It is the day after the Super Bowl! Pop star Usher headlined the halftime show and Taylor Swift was in the stadium cheering on the Kansas City Chiefs, continuing her streak of giving the NFL a big bump this season. Elamin is joined by Kathleen Newman-Bremang and David Dennis Jr. for a post Super Bowl reaction, their assessment of where the NFL’s image sits in the pop realm right now and how they're feeling after Beyoncé's surprise country album announcement.
