This is the athletic football show.

Welcome to the athletic football show.

I'm Robert Mays.

Joining me today is my good friend Lindsay Jones.

How are you? I think we need to point out to everybody, Robert, but not only am I joining you today,

I am sitting just a couple feet away from you in person. A couple feet away from me at the new beautiful

dolphins facility just outside of Hard Rock Stadium. I want people to know that

this is a better setup than some of the other ones that we've had over the last couple of weeks

because we're inside, which is very nice. I want to thank the dolphins are giving us this space.

But it is raining so hard outside Miami right now that we can hear it on the roof. I'm wondering

if people are going to be able to hear it when they listen to this podcast. But that is Florida in early August. That's what you're getting. One of the features of this beautiful building is that it has a metal roof. And I was just over in a different part of the facility. And it is very loud.

He and I had a great conversation. We're going to play that for you guys a little bit

later. But we're going to be talking about the players that we feel have the most at stake in the

NFL this season. It's the start of training camp, pretty much the start of training camp.

I feel like it's a good time to remind people what is hanging in the balance for some of these guys.

Yeah, I think so. And in training camp,

especially, because this is a time where a lot of guys are either going to make the team. They're

not going to make the team. Most of the guys we're going to talk to talk about today are star players.

They're guys that you know, but they're guys that are coming into a contract year, a guys that are

potentially in a position battle or a guy that are really setting themselves

up for the future. And there's a couple big ones that we watched here today.

So I want to start, though, with a guy that would have been at the top of this list because

inevitably during this time of year, we're going to have to catch up on news. That's going to be
