| 0:00.0 | Texting and data rates may apply. I don't want to start unless I'm the best option. |
| 0:27.1 | And I told, you know, Clint, that best players should play. |
| 0:31.4 | But I do think Fernando is going to be a great addition to our team. |
| 0:34.0 | I think he's going to have a great future in the league. |
| 0:36.7 | You know, I have no problem, you know, being a voice in the room to kind of help him. |
| 0:41.1 | Now, back to you better you bet, with Nick Costos on Westwood One Sports. |
| 0:46.9 | The voice of new Raiders quarterback and the finesse God, GAWD, Kirk Cousins, |
| 0:56.8 | at his introductory press conference in Vegas. |
| 1:02.8 | So just in case anyone was wondering, you know, maybe the Raiders trade the number one pick. |
