0:05.3

It is you better you bet.

0:06.2

I'm Femmy and Bev Faye hanging with you guys this afternoon.

0:08.7

20 minutes from now, we'll be joined by Nick Costos with his thoughts on Jordan Love and the Packers.

0:13.1

Jordan Love set to undergo a procedure later on this afternoon on his left thumb, banged his left thumb on a scramble Saturday night in their preseason game against New York Jets.

0:24.5
