Summary

Kevin today addressed the notion that Ben Johnson became disinterested in the Washington job last year when he learned that Adam Peters would be drafting a quarterback instead of keeping Sam Howell. Kevin discussed Bobby Wagner missing a 2nd day of practice with an ankle injury and Joe Whitt Jr.'s comments about Marshon Lattimore's performance in Tampa. Doc Walker jumped on to preview the playoff game Saturday night against the Lions. Commanders' DT Daron Payne was a guest on the show as well.   Learn more about your ad choices.
