Summary
Ben kicks things off discussing the NFL announcing today that there will be no combine in Indianapolis this year. The combine of 2021 will be held and individual pro days only and Ben says the combine itself has become less important over the years, but the NFL cannot be happy about losing viewership. Ben also dives into the Mets GM Jared Porter being under fire after reports came out today saying he sent inappropriate pictures to a reporter back in 2016.
