Touchdowns and Tangents is back with this week’s NFL news headlines including Madden 2019 ratings leaked and NFL Players reaching out to the president about pardons. This week’s show is not only one of the most emotional but it is not safe for work considering all the real emotions and occasional cursing. You’ve been warned.
Otherwise, hosts Kenny and Pete also provide real talk about Jameis Winston and Keith Mumphrey allegations. They offer takes and tangents on the latest banned supplement, a World Cup of NFL players, ESPN’s the Body Issue, Aaron Donald’s workouts, odds for coaches getting fired, Martavis Bryant’s fake suspension and more.
