The Athletic's senior NFL insider Dianna Russini breaks down Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin's three-year extension. Chase Daniel adds his perspective on what it means for the Commanders' offense with McLaurin back on the field and how quarterback Jayden Daniels and his top target can get back up to speed quickly with Week 1 fast approaching.

James Palmer, Russini and Daniel also discuss the continued standoff between Micah Parsons and the Dallas Cowboys with their preseason now wrapped up. Parsons continues to seek a trade out of Dallas with next week's season kickoff game against the Philadelphia Eagles looming. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones continues to insist that he has a deal in place already with Parsons after speaking with the pass rusher this spring without his agent present.

Palmer, Russini and Daniel analyze the Cleveland Browns' intention to keep four quarterbacks on their final 53-man roster. Kevin Stefanski has been under scrutiny for his handling of the team's quarterback room in the Browns' preseason finale and the group reacts to Stefanski's comments about rookie Shedeur Sanders' development.

New York Giants rookie Jaxson Dart continues to impress. Chase breaks down what he has seen from the quarterback so far and why the Giants have a great problem on their hands with a rookie who is developing quickly. The trio also reacts to head coach Brian Daboll's comments about placing Dart in certain difficult situations to see if he will succeed.

Finally, our cast reminisces about their unofficial end-of-summer weekend, including Chase running a 5K and Dianna losing one of her son's favorite stuffed animals before eventually tracking it down.
