This week on In the Trenches, presented by Meijer, Edwards talks some football by recapping spring ball and looking ahead to the upcoming season. Then, he shares his reaction to the incredible opportunity to become the fourth Wolverine to grace the cover of this video game franchise, which is returning this summer for the first time in more than a decade.
