Summary

Doctors from the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine provided Thursday the type of update on Damar Hamlin we've all been hoping for since Monday night. That takes precedence on this Week 18 preview episode of The Athletic Football Show. After that, Robert Mays and Nate Tice dig into final week of the regular season and the playoff picture. It all gets going on Saturday, with the Jaguars and Titans playing for the AFC South crown, and continues through to Sunday night, where the Packers will be playing the Lions in what could be a play-in game for the final spot in the playoffs on the NFC side of the bracket.
