Beltway Football Live on location Indianapolis for the scouting combine.

0:21.7

I got to hear from Dan Quinn and Adam Peters today.

0:25.1

Big man, we know that they're not going to tell us anything definitive, but I do think both coaches gave us some level of information.

0:32.3

And I think maybe bigger picture, last year they came in here as, you know, the cock of the walk, right?

that folks are going to be very excited about, you know.
