misconduct.
23:57When last we saw Justin Tucker in Baltimore. Congratulations, Gronk being inducted into the Patriots Hall of Fame.
24:02That's coming up not this week, but next week when the Patriots are at home.
24:07We have time, ladies and gentlemen, for one more thing before we go.
24:11Do you have a favorite sports show? I do.
24:14I mean, other than the NFL show. So put the NFL shows aside.
24:18My favorite non NFL show is one that man hosts inside the NBA.
24:22Ernie Johnson today with a heartfelt video announced this is it.
24:25Final season doing the inside NBA with Chuck and Shaq and Kenny.
24:29He's 70 years old. He is he is stepping aside, still going to do the final four of the tournament and stuff like that.
24:36But we will miss Ernie because that show is the best show.
24:40This show is trying to be that. We'll see you tomorrow.
24:43I'm Andrew Siciliano. See you. This is an I heart podcast guaranteed human.
