You don't want it, you don't need it, but you're going to get it anyway.

The Kevin Sheehan Show, here's Kevin.

0:10.5

From 42 yards out, hers it, Y, missed it to the left.

0:26.3

No points for Washington. Well, that kick by Dustin Hopkins,

0:32.0

Sunday against the Chiefs, it turns out that was his last field goal attempt, his last kick,

0:38.1

period, because he didn't score even a touchdown after that missed field goal the rest of the way.

0:38.8

That's it.

The stunning news as we start this podcast this morning is that Dustin Hopkins has been waived by the team, cut by the team.

0:56.3

And Chris Blewett, who they had on the practice squad two weeks ago, then cut him from the practice squad, then re-signed him yesterday to the practice squad. They have now signed him to the main roster. This is what happens, and this is why

1:01.8

I love doing the podcast. I love doing the podcast, period. Love doing it. But it's great to have

1:08.1

the opportunity after the radio show to also, you know, do a show with typically information that breaks because it happens all the time after the radio show ends and the podcast begins.

1:22.4

And I'll be honest, this one blows me away.

1:26.4

I am shocked that they actually released Dustin Hopkins.

1:30.7

Now, a 42-yarder, that is hurtful to a coaching staff. Like, if he had missed a 55-yarder,

1:37.9

I wonder whether or not he'd still be the kicker. He missed a 42-yarder. That is a chip shot

1:42.8

up here in this league as coach Joe would say, you can't miss a 42-yarder. That is a chip shot up here in this league, as Coach Joe would say, you can't miss a 42-yarder.

1:47.3

And that was really a momentum killer as well. I know they lost the game 31-13, and they weren't going to win that game, even if he had made that field goal. But that field goal would have kept the momentum going. It would have built a 16 to 10 lead in that game.

2:03.0

And at that moment, Kansas City had just been self-destructing offensively.

2:08.0

And it was as if that was a big boost to them, and they took over and they ran off 21 unanswered and won the game 31-13. Again, you know, a defense that gives up what they

2:20.0

gave up, an offense that is struggling to move the football against a bad defensive team.

2:25.1

It wasn't more likely than not going to win that game, but I guarantee you that that was the
