| 1:02.5 | Adam Azer here. He's coming to Connecticut. Hey, he I Adam Ben Gretchen out in Washington state. Hey, Ben. How's it going? |
| 1:11.5 | Oh, it's I'm glad you asked. Thank you for asking. It could not be much better right now because every time I make even the tiniest commissioner mistake. |
| 1:20.5 | I know I'm going to hear about it the next day on the show from Heath. Heath made like 15 big mistakes as commissioner last night. And I just I can't wait to go through the comedy of errors. |
| 1:33.5 | What? Thank you, Heath for giving us such great content on the show. I don't know what you're talking about. I think you do. I think you do. All right. More of that in a moment. The big news. |
| 1:44.5 | Oh, can we just stop with the Zeke stuff already. Can you look at this be the end? Six years 90 million 50 million guaranteed. Heath, why were you going to take Christian McCaffrey over to Zekio Elliott in the team that we shared last night in a non PPR league? |
| 1:58.5 | I have 47 fantasy football teams this year and several of them have Zeke and zero of them have Christian McCaffrey. And when I have somebody ranked as a consensus top four pick. |
| 2:12.5 | I don't really like the idea of having zero percent exposure to them over all of my teams because what if they're the best player in fantasy this year? That would suck. I don't have any of them. I guess so. I guess so. |
| 2:23.5 | Ben, you haven't talked about a Zekio Elliott. What are we thinking for a week one? Are we going to be able to play him week one? |
| 2:29.5 | Yeah, I mean, you probably got a plan. It's a great match up. They're going to be in positive game script. I do think he could get limited a little bit if they get out ahead and they could just go with Tony Pollard. But yeah, I would. |
| 2:41.5 | I feel comfortable plugging them in. So what we have a tweet. Heath about his potential game one workload, not been, but Zekio Elliott's game one workload. |
| 2:49.5 | Yeah, I think Ben's workload. Ben's a full go this week. I expect him to play one on. He's just like Chris Godwin. He will never come off the field. |
| 2:58.5 | No, Jane Slater from the NFL network. And she's had a lot of information on this story. |
| 3:04.5 | Said that ahead of Zekio Elliott's first practice since June. I'm told the plan right now is about 20 to 25 reps on Sunday. Tony Pollard behind him. |
| 3:14.5 | And Jimmy's all the while lay as your best blitz pickup guy on third down. That's things can always change. But this is the plan heading into today. |
| 3:23.5 | Now the interesting word there assuming we're taking this report as if like it's something Jason Garrett said. |
| 3:30.5 | Reps. |
| 3:32.5 | Right. 20 to 25 reps. |
