The Punt Return NFL Podcast

We're back again! Well, kinda...

The 2021 NFL season is nearly upon us and new father Josh Wye has taken some time off to be with the family so this season Nick is joined by former radio announcer and avid NFL fan, Ryan Lepore, to go through the ins and outs of NFL 2021-22.

Here we take a look at the 2021 NFL Season, touching on the division winners, and some potential NFL Playoff predictions and the NFL Player Award season.
