| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody, sorry about that. |
| 0:07.2 | Welcome to another episode of Purple Insider, Matthew Collar here. |
| 0:11.3 | And thank you all for checking in. |
| 0:13.3 | The show is always presented by Fanduel. |
| 0:16.5 | In just a moment, Manny Hill is going to drop in and we will do our typical pick the schedule, |
| 0:24.3 | but wanted to start out with the update from TCO Performance Center today, which is number |

| 1:34.2 | TJ Edwards, they're a key linebacker. Those two guys did not practice. But DJ Moore was limited. |
| 1:41.0 | And when Moore was asked today, this is via Courtney Cronin, when he was asked if he is |
