Hey, everybody, welcome to another episode of Purple Insider, Matthew Collar here and got a

special interview for you with Carolina Panthers reporter, Mike Kay, who I've probably

mentioned on the show a good 15 times over the last couple of weeks in regards to his reporting

on Adam Thielen. So that is coming up in just a second. And then after we hear from Mike Kay,

I've got Michael Clay. So I've got Mike Kay and Mike Clay from ESPN's projections on Adam

Thielen. If you guys follow the fantasy football world, Mike Clay does an incredible job of keeping up with every single depth chart in the NFL and projections for every single player, which is wild.

If you go to just type in Mike Clay ESPN projections or PDF and what will come up is he's got

everybody. He's got how many catches we think that Ben Yuricek is going to have or how many

tackles Elijah Williams going to have. It's a great thing that he keeps running all the time. And so I

had checked in with Mike earlier this offseason to talk

about J.J. McCarthy projections. And I wanted to circle back after camp what he thinks of where

Adam Thielen will finish up the season in terms of receptions, what that will mean for the rest of

the offense. So I've got Mike Clay's projections and then also Micah Parsons

contract details, which we talked about a little bit last night of, well, what's this going to look

like when you make Micah Parsons the highest paid player at his position in the NFL, highest paid

non-quarterback. And the details, I think, are very, very interesting and a little bit non-packers-like.

So that's going to come up later in the show as well.

And let me get you also the Fandul question of the day before Mike Kay, which is, all right,

I'm sure you're shocked to hear this.

But Micah Parsons is the favorite on

Fandul for defensive player of the year.

If it is not Micah Parsons, who wins defensive player of the year?
