The stage is set and the characters are introduced, led by a newly married and rejuvenated Tyreek Hill as he stays on pace to make NFL history as the only wide receiver to achieve 2,000 receiving yards in a single season. We also get a new look of Tua with cornrows as he seeks to continue smashing the narratives surrounding the team. Lastly, we get an insider look at Mike Mcdaniel’s genius approach to leading his team towards victory.

“Hard Knocks is a reality sports documentary television series produced by NFL Films and HBO. First broadcast in 2001, the show typically follows a National Football League (NFL) team through its training camp and covers the team's preparation for the upcoming football season. Beginning in 2021, the show has also dedicated an additional season of television to following an additional team throughout the NFL regular season.

The series depicts the personal and professional lives of players, coaches, and staff, including their family life, position battles, and even inside jokes and pranks. 

The NFL and HBO have called Hard Knocks "the first sports-based reality series" in television history.”
