This is the athletic football show.

Welcome to the athletic football show.

I'm Robert Mays.

Joining me today, one of our favorite guests from

Sports Illustrated. It's Connor or. Connor, how you doing, man? I'm doing well, thanks. How are you?

I'm doing very well. Appreciate you joining us today. One of the reasons I wanted to have you on today

is that as we get toward training camp here, this is really our last show before we get into the meat

of camp. We're going to have a show come out on

Monday. People, players are already reporting. I think all veterans report on Tuesday. So our like deep

preview content begins starting next week. But I wanted to do one more show. It's kind of like a

bigger picture consideration here about the next wave of potential head coaches in the NFL. It's a question

that we get in mailbags pretty often. You know, who are the next guys that are going to be getting looked at at these jobs? Because it's good context to think about as you're watching this season. Like, who are the actual assistants that we should be keeping an eye on keeping tabs on? I have some ideas about what that list should look like. I actually asked a couple of coaches

and GMs this week about who they think should be on these lists, just to get a better sense of it.

But this is something that you pay a lot of attention to. You put a list out every year. You're

keeping a ton of tabs on this. So I wanted to get your insight on what that list, or at least part of that list, looks like,

before we get into training camp here.

Yeah, no, I appreciate it.
