| 0:00.0 | All right. NFL buy or sell all of our NFL conversation on this show is presented by Paramount Plus. |
| 0:08.3 | You can't count on much, but you can always count on Sundays with the NFL on CBS and Paramount Plus. |

| 0:26.3 | If you want to weigh in with what you're buying NFL-wise, a team, a player, what you're |
| 0:32.8 | selling NFL-wise, 301-230980. |
| 0:37.3 | So watching Monday night football, I had the Bengals plus seven and a half. How did that work out? Not so well. But the player that I came away most impressed by in the game is I think a player that most NFL fans know, but I think the casual NFL fan does not really |
| 0:59.3 | know how good Nick Benito is. The edge rusher, the out's the linebacker, edge rusher for the |
| 1:08.2 | Denver Broncos. Denver's defense is really good. And remember, Washington |
| 1:12.5 | plays Denver, a Sunday night game later in the season. Nick Benito is not going to win |

| 2:22.2 | offseason, extending him four years beyond his rookie deal because they did not have a fifth |
| 2:28.6 | year option on Benito. He was drafted in the second round out of Oklahoma in 2022. But Nick Benito, for those |
| 2:37.2 | who don't know, he has become a pass rushing star, not namewise with the T.J. Watson, the |
| 2:45.4 | Miles Garrets and the T. Hendricksons and the Micah Parsons, et cetera, but he's going to become a household name this year |
