Balance Amen, Football Is Back! Aaron Donald Returns, Roster-Cut Drama & NFL Power Rankings

Can we get an amen? The NFL regular season is almost here! Ed Kracz, Philadelphia Eagles beat writer for SI.com and official NFL contributor to The Balance, joins Tom Marquis for a special Tuesday drop packed with late-breaking football news. Aaron Donald is coming out of retirement and returning to Los Angeles on a one-year, $20 million deal—joining Myles Garrett on what could become the most terrifying defensive front in football. Does Donald still have enough left to dominate, and did the Rams just become the team to beat in the NFC? We’ll also discuss Colts wide receiver Keenan Allen’s arrest in Indianapolis on preliminary impaired-driving charges, what it could mean for Allen and the Colts, and why judgment must wait as the legal process unfolds. Then it’s on to the biggest preseason takeaways, winners and losers from roster cuts, the latest NFL power rankings, an Eagles report straight from the beat, and perhaps a little fantasy football before we go. The waiting is nearly over. Real NFL football returns next week—and The Balance has you covered! Donald’s return and contract have been reported. Allen was arrested on preliminary charges, with a final charging decision left to the Marion County Prosecutor’s OfficeBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-balance--6491129/support.
