All right, joining me right now is my old friend Stephen Specter.

Stephen used to be a producer at 980 as a younger guy.

13, 14 years now is the program director out in Kansas City for the leading sports talk radio station 965 FM.

Steven's an on-air talent as well.

And he's making time, not a lot of time, because I told him I'd keep him for just a short amount of time

because he's at the Big 12 basketball tournament right now.

But he has stepped up to the concourse level and is going to share

his thoughts on Leo Channal signing with Washington. So let's start with that. What's Washington

getting in Leo Channal? They got a three-down linebacker who does a lot of things, can also

play special teams. He's a guy that Steve Bagnola loved to use in a lot of different settings,

whether it was rushing the passer and coverage, very good on first and second down against the run.

They kind of got a jack-of-all-crayed fan-favor linebacker and Leo Channot.

Fan-favor, why do you think that he didn't re-sign in Kansas City?

Why didn't they fight to keep him?

You know, I think after a 6 and 11 season, after 7th Street, you know,

AFC championships and Super Bowl appearances,

I think the chiefs are in the mold of turning over the roster

and not continuing to keep the guys that are currently on it. And they're in a little bit of a cost-saving situation. And I know he didn't get a ton of money, but $8 million for a luxury linebacker is not where the chiefs are at right now. I know they would have liked to have kept him. I know Steve Spagnola would have loved to have kept him as well, but this is probably just

one of those situations where the chiefs are at as opposed to where the player is at.

You know, Washington has flipped their two coordinators.

They've got a new offensive coordinator, David Blow, Cliff Kingsbury's gone.

They hired Durante Jones from
