Summary
BONUS EPISODE
Josh McCown spent the 2019 season as a quarterback with the Philadelphia Eagles. He was originally selected in the third round of the 2002 NFL Draft by the Arizona Cardinals after playing his college football Sam Houston State.
Josh would go on to play 17 NFL seasons with eleven different teams (Cardinals, Lions, Raiders, Dolphins, Panthers, 49ers, Bears, Buccaneers, Browns, Jets and Eagles).
In 2019, Josh backed up Carson Wentz in Philadelphia and found himself making his first ever appearance in a playoff game when he came in to relieve an injured Wentz in the Eagles loss to the Seahawks. In that game, McCown suffered a torn hamstring off the bone and continued to play an entire half with the injury.
On this episode of the podcast, Josh McCown shares a health update on his torn hamstring, getting the opportunity to play in his first ever playoff game, why he came out of retirement to play in 2019, what faith in the Eagles locker room was like and what Josh's plans are for 2020.

| 0:17.0 | Here's your host, Jason Romano. |
| 0:20.0 | Hey, everyone, welcome to Sports Spectrum. I am Jason Romano. Hey everyone, welcome to Sports Spectrum. |
| 0:22.4 | I am Jason Romano. |
| 0:23.8 | Today on the show, a little bonus episode for you. |
| 0:26.4 | We were able to talk to Philadelphia Eagles quarterback, at least at this point, Philadelphia |
| 0:32.0 | Eagles quarterback Josh McCown for an interview just a couple days ago and wanted to catch up with Josh. |
| 0:39.1 | Honestly, I wanted to catch up with him right after the season. |
| 0:42.0 | But in case you weren't paying attention to what happened to the Eagles, they played in |
| 0:47.2 | the playoffs. |
| 0:47.7 | Josh had to come in the game when Carson Wentz got hurt against the Seahawks. |
| 0:52.0 | And then Josh played through a very painful injury. He tore his |
| 0:55.8 | hamstring off the bone. That was the prognosis or diagnosis, I should say, after the game |
| 1:02.6 | when it was reviewed on what happened to him, you know, in that playoff game against the Seahawks. |
| 1:08.0 | And he tore his hamstring off the bone. And so Josh and I have |
| 1:10.9 | been communicating back and forth about trying to tape something a little more recent to that game. |
| 1:16.9 | But the more I thought about it, obviously he needed to heal up. I thought it was better in |
| 1:21.6 | retrospect to tape it when we did, which was in the middle of February and look back six weeks or so and see kind of how he's |
| 1:30.7 | feeling, how he's doing, how he's healing up. And it's interesting, if you watch on Amazon Prime, |
| 1:37.0 | there's a show called All or Nothing. And this, the latest episodes or the latest season of All |
| 1:43.8 | or Nothing features the 2019 |
| 1:45.6 | Philadelphia Eagles. |
