Summary

Arizona Cardinals GM Steve Keim tells Rich Eisen how the team used comedian Frank Caliendo and Country star Blake Shelton to recruit JJ Watt to Arizona, if future Hall of Famer Larry Fitzgerald will return for another season, the challenge of scouting draft prospects without an NFL Combine, and his thoughts on former Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians winning the Super Bowl with the Buccaneers. NFL Lineman-turned-Actor Matthew Willig and Rich discuss the greatness of his late USC roommate Junior Seau, winning a Super Bowl with the Rams in ’99, his favorite moments being coached by Steve Mariucci on the 49ers, what it’s like portraying Andre the Giant on the new NBC sitcom ‘Young Rock,’ and that time he introduced himself to Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in a gym and what Hall of Famer Reggie White said to him that almost made him cry.  The hour wraps up with Call Screener Adam (ad die-hard Chicago fan) giving props to one of his all-time favorite Bulls player and if the team should retire Derek Rose’s number.  Learn more about your ad choices.
