John dives into the pre-season and what this period before the start of the season really means for the coaching staff, starters, and fringe players. John discusses the pressures for players on the bubble and rookies getting a taste of the NFL for the first time and how nervous they can be and how the mindset of playing for yourself and playing for the team is different between the preseason and the regular season.

Next, John reacts to the news that Chargers star LT Rashawn Slater will be out for the season with a leg injury.

Finally, John is back with a new "Fugazi Friday."
