Hey everyone, producer Brett here with two quick pieces of news to provide some extra context around as these stories have kind of changed and evolved in between when we discussed them on the podcast as we taped it earlier this afternoon, and as I'm publishing the full podcast tonight Wednesday evening.

0:18.0

First, Cooper Cup, who we discussed at length, along with thebo Samuel and DK Metcalf, signs a three-year extension with the Rams, 75 mil guaranteed keeping him in LA through 2026.

0:29.0

Still a great conversation about the wide receiver market and what to expect out of the Debo and DK situations, but we did discuss Cup as well, not knowing that he was about to sign that extension.

0:42.0

Second, a new wrinkle in the Dishon Watson case that broke this afternoon, Attorney Tony Busby, who represents the two dozen women filing civil suits against Watson, has now added the Houston Texans franchise as a defendant in these civil cases.

0:56.0

Busby issued a statement today in which he says, and I think this is the most interesting thing, quote,

1:01.0

1:10.0

So that's absolutely a thing to keep an eye on as that story progresses, and I would imagine as now an actual one of the 32 franchises as being implicated here,

1:30.0

1:37.0

That's it from me. Enjoy the show.

1:40.0

2:04.0

My good friend, we've been friends for a while now, Jeremy Fowler, senior reporter, senior NFL reporter for ESPN, as well as part of ESPN's invaluable NFL insider crew.

2:15.0

Jeremy, I thought about this today. How long have you and I known each other?

2:18.0

I can't, it's been a long time right since Florida.

2:20.0

Yeah, man, I think I want to say it was like we covered the same Florida games back in like 03.

2:28.0

I was, I was just graduating Florida and I was just doing freelance work and you were at the O sentinel.

2:33.0

Orlando, Orlando sent me when you were at the games, I remember like us on the sidelines.

2:37.0

Yeah, yeah, same crew was like Jeff Darlington.

2:40.0
