Scoop City: A show about the NFL

Why Joe Burrow, Shedeur Sanders starting in preseason is a BIG deal


Listen Later

The Athletics Senior NFL Insider, Dianna Russini and former NFL QB Chase Daniel break down the biggest headlines across the NFL as the first full week of preseason kicks off. Dianna is fresh off a trip to Foxborough, where she watched the New England Patriots and Washington Commanders hold a joint practice and caught up with players and coaches from both sides.


All eyes are on Cleveland, where rookie Shedeur Sanders is getting the Week 1 preseason start for the Browns. With Kenny Pickett and Dillon Gabriel sidelined by injury, Sanders is set to get extended time with the starters in a real opportunity to shake up the QB depth chart. Chase explains what coaches look for in these moments that fans might miss—and why this window could be critical for Sanders' future.


Meanwhile in Cincinnati, head coach Zac Taylor is going all in on preseason reps, announcing Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase and the Bengals' top starters will play in Thursday’s opener against the Eagles. After back-to-back seasons missing the playoffs, despite record-setting production from Burrow, the Bengals hope a stronger preseason leads to a faster start. Dianna and Chase discuss whether this high-risk strategy is the right move—and what a healthy, aggressive Burrow-led offense could mean for the AFC.


Broncos cornerback Patrick Surtain gave us his Top 5 QBs during our visit in Denver, now Chase fills out his own Top 10, and the debate begins. Find out who made the list and who was left outside the group.


Then it's onto Jacksonville, where Travis Hunter is doing something we haven’t seen in decades—playing both sides of the ball. But can it last over a full season? Not everyone is convinced, including star wideout Davante Adams. Dianna and Chase react to Adams’ comments and weigh in on whether Hunter’s versatility is sustainable in today’s NFL.
