Jeremiyah Love Injury, Joe Brady’s Adjustment Period, Guaranteed Contracts & Mailbag

from The Volume · host iHeartPodcasts and The Volume

On this episode of 3 & Out, John Middlekauff reacts to Jeremiyah Love injuring his ankle in the Cardinals’ first preseason game, discussing the latest concern and what the injury could mean moving forward. John also dives into Joe Brady and whether he could face an adjustment period in his current role. How long does it take for coaches to settle into new responsibilities, and what challenges come with making the transition at the NFL level? Plus, John takes a closer look at one of the biggest conversations in professional football: guaranteed contracts. Should the NFL move closer to the contract structures seen in other sports, and why has the league traditionally resisted fully guaranteed deals? The conversation also turns to Tom Brady’s impact on NFL broadcasting and ownership. Has Brady changed the way former players and broadcasters think about their post-playing careers? John discusses the growing intersection between media, ownership, and the business of the NFL. And of course, another edition of Dad Diaries brings stories from life away from football before John opens up the Middlekauff Mailbag to answer your questions on the biggest topics from around the league. From preseason injuries and coaching adjustments to NFL contracts, Tom Brady's influence, and much more, it's all covered on this episode of 3 & Out.
